According to the report of OOSSports reporter Rob Murrows, the Washington Wizards have cut off JT Thor, a forward player who represents South Sudan.
Sol was born in August 2002. He is 23 years old, 206cm tall and weighs 92kg. He is a forward player from Auburn University selected by the Charlotte Hornets in the 37th pick in the second round in the 2021 NBA Draft. In the NBA, in addition to picking him and cutting him Wizards, Saul also played for the Cleveland Cavaliers. In the NBA regular season, Saul has played 185 games in total, with averaging 12.2 minutes per game, with averaging 3.2 points, 2.1 rebounds, 0.5 assists, 0.3 steals, and 0.4 blocks, 0.4 turnovers and 0.9 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 41.9%, a three-point shooting percentage of 31.7%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 87.5%. Last summer, the Hornets did not renew their contract with Saul. He first signed a two-way contract with the Cavaliers, but was cut by the team in March this year. The Wizards then claimed Thor's two-way contract.
In the NBA field last season, Saul played 20 times for the Cavaliers and Wizards, with averaging 12.5 minutes per game, with averaging 3.5 points, 2.4 rebounds, 0.3 assists, 0.4 steals, and 0.5 blocks, 0.5 turnovers and 0.8 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 42.4%, a three-point shooting percentage of 28.6%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 68.2%. In the NBA Development League last season, Saul played 32 times on behalf of the Cavaliers' subordinate team Cleveland Swordsmen and the Wizards' subordinate team, Gogo, and 31.1 minutes per game, with averaging 14.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 0.7 steals and 1.5 blocks, and 2.2 turnovers and 2.4 fouls. His shooting percentage was 47.6%, his three-point shooting percentage was 31.5%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 71.1%. Thor's performance in the NBA last season was very average. He did not show off his defensive end and his performance on the offensive end did not improve at all. Even in the NBA Development League, Saul has no way to perform dominantly. In this case, it seems reasonable to be a matter of being cut by the team.
From the perspective of the Wizards, after quitting Thor, they successfully freed up a place in a two-way contract. Next, they also have the opportunity to pick up some players who have been cut by other teams. They will obviously have more training value than Thor, who is already a useless vote. As for Thor, although he has a very good physical talent and is considered to have a super high ceiling, the fact is that he has not made substantial progress after four seasons in the NBA. Considering that he can no longer sign a two-way contract, it is difficult for him to stay in the NBA in the new season?
