Two members of the 2025-26 Louisville men’s basketball team have inked NBA contracts after going undrafted.

J’Vonne Hadley has signed an Exhibit-10 contract with the Miami Heat, which selected Hadley’s former teammate Ryan Conwell 37th overall Wednesday night. Exhibit-10 contracts are one-year, non-guaranteed deals typically given to undrafted free agents who will compete for roster spots at the NBA’s Summer League.

Isaac McKneely, another starter from the 2025-26 squad, has signed the same type of deal with the Atlanta Hawks.

Louisville fans are going to have more reasons to tune into Summer League play next month than they have in several years.

Best of luck to both Isaac and J’Vonne on the next steps in their basketball journeys.
