The Phoenix Suns have claimed two-way player Theo Maledon off waivers. Maledon was waived by the Charlotte Hornets at the end of last week.
Phoenix has had an open two-way roster spot all season. Charlotte waived Maledon to add Nathan Mensah for some additional frontcourt depth.
In 13 NBA games this season, Maledon has averaged 4.2 points and 2.2 assists in 15.4 minutes per game. With several backcourt injuries last season, Maledon appeared in 44 NBA games for the Hornets. He averaged 6.7 points and 3.5 assists before re-signing on a second two-way deal with Charlotte over the summer.
