I'm currently attempting to grab the latest team rosters from the NBA using the commonteamroster endpoint, but it seems like whatever season_id I enter, it only returns the 2020 rosters.
The roster I am looking at grabbing can be found here: https://www.nba.com/stats/team/1610612738/?Season=2021-22
My code
import pandas as pd
import requests
import time
headers = {
'Connection': 'keep-alive',
'Accept': 'application/json, text/plain, */*',
'x-nba-stats-token': 'true',
'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_14_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/79.0.3945.130 Safari/537.36',

from nba_api.stats.endpoints import commonteamroster
# get teams from the reg season 2021-22
teamfinder = commonteamroster.CommonTeamRoster(season='2021-22',
team_id='1610612738',
league_id_nullable='00')
teams = teamfinder.get_data_frames()[0]
team_id = teams['TeamID'].unique().tolist()
team_ids = teams['TeamID'].unique().tolist()
teams_roster=[]
for team_id in team_ids:
player_stats_data = commonteamroster.CommonTeamRoster(team_id=team_id, headers=headers, timeout=100)
time.sleep(.600)
df = player_stats_data.common_team_roster.get_data_frame()
df['TeamID'] = team_id
print(team_id)
teams_roster.append(df)
This returns:

It doesn't matter what I set my season number, it only pulls 2020 season roster?
It works fine. Did you not look at the output from:
# get teams from the reg season 2021-22
teamfinder = commonteamroster.CommonTeamRoster(season='2021-22',
team_id='1610612738',
league_id_nullable='00')
By default it grabs 2020 season. You neglected to add that season parameter in your for loop.
for team_id in team_ids:
player_stats_data = commonteamroster.CommonTeamRoster(season='2021-22', team_id=team_id, headers=headers, timeout=100) # <--- ADD YOUR season parameter!
time.sleep(.600)
df = player_stats_data.common_team_roster.get_data_frame()
df['TeamID'] = team_id
print(team_id)
teams_roster.append(df)
