Interesting stuff wonder who they bring in now for that 2nd spot.

Makes sense. Didn’t do much in Summer League besides hitting a few 3s. Couldn’t finish at the rim.

He definitely did not impress. Surprised he got the spot in the first place.

I wouldn't necessarily be racing to give Wendell Moore Jr. a spot either. He wasn't anything special in Vegas.

Well its not a shocker. It will be hard to bring someone valueable. We have little space to play even our own draft picks.

Maybe Trevelin Queen would take the 2 Way if he doesn't find a deal elsewhere.

Last year, The Magic left open their third Two-Way spot for almost the whole season and only signed Thompson before the Deadline to sign Two-Way Players.
What they should have done was offer Jay Huff a Two-Way Deal but they didn't and he signed with Memphis.
Thompson I guess was who they felt their best non-Two Way G League was and gave him the contract. I never felt he was a Two-Way Contract Player though.
I'm encouraged by The Robinson signing and hope they add a point guard and a swingman to the other Two-Way slots.

Unfortunately, he already has 4 years of service and players with 4 or more years cannot sign Two-Way Deals.

I assume that the Magic will wait till the pre-season to sign one or two 2-way players.
I think it will be crickets for a while for us fans.

I like going into the season with 2 open, you have 1 for need (we have an injury) and 1 for development (If so-n-so comes available, we snag him).

You write this, and seconds later this is posted:
The Utah Jazz have waived guard Jaden Springer.
There will be some nice two-way prospects. I can't wait til the pre-season to see what these players look like!
