Eventful season comes to end Irving ended with 20 points (6-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, five assists and two blocks in 45 minutes during Monday's 116-112 loss to Boston.
Impact Being swept by Boston is a fittingly wild and intertwined ending to an embroiled season for Irving. Logging 42.6 minutes per game across the four series losses, Irving averaged 21.3 points per game on 44.4 percent shooting. Irving possesses a player option for next season and seems likely to return to the Nets with hopes of a better ending in mind.

Doghouse in loss Drummond supplied one rebound in four minutes during Monday's 116-112 loss to Boston.
Impact Drummond hasn't been overly relied upon of late, but Monday was confirmation that he'd been fully usurped by Blake Griffin. Across 73 appearances with Philadelphia and Brooklyn, Drummond averaged 7.9 points per game this season. With Nicolas Claxton likely to be retained and Ben Simmons to be introduced, it's quite possible Drummond finds himself in a different uniform next season.

Scraps to no avail Dragic chipped in 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), eight rebounds, four assists and one steal over 24 minutes during Monday's 116-112 loss to Boston.
Impact Dragic was one of Brooklyn's grittier players Monday night, hustling for loose balls and relentlessly pursuing rebounds. He led Brooklyn as a team in total rebounds as well as offensive rebounds (three). The 35-year-old is a candidate to return to Brooklyn next season.

Gone in a flash Brown logged two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in 24 minutes during Monday's 116-112 loss to the Celtics.
Impact Brown opened the series with a two-point effort, then he supplied consecutive monster outings which featured 20-plus points and eight rebounds apiece, and he finally vanished into the offseason with a five-point effort Monday. The 25-year-old averaged 9.0 points per game on 40.4 percent shooting from beyond the arc during the regular season. He will be an unrestricted free agent in the coming months.

Misses 18 shots in series-ending loss Durant recorded 39 points (13-31 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 10-11 FT), nine assists, seven rebounds and one steal in 47 minutes during Monday's 116-112 loss to the Celtics in Game 4 of the seri...
Impact Though he came through with a big scoring performance Monday, Durant's average of 26.3 points on 38.6 percent shooting from the field played a large part in the Nets getting swept by the Celtics. Despite his uncharacteristically inefficient postseason, Durant and the Nets will likely find themselves among the title favorites heading into the 2022-23 season. The Nets' hopes of making a deeper playoff run will hinge on the "Big Three" of Durant, Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons (back) coalescing and staying healthy when they eventually share the court for the first time.

Cooks despite loss Curry logged 23 points (9-13 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 38 minutes during Monday's 116-112 loss to Boston.
Impact Curry wraps up the series shooting 52.2 percent from beyond the arc en route to 14.5 points per contest. After a career-best season in Philadelphia, his volume numbers dipped slightly in Brooklyn, but his efficiency skyrocketed. Curry remains on contract with Brooklyn next season and can be viewed as a prolific source of threes.
