When the clock struck 5 p.m. Friday, two Nets on non-guaranteed deals became full guaranteed. DeAndre’ Bembry is now guaranteed at the league minimum. And although there was no announcement, it appears that Duke has also passed the milestone as a two-way player. Duke in fact started Friday’s game vs. the Bucks, scoring the first basket of the game for Brooklyn.
All NBA players on non- or partially guaranteed deals get a full deal if they’re still on the roster at 5 p.m.

The Brooklyn Nets plan to keep DeAndre’ Bembry and fully guarantee his contract for this season, league sources told @hoopshype.
