An Exhibit 10 bonus can pay the player from $5,000 to $50,000 if the player is waived by his NBA team, signs with the G-League, is assigned to the NBA team's G-League affiliate, and stays there at least 60 days.

These are common for the last few slots of the 20-man summer roster.

(07-14-2022, 03:06 PM)KillerLeft Wrote: I get that, and I don't love being locked into him for two years at big money, but as the 3rd guard, coming off the bench I'd like it. His name and rep still ring out (with the players, I don't care what fans think about him), and I actually think he could bring a lot of battle tested experience to the table that might help the team a lot. 

It's similar to how I felt about Lowry a year ago. Not all of the benefit comes from what happens on the court. Just my opinion.

If the Mavs sign hm I'll be pretty disappointed.

(07-14-2022, 03:24 PM)KillerLeft Wrote: No, not like Boban. Conley would play over 20 minutes per here in Dallas. Most of the time, he'd play pretty damn well. Not as well as he would've 5 years ago, but he'd contribute more on-court than Boban ever has.
