hmm, led the Pac-12 in scoring his senior year, shot 40% from 3 and fighting for G-league. 6'8 with 7'2 wingspan, wonder what the issue is with him

Has this guy played in the league before or he was a forever GLeaguer?

Two way player do not need to be cut. They can simply be resent to the G-league (even if there are no games to play).

This is so well deserved. Franks played great for Lakeland in the Bubble.

It will be interesting to see who gets cut.

Is Franks an undersized PF or a SF?

A few scouting reports highlight his poor defense and rebounding.

Maybe Frank's will allow the Magic to buyout Ennis.

No, Klay was better, but Robert was really solid, almost 40% (4 attempts per game).
