The Brooklyn Nets waived guard Keon Johnson on Wednesday, continuing an offseason roster overhaul. Johnson joined the Nets on a two-way contract ahead of the 2023-24 campaign before signing a two-year, standard deal last offseason.

The former Clippers first-round pick saw an expanded role on a tanking Brooklyn squad last season. He appeared in 79 games with 56 starts, averaging 10.6 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists. While he impressed as a point-of-attack defender, he struggled from an efficiency standpoint offensively, shooting 38.9 percent from the field.

Johnson was one of several non-guaranteed Nets players on the roster bubble following the team's busy offseason.
