The Thunder continue to churn players through their 21st roster spot ahead of the season, announcing today that they’ve waived guard Buddy Boeheim and signed guard Erik Reynolds to replace him.
A former Syracuse standout, Boeheim appeared in 20 NBA regular season games for the Pistons from 2022-24 while on two-way contracts. He spent last season with the Oklahoma City Blue in the G League and averaged 12.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 26.3 minutes per game across 40 outings. Known as a floor-spacer, the 25-year-old knocked down 37.7% of 9.2 three-point attempts per game for the Blue in 2024/25.
Boeheim, who just signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Thunder on Tuesday, is a safe bet to return to OKC’s G League affiliate this fall. He’ll earn an $85,300 bonus on top of his standard NBAGL salary as long as he spends at least 60 days with the Blue.
Reynolds, meanwhile, is joining the Thunder after going undrafted out of Saint Joseph’s in June. As a senior in 2024/25, he averaged 16.0 PPG, 2.9 RPG, and 2.6 APG in 33.9 MPG, but struggled with his shot, making just 38.0% from the floor and 29.8% from beyond the arc. He had been a 37.0% three-point shooter in his first three college seasons.
Reynolds – who left Saint Joseph’s as the school’s all-time leader in several statistical categories, including points – played for the Thunder’s Summer League team in Salt Lake City and Las Vegas in July. He appears likely to join Boeheim with the Oklahoma City Blue as an affiliate player.
