📈 STOCK UP

🔼  Contract Signed. The men’s basketball team had two players sign undrafted NBA contracts. Jordan Riley signed with the New Orleans Pelicans. Giovanni Emejuru signed with the Denver Nuggets. The duo's signings with their respective teams marks the second straight year that the Pirates have had a player sign an undrafted contract. Riley will compete on Pelicans' summer league team while Emejuru has inked an Exhibit-10 contract with the Nuggets. An Exhibit 10 contract is a one-year, non-guaranteed NBA minimum salary contract that primarily serves to invite players to training camp and secure their G League rights.
