Orlando Magic Sign Jalen Crutcher Waive Johnell Davis Preseason Roster Update

The Orlando Magic have made roster adjustments by waiving guard Johnell Davis and signing guard Jalen Crutcher to an Exhibit 10 training camp contract. Crutcher, a three-time All-Atlantic 10 honoree from Dayton, has primarily played in the G League but appeared briefly in one NBA game for the New Orleans Pelicans in 2024. His G League experience includes stints with the Greensboro Swarm and Birmingham Squadron, and he has previously signed a 10-day NBA deal and a two-way contract with the Pelicans. If waived by the Magic, Crutcher is expected to play for the Osceola Magic, Orlando's G League affiliate, making him eligible for a bonus up to $85,300. This move maintains the Magic's full 21-player preseason roster and continues their strategy of developing talent through Exhibit 10 contracts and G League affiliations.
