10 top puzzles that have not yet signed in the free market: Westbrook was cheated, and one person averaged 24 points per game, no one wanted it
4:33pm, 2 September 2025Basketball
With the deepening of the offseason, the operations of each team have basically been completed, and the rosters of many teams are full. It is even said that after the Bucks recently signed Antetokounmpo, their roster has one more person, and the team still needs to consider who to lay off or who to trade. But now it's September, and there are still some outstanding players in the free market who still haven't received a contract. Let's see who else is in the free market.
Westbrook
Westbrook was definitely cheated by the King. After the free market was opened, the King contacted Westbrook and expressed his interest in him. The two sides also reached an oral agreement. As a result, the Kings were reluctant to trade the quota for the lineup to sign Westbrook. There were still teams who were interested in Westbrook before, but they were probably rejected by Westbrook. After all, he agreed to the King. Judging from the current situation, the team may not sign him until the beginning of next season.
Peton Jr.
The next few players were all players who were deflated by Cumingga. In fact, Westbrook was also a victim. Payton Jr. had previously jumped out of the contract, but he did not want to leave the Warriors, but planned to renew his contract with the team. However, due to Cumingga, the Warriors have never dared to sign him. After all, if there was no sufficient salary space, other teams would take advantage of the situation to snatch Cumingga away. If it weren't for the verbal agreement, such an outstanding player as Payton would have found his next home.
Horford
Horford also reached an oral agreement with the Warriors, and the treatment given by the Warriors is quite good. It is reported that it is to give a mini middle class and a starting position. The second year is still a player option contract. The Warriors are full of sincerity, but because of Kumingga, Horford is still in the free market. It is not that there are no teams interested in him, but Horford wants to go to the Warriors, wait. If you lean on this, I don’t know how many people will stick to it.
Sescurry
Sescurry heard that he had reached a verbal agreement with the Warriors. It is still unknown whether the news is accurate or not, but he is a top scorer and has great experience. Logically speaking, it is still possible to be a substitute rotation for a team. After all, his scoring ability is excellent, but he has not signed a contract yet. It is probably related to the Warriors. His playing style is very similar to his brother Curry. In this case, he can lead the team forward as a role on the bench.
Melton
Melton is also related to the Warriors. Playing for the Warriors last season has given Melton more attention and recognition. He was sent away by the Warriors after suffering a serious injury. He now wants to prove that he has not been defeated by injuries. Melton's playing style is very consistent with the Warriors system. He can serve as the backcourt leader and have space to handle the ball. It is simply an excellent choice for the No. 2 position, but it is estimated that if he and Curry sign the Warriors, it will be a basic salary contract.
Kuminga
After talking about the above people who were delayed by Kuminga, let's talk about the main players. According to US media reports, Kuminga has now started to compromise. He is willing to return to the Warriors, but he needs to have a player option. The Warriors did not agree, and they are still consuming it now. To be honest, this is not good for both sides. If Kuminga really doesn't want to stay in the team, he simply needs to exchange for a one-year qualification contract for free. He averages 16 points per game, has excellent talent, but does not conform to Kerr's system and cannot be reused.
Camelen Thomas
This person was just given a two-year contract of 28 million. He averaged 24 points last season. No matter what you say, you should give a contract of 20 million average price, right? But the Nets just didn't give it to them. They chose 5 young players in the offseason. The purpose of the team was to train young rookies. They didn't want to give Thomas another chance. They were willing to let Thomas try to join other teams. However, the team was not interested in him yet, and probably felt that it was too high.
Grimes
He is similar to Kumingga and Thomas. He wants a big contract, but the team cannot give it. After joining the 76ers last season, he also averaged 20+ per game. Grimes used to play in 3D, and he is a very good puzzle. Even if he is not trained as a core in the future, he can still serve as the core wing of the team. I heard that he has reached a verbal agreement with the 76ers, and both parties may sign a contract with an average salary of more than 20 million.
Joshgidi
Gidy wanted a big contract of 150 million in the offseason, but the Bulls just refused to give it. To be honest, he is worth so much, but the Bulls are used to saving money. Since being cheated by Lavin's big contract, the Bulls are very cautious about their maximum salary. He also reached an oral agreement with the team, which may end up being a contract with an average salary of about 20 million. Gidy is worth such a big contract. Although the defense is not good, he can support an offensive system.
Brogden
It is indeed surprising that Brogden did not get a contract. After all, he still has a lot of oil in the fuel tank, and he has very good combat power. He has both ball and no ball ability, and is also great in defense and passing. The key is that he has a lot of experience. I think the main reason why he did not get a contract may be because his asking price is too high. Many teams want to give a basic salary. He wants a middle-class contract, so he can't find the next one. Having said that, what do you want to say about these 10 players? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
