Magic Make Two Roster Moves, Continue Reshuffling of Exhibit 10 Contracts

ORLANDO, Fla. – The Orlando Magic continue to be active in reshuffling their Exhibit 10 contracts as the regular season approaches.

The team announced it signed free agent guard Alex Morales on Wednesday, waiving center Robert Baker II in a corresponding move. As a result, the Magic's G League affiliate Osceola roster continues to take shape.

Baker II was in camp for three practices this week, and is likely a strong candidate to remain with the G League Magic. Per contract terms, players with an Exhibit 10 contract can earn a bonus of up to $77,500 if they sign with a team's G League affiliate and remain with them for 60 days.

Morales, a 6-6, 195-pound guard, played in 34 games and made nine starts with Osceola last season. He averaged 9.7 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.3 steals a game in 25 minutes a game. He shot 52.3 percent from the floor.

Previously undrafted after three seasons at Wagner College, Morales has 64 career G League games under his belt – averaging 8.0 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.2 steals a game in that span. During his time with Wagner, he was the 2021-22 NEC Player and Defensive Player of the Year.

He'll wear No. 11 with the Magic.
