The Nets have declined to sign Grant Nelson another 10-day contract, a move that is surprising for the team that is reshifting its roster. Nelson, who was acquired after the Nets took a record five first-round picks in June, was a sixth rookie after early season injury issues hampered his performance in the G League. Despite a strong performance with Long Island, Nelson was deemed not enough to stay with the Nets. However, any NBA team can sign him if they wish. The team has an open roster spot and may call up two-way forward Chaney Johnson, who has performed well recently.
