The Brooklyn Nets, currently struggling with a 13-23 record and sitting 12th in the Eastern Conference, are focused on the future despite their playoff hopes fading. With key players Cam Thomas and Cam Johnson sidelined, General Manager Sean Marks is eyeing a potential blockbuster move to acquire a superstar. While the Nets haven't identified a specific target or timeline, Marks emphasizes the importance of being strategically positioned for such an opportunity.
The team has been linked to numerous big names in recent months, including Donovan Mitchell, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Jimmy Butler. The Nets' recent trades, including the Mikal Bridges deal, have prioritized accumulating draft capital, which Marks suggests can be used to facilitate a major move.
