Former Syracuse basketball player Buddy Boeheim signs with NBA's Oklahoma City Thunder After being waived by Detroit two days ago, Buddy Boeheim signs an Exhibit 10 deal with OKC.

JULY 1, 2024 • SYRACUSE.COM

Inks deal with OKC The Thunder signed Boeheim to an Exhibit 10 deal Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Impact Boeheim will get the opportunity to play for the Thunder's Summer League team this offseason. The 24-year-old appeared in 10 games for the Pistons last season, during which he averaged 3.4 points, 1.0 rebounds and 0.3 assists across 8.4 minutes per game.

Notches 13 points Boeheim finished with 13 points (4-8 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 22 minutes during Sunday's 114-101 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact Playing in just his third NBA game, Boeheim saw his biggest workload yet and set multiple career-high marks. The Pistons are dialing back all their main players and are being cautious with injuries given their place in the standings, so Boeheim could get an extended look down the stretch.

MARCH 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Inks two-way deal The Pistons signed Boeheim to a two-year, two-way deal Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Boeheim is averaging 15.6 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 26.7 minutes across 20 appearances for the Pistons' G League affiliate, the Motor City Cruise, this season. Boeheim has also displayed proficient outside shooting, converting 43.8 percent of his 7.7 three-point attempts per contest.

FEBRUARY 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Cut by Detroit Boeheim was waived by Detroit on Saturday, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Boeheim spent the entire 2022-23 season as one of the Pistons' two-way players, but he appeared in just 10 games with Detroit and didn't distinguish himself enough at the NBA or G League level to stay under contract heading into his second professional season. By virtue of having re-signed with Detroit on an Exhibit 10 deal prior to being cut Saturday, Boeheim will stay in the organization and will head to the G League's Motor City Cruise.

OCTOBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back in rotation Friday Boeheim recorded no counting stats in six minutes during Friday's 122-115 win over the Pacers.

Impact Boheim played six minutes in the victory, just the ninth time he has seen the court all season. With the Pistons mailing it in for the season, managers should get used to seeing some weird and wacky rotations, meaning Boheim could remain in the rotation for the final game of the season against the Bulls on Sunday.

APRIL 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled to NBA Boeheim is available for Wednesday's game versus Cleveland, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Boeheim will be with the Pistons on Wednesday as part of his two-way deal. However, he hasn't taken part in any action at the NBA level since Oct. 21, so there shouldn't be much to look at here from a fantasy standpoint.

Impact Boeheim, one of the Pistons' two two-way players who has logged just one minute at the NBA level during his rookie campaign, hadn't played in the G League since Dec. 20 due to an unspecified toe injury. He looked to be on a light minutes restriction in his return to action Thursday but should see an uptick in playing time for Motor City now that he's gotten one game under his belt following a one-month absence. He'll remain on assignment in the G League while the Pistons play the Bucks on Monday, and Boeheim is unlikely to get an appointment back to the NBA team in the near future so long as Detroit has most of its key wing players available.

Remains out with toe injury Boeheim (toe) is out for Sunday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Boeheim, who is currently assigned to the G League's Motor City Cruise, hasn't played for the minor-league club or for the NBA team since Dec. 20 due to a toe injury. The Pistons haven't provided a timeline for when he might return to action.
