Prior to Thursday’s game vs. the Suns, Kenny Atkinson said things were “trending positive” on keeping Goodwin. The Nets called up Goodwin, 22, on March 15 from Greensboro where he played this season after being dropped by the Pelicans. He had played three years with the Suns, who drafted him in 2013, prior to this season.
