Bojan Bogdanovic - Without a timetable Bogdanovic (foot) said Monday that he remains without a timetable for a return, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
Impact Bogdanovic said his wrist isn't really an issue anymore, but his surgically-repaired foot is still on the mend. He'll be able to do some on-court stuff during training camp, but he hasn't been cleared for 5-on-5 yet and it sounds like the Nets are prepared to take a cautious approach with the veteran to open the season.

Bojan Bogdanovic - Not ready for training camp Bogdanovic (wrist/foot) will not be ready to go for the beginning of training camp, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Impact While Bogdanovic underwent successful surgeries on his left foot and left wrist this offseason, he will be limited in action to begin Brooklyn's training camp. However, the veteran forward was able to compete in an exhibition game earlier in September, so there is a chance he will be ready to go once the regular season rolls around.

Ben Simmons - Good to go for training camp Simmons (back) will participate in the Nets' training camp beginning Oct. 1 without any restrictions, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports.
Impact Simmons underwent a microscopic partial discectomy to alleviate nerve impingement in his lower back in March but appears to have made a full recovery.

While injuries will always be a concern for Simmons, he could be heavily featured for a rebuilding Nets team in 2024-25.

Tyrese Martin - Signs pact with Brooklyn The Nets signed Martin to a training camp deal Friday, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports.
Impact Martin will suit up for Brooklyn in training camp, but he will likely end up on the club's G League team, the Long Island Nets, if he does not secure the team's final two-way spot. The 25-year-old spent the 2023-24 campaign with the G League's Iowa Wolves, during which he averaged 17.9 points, 8.0 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 0.9 steals over 35.1 minutes per game over 33 appearances.

The 25-year-old spent the 2023-24 campaign with Long Island, during which he averaged 8.4 points and 5.8 rebounds across 15.8 minutes in 18 appearances.

Impact Bailey was the 41st pick of the 2023 NBA Draft and played for the Hornets last season. He's unlikely to make the roster for the start of the regular season, but he'll add depth in training camp and should contend for a G League role in a worst-case scenario.
