Former LSU guard Antoino Blakeney played last season with the Chicago Bulls on a two-way contract.
He could only spend 45 days on the main roster but had to spend the rest of his time with the Windy City Bulls, Chicago's G-League team.
Blakeney shined during his time in the G-League last season and earned the league's Rookie of the Year award. After a strong performance at the Las Vegas Summer League, he's been rewarded again.
The Chicago Tribune's K.J. Johnson reported on Wednesday afternoon that the Bulls were planning to sign Blakeney to a full NBA contract, albeit for the minimum.
