Ben Saraf News, Rumors, Updates - Brooklyn Nets

Bounces back in defeat Saraf supplied 12 points (4-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 17 minutes during Wednesday's 115-110 loss to the Pacers.

Impact After scoring three points on 1-of-6 shooting from the field in Monday's win over Chicago, Saraf bounced back on the offensive end Wednesday. The rookie first-rounder was one of six Brooklyn players to score in double figures, marking just the second time over his last 10 outings that he has reached double digits. Saraf has spent a considerable amount of time with the G League's Long Island Nets this season but has appeared in each of Brooklyn's last 10 games. With the club near the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings, he may continue to see increased playing time as Brooklyn prioritizes its youth movement.

Impact Saraf was recalled from the G League by the Nets on Monday, but the rookie first-rounder will not be available for Wednesday's home tilt.

He's bounced back and forth between the G League and NBA this season, and in 12 games (five starts) with Brooklyn he is averaging 5.4 points, 2.8 assists, 1.6 rebounds and 0.7 steals over 16.9 minutes per game.

Assigned to G League Saraf has been assigned to the Long Island Nets of the G League on Monday.

Impact Saraf has been dealing with an illness that held him out of Brooklyn's last two games, and now will spend some time with the Nets' G League affiliate, assuming he is healthy enough to play. In 12 games this season, Saraf averages 5.4 points, 1.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 0.7 steals, 0.3 blocks and 0.8 threes across 16.8 minutes.

DECEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Sunday Saraf (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Milwaukee.

Impact Saraf has been battling an illness lately, and he'll be unavailable for Brooklyn on Sunday night. The rookie guard has bounced in and out of the rotation for the Nets this season, and his absence could open up a few more minutes for Nolan Traore. Saraf's next chance to play will come Thursday against Miami.

DECEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Assigned to G League Brooklyn assigned Saraf to the G League's Long Island Nets on Monday.

Impact With Brooklyn off until Dec. 12, Saraf and Drake Powell will head to Long Island for a quick stint in order to get some live reps.

DECEMBER 8, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Totals season high 12 points Saraf provided 12 points (4-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals across 24 minutes during Thursday's 123-110 loss to Utah.

Impact Saraf has carved out a role off Brooklyn's bench over the past four games after missing roughly two weeks due to a left ankle sprain. The results have been up and down for the rookie guard, as he set a season high in points Thursday against the Jazz but also committed a team-high five turnovers. He's averaging 8.8 points, 3.3 assists, 1.5 steals, and 1.3 rebounds in 21.5 minutes per game during that four-game span.

DECEMBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Logs seven assists in loss Saraf recorded 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt), seven assists and one block across 29 minutes in Saturday's 116-99 loss to the Bucks.

Impact Saraf missed about two weeks of action due to a left ankle sprain before being cleared to return ahead of Friday's 115-103 loss to the 76ers. He didn't crack the rotation for that contest, but with Egor Demin (foot) sitting out Saturday's game, Saraf was able to pick up some major minutes in his first appearance for the Nets since Nov. 11. Though he came through with an efficient showing from the field while logging a team-high assist total, Saraf could nonetheless find himself back outside of the rotation if Demin returns for Brooklyn's next game Monday versus the Hornets.

NOVEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Available to play Saraf (ankle) will be available for Friday's game against the 76ers, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact Saraf, who hasn't played for the Nets since Nov. 11, could find himself in the rotation Friday with the team shorthanded due to injuries. He's only worth monitoring in very deep formats for now.

NOVEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Upgraded to questionable Saraf (ankle) has been upgraded to questionable ahead of Friday's game against the 76ers, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.

Impact Saraf hasn't played for the Nets since Nov. 11, when he scored two points across two minutes off the bench in a 119-109 loss. The questionable tag suggests a decision on Saraf's status will be made closer to Friday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff, but even if he's upgraded, he's not expected to play a big role for Brooklyn.
