Traore logged 17 points (5-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), one rebound, three assists, one block and two steals across 27 minutes during Friday's 105-86 loss to the Thunder.
Traore entered the All-Star break riding a hot stretch of play but cooled off once regular play resumed. The rookie first-rounder got back on track Friday, scoring 17 points against the Thunder along with a block and two steals on the defensive end. It marked his fourth time scoring 17 or more points so far in his career, all within the past month.
Traore totaled 20 points (8-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), eight assists, two rebounds and one steal across 32 minutes in Wednesday's 115-110 loss to Indiana.
After recording his first career double-double in Monday's win over Chicago, Traore led Brooklyn in scoring Wednesday. The rookie first-rounder finished one point shy of tying his career high and has reached the 20-point mark three times this season. His eight assists against Indiana were also a game-best mark. The 19-year-old point guard has scored in double figures in four straight games and has started each of Brooklyn's last eight. With the Nets near the bottom of the standings in the Eastern Conference, he'll likely continue to see significant burn moving forward.
Nets' Nolan Traore: Secures first career double-double
Rotowire
Traore produced 13 points (5-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 13 assists, three rebounds, one block and one steal over 32 minutes during Monday's 123-115 victory over Chicago.
Traore scored in double figures for a third straight game Monday, but his more impressive achievement came in the assist column. He set a season high with 13 assists, resulting in the first double-double of his young NBA career. Traore has stepped up as a facilitator of late, as he's averaging 5.7 assists in his last seven appearances after dishing out 2.7 assists per game in his first 23 outings of the year.

Nets' Nolan Traore: Nets 21 points with seven assists
Rotowire
Traore closed Thursday's 118-98 loss to the Magic with 21 points (7-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 38 minutes.
Traore tied his career highs in points and assists, becoming the first Nets rookie to record at least 20 points and seven assists in a game since MarShon Brooks did so in March of 2012. Traore has shown flashes this season but has struggled to put everything together consistently. Still, with the Nets sitting at 13-36, the rookie should see nothing but opportunity over the second half of the season.

Nets' Nolan Traore: Quiet in first career start
Rotowire
Traore closed with nine points (4-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one block over 30 minutes during Thursday's 107-103 loss to the Nuggets.
Making his first start in the NBA with fellow rookie Egor Demin (foot) sidelined, Traore didn't look out of place, but he didn't make much of an impact, either. Traore missed the last two games himself due to an illness, and through 14 contests in January, the 19th overall pick in the 2025 Draft is averaging 7.9 points, 3.5 assists, 1.5 boards and 1.1 threes in 23.9 minutes.

Traore will draw the first start of his NBA career with Egor Demin (foot) sidelined. Traore sat out of Sunday's matchup against the Clippers due to illness and wasn't deployed off the bench despite being available Tuesday, but he'll be in line for his fair share of opportunities Thursday night.

Nets' Nolan Traore: Available Tuesday
Rotowire
Traore (illness) is available for Tuesday's game against the Suns, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Traore missed Sunday's loss to the Clippers due to an illness but will shed his probable tag and suit up Tuesday. The rookie first-rounder has seen consistent burn across 13 appearances this month, averaging 7.8 points, 3.5 assists and 1.5 rebounds across 23.5 minutes per tilt during that span.

Nets' Nolan Traore: Likely to return Tuesday
Rotowire
Traore (illness) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Suns.
Traore has been battling through an illness that prevented him from playing against the Clippers on Sunday, but the rookie first-rounder appears to be on track to play Tuesday. Friday's double-overtime loss to the Celtics was the most productive game of Traore's young career, during which he recorded 21 points, three rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block over 37 minutes.

Nets' Nolan Traore: Won't play Sunday
Rotowire
Traore has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Clippers due to illness.
Traore is feeling under the weather, and he'll be unavailable for Sunday's matchup with the Clippers. Cam Thomas (ankle) is also out, so Ben Saraf, Tyrese Martin and Terance Mann will handle most of the reserve guard minutes. Traore's next chance to play will come Tuesday at Phoenix.

Nets' Nolan Traore: Has best game as a pro
Rotowire
Traore ended Friday's 130-126 double-overtime loss to Boston with 21 points (7-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 37 minutes.
This was the performance that showed why Traore was a first-round pick for Brooklyn. He posted career highs in points, steals, and minutes played in the double-overtime loss while serving as Brooklyn's second-leading scorer on the night. Hopefully, the 19th overall pick in last year's draft builds off of this performance as the second half of his rookie season carries on.

Nets' Nolan Traore: Scores 16 points in loss
Rotowire
Traore chipped in 16 points (4-8 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), one rebound and two assists in 26 minutes during Sunday's 124-102 loss to Chicago.
Traore wasn't provided many opportunities to open the campaign, but the Nets are currently giving him a long look in the rotation. He hasn't made much noise in fantasy hoops just yet, however, as he's averaging 7.1 points, 3.9 assists, 1.4 rebounds and 1.4 three-pointers on 32.1 percent shooting from the field over his last seven outings.

Nets' Nolan Traore: Dishes out six more dimes
Rotowire
Traore ended Monday's 113-105 loss to the Mavericks with six points (3-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt), one rebound, six assists and one steal in 22 minutes.
Traore tied the team high in dimes off the bench, which now makes it consecutive outings with six assists for the rookie first-rounder. It seems like the Nets are ready to give Traore more meaningful playing time, as the guard has played at least 20 minutes in six of his last seven appearances, but Traore remains a work in progress and could remain hard-pressed for fantasy relevance in 2025-26.

Nets' Nolan Traore: Quiet in 26 minutes
Rotowire
Traore supplied three points (1-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt), two assists and one steal over 26 minutes during Thursday's 120-96 loss to Houston.
Traore saw a solid workload Thursday, but he wasn't able to find his rhythm. With Michael Porter (illness) and Terance Mann (hip) both day-to-day, Traore could potentially get another big chance Friday against Washington.
