5 players, $1.1 billion: NBA free agency starts with a bang

Declines player option Portis declined his $4.6 million player option Wednesday and became a free agent, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Impact Portis saw a significant increase in role last season with Milwaukee as Brook Lopez missed much of the season. In 28.2 minutes per game, Portis averaged 14.6 points, 9.1 rebounds and 1.2 assists. It would be surprising if he didn't have other suitors, but there's been no indication that either he or the Bucks wants to end his tenure. According to Bobby Marks of ESPN.com, the maximum that Portis can sign for with Milwaukee is four years, $49 million.

Huge impact in win Portis amassed 14 points (4-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 15 rebounds, two assists and one steal over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 110-107 win over Boston.
Impact While no Boston player collected more than eight rebounds, Portis had seven offensive rebounds alone. Portis was the catalyst in Milwaukee winning the rebounding battle and second-chance points were the difference in the game. Portis saw a reduced role in Game 4, but he returned to a healthy workload Wednesday and can be expected to on Friday as well.

Moves to bench for Game 3 Portis will come off the bench for Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics, Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe reports.
Impact Coach Mike Budenholzer will switch things up in Game 3 with the series tied 1-1, going with Grayson Allen in the starting lineup over Portis, who has been in the lineup since Khris Middleton (knee) got injured. Portis still figures to have a significant role, and it would be relatively surprising if he saw fewer than 20 minutes. In the playoffs, he's averaged 12.3 points and 10.9 rebounds in 25.3 minutes.

Near double-double in loss Portis finished with 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-3 FT) and eight rebounds in a 109-86 loss to Boston on Tuesday.

Double-doubles in Game 1 win Portis finished Sunday's 101-89 win over the Celtics with 15 points (6-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 32 minutes.
Impact Portis has registered a double-double in four straight games and five times over the Bucks' six playoff contests so far. The Bucks will likely continue to start Portis as long as Khris Middleton (knee) remains sidelined, so it doesn't appear like the seventh-year forward's production will be limited any time soon.

Diesel from BP Portis totaled 14 points (6-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt), 17 rebounds and one assist across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 116-100 win over the Bulls.
Impact Portis was a menace on the glass Wednesday, logging a season-high 17 rebounds. A third straight double-double for Portis, he's outperformed Brook Lopez in recent nights. The reintroducing of Lopez to Milwaukee's rotation threw off Portis' production, but it seems a rebalancing has begun taking hold. Portis could be heavily utilized in a switch-oriented, second-round matchup against Boston.
