Auburn’s Keyshawn Hall Signs Undrafted Deal with Miami Heat
Auburn, AL – Former Auburn Tiger forward Keyshawn Hall has signed an Exhibit-10 contract with the Miami Heat, securing his first NBA opportunity after going undrafted in the 2026 NBA Draft .
Hall, who transferred to Auburn for his final collegiate season, made an immediate impact as the Tigers’ leading scorer and rebounder . The 6’7″, 225-pound forward averaged 19.3 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game across 36 contests, establishing himself as a top-five scorer in the SEC . He shot 45.1% from the field, 37.9% from three-point range, and an impressive 85.7% from the free-throw line .
Hall’s scoring prowess was a hallmark of his college career. In conference play, he elevated his production to 20.6 points per game . Prior to his season at Auburn, he led the Big 12 in scoring while at UCF, demonstrating consistent offensive ability at the highest levels of college basketball . His skill set includes a strong ability to drive to the basket and a reliable outside shot, making him a versatile forward prospect .
The Exhibit-10 contract is a non-guaranteed deal that allows Hall to compete for a roster spot with the Heat during training camp . If he is waived before the season begins and subsequently spends at least 60 days with the Heat’s G League affiliate, the Sioux Falls Skyforce, he could earn a bonus of up to $91,000 . The contract can also be converted into a standard two-way deal .
Hall was widely projected to be a second-round pick leading up to the draft, with a mock draft aggregate rank of 56 . He was ranked as the 75th-best prospect on ESPN’s big board . While he did not work out for the Heat prior to the draft, Miami moved quickly to sign him once he went undrafted .
Though his age and defensive consistency raised questions among scouts, Hall’s offensive production and shot-making ability drew significant attention from NBA teams . He set single-season school records for free throws made at both UCF and Auburn, highlighting his efficiency and aggressiveness in getting to the line .
Hall’s journey to the NBA has been unconventional, having played at four different schools in four years before finishing his college career at Auburn . His tenure with the Tigers, however, provided a final strong showcase of his scoring talent, now rewarded with an opportunity to compete for a spot with the Miami Heat.
