Brooklyn locks in Day’Ron Sharpe on a two-year, 12.5M deal with a second-year option, preserving frontcourt depth as the Nets rebuild. Sharpe, 23, posted 7.9 PPG and 6.6 RPG in about 18 minutes per game last season and should push for minutes in 2025-26.

Additionally, Brooklyn adds EJ Liddell on a two-way deal, boosting versatility on the wings/forward spot. The moves reflect a focus on youth with cap flexibility, giving the Nets room to develop while preserving options if the timeline shifts.
