BROOKLYN, N.Y. — When Kenny Atkinson was asked about Jahlil Okafor and Nik Stauskas playing Tuesday night against the Wizards, the Nets head coach was non-committal.
“Never say never,” said Atkinson.
He went on to explain how he would like the two new players to understand the plays and defense before throwing them out there.
“It’s not etched in stone, but I do think there’s a plan in place. I do think we want to put them in a good position to succeed and help our team, and make sure when I call a play – they know what the heck we’re doing.
