The Magic have waived guard Alex Morales one day after signing him to an Exhibit 10 contract, per Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel.

Morales is expected to return to the Magic’s G League affiliate, now located in Osceola. He spent last season with the same franchise.

Playing for Wagner College, Morales was a two-time Northeast Conference (NEC) Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year award winner, averaging 15.9 points (45.4% FG), 6.9 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.5 steals throughout his collegiate career.

Despite going undrafted, Morales, 25, had an impressive 2022 Summer League stint with the Golden State Warriors, and as a result, was able to land an Exhibit 10 deal with the Magic last season.

Morales, 6-foot-6, played 30 games for the Lakeland Magic (now Osceola) of the G League during the 2022-2023 season, averaging 6.5 points (47.1% FG), 5.3 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 1.1 steals.
