The Hawks have signed forward Keyshawn Bryant and waived guard Devon Higgs, according to a team press release.
Bryant has three seasons of NBA G League experience, suiting up for the Ontario Clippers, San Diego Clippers and Windy City Bulls. In 40 career games, he has averages of 9.4 points and 3.6 rebounds in 18.9 minutes per contest. Bryant was also a member of the Bulls’ Summer League team in July and saw action in two games.
As a member of the Windy City Bulls, the 6’6” forward averaged 12.0 points and 4.1 rebounds in 21.8 minutes per game, including a 41-point outburst against the Westchester Knicks. Bryant has also played for the Niagara River Lions in the Canadian Elite Basketball League and the Sudbury Five in the Basketball Super League. He went undrafted in 2023 after four seasons at South Carolina and one at South Florida.
The Hawks didn’t reveal the details of Bryant’s agreement, but in all likelihood, it’s a non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 contract, designed to get him a bonus worth up to $91K if he joins the College Park Skyhawks — the Hawks’ G League affiliate — and spends at least 60 days with the team this season.
The same goes for Higgs, who was signed on Tuesday. Higgs has primarily competed in the G League since going undrafted out of Georgia Southwestern State in 2023, suiting up for the Motor City Cruise, Greensboro Swarm, and the Skyhawks.
The Hawks once again have a full 21-man camp roster.
