The first two games of the Brooklyn Nets first road trip into the Western Conference are doubling as old home week. On Tuesday, Jared Dudley returned to Phoenix for the first time since being traded to the Nets by the Suns and now Friday, Kenneth Faried is back in Denver.
Faried is back in the Mile High City with the Nets, his first visit to Pepsi Center since the Nuggets traded him to Brooklyn in July as part of a salary dump deal that also netted Darrell Arthur and Denver’s 2019 first-round pick if it’s not in the top 12 selections in exchange for Isaiah Whitehead.
