NEW YORK (Kyodo) — The Indiana Pacers on Thursday signed Japan men’s national basketball team guard Keisei Tominaga to an Exhibit 10 contract ahead of their preseason training camp beginning next week.
The contract, agreed upon in July, allows Tominaga to take part in the Pacers’ camp and can be converted into a two-way deal, under which players can split time between the NBA and the developmental G League, before the regular season starts later in October.
Tominaga was a standout in his final season of U.S. college basketball for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, helping them to reach the National Collegiate Athletic Association tournament in March.
The 23-year-old Aichi Prefecture native played for Japan at the recent Paris Olympics and later made his professional debut as a member of the G League United select team.
