Reid’s time at Roselle provided foreshadowing for his NBA career. He didn’t play heavy minutes as a freshman behind other players who went on to the NBA like Isaiah Briscoe and Chris Silva. Just as Reid had to wait his turn for minutes when he came to the Wolves as an undrafted free agent in 2019. “There was some frustration, some days he was really upset with me,” said his coach, Dave Boff. “... I think the best part about Naz is a lot of kids in that situation, top 10 kid in the country, they would’ve left, transferred, done something else. But he stuck with it, bought into what we were doing and I think a lot of that is why he’s been so resilient in the NBA.”

Former Kentucky guard Isaiah Briscoe has signed a contract with Ratiopharm Ulm of the German BBL and EuroCup, a source told Sportando. Briscoe played 39 games with the Orlando Magic last season, averaging 3.5 points, 1.9 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 14.3 minutes per game.

Isaiah Briscoe was signed to a three-year $3.9M contract last July but Orlando will have no future cap obligations past the 2018-19 season. The 2019-20 and 20-21 season were non-guaranteed (with trigger dates for partial protection). Briscoe is eligible to be claimed but only with a team that has a trade exception for $838K.
But if a team finishes the regular season with 16 or more players on its roster, a player signed via a hardship waiver would be ineligible to play or practice during the postseason. If a team finishes the regular season with 15 or fewer players on its roster, any of those 15 would be playoff eligible, even if he was signed via a hardship exception (assuming he was otherwise eligible). The two most likely candidates to be waived would be Jerian Grant or Briscoe.
John Denton: New @Orlando Magic G Michael Carter-Williams will compete with Jerian Grant for the backup point guard role behind starter, DJ Augustin. Isaiah Briscoe underwent arthroscopic knee surgery on Wednesday.
