After the Brooklyn Nets voided his free-agent deal due to a failed physical, Hamady Ndiaye will most likely sign in the Chinese Basketball Association when his injury recovers to full strength, a source told RealGM.

Several Chinese teams have been in discussions with Ndiaye before and after his decision to join the Nets for training camp.

I've become convinced the nets really just want big bodies in camp, since they intend to severly limit KG/Lopez in the preseason. I really dont see these as guys they intend to dress during the year

The team still desperately needs legit help and depth at the 4/5. Brook Lopez is very injury prone and KG can not play more than 15 minutes. The status quo is not acceptable. Also, those 2 signees have been around the NBA and have yet to really make an impact anywhere after enough exposure.

Instead the team likely needs to target big men using KG and potentially Jack's "vet leadership" as trade chips. The question is what teams would want them and who has a plethora of bigs to unload?

Charlotte just drafted Volneh and already has Jefferson, Zeller and Marvin Williams who can play some stretch big. They may be willing to unload Biyambo if it means getting back Jack, a future pick or swap pick may need to be involved to sweeten it.

I'd consider moving Jack and the 2017 Boston 2nd rd pick FOR Biyambo and Neal.

Next, I'd target the Clippers. I can see KG wanting to reunite with Doc and the Clipps feeling he may give them the edge in a crowded west. Obviously such a move may not be able to occur until late December (FA restrictions), but Hawes/Barnes for KG + 2019 right to swap 1sts may get this done.

I can see a Hawes/Lopez tandem being similar to ZBO/Gasol...it has potential

You want to trade jack? there is no team in the league in more need of leadership then us. jack isnt a guy we can afford to lose. Also we have plumlee, mirza, and kirilenko. so we dont lack depth as much as you insinuated.

Spencer hawes is trash. and is nothing like zbo or gasol. a lopez/spencer front court would be all sorts of terrible
