James Ennis: Continuing career overseas
Ennis agreed to a contract Tuesday with Russian club BC Samara, Alessandro Maggi of Sportando.com reports.
The 32-year-old journeyman forward was unlikely to land anything more than a training-camp deal had he elected to continue his career in North America, so he'll head overseas on what's presumably a more lucrative deal. Ennis appeared in seven games with the Nets, Nuggets and Clippers in 2021-22 over the course of three 10-day deals, averaging 4.1 points, 1.7 rebounds and 0.4 assists in 8.0 minutes per contest.

For the past month, Ennis has bounced between the Nets, Clippers and Nuggets on a series of 10-day deals, averaging 4.1 points and 1.7 rebounds in 8.0 minutes per game over his seven appearances across those three teams.

James Ennis: Expected to sign with Brooklyn
The Nets are planning to sign Ennis via hardship exemption, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
The Nets currently have seven players in the NBA's health and safety protocols and have an eighth player out in Joe Harris with an ankle injury. With so many players out, Brooklyn has been granted a hardship exemption to sign a player to its active roster, and they seem to be close to having a deal with Ennis. The 30-year-old forward played for Orlando last season, appearing in 41 games while averaging a career-best 8.4 points and four rebounds in 24 minutes per contest.

Magic's James Ennis: Could be done for season
Ennis (calf) may not play again this season, Roy Parry of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Ennis has already been ruled out of Wednesday's game against Boston, and coach Steve Clifford intimated that the wing -- as well as a few other injured Magic players -- may not return before the end of the regular season. "I don't even know what the time frame [is]," Clifford said. "If you look at the schedule now, it's seven games, I think it'd be 12 days, and I'm not sure even if any of those guys are that close, to be honest with you." Ennis was able to play in two games last week, but his calf injury has kept him out of eight of the last 10 contests, including Wednesday.
