Maker has agreed to a contract with Hapoel Jerusalem, EuroHoops.net reports.
EDGE Analysis
Since being drafted No. 10 overall in 2016, Maker appeared in 263 NBA games (65 starts) between Milwaukee, Detroit and Cleveland. He posted career averages of 4.6 points and 2.8 rebounds in 13.8 minutes. It's possible the 24-year-old eventually makes a return to NBA, but he'll be with Hapoel Jerusalem for the time being.

Maker was waived by the Cavaliers on Wednesday, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the Cavaliers bringing in Jarett Allen and Taurean Prince via trade, two players had to be waived. Maker and Yogi Ferrell are those two players. It's possible Maker gets picked up by another squad, but he's failed to make a significant impact so far in his career.

Maker played 10 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 100-90 loss to the Bucks, providing two points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and two rebounds.
EDGE Analysis
With the Cavaliers down seven players Saturday, Maker was thrust into the rotation out of necessity. He still struggled to find meaningful minutes against his former team, and he wasn't particularly productive in his time on the court. Through seven appearances this season, Maker is averaging 3.0 points and 2.3 rebounds in 9.6 minutes.

Maker will start Wednesday's preseason game against the Knicks, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old is competing for a spot on Cleveland's roster in training camp, and he'll join the starting five Wednesday with Kevin Love (calf), Cedi Osman (ankle), Larry Nance (jaw) and JaVale McGee (undisclosed) all sidelined. Maker averaged 4.7 points and 2.8 rebounds in 12.9 minutes for the Pistons during the 2019-20 season.

Maker agreed to a training camp contract with the Cavaliers on Saturday, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Pistons opted not to extend a qualifying offer to Maker this offseason, which made him an unrestricted free agent. He apparently didn't get any guaranteed contract offers, so he'll try to make the Cavaliers roster during camp.

The Pistons have opted not to extend a qualifying offer to Maker, making him an unrestricted free agent, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
As the Pistons continue their complete roster teardown, Maker is a causality, not being extended a qualifying offer. He hits free agency as a 23-year-old with four years of NBA experience. Last season with the Pistons, Maker averaged 4.7 points and 2.8 rebounds in 12.9 minutes. He's a stretch-five with some defensive upside.

Maker is in the starting lineup Wednesday at Philadelphia, Rod Beard of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old will enter the starting lineup in place of John Henson (ankle), who will be sidelined at least a week. Maker is averaging 8.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.2 blocks in 21.3 minutes across 13 starts entering Wednesday.

Maker tallied three points (1-5 FG, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, three steals, one block and one assist across 28 minutes Sunday in the Pistons' 96-84 loss to the Knicks.
EDGE Analysis
After being held to 12 minutes or fewer in each of the Pistons' previous five games, Maker picked up some extra run while starting center John Henson dealt with foul trouble. Maker was able to provide some quality defensive stats, but the poor shooting and lack of rebounds diminished some of his luster. He'll likely fade back into a more limited bench role in the Pistons' next contest Wednesday in Philadelphia.

Maker (ankle) compiled five points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 12 minutes during Wednesday's 114-107 loss to the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Maker (ankle) returned to the rotation following a one-game absence and managed a decent stat line considering his modest minute total. Nevertheless, after reaching double figures in scoring in four of five games between Feb. 7 and Feb. 20, Maker has combined for 11 points across his last four appearances and thus can likely be avoided across most fantasy formats.

Maker (ankle) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Thunder, Rod Beard of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
After missing Sunday's loss against the Kings due to a right ankle sprain, Maker looks to be trending in the right direction for Wednesday's contest against the Thunder. While the big man is listed as probable, make sure to keep an eye out on his status as tip-off approaches to ensure that he is in fact available.
