After trading away sharpshooter Bojan Bogdanovic at the trade deadline, the Brooklyn Nets now own two first-round draft picks in the 2017 NBA Draft. They will have plenty of options at the power forward position when deciding which young talent fits their culture.
On June 22, the Brooklyn Nets will have the chance to bring in young talent they feel fits their team and can bring more excitement to the team. With plenty of names to choose from in the late stages of the round, the Nets have many options due to just how deep this year’s draft is.
The Nets may miss out on guards like Lonzo Ball and Markelle Fultz, but they may be able to find big men who fit their current needs and that they can mold and develop for years to come.
With many guards and swingmen projected to go in the early stages of the first round, the Nets can improve their front court and add some much-needed defenders and rebounders to their roster.
Here are the top five power forwards the Brooklyn Nets could target with their two draft picks come this summer.
