It only took about 15 minutes after the end of the draft for a franchise to quickly acquire the Zag. The 6-0, 180-pound facilitator will be signing a non-guaranteed deal that allows him to play up to 50 games with the big club, but should be spending most of his time in the G-League while developing his game with the Texas Legends.
