The Bucks have signed Jalen Moore to a two-way contract, the team announced on its website.
A 6’8″ forward out of Utah State, Moore was a second team All-Mountain West selection after averaging 17.0 points and 5.5 rebounds during his senior season. He was a 38.3 shooter from 3-point range during his four years with the Aggies.
Under the new collective bargaining agreement, teams can have two-way players on their roster at any time, in addition to their regular 15-man roster. Moore will spend most of the season with Milwaukee’s new G League affiliate, the Wisconsin Herd, and will be limited to 45 days with the Bucks from the time G League training camp opens until the end of the Herd’s season.
Moore is currently playing for the Bucks’ entry in the Las Vegas Summer League.
On Thursday, Milwaukee signed Bronson Koenig of Wisconsin as its other two-way player.
I know what the designation of “two way player” means but find it an odd thing to call a player since we wish all players could play D and O.
