DeMarre Carroll (Forward)
DeMarre Carroll had a career year in his first season as a Brooklyn Net. He set career highs and nearly doubled all of his stats from his 2016-17 showing with the Toronto Raptors. Carroll also played a huge role as a leader on a team filled with young players.
This offseason, there was a chance Carroll would be traded to free up cap space. As of now, Carroll will be a Brooklyn Net next season and should be. He is a great player to not only have on the court, but also in the locker room.
Carroll can play either small forward or a stretch 4 for Brooklyn. He shoots the ball from all areas of the court at a high level and can drive to the basket through traffic. He thrives in Atkinson’s small-ball offense and is a great player on the defensive end.
He is a good steal threat who can take charge on the defensive end. Carroll does a good job switching on the defensive end and guarding players bigger than him.
Carroll has a good chance of starting at either the 3 or at the 4. Despite his chances of starting, he can be a great weapon off the bench for Brooklyn.
