The Oklahoma City Thunder signed a pair of players to two-way contracts, the team announced Wednesday.
Undrafted rookie forward Josh Hall and second-year center Moses Brown are joining the organization.
“We’re excited about them. They’re intriguing players,” head coach Mark Daigneault said. “Two guys again, like the rest of our group, really eager to learn. Both have great size for their position, both are very rangy, athletic. A lot of raw tools there.”
Brown, listed at 7-foot-1 and 245 pounds, spent the majority of his time in the G League last season, where he averaged 14.4 points, 7.7 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in 19.4 minutes per game while shooting 64.1% from the floor.
He appeared in nine games with the Portland Trail Blazers.
Brown spent one year of college at UCLA. He averaged 9.7 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.9 blocks per game.

Hall was a fifth-year student at Moravian Prep in North Carolina. Listed as a four-star prospect on the 247Sports Composite rankings, he dominated the high school court.
Listed at 6-foot-8 and 200 pounds, Hall averaged 24 points per game and led Moravian Prep to a 34-3 record, according to the Charlotte Observer.
He averaged 20.7 points and 7.7 rebounds per game at the John Wall Holiday Invitational.
Both are listed on the Thunder’s training camp roster.
“It’s early, but so far have shown the type of qualities of people that improve,” Daigneault said. “They work hard, they pay attention, they try to get it right, and they have embraced our environment and our culture so far.”
