Israeli guard Noam Yaacov has signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers, aiming to make his way into the NBA. The contract allows him to compete for a spot on the Cavaliers' roster during the preseason, with the potential to earn a two-way contract. Yaacov is expected to play for the Cavaliers' G League affiliate, the Cleveland Charge, managed by Liron Pe'nan, who was named the G League's top GM last season.
Yaacov will participate in the Cavaliers' remaining preseason games. Cleveland is scheduled to play the Orlando Magic twice, on Sunday night and again between Tuesday and Wednesday. The team recently played Boston, with all 17 players seeing action, suggesting Yaacov might get playing time in the upcoming games.
An Exhibit 10 contract primarily guarantees a player a spot in the G League but offers a path to the NBA based on performance. Should Yaacov impress, he could be offered a two-way contract, allowing him to play for both the Cavaliers and the Charge. Furthermore, starting January 5, 2027, NBA teams can sign players to 10-day contracts, presenting another potential upgrade opportunity for Yaacov.
