Devils Lake’s Grant Nelson Signs with Brooklyn Nets

Alabama forward Grant Nelson, originally from Devils Lake, agreed to join the Brooklyn Nets as an undrafted rookie following the conclusion of the 2025 NBA Draft.
Nelson transferred from North Dakota State to Alabama in 2023 and became a key player during Alabama's first Final Four run and Elite Eight appearance under coach Nate Oats.
Last season, he posted averages of 11.5 points, 7.6 boards, and 1.2 blocks per game, securing the fifth spot in SEC rebounding while reaching double-digit scoring in 21 contests and gaining attention for his standout dunks.
According to reports, Nelson will vie for a two-way contract during the Nets' training camp, where he may join former Alabama teammate Noah Clowney.
Nelson's signing offers the Nets a skilled big man fitting their rebuilding roster, suggesting he may develop through a two-way contract to earn NBA playing time.
