The 2025 NBA Draft has set the stage for a transformative offseason as teams look to integrate new talent while making tough roster decisions. The Brooklyn Nets initiated changes by waiving Maxwell Lewis, a player whose journey included time with LeBron James and the Lakers. Lewis, a second-round pick in 2023, struggled to find his footing, averaging only 5.3 points in his brief stint with Brooklyn. The Nets, who made five first-round selections at the draft, are now focused on their upcoming Summer League campaign in Las Vegas, eager to see their new acquisitions in action.

Brooklyn’s general manager Sean Marks expressed optimism about the talent acquired, emphasizing their potential to contribute to the team's long-term vision. With a mix of international and collegiate players, the Nets aim to build a competitive roster that aligns with their future goals. The Summer League, starting July 10, offers a crucial platform for these young athletes to showcase their abilities and secure their spots on the team.
