A week after the 2025 NBA Draft, the Brooklyn Nets have already taken steps to secure their future by signing several of their first-round picks.

According to the Nets’ PR team, Brooklyn has agreed to contract terms with No. 8 pick Egor Demin, No. 26 pick Ben Saraf, and No. 27 pick Danny Wolf.

While most of their first-round picks are officially on board, No.19 pick Nolan Traore and No.22 pick Drake Powell have yet to sign. However, both of their situations involve circumstances that are out of their control.

In Traore’s case, he’s still waiting on FIBA's approval after the Nets bought out his contract from Saint-Quentin, his club team in France. According to Brian Lewis of the New York Post, while the deal isn’t finalized just yet, there’s no reason for Nets fans to panic.

“The French point guard's delay in signing is just due to paperwork issues. He should be good to go for Las Vegas Summer League,” Lewis reported. “The Nets had to pay Saint-Quentin the maximum buyout for Nolan Traore. Now the parties have been waiting on a FIBA letter regarding said buyout. Once that's all done, Traore can officially sign with Brooklyn.”

Powell’s situation is a bit less complicated. Since his draft rights were traded from the Atlanta Hawks, league rules prevent him from officially signing until July 6the date when the NBA allows trades and free agent signings can be finalized.
