Clippers Part Ways with NBA Legend Chris Paul Amid Season Struggles
The Los Angeles Clippers have released 12-time All-Star Chris Paul following a dismal start to the NBA season, marking the end of his second stint with the franchise.
Ugandan college basketball star Arthur Kaluma is set to compete for a roster spot with the Los Angeles Lakers at the Summer League.
Texas forward Arthur Kaluma is reported to have inked an Exhibit 10 contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, according to sources at The Athletic. This agreement, a one-year, minimum salary deal, will allow Kaluma to vie for a spot on the Lakers' roster during the upcoming Summer League.
The four-year double-digit scorer in college basketball played his final year at the University of Texas last season. During his tenure with the Longhorns, he averaged 12.3 points and 7.5 rebounds. Prior to his stint at Texas, he played two seasons at Creighton, one at Kansas State, and one at Texas. In total, he played 134 games, starting in 131 during his college career.
An Exhibit 10 contract is a unique agreement that can be beneficial for both parties. The contract is not guaranteed but includes an optional bonus of up to $75,000, which will be awarded if a player, after he is waived, spends at least 60 days with a team's G League affiliate. This contract serves as a means for teams to bring in players to compete during the Summer League for a roster spot on an NBA team or its G League affiliate. If a player on an Exhibit 10 contract is kept on the 15-man roster past the start of the regular season, his contract becomes a standard minimum deal.
