Dalen Terry is off the Thunder roster, a move detected on the official roster on Monday, Nov. 9. Oklahoma City sits over the first apron with 18 players on its roster.

The move

Dalen Terry, a 24-year-old forward in his fourth season, leaves the Oklahoma City Thunder roster. The move showed up on the official roster on Monday, Nov. 9. It follows a Wednesday, Nov. 4 item from Hoops Rumors titled "Thunder Notes: Terry, Peavy, Caruso, Mara, Westbrook." That item carries no confidence rating. His destination is not announced, and no source has said whether the club waived him, traded him or made another move.

The money

Terry's deal is on file at $2.4 million for 2026-27 and $3.0 million for 2027-28. The Thunder carry $217.2 million across 15 contracts for this season. That puts them over the first apron of $209.0 million and below the second apron of $221.7 million. The cap is $165.0 million and the tax line is $200.4 million, so Oklahoma City is well past both. How the contract is handled now is not announced.

The fit

Terry played 2 games this season and averaged 5.5 minutes, 1.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 0.5 assists. The Thunder's rotation runs through Shai Gilgeous-Alexander at 32.8 minutes and 29.9 points, Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren, Ajay Mitchell and Jared McCain. Isaiah Hartenstein, Aday Mara and Jaylin Williams follow. Terry was outside that group. The roster stands at 18 players, within the standard limit of 15 plus 3 two-way.
