Overview
- Hoiberg’s signing was reported Thursday and confirmed by NBA insider Jake Fischer, his agency Priority Sports, and Hoiberg’s own social posts.
- The contract is an Exhibit 10 deal, a one-year non-guaranteed offer that can include a bonus of roughly $91,000 if a player is waived and spends the required time with the team’s G League affiliate.
- Hoiberg arrives after a strong senior season at Nebraska where he averaged about 9.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game and earned Big Ten All-Defensive and honorable-mention All-Big Ten honors.
- Phoenix has used undrafted Exhibit 10 signings to add guard depth after re-signing Jordan Goodwin and Collin Gillespie and operating with limited second-round draft assets following a season marked by backcourt injuries.
- For Hoiberg the deal creates a pro debut: he will compete in Suns training camp with a likely assignment to the Valley Suns G League team if waived and a clear financial and development path to work back toward an NBA roster spot.
