[Scotto] … the Brooklyn Nets have chosen to pivot towards a rebuild, and other veterans, including Cam Johnson, Dorian Finney-Smith, Bojan Bogdanovic, Dennis Schroder, Ben Simmons, and backup center Day’Ron Sharpe, are all potential trade candidates to monitor, league sources told HoopsHype.



The Pelicans have several admirers of Claxton in their front office and are among the teams around the league wondering if the 25-year-old center could become available via a sign-and-trade, given Brooklyn’s rebuilding direction.

Claxton is expected to command $20-25 million annually in free agency.

  1. I wonder how much DFS would cost. Every contender should be after him.

  2. CoyotesSideEyes

    Zach Collins for Bojan? If you want Cooper Flagg, Zach is the perfect rim protector to make that happen.

  3. KuyaJohnny

    Sharpe is 22 y.o. lol he can be part of the rebuild

  4. novabull23

    Ben Simmons back to the sixers. Redemption Arc lol

    nvm he’s making 40 million. wow

  5. nailbiter111

    I would trade for Ben Simmons if I needed a paperweight.

  6. Role players! Get your fresh role players here!

  7. TatersTot

    Who’s the worst contract in the league the Nets could take on with Ben’s expiring?

  8. thegentlecactus

    So they will construct their future roster around Cam Thomas?

  9. Disastrous_Bluejay57

    Tons of great role players are now for sale. This should be interesting

  10. Cultural_Tank_6947

    I have a lightly used Andrew Wiggins for DFS & Schroeder. Give up a pick too.

  11. BruceBrownMVP

    We should be trading DFS, Bojan and Schroeder ASAP.

    But Claxton should be signed to a extension that progressively drops like CJ. We can then turn around and trade them in a year or two when the cap goes up and they have more value.

    (Plus I’m absolutely obsessed with the Clowney/Claxton frontcourt and want to give it a season)

  12. Major_Damage7207

    I feel like Mavs and Philly are gonna be heavy bidders for either Cam Johnson or DFS

  13. Illustrious_Way_5732

    Why would Sharpe be a trade candidate? He’s only 22 and has shown plenty of improvement and promise of last season alone. He’s perfect to be part of the rebuild

    If anything Clax should be the one that the nets are trying to ship out

  14. beefJeRKy-LB

    LMAO Schroeder left the tanking Raptors only to get to the tanking Nets.

  15. EnoughLawfulness3163

    They have a ton of solid role players contenders want. This was always the move

  16. That’s a pretty damn solid list of veterans to flip. Nets gonna be walking away from this off-season as big winners imo

  17. Imagine you are paying Ben Simmons 40M to do nothing.

  18. JohnFish2734

    Im surprised Sharpe is even on the table. Seems we could use him since Clax is most likely gone

  19. grimbly_jones

    > are all potential trade candidates

    > Ben Simmons

    lol

  20. snyder810

    Cam Thomas gonna be coming for Westbrook’s usage % record.

  21. RustCohlesLoneStar

    Ben Simmons you say? Sure I’ll take him if they attach, say seven first round picks to it. Thanks.

  22. Feel a little bad they’re pulling all these pieces away from Jordi.

  23. shahoftheworld

    Did he just refer to Sharpe as a veteran?

  24. petarisawesomeo

    Should just put a wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man out front

  25. I’d imagine Sharpe is their Claxton replacement tbh, he played really well when Claxton was out

  26. Have you ever shown up to a garage sale late in the afternoon after all the good stuff is sold?
