Free agent forward Igor Milicic Jr. has agreed to an Exhibit 10 contract with the Knicks, according to Karol Wasiek of the Polish outlet Inertia Sport (hat tip to Sportando).
A member of the Polish national team, Milicic went undrafted in 2025 after a well-traveled college career, having spent one year with Virginia, two at Charlotte, and one with Tennessee. The 6’10” forward signed an Exhibit 10 deal with Philadelphia last year and was waived ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
Milicic averaged 9.4 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 25.4 minutes per game across 37 starts for Tennessee as a senior in 2024/25. In 45 games with the Delaware Blue Coats — the Sixers’ affiliate club — last season, he averaged 6.9 PPG, 5.0 RPG and 0.9 APG in 18.8 MPG, with a shooting line of .401/.289/.769.
If Milicic is waived by New York before the season begins and spends at least 60 days with the NBAGL’s Westchester Knicks, he could earn a bonus worth up to $91K on top of his typical G League salary. Exhibit 10 contracts can also be converted into two-way deals, and the Knicks currently have all three of their two-way slots open.
According to Wasiek, part of the reason Milicic agreed to join the Knicks is because they had so many two-way openings. He also thinks it’s a good developmental opportunity for his professional career.
