Mitch Creek: Continuing career in Australia
Creek signed a contract Monday with the South East Melbourne Phoenix of the Australian National Basketball League.
Creek made his NBA debut in 2018-19, appearing in five games with the Nets and Timberwolves. Minnesota retained his rights heading into the summer, but the 27-year-old became an unrestricted free agent after the Timberwolves declined to tender him a qualifying offer ahead of the June 30 deadline. The swingman likely wasn't able to secure any contract offers from NBA teams with meaningful guaranteed money attached, so he'll head back to home country of Australia to continue his career.

Nets' Mitch Creek: Shifts to G League affiliate
Creek was assigned to the G League's Long Island Nets on Wednesday.

Creek, who is playing on a second 10-day deal with the Nets, is averaging 3.8 points, 2.5 boards and 1.3 assists in 9.0 minutes per game over four appearances with Brooklyn.

Nets' Mitch Creek: Covers 45 minutes at two levels
Creek played 15 minutes off the bench and contributed eight points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds and four assists Monday in the Nets' 113-94 loss to the Bucks.
Creek, Dzanan Musa and Alan Williams all pulled double duty Monday, as the trio started in the G League Long Island Nets' loss earlier in the day to the Fort Wayne Mad Ants before joining the parent club ahead of the night game. In total, Creek logged 45 minutes between the two stops and turned in quality showings in both outings. Creek is expected to stick around with Brooklyn for the next week and a half while he plays out his second 10-day deal.

Nets' Mitch Creek: Summoned from G League
Creek was recalled from the G League on Monday, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Creek, who recently signed a second 10-day contract with the Nets, will rejoin the team ahead of Monday's matchup with the Bucks in order to provide additional depth. The 26-year-old appeared in just two games for Brooklyn during his previous 10-day deal, so he doesn't figure to play a huge role for the Nets as he plays out his second contract.
