Well, we're through the first night of the NBA's 2025 free agency period (on the East Coast, at least) and there's been some pretty decent activity, though it took a little longer than usual for the ball to get rolling.

From big man depth to the New Orleans Pelicans, here are the early winners and losers of early NBA free agency.

The Lakers lost Dorian Finney-Smith in free agency, and haven’t replaced him on the wing. Finney-Smith played with Luka Doncic in Dallas, and is the exact type of 3-and-D wing who can succeed off Luka and LeBron James. So that’s a big hole on the roster.
