Rodions Kurucs was starting PF in #Nets first 5-on-5 scrimmage today. Sounds like Hacque Vaughn expects major contribution from him.

The spectator Greg Logan reports that Kurucs was in the position of a forward striker in the training game, which means that the head coach Jacques Von expects a great contribution from him.
Jacque Vaughn says Nets hope to improve Donta Hall “while he’s here.” Added that Rodions Kurucs started at the 4 for the first team. Likes he can guard multiple positions. “Good practice today.”

NetsDaily also reports that Rodion was in the top lineup. The coach likes that he can play in defense against multi-position basketball players. “Today was a good workout,” Wons commented.
Temple big on Rodi potential.
“Gonna need him.”— NetsDaily (@NetsDaily) July 10, 2020
Team veteran Gareth Temple also said of Kuruc’s potential: “We will need him.”
This year has clearly been more difficult and modest for Kurucs compared to the debut season. In the debut season, NBA Kurucs stood out with an average of 8.5 points and 3.9 rebounds in 63 games (46 in the main line-up), but this season the Latvian has scored an average of 4.2 points and 2.5 balls under the baskets in 39 dues (four in the starting line-up).
The Brooklyn team will not be helped much of the season by Kevin Durant, Cairy Irving, Spencer Dinvidie, Deander Jordan, Torian Prince, Nick Clackon and Wilson Chandler.
The club yesterday signed contracts with 40-year-old Jamal Crawford, 31-year-old Michael Bisley and 22-year-old Donta Hall, who was previously in the Detroit’s Pistons system, representing the unit’s farm club Grandrapidas Drive G League.
The first match for the Nets team is scheduled for July 31 against the homeowners Orlando “Magic”. This will be followed by matches with Washington Wizards, Milwaukee Bucks, Boston Celtics, Sacramento Kings, Los Angeles Clippers, again with Magic and a final pre-play match with Portland’s Trail Blazers. .
