Brooklyn Nets: Starting lineup locks, fringe and potential break-ins

The Brooklyn Nets team is solid with Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant leading the pack, but what about the team’s options for other starters and on the bench?

The newly formed duo of Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant make up the gist of what you need to know and see about the rebuilt Brooklyn Nets. Their starting five is likely to be centered around the two stars. However, there are others who make up the new Nets team you will notice when you watch them this season.

Brooklyn is full of talent, and like many teams in the league, it is looking to use its roster to make a mark on the league and win games. The good thing about the Nets is that they made many offseason changes like the other teams but kept some of their players from last season while also hiring Steve Nash as their head coach. The Nets really had the best rebuild in the league this offseason.

Their task is to figure out what to do with what they have and how to implement all of their players into KD and Kyrie’s scheme. The Nets had an impressive showing in the bubble in the absence of Kyrie and Durant in the first round against the Raptors. That further shows that the Nets’ goal is figuring out who their dependable pieces are and their potential in urgent situations.

This piece is about the locks, fringe, and potential break-ins, and this is what those options look like for the Brooklyn Nets.
