so my understanding is that each NBA team can have 2 players (3?) signed to 2 way contracts. Those guys make $350k a season (roughly) and it is prorated by the # of games played. These guys can shuttle between their NBA team and the G-League affiliate.Bucks signed him to a 2-way.
Good luck Pete!!Bucks signed him to a 2-way.
2-way salary for the full season this year is over $578,000. That's what Pat Spencer has been on all year.so my understanding is that each NBA team can have 2 players (3?) signed to 2 way contracts.

The rest of the G-League is just a collection of free agents who make $60k or whatever - but they play for a specific G-League team, with no real ties to that franchise.
So Pete Nance has earned a nice contract relative to his G-League teammates.
Is that basically right?

Pete was on a 2-way with Cleveland last year and Philly this season. I think he was waived like 2 weeks ago by Philly so he should still get most of the full salary for the year.
Boo signed a 2-way with the Knicks in early November but was waived in late December, so he's only getting regular G-League money right now with Westchester. I'm not sure why he was waived from the 2-way given that the Knicks currently have 2 empty 2-way slots.
There's a deadline to make the contract guaranteed or waive. It's a decision the teams have to make and save, or not, in the grand scheme of NBA budgets, a few dollars.That quite helpful. Thanks. Didn't know Buie had been waived. Its a huge difference between 2-way and regular G-league. One is worth it and the other isn't.
