The Timberwolves signed a former Jazz backcourt star, and the probability that he got is a non-guaranteed contract?

According to sources, Johnny Juzang, a former free agent backcourt player, reached an agreement with the Minnesota Timberwolves, who received a one-year contract from the Timberwolves, according to sources.
In the NBA regular season last season, Zhu Zan played 64 games in 82 games, averaging 19.8 minutes per game, averaging 8.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.1 blocks, and 0.6 turnovers and 2 fouls. His shooting percentage was 42.9%, three-point shooting percentage was 37.6%, and free throw shooting percentage was 84.9%. In the NBA Development League regular season this season, Zhu Zan played 33 times for the Jazz's subordinate team Salt Lake City Star, with averaging 31.7 minutes per game, with averaging 20.6 points, 4 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.5 blocks, and 1.8 turnovers and 2.4 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 46.5%, a three-point shooting percentage of 36.9%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 90.4%.
Zhu Zan's performance in last season was obviously average. Zhu Zan actually got a lot of playing time and performance opportunities during the regular season, but his performance was not satisfactory, or he did not show enough progress and improvement. Zhu Zan's scoring ability during the regular season was not fully demonstrated. Not only that, his performance in other aspects is also quite average, his defensive ability is not ideal, and he has not shown enough passing ability and organizational ability. Zhu Zan is a reliable scorer in the NBA Development League field, and he is indeed capable of exerting his scoring ability and his offensive value in low-level games. However, in higher-level competitions, he still seems unable to show a convincing performance.
Zhu Zan was just cut by his old club Utah Jazz on June 30, US time. He has not received a contract since the free market opened last month, which also shows that his market in the free market is not ideal, and he cannot get the attention and signing from more NBA teams. In this case, although the details of Zhu Zan's contract have not been disclosed, we also have reason to believe that what he got from the Timberwolves should be a training camp contract containing Exhibit 10 clauses or a non-guarantee contract, and he also needs to seize the opportunity to prove his value in front of the Timberwolves uniform team. If he can't show enough competitiveness in training camp and preseason, whether he can win a two-way contract or a standard opportunity, or even whether he can continue to stay in the NBA are a huge question mark.
