Beijing time on October 13, news from the US media reported that Kyrie Irving would not participate in training or competitions with the team before being vaccinated. As a result, Bruce Brown is likely to replace Irving into the Nets’ starting lineup.
Irving can’t play in the new season, who will replace him in the starting position? For Nets coach Steve Nash, this is indeed a headache. According to informed sources, Brown is most likely to replace Irving.
In the regular season last season, Brown played 37 starts in 65 games, averaging 22.3 minutes, 8.8 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game.
So far this year’s preseason, Brown has played 3 games, averaging 19.7 minutes, 7.0 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.3 steals.
Sources said that in addition to Brown, Patty Mills, Jewon Carter, and rookie Cameron Thomas may all get more playing time.
On the other hand, when playing against some experienced teams, Mills may also get a chance to start.
Nets general manager Sean Marks said in an interview today: “James Harden and Kevin Durant already know the team’s decision, we need to pay attention to the existing 16 players on the team’s roster. Yes, our goal will not change, that is to be the last team to play.”Return to Sohu to see more
