NBA trade rumors: Full list of players who become eligible to be traded on December 15 image

There are several key dates throughout the NBA's annual calendar. Dec. 15 is one of the most important.

As teams look to improve their rosters via trade, Dec. 15 is when trade talks intensify as over 80 players who signed contracts in the 2023 offseason become eligible to be traded. To put that figure in perspective, that's nearly 20 percent of the players in the league.

While there are still several ineligible players to be moved due to different contract stipulations, the vast group of players that have now become available gives teams more power and negotiating flexibility on the trade market.

Who is now eligible to be traded? Here is a full list of players that can now be included in deals and their salaries for the 2023-24 season.
