We all know what Julius Randle can do on the basketball court, Michael Porter Jr. as well for that matter.

tonight was supposed to be the unveiling of improved young talent guided by experienced veterans. Instead it was a brutal start to the season for Egor Dëmin and Nolan Traore that at least for this night only further push the fanbase in a concerned direction.

110-103 final and a tight box score doesn’t fully display the areas that need critical improvement: rebounding, fouling, turnovers.

Just 1 of 82 but one the Nets will look to forget.

The Nets Free Agency didn’t kick off with a “sexy” super star swing, but it still answered a question for this roster. With a core of young Guards, including recently drafted Mikel Brown Jr. there was a clear need for experience and defense in the back court. Keon Ellis checks both boxes, and on a 2/$18 deal keeps Brooklyn flush with cap space as the NBA landscape shifts.

The Brooklyn Nets are tipping off NBA Summer League, and it’s all about the rookies. In this episode, we preview the debut of Egor Dëmin, Nolan Traoré, Ben Saraf, and Danny Wolf. What should fans expect from this new wave of young talent? Adam break down each prospect’s game and what to watch for in Las Vegas!
