Ibrahima Diallo signs Exhibit 10 with the Jazz
The Utah Jazz signed Exhibit 10 forward Ibrahima Diallo, a format that allows for pre-season evaluation without guaranteeing roster spots.[1] He is currently playing for the Salt Lake City Stars of the G League.[2] Last season with the Westchester Knicks he averaged 4.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.0 blocked shots as an outstanding guard.[3] A good performance could pave the way to a two-way contract or future chance in the NBA.[4]

Recruitment
The Utah Jazz agreed with Ibrahim Diallo, who signed an Exhibit 10 contract. This format of agreement is common in the NBA pre-season: it does not guarantee a spot on the final roster but allows the club to evaluate the player during training and preseason games before deciding his future.
Road to the G League
After the preseason, Diallo is expected to join the Salt Lake City Stars, the Jazz' G League affiliate for the remainder of the season.
What he showed last season
Diallo arrives with G League baggage of his own. Last season, the 7-foot (2.13 m) center played 33 games for the New York Knicks' affiliate Westchester Knicks.
Where does it stop
At this point, the deal is an invitation to prove value. The Jazz coach will have preseason to evaluate Diallo, but the most likely scenario is to see him defending the Salt Lake City Stars in the G League. For the center, a good performance there paves the way for a two-way contract or future chance at the NBA.
