The Brooklyn Nets worked out Darius Johnson-Odom and Jorge Gutierrez in the last week and may sign one of the two to fill their final roster spot, according to Marc Stein of ESPN.
Brooklyn Nets, I'm told, planning another 10-day signing soon after working out Jorge Gutierrez and Darius Johnson-Odom this week

Johnson-Odom, a 24-year-old guard, currently plays for the team’s D-League affiliate Springfield Armor, who acquired him from the available D-League player pool on January 3rd. He’s averaging 22.6 points, 6.0 assists, and 4.6 rebounds per game in 25 games since. The Nets also worked out Johnson-Odom at their 2012 draft combine, when Johnson-Odom was a prospect out of Marquette.
Gutierrez, a 25-year-old guard from Chihuahua, Mexico, was a Nets training camp invitee in October. He was cut as expected before the season began. He went to the Canton Charge of the D-League, where he’s averaged 13.9 points and 6.9 assists per game in 35 games. Like Johnson-Odom, Gutierrez was also involved in the team’s 2012 draft combine.
