The Brooklyn Nets have been active this summer in taking on contracts, while adding future assets for doing so. With over $16 million remaining in cap space, the Nets may not be done either.
Sean Marks has already brought in Michael Porter Jr., Terance Mann and Haywood Highsmith this offseason in salary-clearing trades. Those three deals netted Brooklyn two first-round picks (one was used to draft Drake Powell in 2025) and a future second-round pick.
The Nets have contracts lined up to re-sign Day’Ron Sharpe and Ziaire Williams, and to add Ricky Council IV, which makes roster spots an issue to monitor. Brooklyn currently has 15 players under contract, in addition to Cam Thomas as a still-pending restricted free agent.
