4 unanswered questions that remain after a chaotic start to the offseason. 

The 2021 NBA offseason got off to a crazy start. On NBA Draft night, the Los Angeles Lakers made a splashy deal to acquire Russell Westbrook, Ben Simmons was on the trade block, and there was a sense of unknown regarding Damian Lillard’s future with the Portland Trail Blazers.

Nevertheless, the offseason is not even a month old and there are so many interesting aspects that will lead to conversation through the start of the 2021-22 season. That said, even with the fireworks that have already been launched, there are still a few other unanswered questions that remain heading into the dog days of summer.
