Josiah Allick is no longer on the Charlotte Hornets roster. The franchise waived the forward with effect from 1 September, according to the NBA’s official player movement register.
What the move means
The decision removes Allick from Charlotte’s roster ahead of the 2026/27 season. Under league rules, a waiver allows a team to release a player and, if no other franchise claims his rights, he can enter the free-agent market.
The transaction is listed in the NBA’s official player movement feed as an effective departure by the forward, with no destination team attached.
Player profile
Allick is listed by the league as a forward. His canonical profile does not yet include consolidated statistics or verified physical data for this season, so his exact on-court contribution in Charlotte cannot be quantified at this stage.
Regardless, the move changes his immediate contractual status: he is no longer tied to the Hornets and can pursue a new opportunity on the market.
Impact on Charlotte Hornets
For Charlotte, the departure opens a roster spot at a point on the calendar when many franchises are fine-tuning their rotations ahead of the 2026/27 regular season. The decision fits the usual pattern of pre-season roster moves.
Next steps
No destination team is currently attached to Allick. He becomes available on the NBA free-agent market and can negotiate with any franchise under league rules. The move was recorded in the NBA’s official system on 1 September 2026.
