Brooklyn Nets: Stay patient with Dzanan Musa

The Brooklyn Nets knew they were taking on a long-term building project when they selected Bosnian guard Dzanan Musa with the 29th pick in the 2018 NBA Draft.

With the exceptions of Michael Porter of the Denver Nuggets and Zhaire Smith of the Philadelphia 76ers, both recovering from injuries that have sidelined them all season, no first-round pick from last year’s draft has played fewer minutes than Musa.

At least not at the NBA level.

Musa has played in just seven games with the Nets this season, totaling 26 minutes, He’s scored 12 points with three rebounds, an assist and two steals in those minutes, going 6-for-14 overall, missing all six of his 3-point attempts.
