Finally, the NBA season is on the horizon as the preseason begins on Monday for the Brooklyn Nets. They will take on the Philadelphia 76ers in their opening game at home.
The Nets franchise will be taking the hardwood against Philly, opening in Barclays Center. The team will use this game to work on their various game plans and lineups. The first preseason game is an important one as it gives the team a chance to see how their players will compete together, several players are recovering from injuries so this will give them their first minutes back on the court.
The team will be bringing back talent, but will also give some younger players a chance to prove themselves and carve out some roleplaying minutes.
