Suns Waive McDermott, FernandesTo Set Roster

After signing them on Friday, the Suns have officially waived forward Sean McDermott (6'6''-SF-1996, college: Butler) and wing Nathan Fernandes (6'9''-F/C-2003), according to the transaction log at NBA.com.
McDermott, 28, appeared in 18 games for the Grizzlies on a two-way deal back in 2020/21, but hasn’t been in the NBA since then. The former Butler Bulldog spent a few seasons in the G League with the Memphis Hustle before continuing his career overseas, playing in Italy and Turkey the past two years.
Fernandes, 22, is a 6’9" wing. He has spent several seasons playing professionally for Franca in Brazil, his home country. Both players are likely to suit up this fall for the Valley Suns. The Exhibit 10 contracts they signed with Phoenix will make them eligible for bonuses worth up to $85,300 if they spend at least 60 days with the Suns’ G League team. As a result of the cuts, Phoenix now has 14 players on standard contracts and three on two-way deals, so the team’s roster is set for the regular season. The Suns could fill their 15th standard roster spot before their season gets underway next week, but likely won’t do so since they’re operating slightly over the luxury tax line.
