Nets signing former lottery pick Killian Hayes for possible guard depth
NY Post
The Nets are taking a chance on a former lottery pick.
Killian Hayes, a point guard who was drafted seventh overall just four years ago, has agreed to join Brooklyn on a one-year, Exhibit 10 deal, a source told The Post — meaning it’s essentially a tryout contract.
The expectation is that he’ll compete for a roster spot in training camp, another source added.
Hayes worked out in front of the Nets, among other teams, recently in Las Vegas.
He was a free agent after a disappointing stint with the Pistons, who released him in February amid an ugly 14-win campaign.
Hayes, who turns 23 on Friday, struggled with his efficiency and 3-point shot, in particular, firing at a career 27.7 percent clip from beyond the arc.
