The Orlando Magic are converting guard Mac McClung to a two-way NBA contract, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania on Saturday.
McClung is the back-to-back slam dunk contest champion but has yet to find a consistent spot on an NBA roster, playing in four career games with the Los Angeles Lakers, Chicago Bulls and Philadelphia 76ers.
With the 76ers locked into their playoff spot in 2022-23, McClung played 33 minutes in the regular-season finale and totaled 20 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists.
McClung was the G League MVP in 2023-24 after leading the league in scoring at 25.7 points per game while playing for the Osceola Magic.
A viral sensation in high school for his high-flying dunks, McClung became the fifth player in NBA history to win back-to-back dunk contests with his victory in February. He said at the time that he would think about returning in 2025 to go for a three-peat.
McClung had signed an Exhibit 10 contract -- a one-year, non-guaranteed training camp deal -- with the Orlando Magic in September.
