The Magic have filled the 21st and final spot on their training camp roster by signing free agent wing Alex Morales, the team announced in a press release (Twitter link).
While Orlando’s announcement doesn’t specify what type of contract Morales received, Jason Beede of The Orlando Sentinel hears it’s a non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 deal (Twitter link), making Morales eligible for a bonus worth up to $85,300 if he’s waived before the season and spends at least 60 days with the G League’s Osceola Magic.
Morales, who starred in college at Wagner, went undrafted in 2022 and has spent each of the past three years with the Magic’s G League affiliate while also suiting up for Osos de Manati in Puerto Rico during the NBA offseason. This is his fourth straight offseason of signing a training camp deal with Orlando.
A 6’6″ guard/forward, Morales averaged 9.1 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.5 steals on .510/.333/.657 shooting in 42 games with Osceola last season (29.1 MPG). The 27-year-old also averaged 14.7 PPG, 6.6 RPG, 4.7 APG and 2.3 SPG on .572/.296/.813 shooting in 15 games with Osos de Manati, per RealGM.
