With the NCAA tournament kicking off on Tuesday, it’s officially draft season for NBA teams out of the playoff picture. While the Brooklyn Nets won’t own their own draft pick, they’ll still have multiple selections in this years draft.
The Nets will likely have two picks in the top 40. Both come from their trade acquiring DeMarre Carroll, as Toronto dumped Carroll’s salary to clear cap space. They’ll have Toronto’s first-round pick–likely number 28. They’ll also have a second-round pick from either the Lakers or Magic–whichever falls later in the draft.
While this marks another disappointing year without the rights to their draft pick, the 2018 NBA Draft is supposed to be deep.
