Brooklyn Nets: 3 stars to target in the trade market

Exploring three stars that the Brooklyn Nets can target as their third piece next to Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving.

After signing Kevin Durant (via sign-and-trade) and Kyrie Irving during the summer, many were quick to crown the Brooklyn Nets as the big winners of the 2019 NBA offseason. However, almost a year after the big acquisitions, the Nets are still sitting in the same spot as they were last summer – full of expectations and possibilities, but no real returns.

That can all change at the start of next season when Kyrie and Durant are expected to both be back from injuries. Even as the Nets stole headlines during the 2019 offseason, it was always about the 2020-21 season for Brooklyn.

Interestingly, the Nets might not be finished in shaping this roster. According to a recent report, the Nets could target a third star this summer by dangling some of their young players and future assets.

If the Nets are looking for a third piece to stick next to Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant, the possibilities are limitless. Here are three potential “star” players that the Nets could target as their third piece in their road to a championship.
