All Exhibit 10 deals after NBA Draft 2023 so far

Not all draft prospects were lucky enough to hear their names called on draft night. Only 58 players were drafted on Thursday night.

So, what happens with the other prospects outside of the 58? They can sign with teams as free agents.

These players sign either two-way contracts or Exhibit 10 deals. Two-way deals allow the players a spot on a G League roster with the ability to be called up to the NBA level when their team needs them.

An Exhibit 10 is a one-year deal worth the NBA minimum salary. teams can convert an Exhibit 10 to a two-way deal before the season begins, but only before the season. Exhibit 10 contracts also have a $50,000 bonus if the player is waived and not kept on the roster.

Many undrafted free agents have already signed these deals.

Let’s take a look at some of the Exhibit 10 deals so far.
