Although he was not selected to the NBA on during Thursday night’s draft, UCF star Keith Clanton landed a spot on the Orlando Magic’s summer league roster, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
Two sources told the Orlando Sentinel that Clanton would be a part of the Magic’s summer league roster which is a chance for rookies and other NBA hopefuls to gain experience in front of scouts and general managers.
The Boston Celtics, Brooklyn Nets, Detroit Pistons, Houston Rockets, Indiana Pacers, Miami Heat, Oklahoma City Thunder, Philadelphia 76ers, and Utah Jazz will join the Magic for the 2013 Summer League. The league runs from July 7-12 and will be hosted by the Orlando Magic.
Clanton, who played for four years at UCF, finished his career as UCF’s all-time leader in rebounds (1,000), blocks (227), games played (129) and starts (121) and sixth in points (1,718).
“I just want to compete and get a chance,” Clanton told the Orlando Sentinel before the draft.
