The Nets’ trade of Mikal Bridges opens up opportunities for young players like Noah Clowney and Dariq Whitehead.
They have stockpiled draft picks with the hopes of hitting home runs in the years to come the traditional way.
A multi-talented 6-foot-9 forward out of Alabama, Clowney averaged 5.8 points, 3.5 rebounds and shot 36.4 percent from 3-point range in 23 games.He appeared in just two games with the Nets totaling 24 minutes. The highly regarded 6-foot-7 wing was coming off two surgeries on his troublesome right foot to repair a fifth metatarsal Jones fracture.
“Dariq should play in summer league, should be available in summer league. Whether or not he plays the entire summer league or not, that’ll be TBD,” general manager Sean Marks said in late April during the introductory press conference for new coach Jordi Fernandez. “But the plan right now is he’s in the gym every day.”
