NBA teams have finalized their opening night rosters and sent copies to the league, the NBA announced via press release. The deadline for teams to do so was 4pm Central today. That led to a flurry of movement as front offices worked to drop from the 20-man preseason limit to the 15-man regular season maximum. No team pulled off more moves today than the Sixers, as they waived five players who were with the team for the preseason and quickly signed and waived another to grab his D-League rights.
The Rockets, Knicks, Magic, Suns start the season with 14 players, but all other NBA teams are at 15. That means 446 players are under contract to start the NBA season.

I am surprised Perry Jones III wasn’t added by someone today. Especially since there’s still four team with a vacant roster spot.
