The Brooklyn Nets are dead last in CBS Sports' latest power rankings.
The Brooklyn Nets have officially hit the reset button after the team traded Mikal Bridges to the New York Knicks.
On top of that, the Nets also made a deal with the Houston Rockets to get control of their picks back in exchange for the Phoenix Suns' future draft capital. That's why CBS Sports writer Brad Botkin has the Nets placed in dead last in his latest power rankings from across the league. "Brooklyn has every incentive to tank for this one season as it regained control of its 2025 and 2026 first-round picks in a deal with Houston.
This year might be a good one to try and bottom out on. With Duke star Cooper Flagg expected to be the No. 1 pick, he could be the star player the Nets have been waiting to build around.
