Nets Notes: C. Johnson, Z. Williams, Evbuomwan, Irving

January 19th, 2025 at 11:20am CST by Rory Maher

The Nets aren’t sure if forward Cameron Johnson will be available for Sunday’s matchup in Oklahoma City, writes Brian Lewis of The New York Post. Brooklyn has gone 0-9 this season without Johnson, who is officially listed as questionable for the contest as he continues to deal with a right ankle sprain that has kept him on the sidelines for seven of the past eight games.

“It’s too early [to know] right now,” head coach Jordi Fernandez said about Johnson’s availability for Sunday. “He’s doing a great job with trying to get healthy and working every day and being around with the group.

“And that’s what we value the most, is his energy, his voice right now. And he still was doing his job [every] morning, and right now there’s no reason why we should make a decision, right? We want all our guys to be 100 percent healthy, to come back, and whenever the time comes, we will make a decision.”

According to Lewis, Johnson is the “most coveted player on the trade market right now,” but it’s certainly not a lock that he’ll be on the move by the February 6 deadline. Sources tell Lewis the Nets are reluctant to part with Johnson unless they receive two first-round picks or the equivalent in return, suggesting a talented young player on a team-friendly contract could be used in place of one of those first-rounders.

Here’s more on the Nets:

Fourth-year forward Ziaire Williams has drastically improved his outside shot of late, Lewis writes in another story for The Post. In his first 21 games prior to missing 12 contests with a knee injury, Williams had converted just 27.3% of his three-point attempts. However, in the nine games since he returned from the injury, he has converted an impressive 40.8% from long distance on significantly higher volume. “Yeah, man, shoot, they tell me constantly shoot, shoot, shoot,” said Williams, who will be eligible for restricted free agency in the summer. “So, I’ve got to be the one to believe in myself. And yes, it’s good out there. It feels good right now. And I’m just trying to just stay in this rhythm.”
Tosan Evbuomwan inked a two-way contract with Brooklyn at the beginning of the month and has impressed in a regular rotation role off the bench, Lewis adds. The second-year forward has averaged 12.8 points and 4.5 rebounds on .583/.375/.789 shooting over the past six games (24.8 minutes), scoring in double figures in five of those contests.
Kyrie Irving continues to sarcastically criticize the Nets nearly two years after he was traded to Dallas, according to Lewis. “Best trade in the business, baby. We won that trade!” Irving said Friday night after the Mavericks beat the Thunder, 106-98, then repeated for emphasis, “We won that trade! I was bad goods.”

Nets Notes: Lottery Prospects, Evbuomwan, Simmons, Russell, Johnson, Watford

January 13th, 2025 at 8:00am CST by Arthur Hill

From a draft standpoint, the Nets won by losing Sunday night at Utah, but the players weren’t happy with the outcome, writes Brian Lewis of The New York Post. They scored the final six points of regulation to force overtime, but saw the game slip away as Isaiah Collier drove for a nearly uncontested layup in the final seconds.

“I know this is kind of like a rebuild situation, but we’ve got to go in there like we want to win regardless of what the front office is expecting,” Ben Simmons said.

The Nets have been on a downward trajectory lately that has coincided with management’s decisions to trade away Dennis Schröder and Dorian Finney-Smith as part of a long-term rebuilding project. They’re 2-10 in their last 12 games and have moved from 15th to sixth in the lottery standings over the past month.

“We should have won but we just gotta keep chopping,” Nic Claxton added. “We’ve been losing a lot, and everybody’s tired of losing. They sat out all their players and we still lost.”

There’s more on the Nets:

Tosan Evbuomwan has been a tremendous addition since signing a two-way contract at the start of the month, Lewis states in a separate story. The second-year forward scored a career-high 22 points Sunday night and was often on the court late in the overtime contest. Evbuomwan is averaging 11.2 points and 4.2 rebounds through his five games as a Net. “Amazing … always under control,” coach Jordi Fernandez said. “Looks like a guy that has been there before and he’s 23. Very happy to see him, keep working with him, keep developing him. He’s doing his job.”
Simmons left the game midway through overtime after exceeding his minutes limit, Lewis adds. He played more than 31 minutes, which is more than the team’s medical staff wants to see considering his recent physical history. “Ben, I’m sure that if I asked him, he wanted to be in, but at the same time, we know where we started this summer,” Fernandez said. “We know where we are at right now. We like the progression, and we’re going to keep doing that. We’re going to do what’s best for him, his body, first and then for the team.” Simmons hasn’t been cleared to play in back-to-back games and will likely sit out Tuesday at Portland or Wednesday against the Clippers.
Fernandez couldn’t offer definite return dates for D’Angelo Russell, who missed his fourth straight game with a right shin contusion, or Cameron Johnson, who sat out for the fifth straight time with a sprained right ankle, Lewis adds in another piece. “Yeah, they’ve been doing their work and they’re day-to-day,” Fernandez said. “But we’re happy with what we’re seeing and how they’re working. Obviously they’re with the group. So is Trendon (Watford). And it’s just good to have them around and have some sweat equity and see them work.” Watford, who has a strained left hamstring, isn’t expected to return to action during the current road trip.

New York Notes: Johnson, Evbuomwan, KAT, Knicks

January 7th, 2025 at 7:30pm CST by Alex Kirschenbaum

Nets wing Keon Johnson is getting some extra run as a result of injuries up and down the roster, giving him an opportunity to showcase a broader range of skills, writes Bridget Reilly of The New York Post.

With Cam Thomas, Cameron Johnson and Ben Simmons all unavailable in a 123-94 blowout loss to the Sixers on Saturday, Johnson helped guide the club’s offense. The guard scored 15 points while grabbing eight rebounds and handing out eight assists.

“I’m always trying to prove myself and just show what I can bring to the league and to the table for my team,” Johnson said Saturday. “I feel like each night I get more and more comfortable, but my role doesn’t change. It doesn’t waiver. I know that I come in, play defense, play as hard as I can, and everything goes on [from there]. So, that’s what I’m focusing on, night in and night out.”

Johnson has thrived while playing in the stead of Thomas, who has missed all but two games since November 25 due to hamstring issues. Since that date, Johnson has averaged 10.6 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.2 steals in 19 games (15 starts) for Brooklyn.

There’s more out of New York:

The aforementioned health issues compelled the Nets to press newly signed two-way player Tosan Evbuomwan into service for the first time all year against Philadelphia on Saturday, Reilly notes in another piece. Brooklyn brought in Evbuomwan to help after he had some impressive games for the club’s NBAGL squad, the Long Island Nets. “This is what I work for, these types of opportunities,” Evbuomwan said. “Again, really blessed to be back here. So, whatever, everything that comes with it, I’m ready to take it in stride and kind of attack it. Collectively, I just got here but the team spirit is high.” After going undrafted out of Princeton in 2023, Evbuomwan wound up playing 17 games last season for the Grizzlies and Pistons. Through two games with Brooklyn, the 6’8″ forward is averaging 5.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 blocks in 22.5 minutes per contest.
Knicks All-Star center Karl-Anthony Towns sat out the club’s Monday tilt against the Magic with a right knee tendinopathy. The 103-94 defeat to Orlando represented New York’s third consecutive loss following a nine-game win streak, with Jericho Sims replacing Towns, whose versatility as a scorer was badly missed, notes Peter Botte of The New York Post. “He obviously brings a lot to the game, but it’s unfair to the rest of the guys on the team, who put in all the work, to say without him we weren’t able to do a lot,” All-NBA point guard Jalen Brunson said of playing without Towns. “We just need to come ready to play with energy, regardless of what happens.” In his 34 healthy games this year, the seven-footer out of Kentucky is averaging 25.3 points on .550/.440/.828 shooting splits. He’s also pulling down 14.0 rebounds and dishing out 3.4 assists per night.
The Knicks’ outlook this year is looking particularly sunny. Accordingly, James L. Edwards of The Athletic makes five New York-related predictions for the forthcoming calendar year. Edwards predicts a timeline for the Knicks’ next significant trade, the team’s postseason upside, and more.

Nets Notes: Thomas, Russell, Williams, December Trades

January 4th, 2025 at 9:49pm CST by Arthur Hill

The Nets aren’t sure what caused Cam Thomas‘ latest hamstring strain, coach Jordi Fernandez told reporters, including Bridget Reilly of The New York Post, before tonight’s game. Earlier today, the team announced that Thomas won’t be reevaluated until after the upcoming West Coast trip, which means he’ll be out of action for at least nine games.

Thomas has only played twice since returning from his first hamstring injury, scoring 25 points in 25 minutes Monday at Orlando and 24 points in 22 minutes Thursday at Milwaukee. It’s believed that the hamstring issue reemerged sometime during that second game.

“I think it was discomfort,” Fernandez said. “Because at some point, I can see the difference between the first half and second half, energy-wise and efficiency. But I can also think, ‘Well, you haven’t played in a while, so, you know, you’re not as fresh,’ so I don’t know. I have no idea, but, you know, he did a good job getting back and being ready to play. He started great, the two games. Orlando, and being able to get back, both games were very efficient in the first stint he played. And now this injury is — I feel for him because obviously we want CT with us, and he was doing a great job scoring efficiently. And you know, day-to-day, we want to have him around, and we will have him around, it’s just not on the court. But we know he’ll be back soon.”

There’s more from Brooklyn:

The Nets’ injury woes got worse in Saturday’s game against Philadelphia as D’Angelo Russell didn’t return after halftime due to a right shin contusion, Reilly states in a separate story. Russell was playing for just the third time since being acquired from the Lakers last weekend. Fernandez pulled his starters midway through the third quarter of the blowout loss, and Tosan Evbuomwan made his Nets debut after signing a two-way contract on Wednesday.
The team got a lift this week with the return of Ziaire Williams, who missed nearly a month with a knee injury, Reilly adds in another piece. The 23-year-old forward, who was added in a trade with Memphis over the summer, could see increased playing time while Cameron Johnson is sidelined with a sprained right ankle. “He made winning plays all over,” Fernandez said after Williams helped to seal a victory over the Bucks. “His energy was contagious. His deflections. Obviously, he made a couple of big shots, 2-for-4 from three, and the six rebounds, being all over the place. He was amazing. A lot of times, it’s just thinking, ‘I’m going to do whatever it takes for our team to win,’ and he did, and he was a big part of the win.”
In his latest Substack column, Jake Fischer examines whether the Nets got sufficient value by trading Dennis Schröder and Dorian Finney-Smith in December rather than waiting until closer to the deadline.

Nets Notes: Johnson, Marks, Russell, Evbuomwan

January 3rd, 2025 at 8:00am CST by Arthur Hill

X-rays were negative for Nets forward Cameron Johnson, who turned his ankle late in Thursday’s win at Milwaukee, writes Brian Lewis of The New York Post. The injury occurred when Johnson and Ziaire Williams both chased a rebound after a missed three-point attempt. Johnson appeared to land on Williams’ foot, causing the ball to go out of bounds.

Johnson hopped off the floor and had imaging done in the locker room after the game. Although he avoided a major injury, Lewis reports that Johnson was on crutches in the locker room and looks like he may be sidelined for a while.

“All I know is it was super loud, trying to get the ball, and Cam was behind me,” Williams said. “Yeah, I don’t know (what happened). I have to look back. But yeah, man, I kind of ruined the night. I hope it’s nothing serious. I feel really bad right now, I can’t lie to you, man. Yeah, it sucks when you get hurt in a fashion like that.”

Johnson led the team with 26 points while shooting 10-of-16 from the field and 6-of-12 from three-point range. He’s in the midst of the best season of his career, and he’s Brooklyn’s top remaining trade asset after dealing away Dennis Schröder and Dorian Finney-Smith.

“Yeah, unfortunate. Unfortunate,” D’Angelo Russell said. “He’s a strong guy, though. I know he’ll be back soon, and he’ll be back stronger. I’m not worried about him. He’ll be all right.”

There’s more on the Nets:

In an interview with Lewis, general manager Sean Marks says flexibility is the priority as he works to rebuild the team’s roster. The Nets have $70MM in projected cap space for this summer, along with more future draft picks than any other team. Marks eventually hopes to use those assets to bring star players to Brooklyn. “You have to be poised and position yourself to be able to have that opportunity,” he said. “We’re going to give ourselves the best chance to do that. Now, on whom and when, that’s TBD. But when we took over [in 2016], it was three or four seasons before we were able to say, ‘Hey, we’ve all of a sudden got a team that’s now able to contend. It’s a playoff team.’ And next year, you’re attracting a different caliber player … or players. So we know we’ve done it. We did it before. Now to be able to do it in this new CBA and hopefully reach that ultimate goal, we fell short. We didn’t come close. So the goal now is to be able to do it again, build it up and try and have another hit at it.”
Despite rumors of acrimony when Russell was traded away in 2019, Marks was happy to reacquire him in the Finney-Smith deal, Lewis tweets. “D-Lo the player, we’re accustomed to him, we’re used to him, we’ve been around him,” Marks said. “He’s been in our family before. There’s a level of continuity just from familiarity with the person. So bringing him back into this group, it’ll be exciting.”
The new two-way contract for Tosan Evbuomwan will cover two seasons, according to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype (Twitter link).

Nets Sign Tosan Evbuomwan To Two-Way Deal

January 1st, 2025 at 11:00am CST by Rory Maher

11:00am: The signing is official, per a press release from the Nets. As expected, Jaylen Martin has been waived to open the two-way slot for Evbuomwan.

9:42am: The Nets are signing free agent forward Tosan Evbuomwan to a two-way contract, agent George S. Langberg tells Shams Charania of ESPN (Twitter link).

A native of the United Kingdom, Evbuomwan went undrafted in 2023 after starring in college at Princeton. He initially signed an Exhibit 10 deal with Detroit and was waived before the 2023/24 season began.

After spending the early portion of his rookie campaign in the NBA G League with the Motor City Cruise, Evbuomwan signed a 10-day hardship deal with Memphis at the end of January 2024. Shortly after that contract expired, he caught on with Detroit, signing a 10-day deal and then re-signing with the Pistons on two-way deal that covered two seasons.

Evbuomwan averaged 5.9 points and 3.5 rebounds in 21.6 minutes per game in 17 total NBA appearances (eight starts) with Memphis and Detroit, posting a shooting line of .507/.375/.680. In 34 G League outings with the Cruise in ’23/24, he put up averages of 15.1 PPG, 8.6 RPG, and 3.8 APG on .554/.361/.754 shooting in 34.2 MPG.

The 23-year-old was released by Detroit in October, then signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Clippers, was waived, and had his NBAGL rights acquired by the San Diego Clippers. In 18 total games with San Diego this season, the 6’8″ combo forward has averaged 19.0 PPG, 6.8 RPG and 1.8 APG on .519/.338/.726 shooting in 32.5 MPG.

A report on Tuesday indicated that Clippers forward Jordan Miller is a strong candidate to be promoted from his two-way deal to a standard contract, but the team needs to open up a roster standard spot for that to happen. Evbuomwan was mentioned as a candidate to replace Miller’s two-way spot if he were promoted, but instead he’ll be heading to the Nets.

As our tracker shows, Brooklyn’s three two-way spots are currently occupied by Jaylen Martin, Tyrese Martin and Reece Beekman. One of those players will have to be released to make room for Evbuomwan.

It would be surprising if Tyrese Martin is the one who gets cut, considering he’s been playing regular minutes for the Nets of late. Brooklyn also just acquired Beekman a couple weeks ago in a trade with Golden State. Perhaps that will leave Jaylen Martin as the odd man out.

Pacific Rumors: Finney-Smith, Lakers, Kings, Fox, Clippers

December 31st, 2024 at 3:34pm CST by Luke Adams

After acquiring him from Brooklyn, the Lakers would like to hang onto three-and-D forward Dorian Finney-Smith long-term, says Michael Scotto of HoopsHype. However, Scotto hears that the early expectation is that Finney-Smith will decline his $15.4MM player option for the 2025/26 season in order to test free agency.

While it’s unclear if Finney-Smith could exceed that $15.4MM figure in terms of average annual salary on a new contract, he could certainly secure a larger overall guarantee with a new multiyear deal.

According to Scotto, besides the Lakers, other teams that had interest in Finney-Smith before the Nets traded him to Los Angeles included the Grizzlies, Mavericks, Nuggets, Warriors, Kings, and Pacers. That doesn’t necessarily mean all of those clubs will be in the mix if and when Finney-Smith reaches free agency, but they could be some of the potential suitors to watch.

Here are a few more items of interest from around the Pacific:

The next item on the Lakers‘ wish list is a backup center, according to Scotto, who says Wizards center Jonas Valanciunas is still very much a potential target for Los Angeles. As they peruse the market for a big man, the Lakers are expected to dangle Gabe Vincent and their remaining second-round draft capital, sources tell Scotto. The team still controls its own 2025 second-round pick, as well as the Clippers’ 2025 second-rounder.
Teams around the NBA are keeping an eye on the Kings to see if they’ll end up making a panic trade in the hopes of turning their season around, Scotto writes, reporting that Nets forward Cameron Johnson has been a consistent target for Sacramento. The biggest question among rival executives, Scotto says, is whether the Kings would entertain the idea of a De’Aaron Fox trade. There’s a sense from some around the league that Fox would have to request a trade for Sacramento to seriously consider moving him, Scotto adds.
League sources tell HoopsHype that Clippers two-way player Jordan Miller is a strong candidate for a promotion to the 15-man roster if the team can open up a spot for him. In that scenario, San Diego Clippers standouts Tosan Evbuomwan or RayJ Dennis would be among the contenders for the newly opened two-way slot, Scotto writes.

Pacific Notes: Suns, Jones, DeRozan, Hield, Clippers

October 31st, 2024 at 7:13pm CST by Luke Adams

The Suns didn’t have a traditional point guard in their starting lineup for most of the 2023/24 season, deploying shooting guards Devin Booker and Bradley Beal as their primary ball-handlers. While Booker tells Ramona Shelburne of ESPN that “we were willing to learn and do it,” Beal admits the adjustment to the new role wasn’t a smooth one.

“They were using me more as a facilitator than a scorer and honestly, that kind of f—ed with my head,” Beal told ESPN. “Literally this whole summer, I had just had a whole reflection, just like, ‘Who are you?’ I had to have a real talk with myself, you know. I took some time to look at myself in the mirror to answer: ‘What do I need to do better? Who am I?’ And then just get back to that.”

Recognizing that a more traditional point guard would help maximize the offensive abilities of the Suns’ stars, the front office entered free agency this summer looking to address the position using its limited resources. Phoenix was able to land Monte Morris on a minimum-salary contract, then improbably signed Tyus Jones to a similar deal.

As Shelburne writes, Jones received interest from teams like the Wizards, Pistons, Spurs, and Nets, and could have signed for $8-12MM per year if he had been willing to join a lottery-bound club. Faced with a decision on whether to go for the money or to take a discount to join a contender and revisit free agency in 2025, Jones opted for the latter route after San Antonio signed Chris Paul.

Through four games with the Suns, Jones has been his usual efficient self, running the offense, knocking down three-pointers, and taking care of the ball. He has made 37.5% of his outside shots and has compiled 24 assists to just three turnovers.

“Tyus makes our life so much easier,” Beal told Shelburne. “I have a lot more weight off my shoulders. We can just go do what everybody knows us for.”

Here’s more from around the Pacific:

DeMar DeRozan‘s ability to get to the free throw line and make his foul shots has helped make an already-dangerous Kings offense even better, writes Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee. Sacramento finished dead last in the NBA last season with a 74.5% free throw percentage, but ranks second so far this season at 82.8%. DeRozan is 26-of-31 (83.9%) from the line through four games.
Jazz head coach Will Hardy, whose team fell to the new-look Kings on Tuesday, said his first thought was “oh no” when he learned Sacramento had acquired DeRozan this past offseason, according to Anderson. “That’s a whole different thing to have to prepare for,” Hardy said. “(De’Aaron) Fox, (Domantas) Sabonis (and) the up-tempo style was already enough of a problem to gameplan for and prep your team for. … It’s like pitching in baseball. You can’t throw a fastball every pitch. I think having that change of pace with DeMar, a change in style, is going to be beneficial for them as they go throughout the season.”
Buddy Hield, who joined the Warriors on a four-year, $37.8MM contract this offseason, has given his new team exactly what it was looking for from him, says Marcus Thompson II of The Athletic. Hield leads the NBA with 24 made three-pointers and has knocked down 50% of his attempts in his first five games. “He knows what he does well,” Brandin Podziemski said prior to Wednesday’s win in New Orleans. “Obviously, he’s shown that for the first four games. He knows what’s made him a bunch of money in this league and has helped him win.”
The San Diego Clippers’ roster for training camp includes a handful of players with NBA experience, with forward Braxton Key, forward Tosan Evbuomwan, and guard Nate Darling among those in camp with the Clippers‘ G League affiliate.

G League Notes: Knicks, Shamet, Ryan, Bronny, Knox, More

October 25th, 2024 at 8:25pm CST by Luke Adams

The Cleveland Charge, the Cavaliers‘ G League affiliate, announced on Friday (via Twitter) that they’ve traded the No. 2 pick in Saturday’s NBAGL draft to the Westchester Knicks in exchange for the No. 3 pick and the returning rights to two players (forwards Troy Baxter Jr. and Milhan Charles).

As a result of the deal, the Knicks’ G League team now holds the top two picks in Saturday’s draft, and Marc Stein (Twitter links) reports that there’s an expectation Westchester will use those selections to nab veteran wings Landry Shamet and Matt Ryan, both of whom are draft-eligible in the NBAGL this fall.

As Stein explains, the Knicks want Landry Shamet to be able to rehab his dislocated shoulder within the organization and have been eyeing Ryan as a potential roster addition at the NBA level. Having both players at Westchester wouldn’t stop another NBA team from poaching them, but it would put the Knicks in good position to promote one or both of them to the NBA squad at some point this season.

According to Ian Begley of SNY.tv (Twitter link), there’s still optimism within the organization that Shamet will be able to avoid surgery on his right shoulder injury.

Here are a few more G League notes ahead of Saturday’s draft:

Lakers guard Bronny James will travel with the team on its upcoming road trip from October 28 to November 6 and then will begin bouncing back and forth between the NBA and the G League, according to Shams Charania and Dave McMenamin of ESPN, who share more details on the Lakers’ plans for the rookie. The NBAGL’s fall “Tip-Off Tournament” begins on Nov. 8.
The Santa Cruz Warriors, Golden State’s affiliate, acquired the returning rights for Kevin Knox in a three-team trade with the Rip City Remix (Trail Blazers) and Westchester Knicks, per a press release. Knox had been in camp with the Warriors, but his contract didn’t include Exhibit 10 language, so it didn’t appear he was planning to join the team’s G League affiliate. Santa Cruz’s trade suggests that may happen after all.
The San Diego Clippers acquired Tosan Evbuomwan‘s returning rights along with the No. 31 pick in Saturday’s G League draft from the Motor City Cruise (Pistons) in exchange for this year’s No. 12 pick and a 2025 first-rounder (Twitter link). The deal ensures that Evbuomwan, who was signed and waived by the Clippers last week, will be eligible for his $77.5K Exhibit 10 bonus as a returning rights player for L.A.’s affiliate.
The Texas Legends (Mavericks) have traded the returning rights for guard Mike Miles to the Iowa Wolves (Timberwolves) in exchange for a 2025 second-round pick and a 2025 international draft pick, the team announced in a press release. Miles averaged 10.8 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 2.7 assists in 21.4 minutes per game across 29 appearances for the Legends last season.

Clippers Waive Elijah Harkless, Alondes Williams, Braxton Key

October 19th, 2024 at 4:46pm CST by Arthur Hill

The Clippers have waived guards Elijah Harkless and Alondes Williams, along with forward Braxton Key, according to NBA.com’s transactions log. In addition, Tosan Evbuomwan has officially been signed and waived.

Harkless played for the team’s G League affiliate last season and seems likely to return there. He averaged 11.6 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 20 regular season G League games a year ago.

Williams appeared in seven games after signing a two-way contract with Miami in February. He was also on a two-way deal with Brooklyn in 2022/23, making one short appearance in an NBA game.

Key got into 20 games on a two-way contract with Denver last season. He also has brief NBA experience with Philadelphia and Detroit.

Evbuomwan signed with the Clippers after being waived on Wednesday by Detroit, where he held a two-way contract. He appeared in 13 games for the Pistons and four with the Grizzlies last season.

All four players appear headed to the Clippers’ G League affiliate in San Diego, where they will be eligible for bonuses up to $77.5K if they remain with the team for at least 60 days.

The Clippers will have 15 players with standard contracts on their opening-night roster, along with three two-way deals.
