Olivari will compete for a spot on Detroit's regular-season roster, and the club will hold his G League rights. The 23-year-old guard spent most of the 2024-25 campaign with the the G League's South Bay Lakers, averaging 17.6 points, 4.7 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.1 steals in 32.7 minutes per game over 40 outings.
Martin will compete for a spot on Philadelphia's regular-season roster after being cut by the Wizards in early August. He spent most of last season on two-way contracts, averaging 4.9 points and 2.8 rebounds across 14.9 minutes per game in 16 regular-season appearances between Brooklyn and Washington.
Hill will compete for a spot on the 76ers' regular-season roster, though he's more likely to join the club's G League squad. The 29-year-old forward last played with the G League's Birmingham Squadron in 2023-24, averaging 22.0 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.6 steals across 34.4 minutes per game in 46 outings.
Chandler will join the 76ers for training camp and compete for a regular-season roster spot, though it's more likely that he lands with the club's G League team this season. The 23-year-old point guard appeared in 50 games for the G League's Raptors 905 last season, averaging 13.2 points, 5.1 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.3 steals across 24.1 minutes per game.
Bates will compete for a spot on Philadelphia's regular-season roster during training camp, and the team will retain his G League rights. The 2023 second-round pick spent the first two years of his career on a two-way pact with Cleveland but mostly played in the G League. Over 23 outings with the G League's Cleveland Charge in 2024-25, he averaged 17.6 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.2 assists across 31.0 minutes.
Charlotte signed Garrett to a training camp contract Saturday, and it remains possible that he'll open the new season as part of the G League's Greensboro Swarm. Over 27 G League regular-season appearances in 2024-25, the 26-year-old averaged 9.4points, 3.9 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.4steals in 28.9 minutes per game.
Rodman will compete for a spot on the Hornets' regular-season roster in training camp, though it's more likely that the club is signing him to acquire his G League rights. The 24-year-old forward appeared in 31 G League outings between the Maine Celtics and Capital City Go-Go in 2024-25, averaging 6.0 points and 5.1 rebounds while shooting 42.6 percent from the field across 22.1 minutes per game.
VanVleet struggled with efficiency during his second season in Houston, but the Rockets' win-loss record with him on the court (41-19) spoke volumes about his overall impact on the team. With VanVleet sidelined, the runway is clear for Reed Sheppard, who barely had a role as a rookie after being selected with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. Amen Thompson could also handle a ton of ball-handling responsibilities in VanVleet's absence, but Aaron Holiday is the only other true point guard on the roster currently.
Queen underwent surgery to repair a torn scapholunate ligament in his left wrist in mid-July and was scheduled to be re-evaluated in approximately 12 weeks, so it's not surprising he has not yet been cleared for training camp this fall. The rookie first-rounder still has time to be ready for Opening Night, though the Pelicans would figure to proceed with caution. Yves Missi (rest) would operate as the clear top center if Queen isn't available to start the season, and Kevon Looney would handle the backup role.
Murray was diagnosed with a torn right Achilles tendon back on Jan. 31, and it remains unclear how close he is to returning to the court. The star guard figures to at least be limited in training camp this fall, though it's possible be may not be cleared to participate in any significant capacity. Until Murray is ready to suit up for the Pelicans, Jordan Poole should serve as the top point guard while rookie Jeremiah Fears and veteran Jose Alvarado fight for the backup role.
This is a training camp contract for Samuel, as the Suns are likely trying to secure his G League rights. Samuel played for the Valley Suns in the G League during the 2024-25 season, averaging 10.8 points, 7.3 rebounds and 1.4 assists.
Jones underwent surgery Feb. 12 to repair a torn rotator cuff in his right shoulder, but he's been at "full speed" for a while now, Dumars said. This means he shouldn't face any limitations ahead of training camp. Jones averaged 10.3 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.9 steals through 20 regular-season games in 2024-25, and he's currently penciled in as a starter alongside Jordan Poole and Trey Murphy.
Dumars added that Murphy has been operating at full speed, meaning he should be a full go ahead of training camp. Murphy is coming off a career-best 2024-25 campaign with averages of 21.2 points, 5.1 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 3.0 three-pointers, 1.1 steals and 0.7 blocks across 35.6 minutes per contest, though he could see slightly less usage in 2025-26 if Zion Williamson manages to stay healthy.
This is an expected move, as the Nets signed him to a partially-guaranteed deal in order to obtain his G League rights. Collins is expected to suit up for Long Island in the G League following this transaction.
