Bigger, Faster, Better: Wizards Overpower Shorthanded Nets

Early in the Wizards’ win over the Brooklyn Nets, a thought popped to mind for the first time this season (and probably last season too): The Wizards are better than these guys. It surely helped that Michael Porter Jr. — the Nets best offensive player — and Nic Claxton — their best defender — were […]

Short-Handed Nets fall 119–99 to Wizards

Sometimes the schedule hands you a game that feels less like a test and more like a setup. With their best three players all sidelined on the second night of a back-to-back, it didn’t take a genius to predict how Friday night’s game was going to turn out. While losing 119–99 to the Washington Wizards, […]

Wizards easily handle Brooklyn, win 119-99

LIVE DISCUSSION: Brooklyn Nets at Washington Wizards, 7:00 PM ET

The Nets opened the New Year looking more like the team we’ve grown used to in recent seasons, rather than the version we watched throughout December.

Bucks interested in Michael Porter Jr.

Amid reports that they’re looking to buy ahead of next month’s trade deadline, recent intel from both Sam Amick of The Athletic and Jake Fischer of The Stein Line suggests that the Bucks are in on Nets forward Michael Porter Jr., according to league sources.

Nets vs. Wizards preview: Friday night in DC

The Brooklyn Nets’ final practice of 2025, even as it followed a loss to the Golden State Warriors, was quite chipper. Drake Powell and Nolan Traore got up extra shots together, working on their skills but also taking the time to laugh with each other and their coaches. Danny Wolf could hardly concentrate on free-throws […]

No word on Haywood Highsmith return but Nets happy with him anyway

The Nets do not traditionally provide return dates for injured players. They may hint at it, with Jordi Fernandez noting a player is “making progress” or has begun 5-on-5 play.

Brooklyn Nets lose lead against Golden State Warriors, lose game, 120-107

Steve Kerr knew what his Golden State Warriors were in for when they visited the Brooklyn Nets on Monday night: “Every time we’ve played them over the last couple years, they’ve been energetic, well-organized, well-coached. So, you know, they came to our place last year and beat us. We came here last year, and it […]
