Hawks add Keon Johnson on likely Exhibit 10 deal

Atlanta announced it has signed guard Keon Johnson, though no contract terms were released. It is expected to be an Exhibit 10 with a training camp invite, which could pay him a bonus up to $91K if he's waived and spends 60 days with the College Park Skyhawks.

Johnson, the 21st pick in 2021, has already bounced through New York, the Clippers, Portland, Phoenix and Brooklyn, and spent last season in the G League after Brooklyn waived him. Atlanta still has one open roster spot after the move.
