The Brooklyn Nets, led by general manager Sean Marks, made the unexpected decision to forgo any deals or last-minute sleight-of-hand moves in the run-up to the NBA draft. The Nets picked Noah Clowney from the University of Alabama as the 21st overall choice at the Barclays Center. Clowney adds defensive prowess, shot-blocking skills, and versatility to the team. He is 6′ 9″ tall with a 7’3″ wingspan. With the very next pick in the first round, the Nets continued their successful draft night by selecting Duke University’s Dariq Whitehead. Whitehead gives the club depth and versatility by contributing his agility, scoring prowess, and defensive toughness. The addition of these newly drafted talents undoubtedly strengthens the Net’s championship hopes.

Meanwhile, a 26-year-old Nets Star has his priorities sorted out; he has his eyes locked on his “twin”. After making his demands clear, he left the NBA world melting over a wholesome clip that went viral.

A 26-year-old Nets Star wants his twin on the team!

Now that the NBA draft is done, the Brooklyn Nets are now concentrating on free agency. Their top priority is to keep restricted free agent Cam Johnson on their roster, a sentiment strongly echoed by his “twin” and teammate, Mikal Bridges. As a restricted free agent, Johnson can negotiate with other teams, but the Nets have the right to match any offer sheet he receives. Bridges, who shares a strong bond with Johnson, referred to as “The Twins” during their time playing together in Phoenix Suns, is actively advocating for Johnson to remain in Brooklyn.

He said to The New York Post, ?I mean, I just know a lot of people probably want him on different teams. I just tell him, I?ll just be like ?I know money and this and that, but just know where I want you. And you can?t leave your Twin!?”
