When NBA.com’s Rookie Ladder comes out next week, ex-Net Yogi Ferrell will no doubt be on it. He’s played well enough to make it easily, considering how disappointing last year’s rookie class has been.
That presents a good news/bad news dichotomy for Nets fans. Bad news is that Dallas came in and scooped Ferrell up from the Long Island Nets after Brooklyn dumped him in favor of Spencer Dinwiddie. But there’s good news to be drawn from this as well. It means that the Nets scouting department did pretty well last June, taking Caris LeVert in the first round, Isaiah Whitehead in the second and signing Ferrell after he went undrafted.
