Brooklyn Nets Extend Malachi Smith's Contract

Brooklyn Nets extend combo guard Malachi Smiths contract, boosting his NBA stock. Smith, an undrafted Gonzaga product, has impressed with his performance in the G League, averaging nearly 18 points, 7 assists, and 5.5 rebounds per game. In his first NBA outings, he shot 50% from the field and three-point range, scoring a career-high 18 points against the Sacramento Kings. However, this move hurts Long Island Nets, who have lost five straight games and missed key players. Smiths second ten-day contract runs through April 4th, and the Nets will decide whether to convert him to a standard NBA contract or send him back to Long Island.
