Lands with Utah The Jazz signed Lewis to an Exhibit 10 contract Sunday, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Impact Lewis will join the club on a non-guaranteed pact, though he is expected to land with the club's G League affiliate -- the Salt Lake City Stars -- for the 2024-25 campaign. The 22-year-old made 29 regular-season appearances for the Stars last year, during which he averaged 5.2 points and 3.2 rebounds across 14.4 minutes per game.

Officially back on two-way deal Lewis (ankle) will be on a two-way contract with the Bulls in 2023-24, Will Gottlieb of AllCHGO.com reports.
Impact Lewis missed all of last season while recovering from a torn ACL and was shut down for Summer League due to an ankle injury. However, despite the injuries, the Bulls still have confidence the undrafted wing out of Marquette can develop into an NBA contributor. Lewis joins Adama Sanogo and Terry Taylor as Chicago's two-way players, but all three will presumably spend most of 2023-24 in the G League.

Impact After going undrafted out of Marquette this past summer, Lewis inked a two-way deal with Chicago, but he then torn the ACL in his right knee in August and underwent surgery, prompting Chicago to cut him loose before the start of the regular season. The 6-foot-7 forward has spent the entire campaign rehabbing and doesn't appear on the cusp of playing at any point in 2022-23, but the Bulls will at least be able to oversee his recovery from the knee injury now that he's under contract.
