Buddy Boeheim: Signing 2-way with Pistons

[shandeezy7]

Does he pop up to the NBA minimum for any amount of time he spends on their roster? I know lots of borderline MLB catchers have very lucrative careers being on the roster parts of 7 or 8 seasons, while actually playing in only about 100 games for their career.

Buddy might be taking the NBA version of this career track. Just sticking around long enough to get the NBA pension and lifetime healthcare will be incredibly valuable if he decides not to go into coaching.

I believe that's more or less how it works, but if he's not on a two-way deal, I think the only way to end up on the NBA squad is to either sign a full contract with the team or a 10-day contract. Each team is limited to giving a player two 10-day contracts in a season.

I could be wrong, but I'm fairly certain the only guys that can frequently and easily go up and down between the NBA team and their G-League affiliate are guys on two-way deals or guys that have contracts with the NBA team and are sent down for assignment.

Ex 10s are only training camp deals so the pistons can retain his rights for their GLeague team. Need to be on an NBA contract to move from G League to NBA or vice versa.

Right, the only guys that can move back and forth are guys on two-way deals or that have an NBA contract.

That deal will keep him in the Pistons system and get him some NBA PT at some point this year.

Buddy aside I really don't see the Pistons playing for anything but the #1 pick anytime soon.

Only way he will get NBA PT on that is if they convert him back to a two way.

 

[RealMcNeil]

At least he’ll get a shot at the Pistons’ last two-way contract based on training camp. If not, probably better served jumping overseas.

Reading the tea leaves, it looks like he and his agent would possibly prefer another gleague season this year over playing internationally.

That's probably best for Buddy. Let him go play in Europe for a couple years. He can say he made the NBA. Let him get some experience overseas, and maybe next time he gets a chance at the NBA , he can stick with some club as the 3 point shooter off the bench.

Any idea how he’s doing in the G League?

Pistons sure could use him and you’d think he’d get a 7 day somewhere from them to try and end their 20+ game losing streak.

You think Buddy is the missing piece?

39% from three he’s better than the scrubs who have lost 26 straight games and can only help them. I bet if they call him up he gets hot and ends the streak.

yeah he’s def a better shooter (and overall nba player) than Bogdanovic

I know this is sarcastic but it’s amazing to me that Buddy has even made it as far as the G league.

How much are you betting?

 

[FRANKIEFAN]

How much are you betting?

$20 Venmo if Buddy plays in 5 games for Detroit they win 1.

Losing 26 straight is next level awful are these clowns shooting at the wrong basket? Of course a good 3 point shooter would help.

He is also eligible for a 10 day contract as of now — and he can be signed by any team in the NBA not just Detroit.

He can also be signed to a 2 way contract by any team in the NBA not just Detroit) Assuming that team has a spot open)

His rights are not owned by Detroit — just their G league team.

Yeah with the way he’s shooting he might get that 10 day too

 

[Sbucketball]

Buddy had a hand in his face for every one of those too.

 

[Zelda Zonk]

Goodness. “Quick trigger” is right. Looks like he barely even catches the ball before he’s into a shot.

 

[Eric15]

Can we hire Buddy to mentor Justin in how to shoot with only needing six inches of space instead of six feet?

 

[sufandu]

That release has gotten quicker. It'd be cool to see if he can help a team in need of shooting. Can he be somebody's Craig Hodges?
