The Cleveland Cavaliers signed guard Darius Brown II to an Exhibit 10 contract. Cleveland waived guard Jacob Gilyard to create the roster spot to sign Brown.
Brown went undrafted out of Utah State at the 2024 NBA Draft. As a senior with the Aggies, the 6-foot-2 guard averaged 12.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 1.5 steals per game.
Gilyard was signed to a non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 contract earlier this offseason. Both Gilyard and Brown are expected to join the Cleveland Charge for the upcoming G League season.
