Should the Nets push to make the playoffs in 2026-27 NBA season?
The Brooklyn Nets are rebuilding and may have the first overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, but they won't have their first-round pick in 2027, raising questions about whether they should push for a playoff spot in 2026-27. The team's general manager, Sean Marks, will have to make decisions on free-agency, trades, and the draft.
The Brooklyn Nets are heading into a significant offseason after finishing the 2025-26 NBA season with a 20-62 record. They could have the first overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, but will not have their first-round pick in 2027. The team is considering whether to push for a playoff spot in 2026-27 by adding veterans on the free-agent or trade market. Adding three or four players to their current roster could make them competitive for a Play-In Tournament spot. However, signing win-now veterans to long-term deals could limit their ability to add impact players later. General manager Sean Marks must be prepared for various outcomes in the 2026 NBA Draft Lottery, as the Nets' pick could fall between No. 1 and No. 7. The team also has several free-agents to address this summer. Brooklyn will need to make decisions on free-agency, trades, and the draft to determine their strategy for the 2026-27 season.
