An Exhibit 10 contract is a one-year, minimum-salary NBA deal that allows the franchise to convert the contract to a two-way contract, as long as that change is made before the start of the regular season.
Reeves, a 6-foot-6 shooting guard, went undrafted in 2022. The Roxbury, Mass., native averaged 9.9 points and 2.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game last season with the Friars while shooting 36.9 percent from the floor.
