Duke chipped in 10 points (4-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist in 21 minutes before fouling out of Thursday's 129-125 overtime loss to the Mavericks.

EDGE Analysis

Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving carried the Nets in this game and combined for almost 70 points, but Duke left his mark coming off the bench in his season debut and was the only non-starter who scored in double digits for Brooklyn. He should operate as a decent offensive weapon off the bench for the Nets, but he needs to show consistency before becoming an option in most fantasy formats.

The Nets signed Duke to a two-way contract Friday, Chris Milholen of NetsDaily.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Duke was signed by Brooklyn after he went undrafted out of Providence last year. He appeared in 22 NBA contests for Brooklyn and posted 4.7 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game. He was a standout for the Nets during Summer League -- 19.0 points, 4.6 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game -- and will look to parlay that into a solid role at the NBA level during 2022-23 campaign.

Duke was transferred from the G League's Long Island Nets to Brooklyn on Wednesday, Alec Sturm of NetsDaily.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Long Island was eliminated from the G League playoffs following a 133-116 loss to the Delaware Blue Coats on Tuesday. Duke hasn't seen NBA action since Feb. 28, and with the Nets fighting feverishly for playoff positioning, it's unlikely the undrafted rookie out of Providence cracks the rotation during the final three games of the regular season.

Duke registered 20 points (7-17 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds and five assists across 34 minutes in Thursday's 114-99 victory over Raptors 905.

EDGE Analysis

Duke struggled with his three-point shooting Thursday but still managed a very respectable and well-balanced stat line against the G League Raptors. He's making just 31.3 percent of the 5.3 shots from beyond the arc he averages per game this season.

Duke tallied 20 points (5-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), seven rebounds and three assists across 30 minutes in Tuesday's 116-105 victory over the Windy City Bulls.

EDGE Analysis

Duke shot 87.5 percent from the free-throw line against the Bulls on Tuesday, but he also had four turnovers in the win. He's been incredible from the stripe this season, making 90.9 percent of his three free-throws per game on average for Long Island.

Duke recorded two points (1-10 FG, 0-4 3Pt), eight rebounds, two assists and one steal in Monday's 100-80 loss to Fort Wayne.

EDGE Analysis

Duke struggled in his G League return, scoring a season low in points. The young guard is averaging 16.7 points, 6.2 rebounds and 3.1 assists in 29.1 minutes through nine games.

Duke (ankle) will play in Sunday's G League contest against the Fort Wayne Mad Ants, Alec Sturm of NetsDaily.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Duke had missed three straight games due to a right ankle sprain, but he's expected to return to action Sunday. Across seven appearances with the Long Island Nets, the 22-year-old is averaging 18.7 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 2.1 steals in 30.6 minutes.

Brooklyn is viewing Duke as out indefinitely after he suffered a left ankle sprain Sunday while playing for the G League's Long Island Nets, Alec Sturm of NetsDaily.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Duke recorded three points (1-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two assists and two steals across 11 minutes before he exited in the first half after a hard fall to the floor on a dunk attempt. He'll presumably rejoin Brooklyn in the coming days to undergo further tests on his ankle, which should give the team a better sense of how long he'll be sidelined. Regardless, the two-way rookie out of Providence won't be part of the Nets' plans at the NBA level.

Duke won't be available Sunday in the Nets' game against the Celtics after he was recently assigned to the G League's Long Island Nets.

EDGE Analysis

Duke's last appearance was a 19-minute outing Monday versus Toronto, but he likely wouldn't have seen the court if the game hadn't been a 36-point blowout loss. Since he's not a part of head coach Steve Nash's regular rotation, Duke will get some extended run while he's in the G League.

Duke had 13 points (5-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four steals, three rebounds and two assists across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 126-91 loss to the Celtics.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Steve Nash emptied the bench early in this one, and Duke racked up a career-high steal total in the process. He hadn't played for the Nets in any of the past eight games, so don't expect much from Duke moving forward, as he'll likely continue seeing action in the G League once Brooklyn regains some health.
