Agbaji

Agbaji was waived by the Knicks earlier this month. Charania reported Friday that he was signed by the Thunder, but Oklahoma City is re-evaluating its open roster spot in light of losing Holmgren (knee) for at least two months. It appears Agbaji will have to catch on with another team.

Caruso will miss a second consecutive game with a sprained right ankle. The Thunder signed Ochai Agbaji on Friday to add wing depth, and he may play rotation minutes immediately.

Agbaji will fill out Oklahoma City’s depth, and with Jalen Williams (leg), Alex Caruso (ankle) and Cason Wallace (shoulder) all out, Agbaji could see some rotation minutes immediately. He’s only worth an add in deep leagues.

New York released Drew Eubanks earlier in the day, and Bradley and Agbaji are the latest cuts as the team pares down its roster ahead of the 2026-27 season.

Exhibit 9 contracts are non-guaranteed contracts for training camp that protect the team if the player suffers a significant injury before the start of the regular season. With the Knicks lacking cap space and needing depth, experienced veterans that can be had on minimum contracts like Agbaji and Wiseman are useful additions. Neither player should have much of an impact in fantasy leagues, though.

Available for Sunday’s season finale, Agbaji has not played in four of the Nets’ last five games. He isn’t guaranteed to get rotation minutes, so managers in active fantasy leagues should leave Agbaji on the waiver wire.

Making sense of which Nets reserves will figure prominently in Jordi Fernandez’s rotation on any given night is a near-impossible task. After totaling 15 minutes in losses to the Kings and Trail Blazers, Agbaji played 21 minutes in Friday’s loss to the Lakers. On Sunday, he earned 25 minutes and matched his season-high with 18 points. Hopefully, Agbaji’s performance was good enough to earn him more rotation minutes in Week 23, but that isn’t guaranteed.

Brooklyn lists a whopping seven players as out tonight, as the Nets speed toward a top pick in the 2026 NBA Draft. With Mann and Powell out, more minutes should be available for Nolan Traoré, Ziaire Williams, Ben Saraf and Ochai Agbaji.

Agbaji was initially listed as probable with an ankle injury for Saturday’s game against the 76ers, so his availability isn’t much of a surprise. The 25-year-old shooting guard should see rotation minutes with Michael Porter Jr. (ankle) ruled out, but Agbaji still isn’t worth rostering in most fantasy leagues.

Agbaji was not officially ruled out for either of the Nets’ last two games, but he did not see any action. With Michael Porter Jr. (ankle) likely to miss another game, there may be rotation minutes available to Agbaji. However, that isn’t enough to make him a player worth rostering in redraft leagues.
