With many Brooklyn Nets players not going to the NBA restart, they have brought in a key guard to replace the players. Three time NBA Sixth Man of the Year, Jamal Crawford, has signed a contract with the Brooklyn Nets for the remainder of the season.
Crawford last played for the Phoenix Suns in 2018-19 where he averaged around near 8 points per game, including scoring 50 points in his last recent game.
The Nets players who have opted out of the NBA restart due to COVID and injury concerns. Key players like Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, Spencer Dinwiddie, DeAndre Jordan, Wilson Chandler, and Taurean Prince. As many players will be gone, Crawford will get lots of minutes and provide a lot of scoring to the team.
My Thoughts
The Brooklyn Nets roster looks like a joke right now. With all of these players opting out of the NBA restart. The Nets will be bringing in a bunch of scrubs for their “playoff” run. The only good players they are bringing are Jarrett Allen, Jamal Crawford, and Caris Levert. Besides those three, the Nets look terrible. I honestly would not be surprised if they try and tank two possible get in the NBA Draft lottery. But I think that the Nets are way too far ahead of the Wizards to get a draft pick in the lottery.
I am glad to see Jamal Crawford on an NBA roster again. He is a great role player to have off your bench and can provide scoring when you let him do his thing. I could see him taking lots of shots in Brooklyn with lack of help, and to hopefully play well to get NBA teams to sign him in the offseason.
The Boston Celtics NEED to play the Brooklyn Nets in the playoffs. This would be a great first round matchup that could help them to a Championship run.
