Brooklyn Nets: Looking at Possible Depth Charts for 2016-17
By Sandy Mui
With all that in mind, let’s put everything together:
Point Guard: Jeremy Lin, Greivis Vasquez, Isaiah Whitehead
Shooting Guard: *Bojan Bogdanovic, Sean Kilpatrick, Randy Foye, Joe Harris
Small Forward: Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, *Bojan Bogdanovic, Caris LeVert
Power Forward: Trevor Booker, *Chris McCullough, Luis Scola, Anthony Bennett
Center: Brook Lopez, Justin Hamilton, *Chris McCullough
*Denotes that player might be used at another position
It was actually much more difficult to create this depth chart than I thought. With all the swingmen on the Nets roster, it was confusing to figure out who should be placed as shooting guard versus small forward. I’m pretty satisfied with the outcome, but I worry for the Nets because of what they have available to work with.
As difficult as it was to break down the roster, just imagine what the season will be like. Kenny Atkinson will not have an easy time formalizing the lineups, and I can already picture him experimenting with different rotations throughout the season. We might never get to see just one, finalized set of rotations this season.
