I did not know he was that good of a shooter. Shot 43% 3pt shooter in 55 games in the g-league regular season.

We should be signing more wings and bigs, not guards.

I like him but it is weird signing another guard. We already have Kevon Harris who can be rotation player but no minutes for him.

It's an exhibit 10 contract, they're not getting minutes. Just camp bodies.

I think this is a sign that they want more dunking and better dunk quality from the PG position. I mean, our drtg is really low from the guard spot, and I’m pretty sure that’s dunk rating. Imagine paying $25 million for more bad dunk ratings when we can sign a dunk champ for nothing! Take note Cole. Step up Fultz.

Indeed!

Orlando will get to something like 21 or 22 players under contract for pre season. Players like McClung are fighting for Orlando's lone two-way contract. Orlando must get to 15+3 deals by October, so their will be 4 or 5 extra players added that will hten be cut.

Serious question, i thought Mac was already a regular 10th man in a rotation. Why is he now fighting for a 2 way spot?

To be fair, we did have T-Ross during the AG era.
