Who will be playing for the Nets in the 2025 NBA LV Summer League?

The Brooklyn Nets announced on Saturday their roster for the upcoming 2025 NBA Las Vegas Summer League that will be held from July 10-20. Brooklyn will be participating in the event for the 11th time and Nets fans have seen some of the young players on the team rise to the occasion like forward Jalen Wilson did last year.

Summer League is an important time of the NBA calendar for NBA teams as they get to see how some of their younger players perform against NBA competition prior to training camp and the preseason. The Nets will be taking this time of the year more important than most teams given how many rookies they drafted from the 2025 NBA Draft that was held last week.

From Egor Demin to Danny Wolf, Brooklyn and its fans will be able to see some of the youngest players on the team get on the floor and show what they have at this point. However, there are other players on the roster to show what they have as well so here are the players that will make up the team as it competes for a championship on the UNLV campus:
