Jalen Slawson Drafted, NBA Bound!

[tya1]

CBSSports rated the Kings draft highly -

The Kings did well in the second round to get Jones, a Swiss Army Knife wing/guard combo who can do a little bit of everything at a high level. He makes quick decisions and should fit well into Mike Brown's prolific offense while bringing defensive help as well. Slawson is a point-forward akin to Scottie Barnes Lite or Kyle Anderson, whose playmaking and IQ are his main assets. Grade: A-

Awesome! Huge for FU hoops to have a player in the NBA

[FU Hoopla]

Two-way contracts allow NBA teams to carry three extra players in addition to the 15 on their regular season roster. These players generally move back and forth between the NBA and G League, but remain under team control and can’t be poached by other franchises.

Two-way players are eligible to be active for up to 50 of their team’s 82 regular season games. And instead of having their salaries determined by how many days they spend in the NBA, they’ll receive flat salaries of $559,782, half of the rookie minimum.

Good deal IMHO. Contract plus he gets to play.

On NBA team he sits buried on the bench.
