Roster Moves Required Soon For Kings, Warriors…TS.DHUNG.

Sacramento Kings vs Golden State Warriors Predicted Starting Lineups and  Depth Chart for Mar. 13 | NBA 2024-25 season

NBA teams are generally required to carry at least 14 players on standard contracts. However, league rules allow clubs to dip below that minimum for up to two weeks at a time and for up to 28 total days in a season.

Currently, two teams are operating with fewer than 14 players on their 15-man rosters and will soon have to sign a free agent or promote a two-way player to a standard contract to avoid violating that rule. Those teams are as follows:

Sacramento Kings

The Kings first dropped below 14 players on February 3, when they completed their De’Aaron Fox trade. That deal saw them send out three players and acquire only two in return.

Sacramento got back to the 14-player minimum 10 days later, when Markelle Fultz signed with the team on February 13, before dipping back to 13 on February 18, following the expiration of Daishen Nix‘s 10-day contract.

The Kings remained below the 14-player minimum until 13 days later, when Skal Labissiere signed a 10-day contract on March 3, then once again went below the minimum on March 13 after Labissiere’s deal expired.

As a result of that series of roster moves, Sacramento is fast approaching its 28-day maximum for the season and will be required to re-add a 14th man by the middle of this week (by our count, the deadline is March 18). If the club exhausts its full 28 days below 14 players, it won’t be able to go below that minimum again this season.

Golden State Warriors

Like the Kings, the Warriors fell below 14 players on standard contracts for the first time this season as a result of a blockbuster deadline deal. In Golden State’s case, it was the February 6 move for Jimmy Butler, which required the club to send out four players.

The Warriors signed Kevin Knox and Yuri Collins to 10-day contracts on February 19, 13 days later, to reach the 14-player minimum. When those deals expired on March 1, Golden State re-signed Knox immediately, but let Collins go. As a result, the team was below 14 players for three days, until Pat Spencer was promoted to the standard roster on March 4.

After seven more days at the 14-player minimum, Golden State has been operating below that threshold since March 11, when Knox’s second 10-day contract expired. So the clock is once again ticking on the Warriors, who have another week to add a 14th man if they intend to exhaust their full 28-day allowance (by our count, their deadline is March 23).

Knox looks like the top candidate to return at that point on a rest-of-season contract, but that’s just my speculation — it hasn’t been reported. It’s worth noting that the Warriors will soon have the ability to fill both their 14th and 15th spots with rest-of-season signings while staying below their hard cap, so if Knox fills one of those two openings, the team will still be able to add a second player before the end of the regular season.
