If I had to select one player, he would be Hansen, the Chinese centre.
If not, one of these three:
Kon Knueppel
Kasparas Jakucionis
Egor Demin
But I would trade one pick to get Cam Johnson and another pick to get an expiring contract or something like that so we create some space for next summer.
My concern is that Brooklyn will want mulitple first round picks for him.
Cam probably won't ever make an all-star team.
I would like to see us give Dyson Daniels, Zacch, and Vit more shot attempts.
These players averaged double digits attempts:Trae Young
Jalen Johnson
Dyson Daniels
Caris LeVert
Zaccharie Risacher
Close to double digit attempts:Georges Niang 9.7
OO 9.2
We won't win with this many shot attempts going around. Caris Levert is a non concern because I don't expect him to stay.
For what was published, the Nets just wanted a pick and a player with salary to dump. I understand Cam Johnson does not fit the idea of Jordi Fernández for a PF in the NBA, or that of Sean Marks. Indeed he is a little far from what the perfect PF should be. But if you can afford him and give him a bench role, then that is another question. Cam Johnson is te kind of player that elevates your chances when you use your bench and the quality of the players there is above average.
On the other hand, I expect LeVert to sing the first day of FA on July, 1st.
I agree, Cam would be very valuable off our bench, and Quin can play with rotations. Cam, Zacch, and Jalen Johnson on the court together intrigues me as long as Jalen Johnson is at PF.
Do you expect Levert to sign with us day one of free agency or another team?
