“As I wrote in contextualizing Paul George’s free agency, 24 players have become free agents in the summer after reaching the All-Star Game since 2010. Of those 24 players, 14 changed teams. More damning, though, is that of the 19 players on that list who became free agents without reaching the NBA Finals the year before, 13 changed teams. Of the five times that those free agents did reach the NBA Finals, they stayed in four of them.
The message here is clear: when stars reach free agency without playing for an NBA Finals-caliber team, they tend to leave.
That is equally true of players who are traded before they ever reach free agency. Since 2010, 13 players (Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony and Deron Williams in 2011, Joe Johnson, Dwight Howard, Andrew Bynum and Andre Iguodala in 2012, Jrue Holiday in 2013, Kevin Love in 2014, Paul George, DeMarcus Cousins, Isaiah Thomas and Kyrie Irving in 2017) have been traded with time left on their contract after playing in the most recent All-Star Game before the deal. Wipe away Thomas, Iguodala and Bynum because there were traded simply to facilitate the greater stars in their deals. Johnson and Holiday were traded on purely basketball terms.
The remaining eight players on that list all pushed to be traded because they were unhappy in their situations. In six cases, all but Howard and Irving, the player involved had never made it to the NBA Finals before."
