JotaKelmer updates NBA 2K27 rosters with trades and rookie moves
JotaKelmer's NBA 2K27 roster update folded in trades, contract tweaks, and most second-round rookies, leaving the rest in free agency.
JotaKelmer rolled out a major NBA 2K27 roster update that added today’s trades, adjusted contracts, and moved most second-round rookies into free agency until official announcements catch up. The update is live across platforms, giving franchise players a faster way to load a roster that looks current now, while purists waiting on the final word on late rookie placement can sit tight a little longer.
The creator has built that lane into his identity. JotaKelmer’s YouTube profile describes him as a creator of NBA 2K draft classes and rosters for next gen, and his earlier uploads show the same offseason rhythm: updated trades and signings, all rookies brought into the game, new coaches, and G-League and overseas players pushed into free agency. This latest drop follows that familiar template, with the same aim that drives the best community roster work, to close the gap between the live NBA and the game file.
That impulse is nothing new in the NBA 2K scene. Operation Sports has long-running roster forums and separate roster threads that keep a steady audience on these updates, and one PS5 offseason roster post there packaged all free agents, trades, and first- and second-round rookies into a single July 20 refresh. Another roster project went deeper, updating all NBA transactions, including contract extensions, fixing more than 100 contract errors, and refreshing G-League rosters. The pattern is clear: when the community gets a roster file, it usually wants the whole offseason in one pass, not in scraps.
That is why JotaKelmer’s latest update lands as more than a simple transaction dump. Moving most second-round rookies into free agency gives roster builders a cleaner stopgap before the official game state catches up, and the updated trade and contract layer makes the file useful immediately for anyone starting a new franchise save or rebuilding a season from scratch. For players who want the most complete current setup, this is the download to load now. For anyone who wants every rookie slot to match the final official announcement sheet, the only thing left to wait on is the real-world paperwork.
