Injured star Kevin Durant showed off his new jersey and Kyrie Irving was pictured working out Thursday as the Brooklyn Nets provided a glimpse of preparations for their upcoming NBA campaign. With the start of their pre-season schedule barely two weeks away and a trip to China next month to face the Los Angeles Lakers looming, the Nets heightened anticipation for the 2019-20 season with Twitter postings. Durant suffered a ruptured right Achilles tendon in last season's NBA Finals and is expected to miss the entire 2019-20 campaign for the Nets after leaving the Golden State Warriors and signing with Brooklyn after the NBA Finals.
