  Gilyard is listed as probable for Wednesday's game versus the Raptors due to a left hip contusion, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports. The two-way guard will be back with Brooklyn for the final three games of the NBA season after he most recently suited up for the G League's Long Island Nets during their playoff run. Assuming he's available to play Wednesday, Gilyard will provide depth to the backcourt.

  Gilyard and the Nets agreed to a two-way contract Friday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports. Gilyard made 37 appearances for the Grizzlies this season before the franchise let him go last week. He averaged 4.7 points, 3.5 assists, 1.4 three-pointers and 1.2 rebounds in 17.7 minutes per game for Memphis. Though he'll link up with Brooklyn on a two-way deal, Gilyard is unlikely to see as ample playing time with the Nets as he had with the Grizzlies.

• Jacob Gilyard: Cut by Memphis

  The Grizzlies waived Gilyard on Saturday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. Gilyard had been one of the Grizzlies' two-way players, but because he's already been active for 48 games this season, he was eligible to appear in just two more contests for Memphis. Rather than keeping Gilyard on the roster with limited availability over the final month and a half, the Grizzlies elected to convert 10-day signee Jordan Goodwin to a two-way deal. The Grizzlies could look to bring Gilyard back on a 10-day deal once he clears waivers, though the team still has a need for another healthy body in the frontcourt with two-way player Trey Jemison facing similar limitations with his availability down the stretch. Gilyard appeared in 37 games (14 starts) for Memphis this season, averaging 4.7 points, 3.5 assists, 1.4 three-pointers, 1.2 rebounds and 0.7 steals in 17.7 minutes per contest.
