Magic's Wendell Moore: Teases double-double in SL loss
Moore notched 14 points (5-11 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and eight rebounds in 18 minutes during Friday's 92-69 Summer League loss to Dallas.
Moore paced the Magic in scoring amid a miserable shooting display by the team, as just two Orlando players reached double figures in scoring Friday. The 23-year-old has tallied at least 14 points in four straight Summer League games, which may give him some appeal as a free agent for squads in need of swingman depth ahead of training camp this fall.

Magic's Wendell Moore: Scores 17 in SL loss
Moore totaled 17 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, two steals and one block across 26 minutes in Wednesday's 94-90 Summer League loss to the Nets.
Moore tied Noah Penda for a team-high 17 points in Wednesday's loss, following up his double-double performance from Tuesday against the Thunder. He's remained a consistent part of the Magic's Summer League rotation and will look to keep it going Friday against the Mavericks.

Magic's Wendell Moore: Double-double in SL loss
Moore totaled 14 points (3-11 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 10 rebounds, two steals and one assist over 28 minutes in Tuesday's 92-75 Summer League loss to the Thunder.
Moore wasn't particularly efficient from the field Tuesday but went perfect at the charity stripe and grabbed double-digit boards to notch a double-double. The 2022 first-round pick was waived by the Hornets earlier this offseason and is using Summer League as an opportunity to improve his stock and earn a deal with the Magic or another team for the 2025-26 campaign.

Magic's Wendell Moore: Scores 22 in Summer League
Moore recorded 22 points (9-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and one steal in 22 minutes during Sunday's 89-86 Summer League loss to the Raptors.
Moore put together a strong offensive display Sunday, efficiently scoring a game-high 22 points. This was a great bounce-back game for Moore, who scored just two points on 0-of-4 from the field in his first Summer League game.

Hornets' Wendell Moore: Scores eight points in 15 minutes
Moore finished Sunday's 93-86 loss to Boston with eight points (3-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists over 15 minutes.
Moore didn't play much during Sunday's loss to Boston but took advantage of his 15 minutes on the floor by scoring eight points. The Duke product finishes his third season in the NBA averaging 4.2 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game, shooting 46.8 percent from the field and a career-high 34.1 percent from deep.

Hornets' Wendell Moore: Sees playing time Wednesday
Moore contributed nine points (4-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 126-96 loss to the Raptors.
With the Hornets down several players Wednesday due to a slew of injuries, Moore saw on-court action for the first time since March 30. He managed to lead Charlotte's bench in scoring despite missing three of his four three-point attempts, and he could see some meaningful playing time over the Hornets' final two games of the regular season if they are still short-handed.

Hornets' Wendell Moore: Healthy inactive Wednesday
The Hornets list Moore as inactive for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
As a two-way player, Moore is eligible to suit up in just three more games for the Hornets for the rest of the season unless Charlotte upgrades him to a standard deal. The team is likely holding Moore out to preserve his games count, and he'll have to sit out three more times over the Hornets' final six contests after Wednesday.

Hornets' Wendell Moore: Minimal impact in win
Moore totaled two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two assists and one rebound in 20 minutes in Thursday's 115-98 win over the Knicks.
Moore played at least 20 minutes for the third consecutive game but contributed sparingly Monday. Since returning from a concussion in early March, he's appeared in seven contests, averaging 4.6 points and 3.0 rebounds in 14.7 minutes per game. The 23-year-old is on a two-way contract but has recently maintained a relatively consistent role as a reserve wing with the injury-depleted Hornets.

Hornets' Wendell Moore: Cleared to play Monday
Moore (concussion) is available for Monday's game against the Warriors.
After missing the past two games, Moore has cleared the concussion protocol and will return to Charlotte's lineup Monday. Over his last three games, the 2022 second-rounder averaged 8.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, 0.3 steals and 0.7 three-pointers in 20.4 minutes.

Hornets' Wendell Moore: Likely to play Monday
Moore (concussion) is listed as probable for Monday's game against Golden State.
Moore has missed the last two games due to a concussion, and he'll have to clear the league's protocol in order to return Monday. He averaged 6.0 points and 3.5 rebounds over 18.8 minutes per game in his four outings before suffering a concussion.

Hornets' Wendell Moore: Remaining in concussion protocol
Moore (concussion) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Wizards.
Moore suffered a concussion during Tuesday's loss to Golden State, and he'll miss a second straight game as a result. He'll need to clear the league's concussion protocol in order to return against the Warriors on Monday. KJ Simpson and Damion Baugh should continue to see a slight uptick in playing time due to Moore's absence.

Hornets' Wendell Moore: In concussion protocol
Moore is in concussion protocol and is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Dallas.
Moore had appeared in each of Charlotte's last four games, averaging 6.0 points, 3.5 rebounds and 0.5 three-pointers in 18.8 minutes per contest. He appears to have entered the protocol at some point after Tuesday's loss to the Warriors, putting his availability for Thursday in jeopardy. Even if he's cleared to play against Dallas, Moore could be headed out of the rotation with DaQuan Jeffries (knee) listed as questionable and perhaps on track to return.

Hornets' Wendell Moore: Not playing vs. Dallas
Moore (concussion) is out for Thursday's game against the Mavericks.
Moore notched 12 points and 10 rebounds across 28 minutes in Tuesday's loss to the Warriors, but he landed on the injury report Wednesday with a concussion, and he's not ready to return to action yet. His next chance to suit up will come against the Wizards on Saturday, and his absence could open up bench minutes for players such as Elfrid Payton and KJ Simpson.

Hornets' Wendell Moore: Pops for double-double in loss
Moore amassed 12 points (5-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt) and 10 rebounds across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 128-92 loss to the Warriors.
Although Moore's opportunities with the Hornets will be limited due to his contract restrictions, he was able to make a significant impact in the blowout loss. Moore has struggled to find traction at the next level, and Charlotte is the Duke product's third stop over three seasons after being drafted in the first round by Minnesota in 2022.

Hornets' Wendell Moore: Tallies eight points in blowout
Moore recorded eight points (4-10 FG, 0-1 FT) and two rebounds over 22 minutes during Saturday's 141-88 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Moore scored at least eight points for just the fourth time all season, making the most of what was an embarrassing loss by the Hornets. Given Moore has played only twice in the past nine games, there is no reason to think this performance will lead to increased opportunity moving forward.

Wendell Moore: Inks deal with Charlotte
The Hornets signed Moore to a two-way contract Saturday.
Moore was waived by the Pistons last week but will now split time between the Hornets and their G League affiliate, the Greensboro Swarm. Across 20 NBA appearances in 2024-25, Moore is averaging 3.2 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 11.0 minutes.

Wendell Moore: Cut by Detroit
The Pistons waived Moore on Thursday, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Moore had averaged just 11.0 minutes per game over 20 appearances with the Pistons this season, and his departure won't create an opening in the Detroit rotation. The 2022 first-round pick will hope to latch onto another team elsewhere as a backcourt depth piece.

Pistons' Wendell Moore: Won't play Friday

Pistons' Wendell Moore: Moving back to bench role
Moore is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
The Pistons will tweak their lineup for this contest and Moore will return to the bench, as Ausar Thompson has entered the lineup. Moore is averaging 4.5 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 0.7 steals per game off the bench this season.
