Nets’ Dzanan Musa takes encouraging step

LAS VEGAS — As NBA starters, Jarrett Allen and Rodions Kurucs are supposed to be the givens on the Nets’ summer league roster — and they looked the part Wednesday night.

But every bit as encouraging was the work put in by Theo Pinson and Dzanan Musa in a 93-85 win over the Magic.

Allen had a double-double with 14 points, 13 rebounds and two blocks, while Kurucs had yet another strong game with 14 points.

But Musa has increasingly found his footing as summer league has progressed, pouring in a team-high 20 points. Pinson celebrated signing a two-year NBA contract Monday night with another all-around effort to help the Nets improve to 3-1.
