The NBA season begins tonight, and teams have made their final training-camp cuts. Teams are permitted to keep a 15-man roster of 12 active and 3 inactive players. Here's how players of area interest stand entering the season. For the purposes of this post, we'll ignore the more-established players and focus on rookies and players who were uncertain of making a team.

Joakim Noah (Florida) is on the Chicago Bulls' 12-man active roster and should play a significant reserve role.

Al Horford (Florida) made the Atlanta Hawks' active roster and may start at either power forward or center.

Taurean Green (Florida) made the Portand Trail Blazers' 12-man active roster and will compete for backup point guard minutes. Josh McRoberts (Duke) is listed as inactive.

Corey Brewer (Florida) is on the Minnesota Timberwolves' 12-man active roster and is expected to come off the bench early in the year. Chris Richard (Florida) made the Timberwolves' 15-man roster but is listed as inactive.

Al Thornton (FSU) is on the LA Clippers' 12-man active roster and is projected as a top reserve.

Jermareo Davidson (Alabama) made the Charlotte Bobcats' 12-man active roster, thanks in part to season-ending injuries to forwards Sean May and Adam Morrison.

Glen Davis (LSU) is on the Boston Celtics' 12-man active roster and will likely see little playing time behind Kevin Garnett.

Darius Washington (Memphis) is on the San Antonio Spurs' 12-man active roster.

VETERANS

Alexander Johnson (Florida State) is listed as inactive on the Miami Heat's roster. Former Orlando Magic guard Anfernee Hardaway made the team's 12-man active roster.

Von Wafer (Florida State) is on the Denver Nuggets' 12-man active roster, thanks largely to the inactive status of veteran guards Chucky Atkins, Anthony Carter and J.R. Smith. Anthony Roberson (Florida) was cut by the Nuggets.

Matt Bonner (Florida) is on the San Antonio Spurs' 12-man active roster, and could see some reserve minutes.  

Orien Greene (Gainesville native) is on the Sacramento Kings' active roster and could merit heavy minutes with the injury to inactive starting point guard Mike Bibby.

Tarence Kinsey (South Carolina) is listed as inactive on the Memphis Grizzlies' roster.

I'll update with more if I see them, but I think that about covers it.
