Report: Brooklyn Nets could be suitor for Rockets’ Kenyon Martin Jr.

The Brooklyn Nets have already gone through the 2023 NBA Draft and as a result, they can now turn their attention to free-agency as the next step in their offseason process. It looks like the Nets could be a destination for a young forward with some athleticism and some potential in his future.

According to a recent article by Jake Fischer of Yahoo! Sports, Brooklyn has been mentioned as suitors for Houston Rockets forward Kenyon Martin Jr. Martin Jr., 22, has been in the NBA for the past three seasons and had his best year last season when he averaged 12.7 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 1.5 assists per game while shooting 56.9% from the field and 31.5% from three-point land.

Martin Jr. is under contract for next season so the Nets would have to trade for him, but it could be something for Brooklyn to look out for as the offseason goes. The Nets have more than enough wings at the moment so it’s possible that Martin Jr. would not get much playing time with the current roster. He could be an upside play for Brooklyn though.
