Brooklyn finally completed its roster, bringing back Grant Nelson. 

The Nets signed the 24-year-old Nelson to the last of its three two-way spots. 

The 7-footer played last season in both Brooklyn and G-League affiliate Long Island, and rounds out the roster for this upcoming campaign. 

The move was first reported by HoopsHype and confirmed by The Post.

Nelson joins rookie second-round pick Tyler Bilodeau and second-year pro Chaney Johnson — who excelled in Las Vegas Summer League — as the two-ways. 

The Nets also have 15 players on standard deals.

Nelson logged just four appearances for Brooklyn last season after joining the team on an Exhibit 10 deal.

He’d played 23 times for Long Island, averaging 11.1 points and 5.9 boards on 54.9 percent shooting to earn his call-up. 

His season was eventually cut short by patellar tendinitis, and he did not play in Summer League, though he did accompany the Nets to Las Vegas and continue to rehab.

Undrafted in 2025, the former Alabama Crimson Tide standout averaged nearly 12 points per game while in the SEC and previously earned first team All-Summit League honors while at North Dakota State, where he played his first three college seasons.
