The Brooklyn Nets have signed Kameron Hankerson and Trey McGowens

The Brooklyn Nets announced on Friday that they have signed guards Kameron Hankerson and Trey McGowens to the roster.

The Brooklyn Nets are in the first week of training camp in preparation for the 2023-24 season, but they are still making additions to the roster.

On Friday, the Nets announced the signings of guards of Kameron Hankerson and Trey McGowens. Most likely, these signings will be to add these players to the Nets’ G League affiliate, the Long Island Nets (LIN).

Hankerson, 25, played for LIN during the 2022-23 season after trying out for the team in October 2022. In 28 games, he averaged 5.5 points and 1.8 rebounds per game while shooting 39.9% from the field and 28% from deep. Hankerson played for Brooklyn this summer in the Vegas summer league and played 3.5 minutes per game in four appearances.

McGowens, 23, also played for Brooklyn in the Vegas summer league this summer after playing for Long Island last season. In 23 games played for the Long Island Nets, McGowens averaged 3.7 points and 1.2 rebounds per game while shooting 43.6% from the floor and 25% from three-point land.

Lakers to host Memphis’ Lester Quinones, others for pre-draft workout

Memphis junior Lester Quinones will be among the prospects to participate in a pre-draft workout with the Lakers on Tuesday.

Memphis junior Lester Quinones will be among the prospects to participate in a pre-draft workout with the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday, the team announced.

Quinones averaged 10 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.2 steals on 39% shooting from 3-point range last season with the Tigers. He ranked seventh among qualified players in the American Athletic Conference in 3-point percentage and 13th in 3-pointers made (55).

The 6-foot-5 guard has emerged as one of the top shooters in the draft this year. He has worked out with several other teams in the pre-draft process, including the Oklahoma City Thunder and Sacramento Kings, and will visit the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday.

In addition to Quinones, the Lakers will also host San Jose State guard Omari Moore, Purdue forward Trevion Williams, Nebraska guard Trey McGowens, Oregon guard Will Richardson and Texas Southern forward Brison Gresham on Tuesday.

The Lakers enter the pre-draft process with no picks in either round. The team dealt its first-round pick to the New Orleans Pelicans in the trade involving Anthony Davis. Its second-round selection was sent to the Washington Wizards in a cap-clearing move.

Despite having no draft picks, the Lakers will still do their due diligence on those fringe prospects that could go undrafted. The team could acquire picks to take a prospect or sign him outright in free agency after the draft.

The NBA draft will take place on June 23.
