Oklahoma City Thunder

• Alex Ducas, Saint Mary's: The Athletic's Shams Charania reported on Thursday that OKC signed Ducas to a two-way contract. The 6-7 guard spent five seasons with Saint Mary's, and he's 23 years old. Ducas averaged 9.9 points and 5.6 rebounds this past season, and he boasts a career 3-point percentage of 40.6%. It won't be easy to stick with OKC, which added three players via the draft to an already-deep roster. But Ducas' combination of size and 3-point shooting gives him a chance.
• Malevy Leons, Bradley: DraftExpress' Jon Chepkevich reported on Thursday that OKC signed Leons to an Exhibit-10 deal, a non-guaranteed contract that gives teams the option to convert it to a two-way contract. The 6-9 forward averaged 13.8 points and 7.1 rebounds as a senior this past season. Leons held a workout with OKC prior to the draft. And while he's an older prospect at 24, he has the potential to become a 3-and-D player at the next level.
• Jack Gohlke, Oakland: RookieWire's Cody Taylor reported on Thursday that Gohlke will join OKC for Summer League. The 6-3 guard averaged 13.1 points and 4.1 rebounds on 37.6% shooting from deep as a graduate student this past season, and he gained national recognition for scoring 32 points in a win over Kentucky during the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. Gohlke held a workout with OKC prior to the draft. Now, he'll get a chance to make his case for a spot on the team during Summer League.
• Tre Mitchell, Kentucky: KSR's Jack Pilgrim reported on Friday that Mitchell agreed to a Summer League deal with OKC. The 6-9 center averaged 10.7 points and 7.2 rebounds as a senior this past season. While he doesn't necessarily excel in any department, Mitchell does a little bit of everything. He's a skilled big man who can knock down the occasional 3-pointer, and he's a solid defender. Mitchell is also an older prospect at 23, but he'll get a chance to boost his stock in Summer League play.
• Cormac Ryan, North Carolina: The North Carolina men’s basketball team announced on Friday that Ryan signed an Exhibit-10 deal with OKC. The 6-5 guard averaged 11.5 points and 2.8 rebounds as a senior this past season, and he shot 35.4% from deep. Ryan is an unselfish player who scores within the flow of an offense, and he often uses his size advantage in the backcourt to post up smaller defenders. Ryan is already 25 years old, but he’ll look to carve out a role in OKC’s Summer League rotation.
• Clarence Daniels, New Hampshire: WMUR9's Jonathan Marshall reported on Friday that Daniels will join OKC for Summer League. The 6-6 forward averaged 19.4 points and 9.6 rebounds on 36.3% shooting from deep as a senior this past season. Daniels held a workout with the Thunder prior to the draft, and he's looking to become the first player in program history to make the NBA. After going undrafted earlier this week, he'll get a shot to prove himself in Summer League.

• Trey Alexander, Creighton: The Creighton men's basketball team announced on Thursday that Alexander signed a two-way contract with Denver. The 6-4 guard is a former Heritage Hall standout who spent three seasons with Creighton. Alexander averaged 17.6 points and 5.7 rebounds this past season, which earned him a spot on the All-Big East second team. The 21-year-old prospect now joins a Denver team that's looking for guard depth. The Nuggets traded Reggie Jackson to Charlotte on Thursday, and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope became an unrestricted free agent that same day by declining his player option.
