Suns sign Jerel McNeal to a 10-day contract
Roster now stands at 15.
The Phoenix Suns have signed guard Jerel McNeal to a 10-day contract.
McNeal, whose first name is pronounced Jah-rell, has averaged 18.5 points, 4.6 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 2.1 steals in 27 games with the Bakersfield Jam this season. The 6-3 guard scored a season-high 40 points on 16-of-23 shooting for the Suns’ NBA Development League affiliate on March 7 at Austin.
A two-time NBA D-League All-Star, this is McNeal’s third career NBA regular season signing though he has yet to appear in an NBA game. The 27-year-old previously spent 10 days with the New Orleans Hornets from March 9-19, 2011, and ended the season with the Utah Jazz from March 27-April 17, 2013. Currently in his fourth career D-League season with Bakersfield (2012-15) and the Rio Grande Valley Vipers (2010-11), McNeal is the 55th GATORADE Call-Up from the D-League to the NBA this season.
