I don't even consider two-way contracts as part of the team.

They are joke players.

G-Leaguers who maybe someday might join the team.
The two-way contract has given us Duncan Robinson, Lu Dort, Monte Morris, Chris Boucher, Alex Caruso, Shake Milton, Naz Reid and Torrey Craig recently.

Worth the punt.

Wow, that is a good number of success stories. Quality rotation players.

It is obviously outweighed by many nothing players, but I think it can be interesting, especially for atypical athletes.
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

The 2-way contracts are a mechanism available to teams.  May as well try to make he most of them.  There is a huge amount of parity in the players that either just make it in the NBA or just don't.  Most 2-way players probably won't make it but a few will.  I have no idea who specifically the Celtics should fill these slots with.  Begarin for example, this may be a great way to accelerate his development.  It also seems like a good way to start to develop a young big.  Many big don't show really development until later when they are physically more mature.
