The Brooklyn Nets are reported to have agreed to terms with free-agent guard Keon Ellis on a two-year, $18 million guaranteed contract, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania, as cited by multiple outlets. Ellis, 26, joins the Nets as a guard expected to add defensive pressure in the rotation and provide shooting from beyond the arc, along with some secondary ball-handling capabilities. The reports describe him as a point-of-attack defender who fits one of the team’s backcourt needs. The deal is characterized consistently across the sources as guaranteed, with the same length and total value: two seasons and $18 million. The signings are framed as part of Brooklyn’s offseason activity, with Ellis presented as the first major move mentioned by one outlet. No sources here provide additional details on contract structure beyond the reported guaranteed amount, nor do they include specific information about roster placement, immediate playing time, or competitive expectations beyond his skill set and role.
