Report: Magic waive C.J. Watson
Reinhold Matay / USA TODAY Sports
The Orlando Magic will waive veteran point guard C.J. Watson, sources told ESPN's Chris Haynes.
Only $1 million of Watson's $5-million salary was guaranteed, and he was made expendable after the Magic nabbed free-agent guard Shelvin Mack in free agency.
The 33-year-old Watson played sparingly since joining the Magic two seasons ago. He averaged 4.5 points and 2.1 assists while shooting 37.1 percent from the field in 17.6 minutes per game.
