Overview

  • Bojan Bogdanovic, a veteran forward for the Brooklyn Nets, will undergo season-ending surgery on his left foot, his second surgery on the same foot in less than a year.
  • Bogdanovic last played in April 2024 during the New York Knicks' first-round playoff series against the Philadelphia 76ers, where he sustained the initial injury.
  • The 35-year-old was traded to the Nets in July 2024 as part of the deal that sent Mikal Bridges to the Knicks, but he has not appeared in a game for Brooklyn since joining the team.
  • The injury eliminates the possibility of Bogdanovic being a buyout candidate before the March 1 deadline, which could have opened a roster spot and provided some financial flexibility for the Nets.
  • Across his 11-season NBA career with six teams, Bogdanovic has averaged 15.6 points, 3.6 assists, and 3.0 rebounds per game, with strong shooting percentages both from the field and beyond the arc.
