Nets Sign Tre Scott to 10-Day Hardship Deal
The move uses the NBA’s hardship exception triggered by four frontcourt injuries.
Overview
- Brooklyn added the 29-year-old forward on a 10-day contract that runs through April 11 and pays $117,730.
- A hardship exception lets a team add a short-term player without waiving anyone when four players are out with injuries.
- The Nets qualified with Day’Ron Sharpe, Egor Dëmin, Michael Porter Jr., and Danny Wolf each sidelined for three straight games and expected to miss more time.
- Porter’s return is considered doubtful, and Wolf is in a walking boot and not expected to play again this spring.
- Scott averaged 12.0 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 1.9 assists in 47 games for the Long Island Nets this season, and a debut for Brooklyn would be his first NBA game since two brief Cavaliers appearances in 2021.
