Seeing that the Mavs gave up so much to get him, they will likely do everything they can to re-sign him.

Philadelphia 76ers star James Harden has a player option for next season. Giving him the choice to hit the market or not. While there have been rumors of him possibly going back to the Houston Rockets, his best chances of winning are alongside league MVP Joel Embiid.
3) Khris Middleton
Another All-Star with a player option for next season is Khris Middleton. After a season filled with injuries, he might be better off opting in and returning to the Milwaukee Bucks for another year.
4) Russell Westbrook
One of the more interesting NBA free agents this summer is Russell Westbrook. Following a down year with the LA Lakers, he managed to be a valuable piece for the LA Clippers. Following his impressive run, the former MVP might have earned himself a decent contract moving forward.
