The Cleveland Cavaliers intend to sign forward JT Thor to a two-way contract, per Shams Charania of The Athletic.
This idea was something I discussed on the Hoops Wire Live show a day earlier, as Thor is a big man who’s coming off a fine showing in the Olympics with South Sudan.
Thor, 21, is 6-foot-7 and was selected by the Detroit Pistons in the second round of the 2021 NBA Draft. He was immediately traded to the Charlotte Hornets. He appeared in 63 games last season, averaging 3.2 points and 2.3 rebounds.
Thor is represented by agent Aaron Turner, a product of Orange, Ohio, outside of Cleveland.
