Nets 2020 NBA mock draft radar: Moravian Prep wing Josh Hall

[jwplayer kBav5MVx]

Now that the Brooklyn Nets have hired their new head coach, they have to make whatever fortifications deemed necessary to have the right cast around Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving — whether that means re-signing players or bringing on new ones via trade or free agency.

The Nets could acquire pieces by utilizing one of or both of their 2020 NBA Draft picks, along with future ones. But Brooklyn still has quite a bit of time to assess the Class of 2020 with the NBA pushing the draft date back to November 18.

The Nets have Philadelphia’s first-round pick, which Brooklyn acquired when they sent the No. 27 pick in the 2019 NBA Draft — which wound up being Mfiondu Kabengele — to the Los Angeles Clippers.

The Nets’ second-round pick belongs to the Boston Celtics, but they have the Denver Nuggets’ second-round selection.

Right now, Brooklyn has the No. 19 and No. 55 picks.

Here’s a look at one player Brooklyn could take at No. 55:

Josh Hall – Moravian Prep – Wing

STATS: N/A

The 6-foot-9, 190-pound wing may be coming out of the prep ranks, but he’s not the youngest player in the draft, having just turned 20 in early October.

While Jeremy Woo of Sports Illustrated thinks Hall makes sense for the Nets at No. 55, there’s a chance the wing is available as an undrafted free agent.

Although he’s athletic and has plenty of time to evolve into a 3-and-D option down the line, there should be better options for the Nets at No. 55 than Hall — especially when considering he’ll absolutely need to spend time with the Long Island Nets and 2020-21 G League season may not happen.
