The Wizards added four more names to their camp mix on Exhibit 10 deals, signing Reece Beekman, Trevor Keels, Chris Livingston and another player, while waiving KeShawn Murphy in a corresponding move.
Beekman has already logged NBA time with the Warriors and Nets, while Keels has had stops with the Knicks and Heat. Livingston has NBA experience with the Bucks and Cavaliers. The source also notes that Settle spent last season in the G League with the Sioux Falls Skyforce, Miami’s affiliate, after going undrafted last year out of Temple.
Minnesota is also set for a busy camp. The Timberwolves now have a full 21-man roster, and their training camp runs from September 29 through October 3.
KJ Martin, Drew Timme, Norchad Omier and Antonio Reeves are all on non-guaranteed camp contracts, joining 14 players on standard deals and three on two-way contracts. Timme’s deal was the last one still waiting to be finalized, and it is now official.
Martin and Timme are the two players being mentioned as competitors for a regular season roster spot.
Elsewhere, the Nets cleared room by waiving Nick Pringle, who had been on a training camp contract.
The Clippers made two cuts of their own, waiving Jason Preston and Hunter Sallis. Both players can now qualify for a bonus worth up to $91K if they suit up for the team’s NBAGL affiliate in San Diego.
Detroit, meanwhile, brought back Brice Williams on a training camp deal. It’s an Exhibit 10 contract, and Williams spent last season with the Motor City Cruise after signing an E10 deal with the Pistons last fall.

Nets Camp Puts Big Pressure On Two First Round Rookies
Training camp is bringing immediate attention to Brooklyns two first-round additions, with Mikel Brown Jr. and Joshua Jefferson arriving as the newest pieces in a roster that is still taking shape under Jordi Fernandez. Brown, taken by the Nets in the 2026 NBA Draft, comes in as a raw guard with clear scoring upside, while Jefferson profiles as a developmental frontcourt option whose path may depend on how quickly he settles into the NBA game.
For Brooklyn, the appeal is obvious, but so is the pressure. Brown could find himself in the mix for the starting point guard job, while Jefferson is looking at a potential role as a backup big man, and neither player is being handed anything as camp opens. With minutes up for grabs and competition already in place, the Nets will learn early how ready their two first-rounders are to turn promise into something more immediate. [Read more 🡒]
Nets Camp Battle Could Decide Which Young Forwards Actually Matter
The forward rotation is one of the more interesting pieces of Brooklyns preseason picture, with Julius Randle and Michael Porter Jr. set to open as the starters and the real fight coming behind them. That leaves a crowded group of Josh Minott, Danny Wolf, Noah Clowney and Joshua Jefferson competing for the backup minutes, a setup that gives the Nets both options and questions as camp unfolds.
Minott arrives with a new two-year contract, while Clowney is entering the final year of his rookie deal, adding a little extra weight to a battle that is about more than just filling out the bench. Coach Jordi Fernndez will sort through which of these forwards best fits his approach, and for a team trying to define its identity, the answer could help determine which young players actually become part of the plan.

Nets Are Betting On One Risk Before Their Next Big Move
Sean Marks continues to frame the Nets' direction around patience, flexibility and internal growth, with the front office keeping its options open as the roster takes shape. The general manager pointed to the development of young players such as Julius Randle, Michael Porter Jr., Egor Demin and Mikel Brown Jr., while also stressing the value of cost-effective contracts as Brooklyn tries to keep its books clean for whatever comes next.
The appeal of that approach is obvious for a team still trying to build toward its next major move, but it also asks the Nets to trust the process in the present. For now, there are no confirmed trades or signings attached to Marks' comments, only a clear picture of an organization betting that young talent and financial flexibility can set up the real opportunity when it arrives.
