The Chicago Bulls have signed guard Yuki Kawamura to a two-way deal over the weekend. This doesn't come as a shock given how well Kawamura has been playing in the summer league. In five summer league contests, Kawamura averaged 10.2 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 6.2 assists in 23.9 minutes per game. The 24-year-old saw limited action during his rookie season with the Memphis Grizzlies last year. He averaged 1.6 points, 0.5 rebounds, and 0.9 assists in 4.2 minutes per game in 22 games. Honestly, it wasn't enough playing time to give Kawamura a fair assessment. It's unclear how much he'll actually play in Chicago, but he has earned a chance to show what he can do.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Yuki Kawamura (shoulder) has only played 15 games with the Grizzlies this season, but the two-way player will be able to play after being listed as probable with a left shoulder sprain. He has been out for the past three games and is only averaging 3.3 minutes per contest. Kawamura could potentially see a few more minutes with both Ja Morant (shoulder) and Desmond Bane (ankle) sidelined, but Luke Kennard (hamstring) will be available after initially being ruled out, so the veteran could take some of the extra usage as well. Rookie Cam Spencer has also been getting time while Kawamura has been sidelined and could be competition for minutes on the end of the Grizzlies bench in the backcourt.
