This last Friday, like in the previous two games, the best player of the match was Max Christie, who is about to have his year 2 in the NBA and seems ready to participate more in coach Ham's rotation.

But tonight, during the game against the Charlotte Hornets, Christie could have been a better player on the court, but the undrafted two-way center Colin Castleton has been shining.

GM Rob Pelinka and coach Darvin Ham could wait to see how Castleton continues to develop in the Summer League to give him a standard contract to make him the backup center.

His performances show that he could be following Austin Reaves' steps, which had a two-way contract and then was upgraded to a standard contract. Colin could be following that path. In the first quarter alone, Castleton scored 10 points and had four rebounds.
