The first few hours of NBA free agency began with an unprecedented boom, with several of the biggest names from around the league changing teams in screen-melting fashion.

It began with Kyrie Irving to the Nets. And Kemba Walker to the Celtics. Then Kevin Durant's decision to join Brooklyn was also revealed... and the hits kept coming from there. Later, the Heat landed Jimmy Butler from the 76ers, only for Philly to replace him with Al Horford minutes later. It was a mess of activity, changing the landscape of the league in just one evening.

With the league's decision to move free agency up to 6 p.m. ET on June 30, all 30 NBA teams were firing on all cylinders as the offseason spending spree began. Gone were the midnight doorbell rings, in were the nearly formalized deals as the bell rang.

With Kyrie, Kemba, KD and Jimmy just a few of the names on the move, The Crossover recaps the 40+ deals from the first six hours of NBA free agency. For more coverage, check out our free-agent tracker and updated top 50 rankings.
