By sending Mikal Bridges, their best player, to New York against Bojan Bogdanovic and a slew of Draft rounds, and after a disappointing season, the Nets made a strong choice: to shoot themselves in the foot with their competitiveness at short term. We are therefore heading towards a full reconstruction, with Jordi Fernandez at the helm.
A trend confirmed by information from HoopsHype since our colleagues announce that the other veterans of the team are all likely to be traded. So they are Cam Johnson, Dorian Finney-Smith, Dennis Schroder, Ben Simmons, Day'Ron Sharpe and even the latest arrival, Bojan Bogdanovic.
This multitude of players could allow managers to recover even more Draft choices for the years to come, in particular by letting go of those who are at the end of their contract: Ben Simmons, Dennis Schroder (who nevertheless hopes to stay in Brooklyn) and Bojan Bogdanovic, who will receive respectively 40, 13 and 19 million dollars in the 2024/25 financial year, before being free.
As for Day'Ron Sharpe, HoopsHype specifies that the Nets pivot is of interest to teams, notably the Grizzlies. And if Ben Simmons, with his physical fragility can worry and curb the desires of some, we can easily imagine that Cam Johnson, Dorian Finney-Smith or Dennis Schroder will be targeted by some franchises.
