Opting for one of these scenarios could save Brooklyn millions come free agency.
While Nic Claxton has developed into one of the league's bright young interior centers since Brooklyn dealt Jarrett Allen, the Nets are not in a position to hand the big man the $20-$25 million annually he is likely to command this summer. In the words of Brooklyn's owner Joe Tsai, the franchise is "at a crossroads" regarding a decision to blow it up or attempt to contend. But whichever way Tsai and GM Sean Marks lean, Claxton may not be in the future plans.
Claxton is likely the most intriguing center set to become available in free agency, but he isn't the only talented option available. Should the Nets decide to attempt to immediately compete, options at the five spot would include Jonas Valanciunas, Andre Drummond or even reuniting with their former big man Mason Plumlee. All would come at a much cheaper pricetag than Claxton while bringing similar levels of production.
