The Knicks have added free agent guard Charlie Brown Jr. to their offseason roster, signing him to an Exhibit 10 contract, the team announced today in a press release (Twitter link).
The move gives New York a full 21-man squad. The team waived Obadiah Noel earlier this week in order to open up a spot.
Brown, 26, has appeared in a total of 41 NBA regular season games for the Hawks, Thunder, Mavericks, and Sixers since 2019, but wasn’t in the league last year, having spent the season with Philadelphia’s G League affiliate. He averaged 13.2 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game for a Delaware Blue Coats team that won the 2022/23 G League championship.
Following his stint in Delaware, Brown caught on with the Knicks for Summer League play in July. He was a standout in four games in Las Vegas, averaging 19.8 PPG and 6.3 RPG with a shooting line of .547/.375/.800.
Brown’s Exhibit 10 contract will entitle him to a bonus worth up to $75K if he’s waived before the season begins and then spends at least 60 days with the Westchester Knicks. However, New York’s affiliate would need to acquire his returning rights from Delaware for that to happen.
Just be careful they don’t pull the ball away from you when you go to shoot it!
I got a rock
Good grief.
Sixers trash.
If Lucy Van Pelt controls the ball, Chuck will never get a shot.
Another guy that should have been kept by Philly last year when they desperately needed wing help, but they got rid of all 3 of those young options instead, never replaced them, and now finally at least added Danny Green back, though they still need another option there, in addition
This is a guy that could fit on several teams looking for help in that area. The Knicks were probably one of those teams, but they’ve added a couple of guys there, and they still have Fournier, otherwise, I could have seen him having a shot to make the roster
Uh oh Charlie fell asleep in the bleach bucket again…
why is everybody always picking on him?
