The Indiana Pacers have signed former Purdue guard Dakota Mathias to an Exhibit 10 contract, placing him with their G-League affiliate, the Indiana Mad Ants. Mathias, who played for Purdue from 2014-18 and has NBA experience with the 76ers and Grizzlies, performed well during the 2024 NBA Summer League. The Pacers also signed forwards Kyle Mangas and Cameron McGriff to similar Exhibit 10 deals, with both players having spent the previous season with the Mad Ants. Mangas, a native of Indiana and former standout at Indiana Wesleyan University, expressed excitement about returning to the Pacers organization and highlighted his positive experiences with teammates Jarace Walker and Quenton Jackson. McGriff, who has NBA experience and was acquired from the Memphis Hustle, looks to secure a spot in training camp alongside Mangas. Exhibit 10 contracts allow players to participate in training camp and potentially earn a bonus if they remain with the G-League team for a specified time.
