Report: Nets expected to sign Aaron Gordon's older brother, Drew Gordon

Drew Gordon, the older brother of Magic star Aaron Gordon, is expected to sign with the Nets, a source tells Emiliano Carchia of Sportando. According to Carchia, the new deal for the elder Gordon will feature an Exhibit 10 clause.

Gordon, who went undrafted out of New Mexico in 2012, has bounced around various professional leagues since then, primarily playing overseas. In addition to a brief stint with the Sixers during the 2014-15 season, the 6-9 power forward has also spent time with clubs in Serbia, Italy, Turkey, France, Lithuania and Russia.

Most recently, Gordon played for Zenit St. Petersburg during the 2017-18 season. The 28-year-old recorded 11.1 PPG and 6.7 RPG in 21 VTB L eague games, along with 12.4 PPG and 7.0 RPG in 17 EuroCup contests.

Given the presence of an Exhibit 10 clause in Gordon’s reported agreement with the Nets, it seems likely that the club views him as a potential contributor for the Long Island Nets, Brooklyn’s G League affiliate.

Currently, the Nets have 18 players officially under contract. The team could fill its 20-man offseason roster by finalizing reported deals for Gordon and Alan Williams, who reached a two-way contract agreement with the Nets.
