Newman (hamstring) did not play in Monday's contest against Agua Caliente.

EDGE Analysis

Newman has been a minor rotation piece for the Skyforce this season, averaging 19.6 minutes in 12 games. The guard will aim to make an appearance during Friday's contest.

Newman signed a G-League contract with the Sioux Falls Skyforce on Wednesday, Adam Johnson of 2 Ways and 10 Days reports.

EDGE Analysis

Newman couldn't make the Heat's final roster, but will play for the organization's G-League affiliate. He was honored as the Big 12 Tournament's Most Outstanding Player last season and totaled 16 points in 49 summer league minutes for the Lakers.

Newman was waived by the Heat on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Newman only saw limited run during the preseason schedule and didn't do enough to impress the coaching staff. As a result, he'll be waived and is a strong candidate to join the team's G-League affiliate for the start of the season.

Newman and the Heat agreed on a contract Friday, Michael Scotto of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

While the terms of the deal have not been disclosed, the contract is likely for training camp. Undrafted this June after two years at Kansas, Newman appeared in five summer league games for the Lakers, totaling 16 points in 48.5 minutes. Last season, he was honored as the Big 12 Tournament's Most Outstanding Player.

Newman was waived by the Lakers on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The Lakers signed Newman in June, seemingly with the expectation he'd play well enough in summer league to justify the contract. However, across five games, he averaged just 3.2 points while playing 9.8 minutes.

Newman (foot) will be available to play during Saturday's summer league tilt against the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

Newman, who has been nursing a foot injury, is healthy enough to participate in Saturday's contest. The two-way player out of Kansas shot 53.6 percent from beyond the arc in the Big 12 and NCAA Tournaments.

Newman is sitting out Tuesday's summer league matchup against the Heat due to a foot injury, Mike Trudell of Lakers.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Newman was also held out of Monday's summer league opener, though this is the first we're hearing of the foot injury. Either way, it's now costed Newman two straight games and also brings his status into question ahead of Thursday's outing vs. the Warriors. Already signed to a two-way contract, Newman is expected to be with the Lakers during training camp, but will then spend the bulk of his rookie campaign with the team's G-League affiliate.
