The San Antonio Spurs announced their opening-night roster for the 2026-27 season, filling 14 standard contracts while deliberately keeping one slot vacant for financial flexibility.
The roster features De'Aaron Fox, Jordan McLaughlin, Stephon Castle, Dylan Harper, Devin Vassell, Julian Champagnie, Keldon Johnson, Carter Bryant, Harrison Barnes, Tobias Harris, Jayden Quaintance, Tarris Reed Jr., Luke Kornet, and reigning Rookie of the Year Victor Wembanyama. The remaining opening must be filled by a minimum contract for a player with no NBA experience if the team wishes to stay below the luxury tax threshold.
San Antonio also carries three two-way players: returning guard David Jones-Garcia, who missed last season with an injury and turns 25 soon, plus 2026 second-round draft picks Maliq Brown (42nd overall) and Ja'Kobi Gillespie (44th overall).
The Spurs, who won 62 games and advanced to the NBA Finals last season, project to start three lead guards with a wing at power forward. They open the season at home against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Oct. 20th at 8:30 p.m. CT.
