Black signed a contract Sunday with Bahcesehir of the Turkish Basketball Super League.

EDGE Analysis

After being cut by the Nuggets in training camp, Black has spent the entire 2021-22 campaign with Denver's G League affiliate, the Grand Rapids Gold. The 30-year-old big man, who most recently played in the NBA with the Rockets in the 2017-18 season, averaged 11.5 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.3 blocks and 0.7 steals in 24/7 minutes per game over 15 appearances with the Gold.

Black recorded 18 points (7-10 F, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists, one steal and two blocks over 29 minutes during Sunday's 106-103 loss to the Go-Go.

EDGE Analysis

This marked the veteran center's second straight game recording at least 18 points and 10 rebounds as he continues to shine as the G League dwindles along. Black will look to keep up his solid play as he starts to earn more minutes with the Gold.

Black finished with 18 points (4-6 FG, 5-6 FT), 12 rebounds, five assists, two steals and one block across 29 minutes during Saturday's 124-122 win over Fort Wayne.

EDGE Analysis

The center led the Gold in rebounds, steals and blocks during Saturday's close win. Black is averaging 11.1 points, 9.0 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game this season with Grand Rapids.

Black ended with 14 points (7-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt), 15 rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block across 30 minutes during Sunday's 115-111 loss to the Blue Coats.

EDGE Analysis

The journeyman center had perhaps his best game of the G League season thus far as he finished with an impressive double-double. In fact, nine out of his 15 rebounds came on the offensive side of the floor. Black will look to build off this performance during Monday's rematch against Delaware.

Black was waived by the Nuggets on Saturday, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Black joined the Nuggets on a training camp deal in late September. He'll likely head to the G League if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Black signed a training camp contract with the Nuggets on Thursday, Priority Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 29-year-old big man hasn't seen NBA action since 2017-18 with the Rockets, where he averaged 3.5 points and 3.2 rebounds in 10.5 minutes. Last season, he played overseas with Zenit Saint Petersburg. In Euroleague play, he averaged 5.2 points and 3.5 rebounds in 14.8 minutes.

Black has agreed to a one-year contract with Maccabi Tel Aviv, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Black appeared in 51 games with the Rockets last season, averaging 3.5 points and 3.2 rebounds across 10.5 minutes. The 26-year-old big man will head overseas for the upcoming season, as it's unlikely he garnered a significant offer from an NBA team.

Black went for 12 points (4-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-6 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 38 minutes in a 96-83 loss to the Kings on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Black drew the start at center with Clint Capela sitting for rest in the regular-season finale. The fourth-year big man responded with his second double-double of the season and best scoring total since Jan. 10. Black has proven capable of providing some scoring and rebounding punch off the bench during his career, but Nene Hilario has been the preferred first option off the bench behind Capela for head coach Mike D'Antoni for the majority of the season whenever he's been healthy. Black should have a role in the postseason rotation, but he's unlikely to see more than the 10.5 minutes per game he averaged this season unless there's an injury in front of him.

Black will start at center for Wednesday's regular-season finale against the Kings, Rockets play-by-play announcer Craig Ackerman reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Rockets are holding out more than half their roster for rest ahead of the playoffs, which includes both Clint Capela (hand) and Nene Hilario (rest). As a result, Black gets the call with the top unit at center and should get all the minutes he can handle with only a few bodies available. Black has logged 20 minutes or more just three times this season, but he should be able to blow that out of the water in Wednesday's finale.

Black is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Thunder due to lower back stiffness.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear exactly when Black suffered the injury, as he managed to play 15 minutes off the bench in Thursday's win over the Trail Blazers. The Rockets, however, have elected to be fairly cautious as of late given that they have already locked up the No. 1 overall seed in the West. Expect an official update on Black following the team's shootaround Saturday morning.
