There are multiple reports circulating that Bojan Bogdanovic is nearing his return and could make his season debut this December. A date has not been finalized.

Bogdanovic’s recovery from foot surgery should be finished by then, which means fans will only have to wait a couple of more weeks until his return.

“I saw him on the court shooting [Wednesday]. But playing 5-on-5 and in a real game, he’s progressing well. We’re not gonna give an exact date, but he’s doing good,” Nets coach Jordi Fernandez said about Bogdanovic’s recovery. “He’s in good spirits, he had a good week. He was with us on the road. Having him around is important because he’s a veteran. He’ll talk in huddles, he gives guys tips on what to do and his involvement is very important.”

The 35-year-old will be making his return to Brooklyn for the first time since departing in 2016-17 in a trade to the Washington Wizards.

Brooklyn acquired Bogdanovic through the Mikal Bridges trade with the New York Knicks.

Pistons Unlikely To Trade Bojan Bogdanovic

Unless a team is ready to cough up their fortunes to secure the veteran forward, don’t expect the Detroit Pistons to move off of Bojan Bogdanovic.

According to James L. Edwards III, Detroit wants to keep their good players and has no plans of getting rid of good players because of the current situation they are in.

“Everything I’ve heard and continue to hear is that there are no plans to trade Bogdanovic unless Detroit gets an offer it can’t refuse,” wrote James L. Edwards III at The Athletic. “The Pistons want to be good and don’t want to trade good players, even if Bogdanovic’s role is reduced to a bench scorer next season.”

These reports have been consistent regarding Bogdanovic; Detroit will only move him if it means getting a massive payout from it. However, teams are not willing to give up significant assets to acquire him.

Reports came out that the Pistons wanted two first-rounders for Bogdanovic. While nothing has been confirmed, it appears Troy Weaver is keeping him beyond the deadline.

After trading for him before the 2022-23 season, they quickly locked him up to a two-year deal worth $39.1 million. The 34-year-old is not a free agent until 2025.

He is currently averaging 19.7 points (45.6 FG%), 3.5 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in 34.0 minutes per game.
