👉 A roster fluid, often seen in professional sports leagues like the NBA, refers to a system where players can move between different teams within a league without the traditional constraints of long-term contracts or rigid draft structures. This fluidity allows players to seek new opportunities, better fit their skills with a team's needs, or escape challenging environments. Teams can also benefit from this system by gaining versatile talent and avoiding the high costs of long-term contracts. However, it can lead to instability for both players and teams, as player loyalty and team cohesion may be affected by frequent changes.
