    Nice dunk! But can he shoot? I hope he has some range in his shots and not just another high flying dunker.

    Too good for the G-League, just like Sheppard.

    Yea, we used to have 3 now it’s just 1. I wouldn’t mind if he was a high flyer to be honest to inject some athleticism back into roster instead of it just being Amen.

    And how many roster spots do we actually have? I thought we were at the apron already?

    15 actual roster spots, only 14 are occupied.

    3 two way contracts at any one time. Kevon Harris, JD Davison & Isaiah Crawford occupy those spots currently.

    Two way contracts don't count against the cap.

    Thank you, I appreciate the explanation. What happened to that Mathews scrub from the summer league?

    NBA teams can hold up to 20 players going into camp including the 2-way players & exhibit 10 contracts.

    It is a bit sad we went from "possibly the most athletic team in the NBA" to 1 high flying dunker.

    He does look like Unibrow and McCollum.

    I still remember watching those Draft House videos with Davison, Jabari, and TyTy. It's like we just had to have them all at some point in their careers.

    No need for him after signing CC. Perhaps, he might be on the Vipers.

    Liked JD coming out of college and has gotten better. Tough trying to crack a loaded veteran Celtics team. This is the kind of signing I like with two-ways, young and up and coming players with promise. Didn’t like any of the others Stone signed but like his latest picks with JD and Crawford.

    Yes indeed. Good pickups these past few weeks by Stone. Let’s get these two in camp and see what they can do.

    Mathews is (was?) an exhibit 10 signing, meaning the team has the option to convert him up to a 2way, and have the rights to sign him to GLeague.

    Basically exhibit 10s are roster builders for a GLeague affiliate.
