Nets sign Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot to second 10-day contract

The Brooklyn Nets are holding onto Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot for at least 10 more days.

On Friday, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot’s 10-day contract with the Brooklyn Nets expired.

On Saturday, the Nets announced Luwawu-Cabarrot has signed his second 10-day contract with the team, so the wing isn’t going anywhere.

Prior to signing his first 10-day deal, Luwawu-Cabarrot was on a two-way contract with the Nets. With the litany of injuries Brooklyn has dealt with throughout the 2019-20 season, the fourth-year wing carved out a spot for himself in the Nets’ rotation.

In 21 games, Luwawu-Cabarrot is scoring five points a night and grabbing 2.3 rebounds per game, while playing 16.5 minutes on average.

He scored a season-high 12 points on Monday in Brooklyn’s loss to the Philadelphia 76ers, when he went a perfect 4-for-4 from the floor (3-for-3 from 3-point territory). In the game prior, against the Eastern Conference-leading Milwaukee Bucks, Luwawu-Cabarrot scored 10 points.
