Jalen Wilson buys into the Brooklyn Nets culture

The Brooklyn Nets are entering a new era with Jordi Fernandez as the team’s head coach, and he’s looking for players to buy what he’s selling.

Among those jumping on board is Jalen Wilson, who is entering his second season in the league with the Nets.

Wilson spoke highly of Fernandez and the positive change he made during the offseason.

“You just see how serious everyone takes it, especially himself, when it comes to winning and wanting to change an organization,” Wilson said, via Sharif Phillips-Keaton of Nets Wire. “I don’t know how many games we won last year, but obviously we want to win more and be a team that can be in the play-offs. It all takes a process, it all takes time, and to see that they already to have.” vision is really cool, because it’s his first year here and already has big plans, it’s cool.”

Wilson hopes to further integrate himself into the Nets’ future plans. A second-round pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, Wilson went from a two-way deal to a standard deal in March after impressing his team. He averaged five points per game in 43 games for the Nets in his rookie year.

To keep things going, Wilson needs to fit into Fernandez’s system, and the more he does, the more he will grow and emerge as a pro with the Nets.
