Free agent Philip Alston will sign an Exhibit 10 contract with the Bucks, sources tell Jon Chepkevich of DraftExpress (Twitter link).
The 22-year-old forward went undrafted out of Loyola Chicago after averaging 12.2 points and 4.6 rebounds as a senior in 29 games with the Ramblers. He spent the last two seasons at Loyola after playing three years at California, Pa.
Alston was part of Milwaukee’s Summer League team, appearing in three games in Las Vegas and averaging 4.7 points and 2.3 rebounds in 12.3 minutes per contest. He was given a start in his final game and responded with 11 points, five rebounds, two assists and a steal.
The Bucks have a virtually full roster with 14 players holding guaranteed contracts, plus Andre Jackson on a partially guaranteed deal and no two-way spots available. There’s little chance that Alston will make the team in training camp, but the Exhibit 10 deal provides him with an opportunity to earn a bonus of up to $77.5K if he spends at least 60 days with the Bucks’ G League affiliate.
