We are just one day away from the 2015 NBA Draft, which means we're just one day away from reaching an end to all the speculation surrounding the Brooklyn Nets' #29 and #41 picks. With that being said, here's everything Nets fans need to know heading into Thursday's draft showcase.
Team Unlikely To Deal Mason Plumlee If No Pick Recouped
The Brooklyn Nets are reportedly shopping big Mason Plumlee in hopes of moving up in Thursday's draft, and it doesn't appear that they'll be willing to budge on him unless there's some instant draft ramifications involved:
As for Mason Plumlee, word at this stage is that Nets unlikely to part with the young center unless deal can net pick in Thursday's lottery

ESPN reports that the Nets are looking for no less than a lottery pick for Plumlee who has two years and around $3.5 million left on his contract.
Who Are The Nets Targeting If They Move Up?
According to Tim Bontemps of the New York Post among other sources, the Nets are interested in one of the second tier of point guards who will likely find themselves slotted near the edge of the lottery if just outside of it.
There’s little doubt the Nets are interested in moving up from their No. 29 selection – the result of a pick swap with the Hawks from the trade that brought Joe Johnson to the Nets in 2012 – to get one of the mid-first-round point guard prospects: Cameron Payne, Jerian Grant and Delon Wright.
