Frank Mason: Scores 14 in Wisconsin debut
Rotowire
Mason registered 14 points (6-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven assists, four rebounds and a steal over 31 minutes for Wisconsin in a loss to Grand Rapids on Tuesday.
Mason was traded from South Bay to Wisconsin on Feb. 24, and he made his debut with the Herd on Tuesday. The 27-year-old tied for the team lead in assists and put up a decent shooting line. Mason played less than 20 minutes in four of his final five games with South Bay, so the trade may represent an opportunity for more substantial playing time.

Frank Mason: Decent output off bench
Rotowire
Mason logged 11 points (3-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five assists, one rebound and one block across 19 minutes during Thursday's 117-111 loss to the Santa Cruz Warriors.
Mason is one of multiple backups to backcourt starters Mac McClung and Chaundee Brown. But like he did Thursday, the backup occasionally logs good stat lines when given opportunities. Mason will try to continue creating some value from his limited playing time.

Rotowire
Mason finished with 20 points (6-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight assists and five rebounds across 41 minutes of action during Sunday's 119-112 win over the Herd.
The Kansas product continued his impressive start to the G League season, as he's now averaging 14.8 points, 4.8 assists and 3.8 rebounds per game. With all the COVID call-ups happening right now, it would not be surprising to see the well-traveled point guard back in the NBA at some point this year.

Rotowire
Mason finished with 21 points (8-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 31 minutes of play during Thursday's 123-106 loss to Agua Caliente.
The Kansas product's 21 points tied a team-high as he shot 75 percent from the field during the team's defeat. Mason is averaging 14.8 points, 3.8 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game over his first six appearances with the team. The sharpshooting guard does have more than 100 career NBA games played under his belt, so it would not be surprising to see him get called up by the end of the season by a COVID-depleted roster.

Lakers' Frank Mason: Joins Lakers for camp
Rotowire
Mason agreed Wednesday with the Lakers on a training camp deal, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Mason played for the 76ers in the Las Vegas Summer League but will ultimately get a tryout for the Lakers as he looks to find his way on an NBA roster before the 2021-22 campaign. That said, it seems unlikely he makes the team, given the wealth of point guards Los Angeles has on hand.

Frank Mason: Waived by Orlando
Rotowire
Mason was officially waived by the Magic on Monday.
The Magic are desperate for guard depth, and Mason's recent groin injury meant that he was unable to contribute.

Mason appeared in three full games for Orlando, averaging 8.3 points, 4.0 rebounds and 4.0 assists in 25.0 minutes.

Rotowire
Mason won't return to Thursday's game against the Warriors due to a strained right groin, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Mason had 10 points (4-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and four assists during Saturday's 118-92 loss to the Bulls.

Rotowire
Mason was waived by the 76ers on Saturday, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
Mason signed an Exhibit 10 deal with the Sixers on Friday, but he was waived just one day later. The team likely wanted to acquire his G League rights, and it wouldn't be surprising to see the 2019-20 G League MVP have significant production at the developmental level once again this year.

Bucks' Frank Mason: Active for Game 1
Rotowire
Mason will be active for Monday's Game 1 against the Heat, Bucks radio voice Ted Davis reports.
With Eric Bledsoe (hamstring) set to sit out, Mason will move up to active duty and could serve as the third point guard behind starter George Hill and Donte DiVincenzo. Mason has been among the best players in the G League this season, but he's played sparingly at the NBA level, appearing in just nine games for Milwaukee during the regular season. His last action came back on Aug. 13 during a seeding-game matchup against the Grizzlies.

Bucks' Frank Mason: Productive again in loss
Rotowire
Mason finished with 18 points (7-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight assists, four rebounds, a steal and a block in 26 minutes during Thursday's 119-106 loss to the Grizzlies.
Mason just recorded a career-high 19 points against the Wizards on Tuesday, so he's closed out the regular season with a bang. The Bucks were once again without a number of their regulars, affording Mason additional playing time. He has the ability to put up numbers when given the opportunity, but Mason is typically restricted to a very minor role.
