NBA Trade Rumors: 5 players unlikely to be back with the Brooklyn Nets for the 2020-21 season

#3. Caris LeVert

Caris LeVert is arguably the third-best player on the Brooklyn Nets' roster at the moment. While it may seem like a no-brainer to keep him on the team after his exceptional performance in the NBA bubble, he is also the Nets' biggest asset in the NBA trade market.

If the Nets are hell-bent on adding a 3rd superstar next to Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant, NBA trade rumors suggest that they would be forced to part ways with Caris LeVert this offseason. The 26-year-old is still far from his peak and would be a great asset for any team in the league.

#4. Tyler Johnson

Tyler Johnson joined the Brooklyn Nets back in June 2020 and has played only 8 games so far.

The 27-year-old averaged 12 points per game in the NBA bubble and might attract some offers from other teams. Johnson will be an unrestricted free agent in the upcoming offseason, and the Nets will likely let him walk away.

#5. Wilson Chandler

Wilson Chandler played only 35 games for the Brooklyn Nets this season and averaged 5.9 points. Though he's been a key contributor for the Denver Nuggets in the past, his best days are behind him, and the 33-year-old would not be able to help the Nets in a significant way.

It's unlikely that the Nets re-sign him in the offseason as the veteran heads into free agency.
