Two-time NBA Dunk Contest champion MacMcClung is headed again to the Orlando Magic’s coaching camp this fall and is probably going headed to their G-League crew — the Osceola Magic — for a second straight yr.
McClung agreed to an Exhibit 10 contract with the Magic, a narrative damaged by Shams Charania of The Athletic and confirmed by Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel. An Exhibit 10 contract brings a participant into the crew’s coaching camp and — assuming they don’t play their approach onto the NBA roster (which is very unlikely on this case) — they get a bonus of as much as $77,500 for signing with the membership’s G-League crew.
The Magic have 15 absolutely assured contracts, a full roster, already on the books for the approaching season. The one approach for a participant to be added to the Magic roster is for the membership to launch a type of gamers and eat the cash (or for an harm to open a roster spot).
McClung was named G-League MVP final season averaging 25.7 factors and 6.6 assists a sport, taking pictures 36% from 3, however was not known as as much as the NBA by the Magic or another crew.
McClung has lived on the perimeter of the NBA since coming into the NBA undrafted out of Texas Tech in 2021. He has had brief contacts with the Lakers, Bulls and 76ers, plus hung out within the Warriors and Magic organizations (via all that he has appeared in 4 NBA video games for a complete of 65 minutes).
