Clippers sign Miye Oni and Nathan Mensah, waive Fletcher Loyer

The LA Clippers signed free agents Miye Oni and Nathan Mensah to non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 contracts, the team announced, waiving Fletcher Loyer in a related move. Loyer had also been on an Exhibit 10 deal.

Oni, 29, was the 58th overall pick in the 2019 draft out of Yale and played three seasons with the Jazz from 2019 to 2022. The 6-foot-5 wing, who competes for the Nigerian national team, has since split time between the G League and international stops, including the London Lions, Osceola Magic, Criollos de Caguas and Joventut Badalona, and he played in Puerto Rico and the Basketball Africa League last season. His last NBA stint was a 2024 preseason run with the Grizzlies.

Mensah, a 6-foot-9 center from Ghana, went undrafted in 2023 and spent part of the 2023-24 season on a two-way contract with the Hornets, appearing in 25 NBA games. The 28-year-old has also played in the G League, Greece, Romania and Turkey, and he suited up once for the San Diego Clippers last season.

Both signings point toward the G League: if Oni and Mensah are waived in the coming days, each would be in line for a bonus worth up to $91,000 on top of his G League salary by spending at least 60 days with San Diego in 2026-27.
