Josh Dix signed a two-way deal with the Oklahoma City Thunder after going undrafted. The move gives the former Creighton guard a direct path into the NBA structure.
Dix and the Thunder
The deal puts Dix on the Thunder’s two-way track, the roster lane that lets a player attach himself to an NBA team without being on the standard roster full time. For a player who was not selected in the draft, that is the immediate change.
He arrives there as a former Creighton guard and a Council Bluffs Abraham Lincoln product. That background is part of the story because it shows the jump from college program to NBA contract happened without the draft lifting him into the league.
Former Creighton guard
Creighton has another name moving into the NBA system, and Josh Dix is doing it through the path that rewards teams for taking a closer look after the draft ends. The Thunder gave him that chance on a two-way deal, not a standard contract.
That distinction matters inside roster building. A two-way deal keeps a player tied to one NBA team while leaving a different level of roster flexibility than a full standard spot, so Dix’s signing is both an opportunity and a sign that his first step with Oklahoma City is narrower than a full-time place.
What comes next for Dix
The practical next step is simple: Dix is now in the Thunder’s orbit as an undrafted free agent with a two-way deal attached to his name. The open question is how far that path can go, because the contract itself is the first answer, not the last one.
