The Nets acquired Okafor from the Detroit Pistons in exchange for DeAndre Jordan earlier this month. Playing 27 games as a member of the Pistons, Okafor averaged 13 minutes, scoring five points, two rebounds and one assist per game. The six-year veteran has also spent time as a member of the Philadelphia 76ers and New Orleans Pelicans.
Brooklyn should rely on a starting rotation consisting of James Harden, Kyrie Irving, Joe Harris, Kevin Durant and Blake Griffin, with Patty Mills, Bruce Brown and Nicolas Claxton seeing extended playing time off the bench.
