3:31pm: The Thunder have confirmed that Hall accepted his qualifying offer, meaning his new two-way deal comes with a $50K partial guarantee.
12:30pm: The Thunder have re-signed small forward Josh Hall to a two-way contract, according to NBA.com’s transactions log.
Hall likely signed the qualifying offer he received from Oklahoma City at the start of August. It carries a $50K guarantee and serves as a two-way contract for the upcoming season.
However, it doesn’t necessarily mean he’s a lock to fill one of the Thunder’s two-way slots when the season begins. Because of the minimal financial commitment, teams are willing to move on from two-way players, as we saw earlier today with the Sixers and Rayjon Tucker.
Hall, 20, earned the two-way deal after coming to camp last year on an Exhibit 10 contract. He got into 21 games, averaging 4.1 points and 2.8 rebounds in 16 minutes per night. He also played one game for OKC’s affiliate in the G League.
I actually thought he would get drafted late 2nd round last year. Pretty sure I liked him at the 4. Cant entirely remember too much, but he had potential for his size. I sort of remember Tayshaun Prince, maybe Paul George? similarities were a couple of the things I was thinking at the time. I remember he was pretty raw, but super athletic
Needs a season the G league team where he can play a lot more.
While the thunder are going to be tanking another year, time needs to go the new players that were drafted Giddey, Poku, Maledon etc.
Later in the year when the full tank is on and SGA gets “hurt” again, then we can bring up guys like this to finish the season.
