Nets Sign Ellis for 2-Year, $18M Deal | Brooklyn Nets News

The Brooklyn Nets just pulled off a savvy move, signing sharpshooting guard Keon Ellis to a two-year, $18M deal with a mutual option — a perfect fit for coach Jordi Fernandez, who coached him in Sacramento. Ellis, a 26-year-old undrafted gem with elite three-point shooting (40.7%) and elite defense, brings exactly what the Nets need to bolster their backcourt. While he’s making more than some of his peers, his shooting and defensive versatility justify the price tag. With over $30M still in cap space, the Nets are just getting started — and this signing could be the foundation of their next big move.
