Javonte Smart: Loses two-way contract
Smart was waived from his two-way deal Saturday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Smart's two-way slot will instead be filled by Kenneth Lofton, who was recently let go by the Grizzlies. Despite Smart's two-way status, he had logged only one NBA minute this season, and he will likely remain an important piece for the 76ers' G League affiliate unless another team picks him up.

76ers' Javonte Smart: Upgraded to two-way deal
The 76ers converted Smart's Exhibit 10 deal to a two-way contract Saturday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Smart will join undrafted rookies Terquavion Smith and Azuolas Tubelis as the 76ers' three two-way players. The 24-year-old guard last saw NBA action in 2021-22, when he made 17 appearances between the Heat and Bucks and averaged 3.0 points and 1.4 rebounds in 11.8 minutes. Though he'll be eligible to suit up for at least 50 of the 76ers' 82 games while under the two-way deal, Smart is likely to see the majority of his playing time with the G League's Delaware Blue Coats.
