NBA rumors: Carmelo Anthony open to Rockets or Cavs trade; Gordon Hayward timetable

Check out the latest NBA free agency and trade rumors on Carmelo Anthony, Gordon Hayward, George Hill and more.

Free agency began at 12:01 a.m. on Saturday, ushering in the first day of the league’s new Collective Bargaining Agreement.

The weekend kicked off with a bang when Paul George was traded to the Thunder and Stephen Curry and Blake Griffin signed new max contracts with their respective teams. Gordon Hayward is still on the open market. But stars like Carmelo Anthony could still be on the move through trade. 

Don't forget: Free agents can agree to deals but cannot sign contracts until July 6 at 12:01 p.m Eastern, when the NBA's moratorium period ends.
