That suggests he\u2019ll sign an Exhibit 10 contract, which can be converted to a two-way deal prior to the start of the regular season.<\/p>\n<p>A 6\u20191\u2033 point guard who went undrafted out of Maryland in 2024, Young opened his first professional season with the Grand Rapids Gold, Denver\u2019s G League affiliate, before signing a two-way contract with Chicago in February and finishing the year with the Bulls. He was waived in July to open up a two-way slot for <strong>Yuki Kawamura<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Young logged just 30 total minutes in six games at the NBA level, but starred in the NBAGL, averaging 21.7 points, 7.0 assists, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.9 steals per game in 43 total outings for the Gold and the Windy City Bulls. The 24-year-old struggled with his outside shot for Grand Rapids, but finished the season strong by making 39.7% of his three-point tries in 13 games for Windy City. He was named to the G League\u2019s All-Rookie team and finished third in Rookie of the Year voting.<\/p>\n<p>Young reportedly drew interest from the Perth Wildcats of Australia\u2019s National Basketball League this offseason, but will look to continue his career in the NBA. <strong>Vladislav Goldin<\/strong> and <strong>Myron Gardner<\/strong> currently occupy two-way slots for Miami, but it appears the team will hold a competition in training camp for its third and final opening.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The former Chicago Bull will reportedly get a chance to compete for a two-way contract this fall.
