Welcome to the site !!
What you need to do is remove the front wheel , and just install the axle without the nut , then take 1 of the forks and loosen it , just enough so you can move it but it will stay in place on its own or with slight holding , then slightly move the fork up or down , and try to slide the axle in , when the axle moves freely in/out (you may have to twist the fork lug slightly to get a straight shot into the hole), then snug the fork , and torque to spec , your wheel should now spin freely , its fork bind that your experiencing .... ,
Sometimes the rebound nut is not assembled in the same position on the rebound rod as before and what happens is it will make the fork a slightly different length than the other , when you try to even up at the top , it is not the same overall length as the other fork and the axle will bind because 1 lug is lower/higher than the other , so the wheel is binding when you tighten it down , you can "fix" the issue by resetting the rebound nut to the rebound rod(each turn will shorten or lengthen , the manual explains how to set and measure it properly) , then when assembled measure from the outer fork leg/seal to the fork lug , the distance should be the exact same on both forks , if not readjust till it is even 1/8 turn makes a difference , but again you should adjust it as the manual explains and you should be good , then you can go back to setting the forks by how far they stick out of the top clamp
