Bernard made his NBA debut in 2023-24 for the Wizards, where he averaged 3.9 points and shot 37.9% from three in 19 games. He has the dribble-pass-shoot skillset on the wing that teams covet and deserves another shot soon.
Not even three days after signing him, Minnesota has waived Jules Bernard from his two-way contract. The reasoning for the move has yet to be seen.
After waiving Johnny Juzang, Minnesota has filled their open two-way with Juzang's college teammate, Jules Bernard. Bernard, who made his NBA debut in 2023-24 for the Wizards, has been a stud for the Iowa Wolves in the G League this season. Congrats, Jules!
