Claxton, the longest-tenured Net, continues to search for consistency as a rim protector, just as the team as a whole has struggled to find its defensive identity. He's yet to record a block entering Wednesday's matchup against the Atlanta Hawks, and Brooklyn has been bullied inside, allowing 55.5 points in the paint per game. That's tied with the Memphis Grizzlies for 25th in the NBA.

"I'm still not over it," Reznick, 89, told the Daily News. "I was there for 26 hours, and I felt like I was there for a week. You have no idea what they did for us and how they treated us. All the stars were there. It was unbelievable, absolutely wonderful."

He's yet to suit up after sitting out Summer League with what the team called a minor left knee tendinopathy. At Media Day, general manager Sean Marks said Powell had not yet been cleared for 5-on-5 and would continue ramping up through training camp, with hopes of playing in the preseason. Powell later told reporters his knee "felt good" and expressed confidence in the return-to-play plan set by Brooklyn's medical staff.

The Nets recently waived Tosan Evbuomwan, a two-way forward who showed promise in limited playing time last season. After playing for the Detroit Pistons and Memphis Grizzlies as an undrafted rookie, the Newcastle, England native joined Brooklyn in January. The decision to waive Tosan Evbuomwan was unexpected. Despite appearing in only 28 games last season, he performed admirably when given the opportunity, averaging 9.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 23.8 minutes per game, demonstrating toughness and versatility on both ends of the court.

The Miami Heat traded Haywood Highsmith and a 2032 second-round pick to the Brooklyn Nets for a heavily protected 2026 second-round pick, aiming to duck under the luxury tax.

Obviously, we wish we could've been better, and I was willing to do everything in my power to get us back on a winning track.
