Suns Sign, Then Waive Alex Schumacher in Procedural Exhibit 10 Move

The paperwork steers the undrafted guard back to the Valley Suns with a chance to earn an Exhibit 10 bonus.

Overview

  • Phoenix signed Alex Schumacher to an Exhibit 10 deal and waived him less than 24 hours later, per Bright Side Of The Sun.
  • The team already held his G League rights, so the sequence functions as a mechanism to route him to the Valley Suns with bonus eligibility.
  • Exhibit 10 contracts count toward the offseason roster and can pay up to $85,300 if the player spends at least 60 days with the affiliate.
  • Schumacher joined the Valley Suns last season after a trade from the Windy City Bulls and averaged 12.5 points, 5.3 assists, and 3.8 rebounds in eight games.
  • With TyTy Washington on a non-guaranteed deal with the Clippers, available backcourt minutes in the Valley could create an opportunity for Schumacher.
