Former NC State Guard C.J. Williams has signed a deal with the Los Angeles Clippers. The contract is a two-way deal, which means that Williams will spend a majority of his time with the Clips G-League affiliate team in Ontario, California.
Williams deal is partial/non-guaranteed prior to the beginning of the regular season.
Here is a breakdown of what a two-way deal really means:
A two-way contract can only be up to two years, and no bonuses, extra compensation or options for future years can be included. The NBA season is split into 170 days, and a player on a two-way deal can only spend 45 days with their NBA team receiving the minimum salary, which is set at $815,615 for the 2017-18 season.
