The San Antonio Spurs are reportedly adding two new undrafted prospects to their comprehensive haul this week.
Former Alabama center Charles Bediako will sign a one-year deal with the franchise, agent Daniel Green informed Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report (Twitter link). Terms of the agreement aren’t known, but it will likely be non-guaranteed, perhaps with Exhibit 10 language.
In addition, former Toledo senior small forward Setric Millner Jr. is inking an Exhibit 10 training camp deal, sources tell Jon Chepkevich of DraftExpress (via Twitter).
Exhibit 10 contracts can be converted to two-way deals or can put a player on track to receive a bonus worth up to $75K if he’s waived before the regular season and subsequently spends at least 60 days with his team’s G League affiliate.
During a two-year college career, the seven-foot Bediako was named to the 2023 All-SEC Tourney and SEC All-Defense teams. Across his two college seasons with the Crimson Tide, he averaged 6.6 PPG, 5.2 RPG, 1.7 BPG, 0.7 APG and 0.6 SPG across 19.3 MPG.
Millner averaged 15.9 PPG, 5.9 RPG, 1.7 APG and 1.1 SPG during 2022/23. He was a two-time All-MAC and a 2023 All-MAC Tourney honoree. Chepkevich notes that the 6-foot-6 wing number among 64 seniors brought to the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament this spring.
San Antonio was of course the headliner in this week’s draft, as the Spurs had the opportunity to select a potentially generational talent, French big man Victor Wembanyama, with the top pick. The Spurs also selected G League Ignite guard Sidy Cissoko in the second round.
