Enters rotation, makes impact Edwards played 26 minutes in Saturday's 128-119 win over the Suns, finishing with 12 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal in 26 minutes.

Impact After having failed to get off the bench in either of the Kings' previous two contests, Edwards was a surprise entry into the rotation Saturday as a replacement for Terence Davis, who didn't see the floor in a coach's decision. The second-year forward was a plus-18 during his time on the court and played over struggling starter Keegan Murray (15 minutes) down the stretch. Though a 25-plus-minute role won't be guaranteed for Edwards moving forward, expect him to stick in the rotation for at least one more game after his strong showing Saturday.

Trade to Kings being finalized The Nets are finalizing a trade of Edwards and cash to the Kings on Tuesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Edwards still has to technically approve the trade, but that's expected to be the case. Ultimately, this is a salary and luxury tax saving measure by the Nets. According to Wojnarowski, the Kings are expected to give Edwards run in the G League with the Stockton Kings, though there's always a chance he's re-routed before Thursday's deadline. Edwards has played just 79 NBA minutes this season, totaling 15 points, 14 rebounds, three steals, two assists and one block.

Impact Edwards logged minutes for just the second time all season, both of which have come during garbage time. He's clearly not a regular in the Nets' rotation at this point and would likely require a host of injuries to sniff fantasy relevance on a given night.
