Umude agreed to an Exhibit 10 contract with the Spurs on Tuesday, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Umude will compete for a spot on the Spurs' regular-season roster on a non-guaranteed deal. The 26-year-old swingman spent the 2024-25 campaign on a two-way deal with Milwaukee, averaging just 3.9 minutes per game in 22 regular-season appearances. Over 13 outings with the G League's Wisconsin Herd, he averaged 17.5 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 27.9 minutes per game.

Umude (ankle) and the Bucks agreed to a two-way contract Monday, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Pistons declined Umude's team option on June 29, so the Bucks acted quickly to scoop up the guard. Umude is unlikely to be in the Bucks' regular rotation, but he could be a long-term project for the franchise to develop. Umude missed the end of the 2023-24 campaign due to a hairline fracture in his right ankle, but he's presumably healthy after passing a physical to make his deal official.

The Pistons declined Umude's (ankle) team option for the 2024-25 season Saturday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Umude missed the end of the 2023-24 season with a hairline fracture in his ankle, and a timetable isn't currently known. Umude will now have to test the open market as a free agent after making 24 appearances with the Pistons last season with averages of 5.3 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.0 three-pointers.

The Pistons announced Friday that Umude will miss the remainder of the season due to a hairline fracture in his right ankle, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Umude sustained the injury in Wednesday's loss to the Pacers and had already been ruled out for Friday's game against Boston. Now that he's been officially diagnosed with a fractured ankle, Umude will end up missing the final few weeks of the regular season, but he won't require surgery and is expected to make a full recovery ahead of training camp in 2024-25. Over 24 appearances with the Pistons this season, the 24-year-old wing averaged 5.3 points and 2.1 rebounds in 12.8 minutes per game.

Umude has been ruled out for Friday's game against Boston due to a fractured right ankle.
EDGE Analysis
Umude exited Wednesday's game against the Pacers due to his ankle issue and will miss at least one matchup after being diagnosed with a fracture, although it wouldn't be surprising to see him miss multiple games. Troy Brown and Evan Fournier are candidates to see increased run in his absence.

Umude has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against the Pacers after twisting his right ankle, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports. He'll finish with eight points (3-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and one rebound during 22 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Umude has become a key rotation piece for the Pistons as they battle through a laundry list of an injury report and made his second straight start Wednesday. However, his outing was cut short after hurting his ankle in the third quarter. In his place, Troy Brown and Evan Fournier should see more action. Umude's next chance to play will come Friday.

Umude registered 10 points (3-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and one assist in 34 minutes during Monday's 119-94 loss to the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
Umude's offensive volume was low in comparison to his minute share, but the 24-year-old is becoming a regular member of Detroit rotation down the stretch. He has operated primarily as a spot-up threat across his NBA and G League tenures thus far, making it tough to foresee fantasy value down the stretch given the off-ball nature of his usage and Umude's infrequent defensive playmaking.

Umude is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Boston.
EDGE Analysis
Umude's current three-game stretch of double-digit minutes matches the longest streak of his career. He has been a staple of Detroit's G League team across the past two seasons, and Monday marks a continuation of an opportunity to carve out an NBA rotation role while Ausar Thompson (knee), Cade Cunningham (knee) and Simone Fontecchio (toe) are all inactive. It wouldn't be surprising to see Umude get 25-to-30 minutes of action Monday.

Detroit recalled Umude from the G League's Motor City Cruise on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Umude will be available for Tuesday's matchup against the Heat. However, he likely won't see any minutes as Detroit is at full strength, aside from Quentin Grimes (knee).

The Pistons are converting Umude from his two-way contract to a standard two-year deal Thursday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Umude has split time between the NBA and G League this season as one of the Pistons' two-way players. The 24-year-old guard is averaging 5.2 points and 1.8 rebounds in 11.2 points across his 17 NBA appearances in 2023-24. Umude will now spend the rest of the season with Detroit.
