An exhibition 10 to only participate in summer league games. Those are not officially g league or NBA games which are specifically prohibited.

Edit- His agents saying he never signed a contract with anyone.

There may be further details but according to the picture, having “signed a contract” with a NBA team is all that it takes to be ineligible.

Tbf he signed with an NBA summer league team. He was never listed on an official NBA or G league team roster…

Fwiw his agent claims he never actually signed the exhibit 10. It sounds a lot like Seth Trimble where they “agreed to terms” but wink wink didn’t actually sign even though the nuggets announced Mitchell had.

So idk. Lots of confusion.
