RJ Davis, a five-year player and four-year starter for North Carolina, has agreed to a contract with the Lakers, Billy Reinhardt tweets. It’s an Exhibit 10 contract, according to Adam Zagoria (Twitter link).
The 6-foot guard appeared in 175 NCAA games, including 155 starts. In his final year with the Tar Heels, he averaged 17.2 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists. He averaged 21.2 points in 2023/24.
For his college career, Davis made 41.8 percent of his field goal attempts, including 36.7 percent of his 3-point tries.
Exhibit 10 contracts are non-guaranteed but include bonuses of up to $85K if the player is waived and then spends at least 60 days with his team’s G League affiliate. In Davis’ case, that G League team would be the South Bay Lakers. Exhibit 10 can be converted into two-way deals and Davis will try to earn that during Summer League and training camp.
