The Brooklyn Nets have announced they signed forward Henry Sims to a 10-day contract Tuesday as their final roster spot.

General Manager Sean Marks hopes to use 10-day contracts as a talent evaluator, hoping he’ll have the same luck as he did with current 10-day signee Sean Kilpatrick.

Sims averaged 15.7 PPG on 54% field-goal shooting and 8.9 RPG on the Grand Rapids Drive D-League team this season.

Last season as a 76er, Sims averaged 8 PPG and 4.9 RPG in under 20 minutes of action.
