Ennis agreed to a contract Tuesday with Russian club BC Samara, Alessandro Maggi of Sportando.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 32-year-old journeyman forward was unlikely to land anything more than a training-camp deal had he elected to continue his career in North America, so he'll head overseas on what's presumably a more lucrative deal. Ennis appeared in seven games with the Nets, Nuggets and Clippers in 2021-22 over the course of three 10-day deals, averaging 4.1 points, 1.7 rebounds and 0.4 assists in 8.0 minutes per contest.

Denver didn't re-sign Ennis after his 10-day contract expired Thursday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Nuggets still have an opening on the 15-man roster, but Denver may prefer to keep that spot open for flexibility purposes ahead of the Feb. 10 trade deadline. For the past month, Ennis has bounced between the Nets, Clippers and Nuggets on a series of 10-day deals, averaging 4.1 points and 1.7 rebounds in 8.0 minutes per game over his seven appearances across those three teams.

The Nuggets are playing to sign Ennis to a 10-day hardship deal Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ennis recently concluded a 10-day contract with the Clippers and was in line to sign a hardship deal with Utah before the deal was nixed over COVID-19 protocols. Assuming Ennis is able to clear his COVID-19 intake testing, Charania reports that Ennis will be available for Denver when it faces the Clippers on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis
Ennis recently concluded a 10-day contract with the Clippers, but he'll have to wait before joining another organization while following the league's health and safety protocols. He has averaged 6.3 points and 2.5 rebounds in 10.5 minutes per game during his four appearances with the Nets and Clippers this season.

The Brooklyn Nets are planning to sign Ennis via hardship exemption, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Nets currently have seven players in the NBA's health and safety protocol and have an eighth player out in Joe Harris with an ankle injury. With so many players out, Brooklyn has been granted a hardship exemption to sign a player to their active roster and seem to be close to having a deal with Ennis. The 30-year-old forward played for Orlando last season, appearing in 41 games while averaging a career best 8.4 points and four rebounds in 24 minutes per contest.

Ennis (calf) may not play again this season, Roy Parry of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ennis has already been ruled out of Wednesday's game against Boston, and coach Steve Clifford intimated that the wing -- as well as a few other injured Magic players -- may not return before the end of the regular season. "I don't even know what the time frame [is]," Clifford said. "If you look at the schedule now, it's seven games, I think it'd be 12 days, and I'm not sure even if any of those guys are that close, to be honest with you." Ennis was able to play in two games last week, but his calf injury has kept him out of eight of the last 10 contests, including Wednesday.

Ennis (calf) is out Wednesday against the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
Ennis will be sidelined for a third straight game as he recovers from right calf soreness. In his absence, Dwayne Bacon and R.J. Hampton should continue seeing extra minutes.

Ennis (calf) will not play Monday at Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
A sore right calf will cause Ennis to sit out for the seventh time in the last nine games. As the Magic play out the string on a rebuilding season, don't expect Ennis to be rushed back to action before he's 100 percent healthy.
