NEWS:Brooklyn Nets waive four, cut roster down to 16 players!!!

The Brooklyn Nets announced that they have waived four players, cutting the roster down from 20 to 16. Those players are Beau Beech, Chase Budinger, Jorge Gutierrez and Egidijus Mockevicius. 

No real surprises here, as the Nets needed to cut five players before the start of the season, and none of the aforementioned players seemed to have factored into their future plans. 

Beech played in just 8 minutes through the first 5 preseason games. While he was certainly a fan favorite, he wasn’t able to crack the preseason rotation. Mockevici
us also played just 9 minutes of action, in one game.

Gutierrez played in three games, averaging just over 9 minutes per game, while Budinger played in four games, averaging 10.4 minutes per. 

The Nets now have to cut their roster down to 15 before the start of the season. They have one preseason game remaining, which is this Thursday, at home, against the New York Knicks.
