NBA fans have less than 24 hours to study the rosters for the new season.

The league announced the full rosters for all 30 teams Monday ahead of Tuesday's season-opening tripleheader:

Some of the offseason's biggest additions will be on display from the opening day of the season, as the Boston Celtics will take on the Detroit Pistons before the Philadelphia 76ers face the reigning champion New York Knicks.

Philadelphia was under the spotlight throughout the offseason, as it added the legendary LeBron James and five-time All-Star Jaylen Brown. Brown arrived via a trade that sent Paul George to the Celtics, where he will play alongside Jayson Tatum and look to help lead the team on a deep playoff run.

As for the reigning champions, the Knicks roster won't look much different with Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns, OG Anunoby, Mikal Bridges and Josh Hart running things back. New York won its first championship since the 1972-73 campaign and has a number of players returning that know what it takes to reach the NBA's mountaintop.

If the Knicks do reach the Finals again, they could very well face one of the teams playing each other in the nightcap of Tuesday's tripleheader.

The San Antonio Spurs defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder in last season's Western Conference Finals and bring back much of the same core with Victor Wembanyama leading the way. As for the Thunder, they still have Shai Gilgeous-Alexander spearheading the group.

While the Spurs, Knicks and Thunder will have plenty of familiar faces, there are a number of headliners on new teams this season.

Most notably outside of the moves involving the 76ers and Celtics, Giannis Antetokounmpo is joining Bam Adebayo on the Miami Heat. The future Hall of Famer's presence will mean opposing defenses will have to pick their poison when facing Miami's frontcourt, which could set them both up for major seasons.

Elsewhere, Kawhi Leonard is returning to the Toronto Raptors franchise he led to the championship in 2019 and LaMelo Ball will be the point guard passing Anthony Edwards the ball this season.

It promises to be a thrilling 2026-27 campaign, and some of the league's most prominent names and teams will be in action right away during Tuesday's openers.
