    The 2024 NBA fraft is over and now free agency is starting to dry up. A number of undrafted players signed deals ranging from Exhibit 10 to Summer League invites.

    One popular college basketball player has now signed an Exhibit 10 deal with the Indiana Pacers: Keisei Tominaga (h/t Jonathan Givony of ESPN).

    "Japanese guard Keisei Tominaga has agreed to an Exhibit 10 deal with the Indiana Pacers, a source told ESPN. The Nebraska product was one of the best shooters in the Big Ten, averaging 15 points in 26 minutes."

    Tominaga was a fan favorite with the Nebraska Cornhuskers and went viral for a number of videos that circulated around social media.

    Tominaga averaged 14.6 points per game with a 46% field goal percentage and a 37% mark from three-point land.

    Tominaga scored 21 points in the NCAA Tournament loss to Texas A&M and was a huge part of the Cornhuskers' success the last couple of seasons.

    Now, he gets a chance to earn a spot on an NBA roster with this Exhibit 10 deal. Tominaga also signed with Stephen Curry's Under Armour brand and is set to play for Team Japan in the Olympics in Paris.
