Nets guard Nolan Traore undergoes right knee scope, out for summer league

Summary

Brooklyn Nets general manager Sean Marks announced that guard Nolan Traore has recently undergone a scope procedure on his right knee and will miss the summer league. Traore, who was the No. 19 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, is expected to return in time for training camp in early September. The decision for surgery comes after Traore dealt with an injury earlier in the season. After a 2025-26 season where he averaged 8.9 points and 3.8 assists, Traore's absence in summer league means he will compete for a starting role against newly drafted guard Mikel Brown Jr. once he recovers.
