The Brooklyn Nets announced on Tuesday that they have waived forward Brandon Davies, who was acquired by the team in a deal that sent Andrei Kirilenko to the Philadelphia 76ers on December 11, 2014.

Davies, 23, whose contract was not guaranteed had the Nets waived him prior to Wednesday's, January 7, deadline.

He played in seven games with the Nets and posted averages of 2.3 points, 1.4 rebounds and 0.3 assists in 6.3 minutes per game. This was his second season in the league.

Brooklyn does save money in this move, as well.

Three players on the roster remain with non-guaranteed contracts: Darius Morris, Cory Jefferson and Jerome Jordan. The Nets have until 5:00 PM on Wednesday to decide whether or not they will pick up their contracts for the remainder of the season. However, it's unlikely any of them will be dumped. Nor, reports Mike Scott of Sheridan Hoops, are they likely to add a player on a 10-day contract, at least for now.

The Nets now have 14 players under contract and can, if they want, sign a player to a 10-day contract.
