"All the coaches are coaches for the same club. We've had great communication; we have a system in place... It's more important for the players to see what their path is to get better. Obviously, the work that you put in day to day is important, but there's no more important thing than playing real minutes. And real minutes are in the NBA, real minutes are in Long Island."
"The Nets assigned Ben Saraf, Nolan Traoré and Danny Wolf to their G League affiliate on Long Island on Tuesday, leaving Egor Demin as the lone active rookie on Brooklyn's roster heading into Wednesday's road matchup against the Indiana Pacers. Drake Powell also remains out with a right ankle sprain sustained in Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. However, Michael Porter Jr. is expected to return after missing Monday's game for personal reasons."
"After starting the first five games of the season at point guard, Ben Saraf was replaced by Tyrese Martin on Sunday and didn't play, then saw only garbage-time minutes in Monday's loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Traoré has played in only three of Brooklyn's first seven games, totaling 34 minutes, while Wolf's NBA debut was delayed until Monday as he recovered from his own ankle injury."
Brooklyn assigned Ben Saraf, Nolan Traoré and Danny Wolf to its G League affiliate on Long Island, leaving Egor Demin as the lone active rookie. Drake Powell remains sidelined with a right ankle sprain, while Michael Porter Jr. is expected to return after a personal absence. Saraf, Traoré and Wolf have struggled for consistent minutes in Jordi Fernández's rotation, prompting the team to seek game reps and development opportunities in the G League; Powell could follow once healthy. Demin has averaged 6.2 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists in 19.8 minutes across six games. Long Island opens Friday at Nassau Coliseum.
