Amida Brimah 7 foot center added to Summer League

I love how they're adding much needed size to the roster. This guy is a shot blocker that also runs the floor then you have Nic Claxton at 6'11. There's talks about the Nets adding DeAndre Jordan too that's another 7 footer! Sean Marks has done it again.

oh this dude is definitely going to be in the league sooner or later. He can block shots and run the floor, somebody will pick him up if we don't.

Claxton has nice upside but at 216 lbs he will most likely spend 2019-20 in the G League getting reps and working on his 3 point shot and gradually gaining strength and weight, and his skillset really tracks him as a PF in our system which is great, but a while off from now.

Brimah looks nice in those clips, but he would have to have an amazing showing in SL to even get a camp invite.

I would prefer that the Nets add veteran depth to the center position.

Undrafted free agent in what many consider to be a weak draft. It's the same reason why I wasn't absolutely ecstatic with Claxton and Hands though I did like the Claxton pick.

I'm all for development but if we are bringing in top 20 level free agents we need to have veterans manning the ship at positions of need.
