Brooklyn Nets forward Rodions Kurucs made a brief city court appearance in his domestic-violence case Monday, just two days before his team’s home-opener.
The 6-foot-9 NBA star arrived in Brooklyn court dressed in a dark suit and stayed mum as he was ordered back to court Nov. 19.
Kurucs, 21 — whose team will face off against the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Nets’ home-opener Wednesday — is accused of assaulting his 32-year-old live-in girlfriend June 27 in their Gowanus, Brooklyn, apartment.
During the argument, the Latvian-born player allegedly grabbed a knife and threatened to kill himself, sources said.
