Jeff Peterson: ‘You have to be prepared’ on Draft Night ... even without picks
In the second episode of Chris Carrino’s “Voice of the Nets” podcast, Nets assistant GM Jeff Peterson says that even though Brooklyn currently has no picks, either firsts or seconds, in the NBA Draft June 23, they have to be prepared because “we could get a call from a team that wants to trade us the 15th pick.”
More likely, Peterson said, the Nets will wind up signing undrafted free agents in hopes of finding a gem like other undrafted stars like Fred VanVleet or solid rotation players like Wesley Matthews, Max Strus or Gabe Vincent, players who “could truly alter the trajectory of the franchise in a positive way.”
