The Hornets have agreed to an Exhibit 10 contract with swingman Kahlil Whitney, according to Adam Zagoria of NJ Advance Media.
He joins three other former Kentucky players on Charlotte’s roster — Malik Monk, P.J. Washington and second-round pick Nick Richards — Zagoria notes. Whitney had a disappointing one-and-done season with the Wildcats, averaging just 3.3 PPG and 1.7 RPG in 12.8 MPG during an 18-game stint. He withdrew from the school due to his lack of playing time.
An Exhibit 10 contract provides players with an invitation to training camp and a guarantee of up to $50K if they are waived and later assigned to the team’s affiliate in the G League.
