Arkansas Talent Linked to Nets but it's Not Darius Acuff

Apr 27, 2026

Darius Acuff is a popular prospect ahead of the 2026 NBA Draft. So much so that he's viewed as a potential Brooklyn Nets option.

There's a different Arkansas talent linked as a Nets possibility, though.

Yahoo! Sports NBA columnist Kevin O'Connor plugs Trevon Brazile as a potential Brooklyn pick. Except the Nets nab him at No. 43 overall.

"Brazile once had some believers that he could end up a first-round pick in the NBA before injuries set him back. But as a senior, he finally looked like the bouncy, versatile forward that put him back on draft boards," O'Connor writes.
