2. Brooklyn Nets

If significant playing time is something that Nicholson desires, he should look no further than the lowly Brooklyn Nets.

The Nets are in a tough position, as they seem destined to be a bottom three team in the association next season, but wouldn’t keep their draft pick due to a pick swap with the Boston Celtics sending the more desirable of the picks to Boston.

The Nets need to add talent to this roster, but obviously don’t want to spend a lot of money for a team that is far away from the playoff race.

A potential hidden gem like Nicholson should have a lot of appeal for the Nets, especially at the power forward position where they just sent Thaddeus Young packing. Regardless of what direction they go, they can use the toughness and floor spacing Nicholson would bring.
