Nets filling open roster spot after Ben Simmons buyout
Briefly

The Brooklyn Nets are promoting Tyrese Martin from a two-way contract to a standard contract as he has become a valuable player as the team approaches the second half of the season. This decision comes after the Nets bought out Ben Simmons and waived Bojan Bogdanovic, who underwent season-ending foot surgery. Coach Jordi Fernandez praised Martin for his hard work and contribution to the team's culture, making it fitting for the Nets to make this move to secure his talents.
"Nobody deserves it more than him, he's worked the whole summer. He's about what we're trying to build here. He helps us build the culture."
"Martin has to continue to do what he's doing. That's why he's earned what he's earned. We need continuity, and that's why we reward continuity."
