Tyler Conway

After a flurry of moves the first two days of free agency, things began quieting down on Tuesday.

Only a handful of deals were agreed upon as the churn slowed to a crawl, with the biggest news of the day actually being Donovan Mitchell's three-year, $150.3 million contract extension with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Here is a look at the latest deals signed over the last 24 hours, along with an updated outlook for each team's cap situation.

Tuesday, July 2 NBA Contract Signings

Wednesday, July 3 NBA Contract Signings

(Note: These numbers are via Spotrac and are based on their "projected practical cap space" model. The actual cap space availability per team will vary and will not be finalized until the start of the league year on July 6. Teams listed in bold are over the salary cap.)

While there will undoubtedly be several more moves in the coming days, it's starting to feel as if the NBA got most of its business done ahead of the Independence Day holiday so most team execs and agents can spend time with their families.

It's unlikely we'll see any major breaking news on Thursday, but teams looking to finalize their situations could ramp up the aggression on Friday to get their ducks in a row before the league year starts.

The Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors and Philadelphia 76ers are among the teams that could be aggressive in the coming days trying to improve their roster. Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen is the top prize remaining on the trade market, but Utah has reportedly set an exorbitant price for its 27-year-old All-Star.
