The Houston Rockets today announced they have signed guard Sean Pedulla to a two-way contract.

In the NBA, a Two-Way contract is a contract that allows players to suit up for both an NBA team and that team's NBA G League affiliate. Each team is allowed to have a maximum of three players on Two-Way deals at the same time. Two-way contracts allow NBA teams to carry three extra players in addition to the 15 on their regular season roster.

Two-Way contracts are available to players with up to three years of NBA experience. Players on Two-Way contracts are also limited to a maximum of 50 games with their NBA team. Players on two-way contracts will earn $678,882 in 2026-27, half of the rookie minimum. Two-way contracts can't be signed after March 4. Two-way players are ineligible to play in the postseason (including play-in games) unless they're promoted to the standard 15-man roster, which can happen at any time up until the last day of the regular season.

Pedulla (6'1", 195) was eligible for the 2025 NBA Draft following his senior season at the University of Mississippi. He began last season in the G League before signing a two-way deal with the Los Angeles Clippers on Feb. 19, 2026. Pedulla appeared in seven games for the Clippers over the remainder of the season.

During the G League regular season, Pedulla was the only player to have averaged at least 20.0 points, 6.0 assists, 5.0 rebounds, 1.50 steals and 2.5 3-pointers made. He was named the 2025-26 NBA G League Rookie of the Year.

Pedulla spent his first three collegiate seasons at Virginia Tech before transferring to Ole Miss. He started every game for the Rebels during their run to the Sweet 16 in 2024-25 and was named All-SEC Third Team.
