Brooklyn Nets Waive Boatright, Miller, and Daniels
The Brooklyn Nets requested waivers on guard Ryan Boatright, forward Quincy Miller and center Chris Daniels, General Manager Billy King announced today.
Boatright (6’0”, 170) signed with Brooklyn as a free agent on July 2 after going undrafted out of Connecticut in the 2015 NBA Draft. In four preseason games with the Nets, Boatright posted averages of 4.3 points, 1.5 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 13.9 minutes per game.
Miller (6’9”, 210) was acquired by the Nets from the Detroit Pistons on July 13 in exchange for guard Steve Blake. In four preseason appearances with Brooklyn, Miller averaged 1.5 points and 2.0 rebounds in 7.4 minutes per game.
Daniels (6’9”, 265) signed with the Nets as a free agent on September 23 and averaged 7.4 points and 2.8 rebounds in 13.0 minutes per game across five preseason appearances with Brooklyn.
According to Nets Daily, if Boatright and Miller are not claimed they will fall into the NBA D-League pool. If they aren't claimed, either have the option to play in Europe or China.
It’s speculated that Daniels is most likely headed overseas where he has been all of his career.
The Nets roster now stands at 17 players.
Since NBA teams can only have 15 contracts on the roster by the start of the season, at least two more players will be cut.
