Seabron spent last season as a two-way player with the New Orleans Pelicans. He averaged 2.3 points and 1.2 rebounds over six games in 2023-24.

Robinson struggled with left facet syndrome late last regular season, missing nine games. He was able to return for the postseason, and the good news is that the Heat sharpshooter is under no restrictions as training camp approaches. “We took all the necessary steps, seeing who we needed to see,” Robinson told the Herald. “Not restricted in any way. Have [not been limited] for the better part of eight weeks. Playing pickup. No limitations. It’s still a focus and emphasis in terms of what I’m doing in the weight room.” While the Heat did lose Caleb Martin in free agency, Robinson remains in a difficult spot regarding fantasy viability. There could be times when he’s worth streaming, but Robinson is not someone fantasy managers need to target in drafts.

The Timberwolves are rounding out their training camp roster, with Omoruyi and Mays being the latest additions. Fantasy managers should not expect either to be impactful, as Omoruyi and Mays will not be on guaranteed contracts. The latter has one season of two-way contract eligibility remaining, while the former does not.

Undrafted after completing his college career at Pittsburgh, Hinson agreed to a two-way contract in late June. However, with the Lakers reportedly working to sign Christian Koloko to a two-way, freeing up a slot was needed. Hinson is the odd man out, and there’s a feeling that the combination of size and perimeter shooting ability will get him a look elsewhere.

Morris’ contract is not guaranteed, and he will compete for the Knicks’ final standard contract slot in training camp. That puts him in the same category as Landry Shamet and Chuma Okeke, who have also agreed to non-guaranteed deals with the Knicks. This will be Morris’ second go-round with New York, as he averaged 19.6 points per game during the 2019-20 season before being traded to the Clippers at the February deadline. Morris is unlikely to impact fantasy basketball if he makes the Knicks’ opening night roster.

HoopsHype’s Michael Scotto first reported Bouyea’s departure, and the Spurs made it official shortly after. Bouyea spent time with the Trail Blazers and Spurs last season, with the latter signing him to a two-way deal in March. San Antonio has one open two-way slot to work with heading into training camp, with David Duke Jr. and Harrison Ingram currently under contract.

This will be Collins’ second run with the Warriors. Signed by Golden State on October 16, the former Saint Louis point guard was waived two days later. Collins spent last season with the Warriors’ G League affiliate, and a similar fate may await him this time. He isn’t a player fantasy managers should concern themselves with during their draft preparations.

Less than 24 hours after the mutual interest between the two parties was initially reported, Koloko will sign with the Lakers. According to Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times, the contract is expected to be a two-way. If cleared to play by the NBA’s fitness panel, as blood clots ended his time with the Raptors, Koloko would potentially give the Lakers another option at the center position. Anthony Davis has made it known that he prefers the power forward role, and Christian Wood recently underwent knee surgery.

The former top five pick agreed to a team-friendly deal that will keep him around as a defensive option on the wing. His offensive game hasn’t grown much since they drafted him in 2020, but he did shoot a career-high 39.1% from beyond the arc last season. If he can continue to shoot that well, he’ll be an impactful 3-and-D option for years to come. Unfortunately, he hasn’t been able to turn the defensive ability into defensive stats, which has limited his value in fantasy basketball.

Shamet has been a solid floor spacer for the entirety of his career, but he won’t be more than a depth piece for New York. And that’s if he can make the roster, as an Exhibit 9 contract is non-guaranteed. If Shamet can lock down a roster spot, his role will likely be too small for him to impact fantasy basketball significantly.
