The Orlando Magic have signed forward Phillip Wheeler to an Exhibit 10 agreement for training camp, Jake Fischer of The Stein Line reported on X.
Wheeler, 23, appeared in five games for the Philadelphia 76ers last season, averaging 1.6 points and 1.6 rebounds across 8.8 minutes per contest. The 6-foot-9 wing also logged 19 outings with the G League’s Texas Legends, where he posted 16.9 points and 5.6 rebounds a night while connecting on 36.2% of his three-point attempts.
Orlando had already issued Exhibit 10 deals to Justin Minaya, Reece Beekman, Lester Quinones and Colin Castleton. With one two-way slot still open, the five invitees are expected to compete for that roster spot during camp.
Under Exhibit 10 rules, any of the five players who are waived before the regular season and then spend at least 60 days with the Magic’s G League affiliate, the Osceola Magic, would be eligible for bonuses of up to $85,300.
