A two-way contract allows players to spend a total of 45 days on an NBA roster and the rest of the season with a G-League affiliate. The NBA’s new collective bargaining agreement introduced the two two-way roster slots, according to SB Nation.
Two-way contract players won’t impact the original 15 roster spots, according to NBA.com.
Cooley averaged 9.2 points per game and 6.6 rebounds per game during the Las Vegas Summer League. The 6-foot-9 big man last played with MHP Riesen Ludwigsburg, a basketball club in Germany.
