re: Quarterman gets a partially guaranteed two-year deal with the Trail Blazers

It means if he doesnt make the team he doesnt get paid (outside of the time hes on the team).

Something like that. Hes really just a preseason body

Yeah that is pretty much it. He is guaranteed a place in training camp which theoretically gives him a chance to make the team although the odds are long. He is signed for the NBA minimum but if he doesn't make the team then that amount is prorated for the amount of time he spent with them. So it doesn't amount to much money at all. And no the Trail Blazers don't have a D league team.
