Brooklyn is currently trying to rebuild after the breakup of the Big 3 in the hopes of getting back to playoff contention sometime soon and there is a former player who is looking to get back in the league.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Good morning @NBA, I was wondering if any teams had a training camp spot for an kind chap like myself,&#8221; former <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/basketball\/nba\/teams\/brooklyn-nets\/17\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Nets;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Nets<\/a> forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson said on X.

I also can guard just about anyone.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hollis-Jefferson, 30, played his first four years in the NBA with the Nets and based on the numbers, those were his best years in the league. Hollis-Jefferson averaged 9.9 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.0 steals per game while shooting 44.4% from the field and 22.3% from three-point land. Heading into the 2019-20 season, Hollis-Jefferson joined the Toronto Raptors before playing finally playing for the Trail Blazers during the 2020-21 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I also don\u2019t mind getting guys better in practice,&#8221; Hollis-Jefferson continued in his post while trying to show what his worth would be to any team looking for a veteran presence. &#8220;Pushing them to the next level. Make it tough in practice scrimmage when necessary for the core guys to be elite in game situations!&#8221; Hollis-Jefferson has effectively been out of the NBA since the 2020-21 season, but he is still 30 years old and could have something left in the tank.<\/p>\n<p>This article originally appeared on Nets Wire: <a href=\"https:\/\/netswire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/nba\/nets\/2025\/07\/29\/former-nets-f-rondae-hollis-jefferson-looking-to-get-back-in-nba\/85417107007\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Former Nets F Rondae Hollis-Jefferson looking to get back in NBA;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Former Nets F Rondae Hollis-Jefferson looking to get back in NBA<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Brooklyn Nets have had plenty of players come through the franchise since its inception and the organization&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":29681,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[557],"tags":[64,63,5997,590,12301,4621,85,17602],"class_list":["post-29680","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nba","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-brooklyn-nets","tag-nba","tag-nba-draft","tag-portland-trail-blazers","tag-sports","tag-toronto-raptors"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29680","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29680"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29680\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29681"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
