Brooklyn Nets Rumors

Thomas expressed Monday that he feels he has proved himself of being a worthy component of future Brooklyn teams.

Finney-Smith is considered Brooklyn's "most likely veteran to be traded," Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Thomas is eligible for a rookie-scale extension and can sign a new deal with the Nets until Oct. 21, but he seems more likely to reach restricted free agency next summer instead, Brian Lewis of The New York Post reports. "I'm pretty sure my agent will have conversations with them, but I'm just worried about the season," Thomas said. "This is the opportunity I've been wanting since I got into the league: to play, be free, so I'm just gonna make the most of it, and whatever happens, happens."

Thomas is expected to have increased responsibilities in the playmaking department during the upcoming season, according to C.J. Holmes of The New York Daily News.

Claxton is expected to have increased responsibilities in the playmaking department during the upcoming season, according to C.J. Holmes of The New York Daily News.

Simmons is recovering from a back injury but is expected to be ready for training camp, according to Brian Lewis of The New York Post.

Thomas recently acknowledged he's looking to improve his overall play in the offseason after posting career-best numbers in 2023-24, he told Curtis Rowser III of SLAM. "Last summer, I tried to put more emphasis on catch-and-shoot shooting, and I think I was way up in the league percentage-wise on catch-and-shoot [this past season]. So, just continue to work on that and fine-tuning the skills I had coming into the league, like my off-the-dribble stuff and finishing around the basket, [while] still improving on catch-and-shoot, trying to have the best percentage in the league," Thomas said.

Whitehead will look to gain a more significant role with the Nets in 2024-25 if the opportunity arises due to the team's recent player movements, according to Adam Zagoria of NJ.com. "I look at it as an opportunity for me to get on the court and a bunch of other young guys to grow our games and develop into who we want to be in the NBA," Whitehead said. "And eventually be on their level, if not higher than where they were....and look it as an opportunity for us young guys."

Clowney could be in line for a bigger role in the 2024-25 season now that the Nets are set to enter a rebuilding process, according to Brian Lewis of The New York Post. "It's an opportunity for me so I can't waste it," Clowney said.

Schroder reiterated he's keen on staying with the Nets on a long-term basis instead of hitting the open market once again, according to German outlet Braunschweiger Zeitung. "Brooklyn is a really cool, great organization, quite family-oriented. I'd definitely like to stick around for the long haul. My agent and I feel like the Nets liked how I contributed. I've brought in more defense, teamwork and displayed leadership, but if someone as exceptional as Giannis Antetokounmpo or another superstar wants to join Brooklyn, the Nets could make deals to acquire that player ... and that's why nothing is certain in the NBA," Schroder said.
