The Nets have 15 guaranteed contracts and will need to waive someone to fit Aldridge on the opening day roster. Aldridge has had an impressive career, a five-time All-NBA and seven-time All-Star player, plus he is only of only 25 NBA players with more than 19, points and 8, rebounds in his career.
He is almost unstoppable on the left block, with a variety of moves and counters, but can step out to three and space the floor. Time has robbed Aldridge, 36, of some athleticism and efficiency, but he can still play a role. I still have something to give. I still love the game. I wanted to do it on my own terms. In deciding to play again, Aldridge was also focused on returning to Brooklyn, even after having such a limited experience with the Nets. He played five games with the team last season, averaging I never got to really experience it with these guys.
I never got to the postseason with these guys. I enjoyed the guys here. They welcomed me with open arms. It was a very short stint here, but I enjoyed every day of it so why not come back? He provides the Nets with size and a post presence that is one of the few weaknesses on a high-scoring team that often played small. The Nets have re-signed LaMarcus Aldridge! That pursuit has been the primary focus in Brooklyn, with its busy offseason serving as evidence.
Brooklyn also extended the contract of superstar Kevin Durant, re-signed forward Blake Griffin and brought the Australian veteran Patty Mills into the fold this summer.
