  • J.P. Macura: Heads to Turkey

    Turkish club Afyon Belediye announced Tuesday that it signed Macura to a contract.

    Macura made one appearance at the NBA level in 2019-20, making a one-minute cameo for the Cavaliers back in February when he was playing under a 10-day contract. The 25-year-old shooting guard otherwise spent the season in the G League, averaging 14.2 points, 4.3 boards, 2.4 steals, 2.2 assists and 2.0 treys in 29.0 minutes per game.

  • J.P. Macura: Reports back to G League

    Macura rejoined the G League's Canton Charge this week after his 10-day contract with the Cavaliers expired. He played 27 minutes Tuesday in the Charge's 121-116 win over the College Park Skyhawks, finishing with nine points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and three assists.

    Macura logged one one-minute appearance during his week-and-a-half-long stint with the Cavaliers before the NBA team opted not to extend him to another 10-day deal. The second-year pro should receive steady playing time with Canton for the rest of the season unless another NBA team chooses to sign him to its 15-man roster.

  • Cavaliers' J.P. Macura: Signs with Cavaliers

    Macura signed a 10-day contract with the Cavaliers on Sunday.

    Macura, a sharpshooting guard, will get his second shot at NBA action. Averaging 14.8 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.6 steals and 2.2 assists in 30.1 minutes per game so far this season for Canton, Cleveland's G League affiliate, Macura pairs a solid defense with a knockdown shot from deep. He should see some action behind Dante Exum as a reserve shooting guard for the duration of his contract.

  • J.P. Macura: Chips in 15 in G League win

    Macura scored 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 0-0 FT) and added six rebounds, two assists and four steals in Saturday's G League win over Westchester.

    It was Macura's best outing since dropping 26 eight games ago. He had been pretty consistent recently, however, scoring between eight and 14 points in each appearance during that span.

  • J.P. Macura: Posts double-double for Canton

    Macura put up 26 points (11-15 FG, 4-7 3Pt) to go with 10 rebounds, two assists and one steal in 36 minutes Saturday in Canton's 106-103 win over Raptors 905.

    The double-double was the second one of the season for Macura, who has proven to be more than just a perimeter sniper during his time with the Charge. Through 25 outings with Canton, Macura has supplemented his 15.8 points and 2.3 three-pointers per game with averages of 4.5 rebounds, 2.7 steals and 2.0 assists in 30.4 minutes.

  • J.P. Macura: Subpar in loss

    Macura scored 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 0-0 FT) and totaled two rebounds, one assist, and two steals during Friday's G League loss to College Park.

    Macura got the start and played 26 minutes. His numbers were down slightly across the board in this compared to his per-game stats so far this season.

  • J.P. Macura: Let go by Cleveland

    Macura was waived by the Cavaliers on Tuesday, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Macura was fighting for a final roster spot, but couldn't do enough to impress the coaching staff. Still, he might be able to land a spot in the G League.

  • Cavaliers' J.P. Macura: Signs deal with Cavs

    Macura has agreed to a partially-guaranteed contract with the Cavaliers, Emiliano Carchia of Sportnado reports.

    Macura played 17 total minutes for the Hornets last season, totaling six points, three rebounds and two assists. He spent most of his time in the G League, where he averaged 16.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.4 steals. While the Hornets were willing to let him go, the Cavaliers will take a chance on the 24-year-old shooting guard.

  • Hornets' J.P. Macura: Returns from extended absence

    Macura (ankle) came off the bench for the G League's Greensboro Swarm in their 139-125 win over the Capital City Go-Go on Tuesday, producing 12 points (3-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 14 minutes.

    Macura played a more limited role than usual for the affiliate in what marked his first appearance since Jan. 26 while he worked back from an ankle injury. He should see his minutes expand in the Swarm's games to come but is unlikely to earn a rotation role at the NBA level at any point in 2018-19.

  • J.P. Macura: Still missing time

    Macura (ankle) did not play in Tuesday's game against the Drive.

    The two-way player has missed the last three games with an ankle injury, but the severity remains unknown. Joe Chealey has thrived in his absence, posting consecutive 20-plus point outings.

  • J.P. Macura: Out with ankle injury

    Macura (ankle) did not play in Tuesday's contest against the BayHawks.

    It's unclear how severe the ankle injury might be, but given the Hornets have yet to issue a statement regarding the status of their two-way player, it's fair to speculate it's not overtly serious.

  • Hornets' J.P. Macura: Drops game-high 30 points

    Macura totaled 30 points (13-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and six steals in 41 minutes Saturday against Delaware.

    Macura shot an impressive 61.9 percent from the field and contributed across the board in a 111-105 comeback victory. The former Musketeer continues to impress in the G League this season, as he's averaging 15.1 points along with 3.7 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.6 steals through 22 contests (21 starts).

  • Hornets' J.P. Macura: Dispatched to G League

    Macura was assigned to the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Monday.

    Macura, one of the Hornets' two two-way players, received his first taste of NBA action over the past week and a half while Jeremy Lamb tended to a hamstring injury. The rookie out of Xavier made only one appearance during his stint with the parent club, producing four points, two rebounds and two assists in a 14-minute outing Jan. 2 against Dallas. With Lamb now healthy, Macura wasn't needed for further insurance on the wing.

  • Hornets' J.P. Macura: Makes NBA debut

    Macura tallied four points (2-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists across 14 minutes off the bench Wednesday in the Hornets' 122-84 loss to the Mavericks.

    Called up from the G League's Greensboro Swarm earlier in the day, Macura saw his first NBA action with the Mavericks turning the contest into a runaway victory right from the opening tip. Macura didn't shoot particularly well in garbage time and should be excluded from the rotation in more competitive contests.

  • Hornets' J.P. Macura: Called up, available Wednesday

    Macura has been recalled from the G League and will be in uniform for Wednesday's matchup against the Mavericks.

    Macura went unselected out of Xavier during the 2018 Draft, and he's spent the whole season in the G League thus far. However, with the Hornets dealing with some injuries, he'll be in uniform if needed for the Hornets' contest.

  • J.P. Macura: Scores 31 despite loss

    Macura (lower leg) scored 31 points to go along with four rebounds, one assist and one steal in Tuesday's 129-118 loss to Long Island.

    Macura finally saw a full complement of minutes after working through a lower leg injury the previous three contests. When healthy, the forward is one of the most explosive scorers in the league, with Tuesday's showing an obvious example of his talents. The two-way player hasn't seen much time with the Hornets this season, but that could change if the team loses any of its depth at the wing.

  • J.P. Macura: Does not play Wednesday

    Macura did not play in Wednesday's game due to a lower leg injury.

    The Swarm will have games both Friday and Saturday, so there's a possibility the guard will see the court before the end of the weekend.
