Both arrived in Brooklyn in early December (along with a second round pick in 2019) in exchange for Trevor Booker, who is now with the Indiana Pacers. Both are averaging around 13 minutes per game with the Nets this season, and both of whom have seen their playing time cut over the last few weeks.
And although Kenny Atkinson said good things about both, he did not indicate that either will get more time in the team’s last 16 games.
“We’ve got everybody healthy now and they had their little stint where they’ve got some minutes because we were down … but I’m thrilled with their approach,” Atkinson insists, regarding Stauskas and Okafor.
