Agendas and biases aside, how a front office can watch Jaylen Brown play basketball the last few years and still think he’s a negative asset based on analytics is crazy to me.

I get the money factors into it too but every team immediately gets better by adding him to a roster.

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

Philly ended Boston’s Tatum/Brown Celtics run in a game 7 and stole Jaylen Brown in the process…that’s pretty savage.

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

Who knew all the 76ers needed to do was fire Daryl Morey’s ass to create a superteam

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

Not the sexiest name in the world but….okay

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Free agent Moe Wagner has agreed to a two-year, $19 million deal with the Brooklyn Nets, sources tell ESPN. The deal contains a mutual option guaranteeing the $19M while allowing either side to opt-in (not opt-out) along with having a conversation about doing a new contract next summer.

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

@HenrySanchez I agree. It’ll be interesting to see how Jordi distributes minutes between MBJ, Traore, Powell and Ellis.

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

By itself, this move doesn’t move me much.

He’ll be a solid addition off the bench and he’s a tough two way guard, but this isn’t moving this team up ahead of any other team in the projected standings.

Let’s see what else Marks has cooking.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Free agent guard Keon Ellis has agreed to a two-year, $18 million guaranteed deal with the Brooklyn Nets, sources tell ESPN.

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

@ShamsCharania can you break some more deals? You got some pretty ancy fans waiting for updates!

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

Can we just acknowledge how crazy it is that KL chose the Clippers over Toronto however many years ago after a 🏆, had 0 playoff success, and is now returning to a place he never wanted to play in the 1st place?

Insanity.

[Evan Sidery @esidery]

Brandon Ingram will be included in the Raptors’ trade package for Kawhi Leonard as the headlining piece, per @WindhorstESPN.

The Clippers and Toronto have agreed on player details as they near a blockbuster deal at the start of the new league year today.

[NetsKingdom 👑🗽 @NetsKingdomAJ]

The Brooklyn Nets are interested in Mo Wagner.

“There were some fresh but loud signals Monday that Brooklyn has emerged as a real contender for Franz Wagner's older brother Moe.” - @TheSteinLine

Thoughts?

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

if this man just pretended shooting a free throw was the same as catching a 6 foot grouper…

[Legion Hoops @LegionHoops]

Ben Simmons on passing the wide open dunk that defined his career:

“I wasn’t hitting my sh*t…. I just gave the ball to somebody who was shooting a higher percentage at the time. How about (Matisse Thybulle) should’ve made the f***ing free throws? But he didn’t and it is what it is. That’s still my boy.”

[Erik Slater @ErikSlater_]

Mikel Brown Jr. on his vision for the Nets:

“I was talking to Julius Randle about it the other day and he told me, ‘We’re gonna shock the world.’ That’s what we plan on doing.”

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

Lakers fans I got good news and I got bad news

The good news is Austin Reaves & Deandre Ayton will still be in the team next year

The bad news is you’re losing Lebron James and Marcus Smart.

But it’s not all bad, you still have Jake Laravia.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Los Angeles Lakers center Deandre Ayton is opting into his $8.1 million player option for the 2026-27 season, sources tell ESPN.

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

Good signing by Nets. Minott showed a ton of promise in limited time with Brooklyn last season.

He can make 3s and has a decent solid dunk package.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Brooklyn Nets forward Josh Minott intends to sign a new two-year, $9 million to return to the franchise, with a team option in second season, sources tell ESPN. The Nets declined Minott’s team option to clear the way for a new contract.

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

🤮

[Hoop Central @TheHoopCentral]

REPORT: Tim Hardaway Jr. and Mike Conley are expected to be “priority targets” in free agency for the Miami Heat

(via @TheSteinLine / @JakeLFischer)

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

👀

[Fullcourtpass @Fullcourtpass]

The Nuggets have considered a “major roster shakeup” and are willing to listen to offers for anyone other than Nikola Jokic, per @MikeAScotto

(https://t.co/XP5pIFgKkd)

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

Agreed! One for all and all for one!

[The Brooklyn Way @Jersey2Brooklyn]

It's a different vibe in #NetsWorld. I've never felt the fanbase so hungry to win and so united.

I believe we're heading in the right direction. From the front office down to the fanbase, we're all ready to eat!

[Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis]

The #Nets extended Day’Ron’s option date by one day (now June 30), league sources told the Post. This gives the Brooklyn more optionality with his contract.

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

After the Cam Thomas experience, I’ll pass.

[Evan Sidery @esidery]

The Pelicans are shopping Jordan Poole’s $34 million expiring contract in trade talks.

New Orleans is targeting a win-now piece to bring aboard for new head coach Jamahl Mosley.

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

Saddest thing in life is Wasted Talent.

Don't think Morant's book in the NBA is finished though. Since he has a career resurgence coming elsewhere.

[Polymarket Hoops @PolymarketHoops]

The Memphis Grizzlies Front Office is struggling desperately to find a trade partner for Ja Morant, per @WindhorstESPN.

Ja Morant was the future face of the NBA at one point and has his own shoeline with Nike. This is just sad to see…

[Spenny & the Nets @spenharris]

Nets get Jokic next year and Jokic plays with a bunch of young upcoming dudes to extend his career?

👀

[Polymarket Hoops @PolymarketHoops]

WOAH: Nikola Jokic might not sign his contract extension with Denver this summer, which would open the possibility of him becoming a free agent in 2027, per @TheSteinLine & @JakeLFischer.
