Jared Dudley ... more than just a player for Nets

The Brooklyn Nets are the ninth youngest team in the NBA, on average age 25.78 years. With such a young roster, you have to expect the team to hit road bumps and careen around learning curves throughout the 2018-19 season.

That’s where Jared Dudley, the team’s oldest (33) and most experienced (13 years) Jared Dudley steps in and who understands, after playing for six teams, how to get the most out of young players ... and what the key ingredient is for success.

“For an inexperienced team, confidence is crucial so the more wins you get, the more confident you get in your craft and what the coaches are talking about and what roles on the team are,” Dudley said in one of his recent comments to reporters.
