Overview

  • Brooklyn officially re-signed center Day'Ron Sharpe and signed forward E.J. Liddell to a two-way contract on Wednesday.
  • Sharpe’s pact is for two years at roughly $12 million, with one report detailing $12.5 million and a team option in year two.
  • Cap analysts report the Sharpe signing leaves the Nets with over $10 million in remaining room despite earlier delays for flexibility.
  • Liddell, a 2022 second-round pick who lost his rookie year to an ACL tear, logged just 20 NBA games but produced 15.7 points and 6.6 rebounds per game in the G League last season.
  • Roster math points to cuts or deals ahead, with two two-way spots now occupied, training-camp limits looming, and reports highlighting unresolved talks with restricted free agent Cam Thomas and an expected Ziaire Williams signing.
