Prince entered the free agent market earlier this week after the Minnesota Timberwolves declined to guarantee his $7.4M contract for the 2023-2024 season. The 29-year-old averaged 9.1 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists with the Timberwolves last season. Prince spent two straight seasons in Minnesota where he played a key role off bench.
The No. 12 pick in the 2016 Draft, Prince spent the first three seasons of his career with the Atlanta Hawks. He had multiple stints with the Brooklyn Nets (2019-20, 2020-21) and played 29 games with Cleveland Cavaliers during 2020-21.
