Nets' Trade Return For MPJ Could Be Limited To One Protected First

The Nets may be forced to settle for just one protected first-round pick in any Michael Porter Jr. trade, according to reporting from Sean Deveney. The limited return is tied to the salary obligation any acquiring team would inherit, with MPJ reportedly seeking an extension near the $40 million per year he currently earns.
