Things are heating up.
We are 12 days away from the NBA Draft --and the first FIBA game for a Nets player. Bojan Bogdanovic will play a "friendly" game with Team Croatia the afternoon of the draft. Wayne Ellington still hasn't decided on his player option, which he must do in the next 18 days. The Nets have to inform Jarrett Jack if they're going to keep him next year --at a cost of $5.8 million in salary cap space-- in 19 days. That means free agency starts in three weeks from yesterday.
One negative: Juan Pablo Vaulet, who was expected to play in the FIBA South American championships, opted out of training for that competition.
