The Brooklyn Nets will not exercise their club option on Garrett Temple for the 2020-21 season, sources told Yahoo Sports' Chris Haynes.
The 34-year-old combo guard was due to make $5 million.
Owing in part to the injury-related absence of Kyrie Irving for much of the season, Temple enjoyed a career year in 2019-20. He recorded 10.3 points and 3.5 rebounds in 27.9 minutes per game - all career highs - to go along with 2.5 assists and one turnover per contest.
However, Temple also posted an effective field-goal rate of just 48.6%, his lowest mark on a season since 2015-16, and the Nets were outscored by 1.4 points per 100 possessions when he was on the court last year.
