Akinjo (wrist) put up six points (2-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, five assists and a steal across 29 minutes in Monday's 115-107 G League loss to the Long Island Nets.

Akinjo has been out for about three weeks due to a wrist injury but returned Monday and was able to play 29 minutes off the bench. While he did not shoot particularly well, missing all three of his attempts beyond the arc, he remained active as a rebounder and a playmaker and will eventually be able to shake off the rust.
