The Magic waived Jeremy Richardson to avoid having his contract become guaranteed. But GM Otis Smith says they are interested in re-signing him later. How does this work? Can they resign him to a non-guaranteed contract for the rest of the year?

After 30 days, yes.

Are you sure there's a 30 day wait required? I think you are might be thinking of rules that apply to different situations rather than the one being asked about.

Yes, I am. I'm thinking of the waived-by-another-team rule thingy. Ignore what I just said. Indeed, ignore everything I ever say.

Once he clears waivers, they can sign him to a non-guaranteed contract.

Which would become guaranteed on January 10th, correct?

I'd be tee-off if I was Courtney Sims. He got signed 84 times and probably only made per diem.

It was actually 840 times. I typoed.

There is not that many days in 2 years. How can that be?

That's classified. Meaning I don't know.
