Nets Video Breakdown: What Caris LeVert Brings to Brooklyn

Caris LeVert’s extended absence has had a profound impact on the Nets. With his return to Toronto less than 24 hours away, let’s take a look at what he’ll bring back to the team.

Boy oh boy have the Nets missed Caris LeVert.

Here's a look at some of what he's produced already this season, and will bring back to the team. (@TheJManJBT)

The Nets have sorely missed another guy who can capably create his own shot off the dribble.

LeVert hasn't had an amazing season on the defensive end but he's always a threat to create something out of nothing on that side of the floor.

Here he forces the steal and uses his speed and athleticism for the dunk in the fastbreak. pic.twitter.com/tfXkec8gY4

LeVert has an embedded chemistry and understanding with Allen in the pick and roll.

He could help jolt the big man back into some form. pic.twitter.com/zQFRw7rs4j

LeVert has shot a very respectable 36.1% from the perimeter this season. pic.twitter.com/4KR0f8yQGy

His passing will no doubt add a new wrinkle to an often stagnant Nets offense. pic.twitter.com/dXuNEKjS6U

His mid-range shot gives him some added diversity to his game. The ability to stop on a dime at spot and hit the smooth jumper shows real skill. pic.twitter.com/HxRc3bou4F

He's a sensational driver with his shifty handle and footwork combined with his improved strength. pic.twitter.com/0KKlzpg3qM

It's gonna be exciting to have Spencer and Caris back on the floor together.

Will be interesting to see how Kenny uses him in his first game back. pic.twitter.com/RlA8a7JUzt

It certainly won't hurt having another player who can feed the big guys 'oops. pic.twitter.com/d5ASyoKsxP
