He is still riding the bench. Is he hurt?

Not to my knowledge. Just buried on the depth chart. They have a ton of guards and a couple of hybrid G/Fs. Lin, the PG, is hurt but they're looking to replace him on the free agent market I think. Whitehead just got shipped to G-League in Long Island which means SK's fine for now.
Congratulations to SK on becoming a father yesterday btw.Brent Wyrick

Nets fan hate this by the way. The comments on the Thank You tweet to Sean sent by Brooklyn were full of hate for the front office. He was well liked by the fanbase. I'm going to have to guess this was financial or there was a problem from the coach's end and not his his level of play. Doesn't make any sense otherwise.Brent Wyrick

Sean will be signed by the Milwaukee Bucks in an upcoming roster move.

SK is signing a 2-way contract - which essentially means he will split time between the NBA Bucks and the D-League, and while on the Bucks he is considered a 16th or 17th player (not really on the active roster). These contracts max out where they can only spend x number of games with the NBA team (something like 40 or 45) and the rest of the time they must be in the D-League. He will get paid different rates based on which team he is on at the moment, which basically means he will make between $75K-$300K, depending on how many games he is with the big team.
It's good for SK because he gets to stay in the league.
It's bad for SK (and any other player that signs a 2-way deal) because now he is locked with one team instead of being able ot be called up by any of the 30.
It's a gamble on his part...but he has had to do that his entire career so far.Comment

I believe you are correct - the Nets are still on the hook for this year's salary, unless the Bucks sign him to a big league deal, and add him to their 15-player roster

Signed for the rest of the year with the Bucks.
Sean Kilpatrick has played five games for the Bucks. The Milwaukee Bucks will sign guard Sean Kilpatrick for the rest of the season, converting his two-way contract into a full NBA deal, league sources told Yahoo Sports. Kilpatrick, 28, joined the Bucks on a two-way deal on Dec. 18 and has played a reserve role for the team.Comment
