MINUTES LEDGEREach bar adds up the minutes today's roster played in 2025-26, for any club, and sets them against the minutes its own club played that season, about 19,780: left of centre is less than a season, right of centre more, in minutes a game. Beside it, the share of the club's own 2025-26 minutes still on its roster. Rosters as of Nov 12, 2026. These are minutes already played, not a forecast — a player who missed 2025-26 adds nothing, so players with two or more NBA seasons and under 20 games are flagged under their club, the two most experienced by name.

METHOD
How these charts work
Each position is ordered by the league's own depth number: 1 is the starter, 2 the first man off the bench behind them. Where a club lists a player without a depth, they are shown last — an unranked player is not a starter, and guessing where they belong would put a name in a slot the league never gave them.
The five positions are the ones basketball charts are published in — point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward, centre. A club that publishes a position outside those five keeps it, listed after them, because a position nobody modelled is still one the league named.
All 30 clubs with a published chart are listed alphabetically: the charts are a directory, not a ranking. The minutes ledger below them sorts all 30 clubs by one count, which says how much of 2025-26 a roster played, not how good it is.
The minutes ledger reads every club's 2025-26 regular-season minutes, player by player, and its roster today, from the same feed as the charts. A player's minutes are added up over every club he played for, and each stint is counted for the club it was played for.
'Back' is the share of a club's own 2025-26 minutes played by players still on its roster. Each bar adds everything today's roster played that season, for any club, takes away what the club itself played (19,705 to 19,932 minutes), and divides by its 82 games. Added across the league, the bars come to 40,518 minutes short: exactly what the 141 players on no roster here played.
Minutes played are not ability. 82 rostered players have no 2025-26 game, 53 of them drafted in 2026, and they add nothing to a bar. Players with two or more NBA seasons and fewer than 20 games in 2025-26 are flagged under their club, the two most experienced by name and the rest as a count, by that rule rather than by judgement.
The two lists read the 30 published charts against 2025-26 starts, counted over every club a player started for. 'Started' means at least half of 20 or more games — this page's rule, not the league's. A rostered player missing from his club's chart is in neither list: the feed doesn't say why.
FAQ
Questions
Where do these depth charts come from?
They are the league's published charts, carried through the same feed that supplies these pages' standings and statistics. Nothing here is modelled or projected — the order is the club's own.
What does the number beside each player mean?
It is the depth the league assigns: 1 is the starter at that position, 2 is next, and so on. A player listed without one appears at the end of their position, because the feed has not ranked them.
Which positions are shown?
PG, SG, SF, PF, C — the five a basketball depth chart is published in. Any other position a club lists is shown after those five rather than dropped.
Which NBA team brought back the most of its 2025-26 minutes?
The San Antonio Spurs: players still on their roster played 94% of their 2025-26 minutes. The Los Angeles Lakers kept the least, 40%, and the league median is 67%. Counting what today's rosters played for any club, the Sacramento Kings are the furthest short of a 2025-26 season, by 103 minutes a game, and the Philadelphia 76ers the furthest over, by 25 minutes a game. These are minutes already played, not a projection.
Why don't the shortfalls and surpluses cancel out?
Because some 2025-26 minutes left the league's rosters altogether. Added up, the bars come to 40,518 minutes short — exactly what the 141 players on no NBA roster here played that season.
Are these betting odds?
The charts and the minutes are not: they are the league's published charts and its 2025-26 box scores. The only prices on the page are the Rookie of the Year buttons beside AJ Dybantsa, Darryn Peterson, Cameron Boozer, Caleb Wilson and Darius Acuff Jr., rookies their clubs project to start; each buys Yes on that player's Kalshi contract. Kalshi's other NBA markets are on the championship, playoff and conference pages linked below.
