NBA veteran point guard joins the Orlando Magic
Joseph last saw action in the NBA with the Golden State Warriors in the 2023-24 NBA season but the Dubs sent him to the Indiana Pacers ahead of last February’s NBA trade deadline. The Pacers, however, immediately waived Joseph, who averaged just 2.4 points, 1.6 assists, and 1.2 rebounds in 26 appearances for the Warriors.
Selected in the first round of the 2011 NBA Draft as the 29th overall pick of that class by the San Antonio Spurs, Joseph has been a journeyman of sorts in the league. He has suited up for a total of six teams in the NBA, including the Toronto Raptors, Detroit Pistons, and Sacramento Kings.
The former Texas Longhorns star won an NBA title with the Spurs in 2014.
