Nets' Ben Saraf: Inefficient shooting night Saturday
Rotowire
Saraf finished with 15 points (4-14 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-7 FT), one rebound, five assists and one block over 32 minutes in Saturday's 83-76 Summer League loss to Atlanta.
Saraf didn't have his best showing Saturday. He shot an inefficient 4-for-14 from the field while failing to make any of his attempts from behind the arc. Saraf, the 2025 No. 26 overall pick, appeared in 44 regular-season games for the Nets as a rookie, averaging 7.5 points, 2.1 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 0.2 blocks and 0.9 steals across 20.8 minutes. Several aspects of the 20-year-old's game need improvement, and while he could earn a larger role during the 2026-27 campaign, he will continue to face stiff competition for minutes.

Nets' Joshua Jefferson: Quiet in debut Saturday
Rotowire
Jefferson ended with nine points (1-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals over 26 minutes in Saturday's 83-76 Summer League loss to the Hawks.
Jefferson made his Summer League debut Saturday. However, he struggled overall, finishing with only nine points while shooting an inefficient 1-for-8 from behind the field. The 22-year-old was selected with the No. 28 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft after spending his final collegiate season at Iowa State in 2025-26. In 35 appearances, including one NCAA Tournament game, Jefferson averaged 16.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 0.8 blocks and 1.6 steals over 30.9 minutes.

Nets' Danny Wolf: Scores 20 in SL loss
Rotowire
Wolf closed with 20 points (9-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal over 26 minutes in Saturday's 83-76 Summer League loss to the Hawks.
Wolf showed out offensively, matching teammate Chaney Johnson with a game-high 20 points. Coming off a rookie campaign in which he averaged 8.9 points, 4.9 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 20.8 minutes per contest across 57 regular-season appearances (15 starts), Wolf will look to use the Summer League to sharpen his game and push for a larger role during the 2026-27 season. That opportunity may be harder to come by, however, after the Nets added Julius Randle at power forward this offseason.

Nets' Chaney Johnson: Double-double in SL loss
Rotowire
Johnson totaled 20 points (9-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt), 10 rebounds and five steals over 32 minutes in Saturday's 83-76 Summer League loss to the Hawks.
Johnson was dominant despite the loss, matching teammate Danny Wolf with a game-high 20 points as part of a double-double effort. Of Johnson's 10 rebounds, five came on the offensive glass. He also made his presence felt defensively with five steals, while no other player recorded more than three swipes. The Auburn product saw significant run down the stretch of the 2025-26 regular season with the Nets, averaging 8.2 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 20.5 minutes per contest across 17 appearances.

Nets' Joshua Jefferson: Available to play Saturday
Rotowire
Jefferson will play in Saturday's Summer League game versus Atlanta, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Jefferson wasn't available to suit up until the trade between the Timberwolves and Nets that centered around Nic Claxton and Julius Randle was finalized. The 22-year-old Jefferson, selected with the No. 28 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, finished his collegiate career at Iowa State, most recently averaging 16.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 0.8 blocks and 1.6 steals over 30.9 minutes in 35 appearances, including one NCAA Tournament game.

Nets' Danny Wolf: Modest showing in SL win Friday
Rotowire
Wolf (back) finished with nine points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one block across 21 minutes in Friday's 91-65 Summer League win over the Knicks.
It wasn't a great performance from Wolf, but it was still an encouraging showing considering he wasn't available for the California Classic because of a back issue. The 22-year-old appeared in 57 regular-season games during his rookie 2025-26 campaign, and he averaged 10.2 points, 2.3 assists, 6.3 rebounds, 0.8 blocks and 0.7 steals over 26.0 minutes in 15 starts. Looking ahead to next season, Julius Randle, who was acquired from Minnesota in June, has a firm grasp on the power forward position, while Day'Ron Sharpe is the favorite to start at center. However, Wolf should have an opportunity to see consistent playing time in the rotation throughout the 2026-27 campaign.

Nets' Mikel Brown: Scores 20 points with three stocks
Rotowire
Brown recorded 20 points (6-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound, three assists, two steals and one block over 22 minutes during Friday's 91-65 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Knicks.
Brown was locked in on both ends, getting whatever he wanted offensively while wreaking havoc on defense. He likely would have posted an even bigger stat line, but with the Nets comfortably ahead, he spent most of the fourth quarter on the bench.

Demin finished Friday's 91-65 Summer League win over the Knicks with 20 points (7-15 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block across 22 minutes.
Demin shot 0-for-4 from downtown in the first quarter but bounced back in the second, during which he posted 10 points while connecting on two of his four three-point tries. The 20-year-old guard finished the contest tied for the team lead in scoring, and he also matched the team-high mark in triples made. He's reached the 20-point mark in all three of his appearances this summer.

Rotowire
Demin recorded 23 points (7-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and two steals over 26 minutes during Monday's 100-79 California Classic Summer League win over the Warriors Blue.
Demin led Brooklyn in both points and rebounds while also doing an excellent job facilitating the offense. The second-year guard should open the season as a starter in Brooklyn, and it'll be interesting to see how he fares fighting for touches with Michael Porter, Julius Randle and rookie No. 6 overall pick Mikel Brown.
