Rare appearance Friday
Etienne ended Friday's 125-107 loss to the Pistons with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) over five minutes.
ANALYSIS
Etienne appeared for just the second time this season, both of which have come during garbage time. Although Brooklyn is likely going to shuffle its rotation on a nightly basis, it doesn't appear as though Ettiene is going to be given any sort of meaningful role, at least not for the time being.

Back with Nets via two-way contract
The Nets re-signed Etienne to a two-way contract on July 3.
ANALYSIS
Etienne is all set to return to the Nets for his second season. The 25-year-old gives Brooklyn an option as backcourt depth, although it wasn't until March 28 of last year that he got the chance to make his NBA debut. Etienne averaged 7.9 points, 1.7 assists, 1.3 rebounds and 1.9 three-pointers in 21.6 minutes per game over his seven appearances for Brooklyn, but he played 32 contests for the G League's Long Island Nets a year ago.

Sees 17 minutes in finale
Etienne had five points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and one assist in 17 minutes during Sunday's 113-105 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Making just his seventh appearance of the regular season, Etienne went out with a muted performance in the loss. Etienne will enter the offseason as a free agent with his two-way contract with Brooklyn expiring.

Logs career-high 25 minutes
Etienne had five points (2-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt), two rebounds, five assists and two steals over 25 minutes during Thursday's 105-90 loss to the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
The Nets continue to roll with an anonymous lineup, affording Etienne a career-high 25 minutes. Playing in just the second game of his career, Etienne flashed some upside on the defensive end. There are no guarantees when it comes to the Nets' rotation, especially for someone like Etienne who is currently on a 10-day contract.

Inks pact with Brooklyn
The Nets signed Etienne to a two-way deal Tuesday, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.
ANALYSIS
The New York native will join the Nets on a two-way pact in the midst of a fairly successful season in the G League. Etienne has averaged 16.9 points, 3.7 assists, 3.2 rebounds, 2.8 three-pointers and 1.3 steals across 34.1 minutes per contest in 40 G League outings with the Long Island Nets. The 25-year-old combo guard has also shot 46.3 percent from the field and an impressive 41.9 percent from beyond the arc. Etienne will likely struggle to carve out a significant role with the parent club, as he'll have to compete for playing time in the second unit with Keon Johnson, Tyrese Martin and Reece Beekman.

Waived by Brooklyn
Etienne was waived by the Nets on Wednesday, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS

Inks deal with Brooklyn
The Nets signed Etienne on Tuesday, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Etienne likely signed an Exhibit 10 contract, so he'll get to participate in training camp before presumably joining Brooklyn's G League affiliate, the Long Island Nets. Etienne has yet to make his NBA regular-season debut.

Let go by Hawks
The Hawks waived Etienne on Sunday, Pat Benson of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Etienne tried to compete for a spot in the Opening Night roster, but that was always going to be complicated, and in the end, he is now a free agent and needs to decide where he'll continue his career. Having said that, Etienne is likely to stay with the organization but as a member of their G-League affiliate, the College Park Skyhawks.
