Monday marked the last day for NBA teams around the league to make adjustments. They needed to finalize their roster before the NBA season officially began on Tuesday night.
First rounders Kris Dunn (Providence) and Henry Ellenson (Marquette) are gearing up for their NBA debuts. Dunn was picked fifth overall in the 2016 draft, going to the Timberwolves. Minnesota currently holds five point guards on its opening day roster--Dunn, Ricky Rubio, Zach LaVine, Tyus Jones, and John Lucas III. Meanwhile, Ellenson went 18th overall to the Detroit Pistons, where he joins a frontcourt headlined by Andre Drummond.
There were also a number of other Big East stars that tried to make NBA rosters, and some tried the hard way as undrafted free agents.
