Is Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot the Nets next success story?
Photo by Mitchell Leff/Getty ImagesTimothe Luwawu-Cabarrot had hit rock bottom last October. After a training camp and preseason with the lowly Cavaliers, he was waived. The 24-year-old had played four years with four teams after being taken at No. 24 in the 2016. Now he was out of a job ... but not out of advocates.
A week later, he signed a two-way deal with Brooklyn, reuniting him with Shaun Fein, the Long Island head coach. When TLC had joined Antibes in the French League as a teenager, Fein was the team’s veteran.
Fein knew Luwawu-Cabarrot’s potential as did others in Philadelphia, Oklahoma City and Chicago but he also knew his issues.
