Abrines signed a contract Tuesday with FC Barcelona, Varlas Nikos of Eurohoops.net reports.

EDGE Analysis

Abrines was waived by the Thunder in February after sitting out for a month and a half due to a personal matter. After taking some time off from professional basketball, Abrines will return back to his home country of Spain to play for Barcelona during the 2019-20 campaign.

Abrines revealed over the weekend that he expects to remain a free agent for the remainder of the season rather than signing with another NBA or European team, Antonis Stroggylakis of the Eurohoops.net reports.

EDGE Analysis

Abrines was waived by the Thunder on Feb. 8 after an unspecified personal matter had kept him away from the team for much of the month and a half prior to his dismissal. The Spaniard said he expects to make a statement regarding his situation in the near future, but it doesn't look like he'll pursue employment elsewhere until this summer. The 25-year-old 5.3 points, 1.4 rebounds and 1.3 triples in 16.0 minutes per game over 174 outings (16 starts) with Oklahoma City during the past there seasons.

Abrines has been waived by the Thunder, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Abrines had appeared in just two of the past 22 games for the Thunder, who cut ties with the third-year guard Saturday. Once Abrines clears waivers, he'll be free to sign with any team and may be pursued due to his floor-stretching ability. In 31 appearances this year, Abrines averaged 5.3 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.3 threes in 19.0 minutes while shooting an abysmal 35.7 percent from the floor in addition to splits of 32.2 percent from three and 92.3 percent from the line.

Abrines is unavailable for Saturday's game against Houston.

EDGE Analysis

Abrines is slated to miss his fourth straight contest due to a personal matter. His next chance to return will come Monday against Portland.

Abrines (personal) is listed as out for Thursday's game against the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

Abrines will miss his second game in a row due to the personal matter, which had previously kept him unavailable nearly all of January. There's a real possibility that Abrines' status could regularly be in limbo on a game-by-game basis for the rest of the season, so don't be surprised if the Thunder look to add another three-point specialist for the second unit prior to Thursday's trade deadline or via the buyout market.

Abrines (personal) was active for Tuesday's 132-122 win over the Magic, despite not being in the arena when the contest tipped off, Erik Horne of The Oklahoman reports.

EDGE Analysis

Abrines had previously been unavailable for the Thunder's final four games of December and most of January while tending to the undisclosed personal matter. After rejoining the team and getting in sufficient practice time, Abrines re-entered the rotation for games Jan. 29 and Feb. 1, but has since been withheld from action for the past two contests. It's beginning to look like recurring absences could be on the docket for Abrines throughout the remainder of the season.

Abrines (personal) played six minutes off the bench Tuesday in the Thunder's 126-117 win over the Magic, chipping in three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and one rebound.

EDGE Analysis

Abrines hadn't played since Dec. 23 while tending to a personal matter before coach Billy Donovan finally incorporated the third-year wing in the rotation Wednesday. Unsurprisingly, Abrines was eased back into the mix with a minor role, but he could recapture minutes in the teens in future contests. With averages of 5.5 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.4 triples in 19.3 minutes per game on the season, Abrines doesn't offer much value in fantasy settings as anything more than a three-point streamer.

Coach Billy Donovan said Abrines (personal) is "not in a position to play right now," ahead of Sunday's game against the Bucks, Brett Dawson of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Abrines was removed from the injury report and appeared on track for a return, but will apparently remain sidelined for the 17th straight game due to a personal issue. Donovan also said the 25-year-old will be active but won't take the court, according to Maddie Lee of The Oklahoman, which has been a recurring theme for his absences. Abrines remains without an official timetable for his return.

Abrines (personal) isn't listed on the Thunder's injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Bucks.

EDGE Analysis

Unless the Thunder suggest otherwise in the hours prior to the 6 p.m. EST tipoff, Abrines should be available to play for the first time Dec. 23. Prior to missing more than a month due to the personal matter, Abrines had averaged 5.6 points, 1.6 boards and 1.4 triples in 19.7 minutes per game across his 29 appearances.

Abrines is active but unlikely to play Thursday against the Pelicans, Brett Dawson of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

As was the case earlier in the week, Abrines is unlikely to rejoin the rotation Thursday despite being active. His next chance to return to action will come Sunday against the Bucks.
