Blockbuster trade proposal sends Hornets' $203 million superstar to Nets

The Brooklyn Nets have made multiple assets available on the trade market, signaling their intent to go in a different direction as a franchise.

To help jumpstart their partial rebuild, the Nets could pursue a Charlotte Hornets superstar who would likely be open to a change of scenery.

“The Nets are 9-10 and looking like they’ve finally found some rhythm, riding a three-game win streak capped by a win over the Suns,” Fadeaway World’s Fran Leiva wrote Thursday.

“They’re in a funky spot—not fully rebuilding, but definitely not contenders yet. Coach Jordi Fernández has them playing hard despite injuries to key pieces like Cam Thomas and (Bojan) Bogdanovic.
