Nick Pringle is off the Brooklyn Nets roster, per the official roster checked Monday, Sept. 28. The move follows a Sept. 21 report from Brian Lewis, "Nets Roster Moves: Pringle, Rodman, Scott."

The move

Nick Pringle, a 25-year-old rookie forward, is off the Brooklyn Nets roster, per the official roster checked Monday, Sept. 28. No other club is listed for him. The move follows a Sept. 21 report from Brian Lewis, "Nets Roster Moves: Pringle, Rodman, Scott," which flagged him among the club's roster moves; the report's confidence level is not on file for that story.

The money

Pringle carried a $1.4 million cap hit for 2026-27, the only year on file for him. With him off the roster, Brooklyn's payroll stands at $161.5 million across 16 contracts for 2026-27, putting the Nets under the cap. The 2026-27 cap is set at $165.0 million, the tax line at $200.4 million, the first apron at $209.0 million and the second apron at $221.7 million. The Nets have room below all four thresholds.

The fit

Pringle logged no NBA line last season. Brooklyn's returning rotation from last season already runs deep: Michael Porter Jr. led at 32.5 minutes and 24.2 points, followed by Trevon Scott (30.4 minutes, 8.0 points), Nic Claxton (27.8 minutes, 11.7 points), Noah Clowney (27.0 minutes, 12.3 points), Egor Demin (25.2 minutes, 10.3 points), Terance Mann (24.3 minutes, 7.2 points), Cam Thomas (24.3 minutes, 15.6 points) and Malachi Smith (23.9 minutes, 8.3 points). With him off the books, the Nets carry 20 players on the roster against a standard limit of 15 plus three two-way slots.
