Antonio Reeves is off the Charlotte Hornets roster as of Monday, September 21, according to the team's official roster. No report or reporter preceded the move, and his next destination is not announced.

The move

Antonio Reeves, a 25-year-old guard with two seasons of NBA experience, is off the Charlotte Hornets roster as of Monday, September 21, according to the team's official roster. No official report preceded the move, and none is logged. He leaves the roster with no listed destination; the club's roster stood at 21 players, 15 standard and three two-way, as the change was recorded.

The money

Reeves' contract is not on file yet; public salary data can lag a signing by a day, so no cap hit or contract length is available for him. Charlotte carries a payroll of $177.1 million across 18 contracts for 2026-27, above the $165.0 million salary cap but below the $200.4 million luxury tax line. The Hornets also sit under both aprons, the $209.0 million first apron and the $221.7 million second apron.

The fit

Last season Reeves played 10 games for 6.8 minutes, averaging 2.7 points, 0.8 rebounds and 0.3 assists. Charlotte's rotation last season was led by Kon Knueppel at 31.5 minutes and 18.5 points, Miles Bridges at 31.0 minutes and 17.1 points, Brandon Miller at 30.3 minutes and 20.2 points, and LaMelo Ball at 28.0 minutes and 20.1 points, with Moussa Diabaté, Sion James, Collin Sexton and Ryan Kalkbrenner also in the mix. The Hornets' roster now counts 21 players, 15 standard plus three two-way.
