Just a few seasons ago, the Brooklyn Nets were a playoff contender in the East. Fast forward to the 2024-25 season and Brooklyn is lacking the star talent they once had. The Nets had Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Kyrie Irving on the same team. Now, the biggest star on their team is Ben Simmons.
Three games into the 2024-25 season the Nets are 1-2. They are coming off a 115-102 win vs. the Bucks at home on Sunday. One player who’s started the season strong for Brooklyn is PG Dennis Schroder. His (20.7) points per game is a career-high and the 31-year-old is looking to keep the momentum going. NBA insider Evan Sidery mentioned how Schroder could be a trade piece for the Nets later in the season.

However, the Raptors made a trade with the Nets at the deadline last season and sent Schroder to Brooklyn. In return, the Nets sent the Toronto Spencer Dinwiddie.
