Ahead of the 2019 NBA Draft and Free Agency period, we explore the five biggest ‘what ifs’ of the impending off-season

Even though we’re still in the midst of the first-round of the 2019 NBA Playoffs, the NBA Draft and Free Agency period is still not too far off where we can already begin to feel how – and see – how landscape changing it could be in just a few months.

And it’s not even just the whispers or rumors that have been reported over the last few weeks and months. When there are this many high-level, big-name free agents set to hit the open market, there’s almost definitely going to be some level of shift among the NBA’s elite – whether it’s in the Western or Eastern Conference, or both.

Couple the potential craziness that could go on in July with the fact that there’s a good chance we could see Anthony Davis traded during the summer too, and that another generational talent – perhaps the best NBA Draft prospect since LeBron James – is in this year’s draft too and you can’t help but think this summer could be one for the history books.

Between the NBA Draft and Free Agency, let’s take a look at the biggest “what if” scenarios that could go a long way in changing the landscape of the entire NBA.
