Nets Sign Ellis for Defensive Boost | Brooklyn Nets News

Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description

The Nets just locked up Keon Ellis on a two-year, $18M deal with a mutual option — a savvy move to inject veteran defense and perimeter shooting into their young backcourt. Ellis, a 40.7% three-point shooter who struggled in the playoffs but excels at steals per possession, reunites with coach Jordi Fernández from their Sacramento days. With the Nets’ defense in need of upgrades and their roster still thin at center after trading Nic Claxton, Ellis offers immediate impact while keeping costs low. Meanwhile, the Nets eye big men like Mitchell Robinson or Moritz Wagner to pair with Day’Ron Sharpe — but for now, Ellis is a crucial piece in building a more competitive team.
