R.J. Davis is now on the Spurs' roster as of Friday, Sept. 25, entering the league as a rookie guard. San Antonio has not had his signing preceded by any logged report, and his contract is not yet on file.
The move
R.J. Davis, a 24-year-old rookie guard, is on the San Antonio Spurs' roster as of the official listing on Friday, Sept. 25. He arrives from free agency, with no prior team on record. No report preceded the move in the tracked injury and transaction log, so there is no outlet or confidence level tied to how it was first surfaced. The Spurs now carry 21 players on their roster, against a standard limit of 15 plus three two-way spots.
The money
Davis' contract is not on file yet, a lag that can run a day or more behind an official signing. San Antonio's overall payroll for 2026-27 sits at $198.3 million across 15 contracts. That puts the Spurs over the salary cap of $165.0 million but under the luxury tax line of $200.4 million, and well clear of both the first apron at $209.0 million and the second apron at $221.7 million.
The fit
Davis has no NBA line from last season; this is his rookie year. He joins a San Antonio backcourt already built around De'Aaron Fox, who logged 31.0 minutes and 18.6 points per game last season, Devin Vassell at 30.5 minutes and 13.9 points, and Stephon Castle at 30.0 minutes and 16.7 points. Rookie guard Dylan Harper also factors into the rotation at 22.6 minutes and 11.8 points, on a roster now at 21 players.
