Basketball: Damion Baugh Signs with the Los Angeles Lakers
USA TODAY Sports

After going undrafted in Thursday's NBA Draft, Damion Baugh reportedly signed an Exhibit 10-Day Deal with the Los Angeles Lakers. Baugh began his career at Memphis, where he played for two seasons before transferring to TCU for the final two years of his college career. 

Baugh will go down as a TCU basketball great thanks to his role in helping the Horned Frogs appear in back-to-back NCAA tournaments, something the program hasn't done since 1952 and 1953. Baugh earned All-Big 12 Honors twice and averaged 11.6 points per game in his two seasons with the Frogs. 

Baugh's Exhibit 10-Day deal is a non-guaranteed, one-year deal that will be an opportunity to earn a more permanent role within the Lakers franchise. He will play in the Summer League in July and can earn a spot with the team's G-League roster with a strong showing. 

Baugh joins Mike Miles as the two Horned Frogs who landed on an NBA roster in some capacity after the NBA Draft; Miles signed a two-way deal with the Dallas Mavericks.
