Grading the Jazz: two-way players Micah Potter, Johnny Juzang and Jason Preston showing promise

Every NBA team is allowed to carry three two-way contracts in addition to their regular 15-man roster. Players on two-way deals can be active on the NBA roster for up to 50 games during the regular season. When they are not on the active list, they are assigned to the team's G League affiliate. The purpose of these two-way deals is to find players who may have been overlooked previously — whether they were undrafted, are late bloomers or just had a few question marks surrounding them — and give them an opportunity to prove that they deserve a full NBA contract.
