COLUMBIA, Mo. — Sean East II will get his shot.
The former Missouri point guard has signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, presenting him with a pathway to land in the NBA.
East went unselected during this week's NBA Draft but quickly signed with the Lakers afterward. The Exhibit 10 contract means East's deal can easily be converted into a two-way agreement that would place East with the Lakers' G-League affiliate.
Appearing in that developmental league seems like the likely step for East, who would seemingly be a strong candidate for the Lakers' Summer League roster as well.
