Brooklyn Nets Keeping An Eye On Detroit Piston's Kentavious Caldwell-Pope As He Goes Free Agency By End Of Season

Seriously looking to do better next season, the Brooklyn Nets is looking to bolster their wing spots by looking at Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. And with the luxury of money that the Nets have, they can definitely lure the former University of Georgia Bulldog to make a move from Michigan to New York.

According to the reports from the New York Post, the scouts took notice of the 24-year old Caldwell-Pope flourishing with the system of the Detroit Pistons. In the Nets' 98-96 win over the Pistons, KCP had 19 points, 4 boards and 3 assists, prompting the management to even make him a priority as he will become a restricted free agent after this season.

Sports Daily pointed out that KCP demanded $20 million a year to the Pistons but there was no deal that happened between the two. That development could make KCP look for another team to give his demands and Brooklyn is one that could give whim what he wants.

Drafted by the Pistons 8th overall in 2013, KCP's numbers continue to improve as years progresses. Based on the stats on ESPN, he is currently averaging 14.1 points, 3,2 rebounds, 2.7 assists and has become an integral part of Detroit's offense, together with Reggie Jackson, Tobias harris and all-star center Andre Drummond, logging in 33.8 minutes.

A separate report by ESPN, KCP told the press that he is not worried about his impending move and try checking his value on the free agent market. That's up to them. I'll leave that to the organization and my agent, so I'm not worried about that. I think about basketball. This is what I do. This is my job, so I'm going to play basketball. I've got a family to feed," the 6-foot-5 shooting guard added.

Other than KCP, Sports World News have written yesterday about the Nets expressing their interest in Serbian guard Milos Teodosic. Considered as one of the best point guards outside the NBA, the 30-year old Teodosic could also be persuaded by the Nets with the team's connection to his current team in Russia, which is CSKA Moscow, from Nets' owner Mikhail Prokhorov down to assistant team manager Trajan Langdon, who played professionally for 8 years with the reds.
