Lands two-way deal with Chicago McClung (calf) agreed to a two-way contract with the Bulls on Thursday, Jake Fischer of BleacherReport.com reports.

Impact After being cut loose by the Pacers in early November, McClung caught on with the Bulls' G League affiliate, the Windy City Bulls. Over 24 games for Windy City, McClung averaged 25.4 points, 7.2 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 three-pointers, 1.3 steals and 0.7 blocks in 37.4 minutes per contest. He hadn't taken the floor for Windy City since Jan. 28 due to a right calf injury, but McClung is apparently back to full health. Fischer notes that McClung will join the Bulls in Toronto for Thursday's game against the Raptors, and the 27-year-old guard will likely be part of the rotation while Chicago is likely shorthanded after executing several trades in recent days.

Leads bench in loss McClung closed with 12 points (5-12 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three steals and two rebounds in 19 minutes during Friday's 128-108 loss to the Hawks.

Impact While he struggled mightily from three-point range, McClung led Indiana's second unit in scoring. He was one of five Indiana players to score in double figures. Additionally, the 26-year-old tied the game-high mark in steals. McClung should continue to see meaningful playing time with the Pacers' backcourt plagued by injuries to multiple key contributors.
