Nets take Mikel Brown Jr. with No. 6 overall pick in 2026 NBA Draft

· · 1 min read

The Brooklyn Nets had an interesting choice to make when it came to the No. 6 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, especially since a few of their potential targets were on the board. Brooklyn has been linked to various players over the course of the pre-draft process, but they eventually went with the guy that they met with behind the scenes multiple times.

The Nets chose Louisville guard Mikel Brown Jr. with the No. 6 pick after the Los Angeles Clippers selected Illinois guard Keaton Wagler with the No. 5 pick. Brown had worked out for the Nets and met with team brass multiple times prior to his being selected by the team on Tuesday and now, Brooklyn and Brown can move forward knowing who the point guard of the future will be.

And, there we are, the Nets take Louisville G Mikel Brown Jr. with the No. 6 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.
