    We'll see if Porter makes it to the NBA, but early returns look good for him to at least suit up and get a minute or two for the Cavs at some point.
    Technically he now has an NBA contract, so ... ?

          He has a reserved roster spot and it's under contract. He can play up to 50 senior team games without signing another piece of paper.

            It looks to me like it's definitely 8 o'clock and not 7 tonight.... Cavs -1.5 in the game for anyone who looks at lines. May sprinkle a couple bones on it for something to make it more interesting.

              as I understand it, the 2 way contracts are not guaranteed and can be terminated by the team at any point. So theoretically, they could pull the 2 way designation from Porter if he doesn't pan out. He still has to suit up an official game to be considered an NBA player.

                I think you are confusing with an Exhibit 10. Two-way contracts guarantee a roster spot. Or maybe I am the one confusing them, but I don't believe so.

                  Are NBA 2 way contracts guaranteed? What is a two-way contract paid?

                  Players on two-way contracts are paid a flat rate that is equal to half of the league's minimum salary. However, these contracts are not guaranteed, so the players can be cut at any point, and will only receive their salary up to that point.

                    I also think a two-way contract, along with the reserved roster spot, counts against the 20-man camp invite limit and therefore effectively guarantees a camp invite (edit: unless they are cut early per ShockingButTrue's find).

                      Nice.

                        Porter with 6 boards and 2 assists in the first 8 minutes. Only 2 points, but he's on;y taken 1 shot.
                        The future's so bright - I gotta wear shades.
