Rotoworld Player News

Nolan Traore

BKN Guard #10

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Nolan Traoré finished Monday’s exhibition against the Wizards with 17 points (6-of-8 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), one rebound, two assists and two three-pointers.

The Nets are once again without Mikel Brown Jr., and his absence has given Traoré more minutes. After an underwhelming rookie campaign, Traoré needs a strong preseason to earn more minutes, especially with Egor Dëmin on track to start at point guard. While he played well against the Wizards, Traoré is still in a position where he should only be rostered in dynasty leagues.
Michael Porter

BKN Forward #17

Michael Porter Jr. amassed 22 points (8-of-13 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), four rebounds, two steals, one block and two three-pointers in Monday’s exhibition against the Wizards.

Back in the lineup after sitting out Thursday’s exhibition win over the 76ers with a minor wrist injury, Porter looked sharp in the nation’s capital. His first season with the Nets went well individually, with MPJ providing solid middle-round value when available. If injuries aren’t an issue, Porter should produce similarly this season, especially with Julius Randle joining him to share the scoring workload.
Mikel Brown Jr.

BKN Guard

Mikel Brown Jr. (wrist) is expected to make his preseason debut against the Heat on Wednesday.

Brown practiced fully over the weekend and participated in 5-on-5 on Monday morning. However, he’ll miss their preseason matchup with the Wizards on Monday night. He should be ready to go on opening night, as long as there aren’t any setbacks following his preseason debut on Wednesday.
Moritz Wagner

BKN Forward-Center #13

Moritz Wagner finished Thursday’s exhibition against the 76ers with six points (2-of-3 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, one assist and four steals.

The Nets didn’t have Day’Ron Sharpe for Thursday’s exhibition, so Wagner moved into the starting lineup after coming off the bench on Tuesday. The veteran forward/center logged 18 minutes, though foul trouble limited his time on the floor. A healthy Sharpe makes Wagner a non-factor in most fantasy leagues, but he’s likely to be worth streaming at times.
Julius Randle

BKN Forward-Center #30

Julius Randle notched 14 points (4-of-11 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), six rebounds, two assists and two steals in Thursday’s exhibition against the 76ers.

After putting up 13 points in Tuesday’s rout of the Hornets, Randle put on a decent showing for the home folks in his first home game as a Net. The move to Brooklyn put the veteran forward on a team unlikely to contend, but it’s a good spot for him to get his numbers. The concern for scorers like Randle in situations like this is that efficiency could suffer. Hopefully, that won’t be the case for him.
Egor Dëmin

BKN Guard #8

Egor Dëmin tallied 13 points (5-of-13 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), one rebound, five assists and one three-pointer in Thursday’s exhibition against the 76ers.

Dëmin said during the offseason that he hopes to have the ball in his hands more this season, and he’s started at point guard in both of Brooklyn’s preseason games. Through two games, the second-year guard has totaled 10 assists and three turnovers. Adding Julius Randle (14 points, six rebounds, two assists, and two steals) to the rotation should help Dëmin as a playmaker and raise his fantasy ceiling. His ADP of 118 makes sense, but don’t be surprised if it creeps up some between now and the start of the regular season.
Michael Porter

BKN Forward #17

Michael Porter Jr. (wrist), Day’Ron Sharpe (shoulder), Mikel Brown Jr. (ankle) and Joshua Jefferson (back) will all be sidelined against the 76ers on Thursday.

MPJ and Sharpe both played in the preseason opener on Tuesday, so it’s unlikely these injuries are severe enough to impact their status for the start of the regular season. As for Brown and Jefferson, neither rookie played in the preseason opener, with their next chance to debut coming on Monday in Washington.
Julius Randle

BKN Forward-Center #30

Julius Randle had 13 points (4-of-7 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), two rebounds, three assists, one steal and two three-pointers in Tuesday’s exhibition against the Hornets.

Entering his 13th year in the NBA, the Nets will be Randle’s fifth team. Playing alongside Michael Porter Jr. for the first time, Randle helped lead the Nets to a 124-90 victory over the Hornets. He had 13 points, three assists and two threes in 18 minutes. Randle is coming off the board in the fifth round of fantasy drafts.
Michael Porter

BKN Forward #17

Michael Porter Jr. had 16 points (6-of-9 FGs), five rebounds, two assists, one steal and four three-pointers in Tuesday’s exhibition against the Hornets.

Playing alongside Julius Randle for the first time, Porter was excellent as he led the Nets with 16 points and four threes in 17 minutes in the 124-90 victory over the Hornets. Randle had 13 points, two threes and three assists in 18 minutes. Porter is coming off the board in the middle rounds of fantasy drafts.
Mikel Brown Jr.

BKN Guard

Nets reporter Erik Slater reports that Mikel Brown Jr. is doing non-contact work at practice while recovering from an ankle injury.

Brown Jr. sustained the injury within the last three weeks, and he’s limited at the start of Nets’ training camp. There are no indications that he’ll miss any time to start the regular season, but fantasy managers should still keep an eye on his status moving forward.
