NBA free agency 2026: Power forward market is solid, but LeBron James is lone star

The 2026 NBA free agency power forward market is headlined by LeBron James, 41, who will be an unrestricted free agent but is widely expected to re-sign with the Los Angeles Lakers. Beyond James, the market features multiple starter-caliber players and several high-minute bench options, as evaluated through BORD$ valuations. The overall class is considered solid despite dropping off significantly after James.
