Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NBA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Nets fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
Brooklyn made a splash in the 2025 NBA Draft by taking five first-round picks, the most first-round picks ever taken in one Draft. It’s only been one season (and now our second Summer League) with these guys, and we’re trying to get a grasp on what the five got.
- Egor Dëmin is the star and leader among the five. No doubt.
- Nolan Traore was announced out for the summer after getting a scope on his knee.
- Drake Powell didn’t look comfortable at the California Classic.
- Ben Saraf showed flashes in California… but nothing more.
- Danny Wolf did not play in Cali.
We aren’t trying to
make Summer League sound like the NBA Playoffs. They aren’t. But the Nets have a chunk of players they selected together and one of them is consistently growing. What about the rest?
We’re asking who has the most to prove out of the five — this summer, training camp, and preseason. Leading up to Opening Night: Who has the most to prove to coach Jordi Fernandez?
