ANDROID nullpointer error while file creation

ANDROID nullpointer error while file creation

In the while statement, final2.add(read) is getting a nullpointer which
leads me to believe that it is not reading the file correctly, so my
question is the following am I obtaining the contents of the text file
correctly?
@SuppressWarnings("null")
public void loadOpp() throws FileNotFoundException {
File y = new File(getFilesDir()+File.separator+"Opponent.txt");
FileReader x = new FileReader(y);
BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(x);
String read;
List<String> final2 = new ArrayList();
try {
while((read = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null){
final2.add(read);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
Spinner spinner= (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner3);
ArrayAdapter<String> dataAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, final2);
dataAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
spinner.setAdapter(dataAdapter);
}
