30 days / 30 teams: Brooklyn networks

It is a game of common forecasts of the season between analysis and projections without a guarantee. A year ago, we were planning Brooklyn as the worst team team for the 2024/25 season.

Failed, because the networks left five teams behind them at the balance sheets, after a surprising start of the season. We need to believe that we have not heard the lesson, because we set its franchise in New York again as a sauca for the next exercise. Maybe even more than last season, there are many reasons to consider that Brooklyn squats the depth classification.

Once again, the networks leave a largest white page. Of the 24 players spent under the black-white tunic last season, only ten is still in Brooklyn, and only one hand should be enough to count that they counted they were brought to have responsibilities. Franchise leaders continue their search for identity and players around which they deal with “large three” Irelves – hardened – Durant.

After Mikal Bridges or Dennis Schroder, that’s the turn Cam Johnson To send somewhere else, direction of Nuggets. A new man was called invited Michael Porter JrWhich will live your first NBA experience away from Denver and with increased responsibilities.

In 27, “MPJ” will be one of the “Veterans” of the Workforce, are subject to a new intensive equal trace during the out-season. The networks will count The first five choices of the last draft in their workforce, three of which water with Habs Nolan Traore, And SAF IT Egor DeminHigher selected, at 8th line. The bet is intriguing and terribly risky in a position in which the experience is often key. This talent package is like the entire workforce, which is very difficult to see where it moves, if not a test season in which they will be placed on the test, to see if they can or do not make a future team frame.

The best marker last year, Cam Thomas, is the best evidence with a discount contract that was signed through “Qualifications Offer” It is better to be free in the year And show up by then. So, there will be few, or even any guarantees in Brooklyn, but a lot of work in perspective for coach Jordi Fernandez.

Summer movements

Arrivals: Kobe Bufkin, Egor Demin (Draft), Haivood Highsmith, EJ Liddell (two-way), Terance Mann, Michael Porter Jr, Drake Power, Ben Saraf (Draft), Nolan Traore (Draft), Danny Wolf (Draft)

Departures: Tsan Evboomvan, Cam Johnson, Keon Johnson, D’Angelo Russell, Trendon Watford

Player companion: Michael Porter Jr

After seven years and six sets in rocks, it’s time for a new beginning for Michael Porter Jr. “MPJ” exits the frustrating season, properly properly, but without the expected influence of the actual third thief in the title team. He hugged his teeth in playoffs with his shoulder shoulder, but his production was drastically fell, the last drop of water into a sinusoidal course with denver.

Here he is in Brooklyn in lead now, The role he never took off Until then in career. The opportunity is perfect for getting rid of yourself in a team where it will have more balloons and shoot from shooting than in Nuggets. “Forward” remains a very good shooter, systematically above 39% 3 points when it is healthy.

Can it be more and imposed yourself as a real offensive boss? If Cam Thomas was still supposed to start for the act of the best network marker, the NBA 2023 champion. It can be established as a main danger, as long as it gives them funds. Several opportunities to show it in his career was not honestly: 15.9 points in 44% when Nikola Jokic – and his creation – absent without Jamala Murray without running on the ceiling (18.7 points to the ceiling (18.7 points to 49.3%).

It will also be asked to show an example in a very young team who will be a player with the most NBA Senior. Michael Porter Jr will need to do the minimum defense, where he fought last season. Especially since he can play part of his individual future, he has only two years on his XXL contract and that he will not be able to find himself without showing serious progress. The opportunity to revive and invent himself is huge.

Average age: 23.7 years

Payment list: $ 141.5 million (30.)

Ideal scenario

With as many young shootings in the workforce as possible, the network must primarily think about its construction as a result. If they succeed in finding DNA that could suit current workforce parts, then the season will already be successful. Jordi Fernandez finds the balance in his census, especially how to distribute the minutes between all fresh composed players.

You probably won’t have to expect regularity in Brooklyn. Envy and fight will already be a good start. A little more “fun” game also in attack, after the very average season on this side of the Prosecutor’s Office (29. in points rated by the game, 28. offensive marks, 27. pace) for the first exercise of Jordi Fernandez on the bench. The operation of the “carpet” on the hope that it will end at the altitudes of the next draft look completely logical, even if it is never a guarantee for a very high choice.

The worst scenario

Last season, we wrote that the networks will go “especially strive to avoid heavy blows for several players who could be the basis of the following seasons.” Or that they had to “avoid the trap of the season that does nothing more with such a young working force, which must continue to progress and oppose the identity”. Observation is identical to a year later, with a slightly more renewed workforce and where players could walk on their feet … and therefore make a tread.

The situation around Cam Thomas, she kept a year, but who did not go on time in Brooklyn’s plans, it should not lead the atmosphere around the team.

Nic ClaxtonThe second news of the beginning of the decade in Brooklyn could also not make old bones in the center of Barclays, remains to put it a little more than last season where he experienced real regression when he had just extended. And once again, a possible unsuccessful season will be partially dependent on the future lottery, if Brooklyn could not win one of the largest fish from the draft 2026 Cuvee.
