The Brooklyn Nets announced several signings Thursday just before the July 4 holiday, officially signing three of their five rookies — Egor Demin, Ben Saraf and Danny Wolf — and giving Long Island Nets combo guard Tyson Etienne a two-way deal.
Both Drake Powell and Nolan Traore signings have been slowed by paperwork issues that expected to be resolved in a matter of days. Powell was part of last week’s three-way deal with the Boston Celtics and Atlanta Hawks that was centered on Kristaps Porzingis. That trade can’t be finalized till Sunday under league rules.
