Timberwolves Signing Jaedon LeDee To Exhibit 10 Contract

Former San Diego State forward Jaedon LeDee has agreed to an Exhibit 10 deal with the Timberwolves, sources tell Michael Scotto of HoopsHype (Twitter link).

LeDee, 25, joined Minnesota’s Summer League team after going unselected in this year’s draft. He appeared in five games in Las Vegas, averaging 2.6 points and 2.0 rebounds in 9.8 minutes per night.

In his senior season with the Aztecs, LeDee received the Karl Malone Award as the best power forward in college basketball. He was also selected as a second-team All-American by NABC and the Sporting News and was a third-team choice by the Associated Press after posting 21.4 points, 8.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 36 games.

LeDee began his collegiate career at Ohio State, but transferred to TCU after his freshman season. He moved on to San Diego State two years later and was part of the 2023 Final Four team. He originally declared for the draft in 2023, but withdrew his name to spend one more season in college.

The Wolves currently have 14 players on standard contracts and all three of their two-way slots filled, so LeDee faces long odds to earn a roster spot. He’ll likely end up with the team’s G League affiliate in Iowa, where he’ll be eligible to earn a bonus of up to $77.5K by remaining with the team for 60 days.

LeDee’s signing will bring Minnesota to the offseason roster limit of 21 players.
