Within a week of cutting ties with frontcourt piece Tosan Evbuomwan<\/a>, a two-year pro on a two-way contract, the Brooklyn Nets have found his replacement<\/a>. On Wednesday, the Manhattan Mad-Hatters agreed to sign former Ohio State standout EJ Liddell<\/a> to a two-way contract, per HoopsHype senior insider Michael Scotto. It will be the third two-way contract Liddell has signed in his burgeoning career.<\/p>\n

Nets Sign EJ Liddell To Two-Way Contract<\/h2>\n

The 41st overall pick in 2022 NBA Draft, Liddell has averaged 16.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.0 blocks per game in 53 G League appearances. Notably, the All-American managed to find his touch beyond the arc, a major concern the previous season. While taking 5.4 3-point attempts per game, he shot 36.1 percent from deep. That’s a far cry from his rookie showing, when he made 27.0 percent of his 3s.<\/p>\n
