There’s always a lot of guesswork when trying to figure out who the Nets like in the draft. The Nets keep their workout schedules private, unlike under Billy King and Rod Thorn before him.
But sometimes things leak out, and we try to connect the dots. One thing we look for are multiple workouts or high level scouting trips. So when he saw reports this weekend that Sean Marks had changed the itinerary of his European scouting trip and decided to take in a French league game, we took notice. Particularly since the player he was reportedly looking at, French-Congolese combo guard Elie Okopo, had been invited to work out for the Nets last spring before dropping out of the Draft.
