  • Hayden Gray SG | BOS

    Hayden Gray: Cut loose by Celtics

    Gray was waived by the Celtics on Saturday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

    Gray appeared in one regular-season game for the Jazz in 2025-26, though he spent most of his time in the G League with the Maine Celtics. That will likely be the case for the 23-year-old once again in 2026-27.

  • Tucker DeVries SF | BOS

    Tucker DeVries: Waived by Boston

    DeVries was waived by the Celtics on Saturday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

    DeVries went undrafted in 2026 before appearing in two preseason contests for the Celtics. In those games, he averaged 7.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals over 17.3 minutes per contest. DeVries will likely find work in the G League, presumably with the Maine Celtics.

  • Zack Austin F | CLE

    Zack Austin: Waived by Cavs

    Austin has been waived by the Cavaliers on Saturday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

    Austin didn't have much of a shot at making the regular-season roster with the Cavaliers, so this transaction isn't a surprise. He's expected to link up with the Cleveland Charge of the G League.

  • Noah Penda SF | ORL

    Magic's Noah Penda: Suffers partial hamstring tear

    Penda was diagnosed with a partially torn right hamstring Saturday, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

    Penda suffered the hamstring tear in Friday's 136-115 preseason win over the Heat. It's unknown how long the injury will keep the 21-year-old off the floor. However, since it's a different injury than the one he suffered in the same hamstring during training camp, the team may take a cautious approach regarding his return. Penda, the No. 32 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, averaged 3.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists over 12.8 minutes per outing in 59 regular-season games in 2025-26. While he's not expected to be a mainstay in the rotation throughout the 2026-27 campaign, his absence could open up a few minutes for Tristan da Silva.

  • Rashaun Agee PF | CLE

    Rashaun Agee: Waived by Cavaliers

    Agee has been waived by the Cavaliers on Saturday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

    Agee was widely expected to be waived before the start of the regular season, and that has ended up being the case. He wasn't selected in the 2026 NBA Draft and is likely to join the Cleveland Charge in the G League before their regular season begins.

  • Drew Timme PF | MIN

    Drew Timme: Cut by Minnesota

    Timme was waived by the Timberwolves on Saturday.

    Timme had 18 points, seven rebounds, three assists and one steal over 27 minutes in Friday's 133-116 preseason loss to the Bulls. Despite the strong showing, he couldn't land a spot with the Timberwolves. The 23-year-old appeared in 36 regular-season games for the Nets and Lakers throughout his career, averaging 5.6 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.2 assists over 13.6 minutes per contest. Timme could find work in the G League, and it's also possible his services will be needed by an NBA team during the 2026-27 campaign.

  • Antonio Reeves SG | MIN

    Antonio Reeves: Waived by Minnesota

    Reeves was waived by the Timberwolves on Saturday.

    After appearing in 56 regular-season games for the Pelicans and Hornets since being drafted in the second round of the 2024 NBA Draft, Reeves couldn't earn a spot on the Timberwolves' roster. However, there's a chance he will suit up for the Iowa Wolves of the G League in 2026-27.

  • Norchad Omier PF | MIN

    Norchad Omier: Let go by Timberwolves

    Omier was waived by the Timberwolves on Saturday.

    Omier appeared in six regular-season games for the Clippers in 2025-26, averaging 2.8 points and 1.2 rebounds over 3.9 minutes per contest. After a quiet preseason, the 25-year-old will once again be on the hunt for a spot on an NBA roster, though it's possible he will find work in the G League.

  • KJ Martin: Waived by Minnesota

    Martin was waived by the Timberwolves on Saturday.

    Martin attempted to latch on with another NBA team. However, he won't find work with the Timberwolves. The 25-year-old has appeared in 309 regular-season games since entering the league in 2020, averaging 8.6 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.2 assists over 21.6 minutes per contest. Martin could earn a spot on an NBA roster, though he appears to be a long way away from landing a consistent role with a club.

  • John Poulakidas: Let go Saturday

    Poulakidas was waived by the Mavericks on Saturday, Michael Scotto of HoopsHype.com reports.

    Poulakidas signed a two-year, two-way pact with Dallas in February, though he'll now be looking for work elsewhere. In 13 regular-season outings in 2025-26, he averaged 8.8 points and 2.3 rebounds while shooting 40.3 percent from deep across 19.5 minutes per tilt.
