Former University of Kansas shooting guard Svi Mykhailiuk signed his first NBA contract — with the Los Angeles Lakers — on Tuesday, Lakers’ general manager Rob Pelinka announced in a release on the team’s website.
Terms were not disclosed.
Shams Charania of Yahoo Sports indicated the 6-foot-8, 21-year-old Mykhailiuk will receive $4.6 million over three years. The deal, Charania reported, includes a team option, reportedly after the second year.
The Lakers chose Mykhailiuk 47th overall in the 2018 NBA Draft. He has averaged 13.2 points on 37.5 percent three-point shooting through his first five summer league games for the Lakers in Las Vegas and Sacramento, Calif.
