After an early postseason exit in the first year of the Big 3 era, the Brooklyn Nets have been very active this offseason – and the Nets’ roster overhaul has them entering the season as championship favorites.
The latest addition to Brooklyn’s roster is one of the oldest active players in the NBA, four-time All-Star Paul Millsap, who will turn 37 in February. Millsap was expected to join a contender, and the Nets beat out the Warriors and Clippers, according to a report from The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
Millsap has been a double-digit scorer in 12 of his 15 career seasons in the NBA, and in his fourth and final season with the Nuggets, Millsap averaged nine points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 20.8 minutes per game.
