Will Magnay update
Any got any updates on how he's travelling ? Impressing ? Getting close to any game time ?. It’s too silent on the western front.

Nothing, just chillin on the bench behind adams, williamson, hayes, melli, Hernangomez, Gabriel...
I think he will have to wait for g league.
If he impresses there expect to see him given a run.
I'm not sure how two way contracts work as to whether there is a minimum games requirement.
Was probably better off signing for the pelicans and then stashing him here in the nbl until end of 21.

There are a minimum time requirements with the NBA team when they sign a two-way contract. The G-League season doesn't start until Feb I think they're playing in a bubble in Orlando like the NBA did last season.
When the G-League season is done the Pelicans will recall him and then they'll probably play him in a few games to get a look at him before picking up his option for next season.

He will be cut soon. Look for him to sign in the NBL.
Melli and Hernangomez are in front of him, cmon...

Pelicans PR:
The Pelicans have transferred two-way player Will Magnay to the @ErieBayHawks of the @nbagleague.
He is off to a good start averaging around 16 to 18ppg in first three games.
Playing at Erie Bay Hawks.

Has officially made his debut today against the Lakers.
Only 3mins but well done, now that G League has finished hope to see more opportunities for him with the Pelicans.
He did play badly, what's wrong with saying that. First game butter fingers perhaps.

Many Aussies had minimal impact in their first NBA games including Mills, Baynes, Dellavedova and Ingles.
I'm not saying Magnay will reach the level those guys are now but it shows 1 game to be a minor sample size.
Pelicans still have almost 30 regular season games remaining so hope to see more of Magnay.

More importantly did the NBA commentators call him Two-Way Magnay?
