Josh Oduro Signs Exhibit 10 Contract with New Orleans Pelicans
The New Orleans Pelicans have added Josh Oduro to their roster by signing him to an Exhibit 10 contract. This specific type of contract, which is a one-year, non-guaranteed deal, provides Oduro with the opportunity to prove his worth during training camp. Should he perform well, the Pelicans have the option to convert this contract into a two-way deal before the regular season begins.
Oduro, a standout player from Providence College, brings a strong skill set and impressive college career to the Pelicans. During his time at Providence, he was known for his scoring ability, defensive prowess, and leadership on the court. His addition to the Pelicans’ training camp roster offers him a chance to showcase these talents at the professional level.
After the training camp, Oduro is expected to spend the season with the Birmingham Squadron, the Pelicans’ G-League affiliate. The Exhibit 10 contract also includes a financial incentive for Oduro. If he is waived by the Pelicans but agrees to stay with the Birmingham Squadron for at least 60 days, he will receive a $75,000 bonus. This provision is designed to encourage players to develop within the team’s system and provides additional financial stability.
The Pelicans see potential in Oduro’s abilities and believe that he could be a valuable asset to their organization. His journey with the team will be closely watched by fans and analysts, as he has the opportunity to make a significant impact both in the G-League and potentially with the Pelicans in the future.
