The move

Chance McMillian is on the Golden State Warriors roster, per the official roster dated Tuesday, Sep. 15. The 25-year-old guard arrives from free agency, having not been on an NBA roster before now. He is a rookie, with no NBA line from last season. No report on the move was logged ahead of the roster update, so the transaction was detected directly from the roster change rather than preceded by reporting.
