The Brooklyn Nets announced their 2013 Orlando Summer League roster, which includes Tornike Shengelia and Tyshawn Taylor, along with Damion James, who signed a 10-day contract with the Nets last season, and rookie Mason Plumlee.
Also on the roster is David Lighty, out of Ohio State, and Chris Wright, who played for Georgetown. Interestingly enough, C.J. Watson's brother Kashif Watson will play for the team. Watson just recently inked a two-year deal with the Indiana Pacers, leaving the Nets.
As expected, Jason Kidd will coach the team along with his newly hired staff of assistants.
