It’s hard to recall the last time Brooklyn Nets fans were so excited about Summer League. Makes sense, though. Egor Demin and Nolan Traore are the highest Nets draft picks of the Sean Marks era, Demin, the eighth pick being the franchise’s highest pick since 2010 when they were still in New Jersey and took Derrick Favors at No. 3.
And they’re are five of them!
Although Drake Powell is sitting out the Las Vegas 30-team tournament, the Nets will still have Demin and Traore as well as their two late firsts, Ben Saraf and Danny Wolf, on the squad as well as three players from last year’s Brooklyn and Long Island rosters: forward Tosan Evbuomwan, Tyson Etienne and Drew Timme.
