The wait is over — Brooklyn Nets basketball is officially back!
On this episode of Battered Nets Fans, we react to everything coming out of Nets Media Day and look ahead to the biggest questions entering training camp and preseason.
What should we expect from Julius Randle and Michael Porter Jr.? How big of a leap can Egor Dëmin make in Year 2? What will No. 6 pick Mikel Brown Jr. look like in his first NBA training camp? Which young players will earn real minutes? And what will Jordi Fernández's rotation actually look like when the games begin?
We'll also discuss the competition for playing time, the development of Brooklyn's young core, the biggest things we want to learn during preseason, and what would make us more — or less — optimistic about this team before Opening Night.
The 2026-27 journey starts NOW.
