Believe it or not, Gonzaga star Drew Timme's time in college has finally come to a close.
The All-American forward went undrafted in the 2023 NBA Draft, but the Bucks have picked him up on an Exhibit 10 contract to join their Summer League team.
Timme will be fighting for a real roster spot in Las Vegas, where he will look to showcase the same level of dominance he displayed over four years with the Bulldogs. Timme averaged 21.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.0 blocks per game as a senior this past season.
Will he be able to maintain the same level of success against other NBA hopefuls? You can find Milwaukee's full Summer League schedule below, along with an explanation of Exhibit 10 contracts.

What is an Exhibit 10 contract?
An Exhibit 10 contract is a one-year, minimum salary contract with no other bonuses. The Exhibit 10 attachment gives NBA teams the ability to convert the contract into a Two-Way deal, but only if they do it before the start of the regular season.
They are usually non-guaranteed, allowing teams to waive the player without taking a cap hit. As of the newly established collective bargaining agreement released on Wednesday, June 28, the maximum value of Exhibit 10 contracts has increased from $50,000 to $75,000.
The player must remain with the team's G League affiliate for 60 days to receive their full pay.
When does Drew Timme play in NBA Summer League?
Timme will begin his path to the NBA against the defending champion Nuggets' Summer League team on Friday, July 7.
Milwaukee is also scheduled to face the Suns, Nets and Heat in Las Vegas. Brooklyn and Miami present intriguing matchups for Timme. He'll go up against a young, athletic floor-stretching forward in the Nets' No. 21 overall pick Noah Clowney, and another upperclassman college star in the Heat's No. 18 overall pick Jaime Jaquez Jr.
