The Long Island Nets have struggled this season, now sitting at 2-11 after losses to the College Park Skyhawks and the Maine Celtics. Despite the Brooklyn Nets' limited activity due to the NBA Cup, the G League team has been in the spotlight.

Jacky Cui Yongxi had a standout performance with 14 points but may have sustained a leg injury. Tyrese Martin made an impressive debut with 18 points, while Jaylen Martin returned from injury contributing 10 points. However, the team will miss AJ Lawson, who signed with the Toronto Raptors.
