Top Free Agents Still Available on Day 2


The signings have come fast and furious since Monday's 6:00pm ET opening of the free agency frenzy. But there are still a few big-name players that have yet to be snagged. Here are the top names still available as of Tuesday afternoon (note: for these purposes, we won't include Kawhi Leonard, who is widely expected to re-sign with the Los Angeles Clippers):

John Collins (Restricted):

The Atlanta Hawks power forward boosted his earning power big-time this season, helping lead the Hawks to the Eastern Conference Finals. It was thought his re-signing with Atlanta was a given, but that's not such a sure thing at this point.

Teams with interest in stealing him from the Hawks include the Dallas Mavericks, Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs and New York Knicks.

Reggie Jackson (Unrestricted):

The mercurial guard made his presence known big-time in the playoffs this season for the Los Angeles Clippers, hitting a number of huge shots when they needed it most. 

According to reports, the Boston Celtics have been rumored to be very interested in the 31-year-old, but have some competition from the New York Knicks, New Orleans Pelicans and Denver Nuggets. 

Dennis Schroder (Unrestricted):

The Los Angeles Lakers' point guard turned down an $84 million offer from the Lakers earlier this season, and is looking for somewhere in the $100 million dollar range. At this point, that could be a pipe-dream for Schroder, though the New York Knicks are said to have interest, and they do have the money to spend. 

Other names of note still available include Kelly Oubre Jr., Reggie Jackson and Laurie Markkanen. (Spencer Dinwiddie is on the verge of signing with the Washington Wizards).
