2025 Fantasy Outlook
After dominating the Ivy League during a breakout sophomore campaign, Wolf transferred to Michigan for his junior year and continued to impress. With a seven-foot frame, Wolf's offensive instincts and creativity are exceptional, but the big question is whether he'll be efficient enough to be effective at the NBA level. The Nets had five first-round picks in 2025 and used their final one to select Wolf at 27 overall. Brooklyn's offense will run through Cam Thomas and Michael Porter, but the rest of the roster remains a mystery. Wolf, along with fellow rookies Egor Demin, Nolan Traore, Drake Powell and Ben Saraf, will presumably get developmental minutes eventually, but it's unlikely all five are part of the rotation on Opening Night. Nic Claxton will start at center, with returning players Day'Ron Sharpe, Drew Timme and Noah Clowney likely ahead of Wolf on the depth chart due to their familiarity with the organization. Wolf's game could be ideal for fantasy hoops, but without a guaranteed role, he's likely only a stash option on draft day. Read Past Outlooks

Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

With a strong high school career, Danny Wolf was a McDonald's All-American Game nominee and a three-star recruit. In 2023, he earned a silver medal playing for Israel during the U20 Euro Championship A and was named to the All-Tournament Team behind 17.7 points, 12.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.3 blocks. Wolf played his first two collegiate seasons at Yale, having a breakout sophomore campaign. That year. He was named to the All-Ivy First Team and was the Ivy League Tournament Most Outstanding Player. Wolf then transferred to Michigan for his junior campaign, where he averaged 13.2 points, 9.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 blocks on 50/34/59 shooting splits. He was named to the All-Big Ten Second Team and Big Ten All-Tournament Team. Wolf has interesting versatility with his 7-foot frame, able to dribble and pass in the halfcourt and in transition. He also makes up in footwork and physicality what he lacks in athleticism. His jumpshot can come and go, but his touch is good enough to be a strong baseline for further development. Wolf has shown enough in most aspects of the game to play both on and off the ball. Wolf may be able to take on some secondary playmaking responsibility at the NBA level and potentially act as a sixth man in the frontcourt, especially if he becomes a strong stand-still 3-point shooter. There are shades of Alperen Sengun and Kelly Olynyk in Wolf's game, though he likely won't be as post-centric as those players.

Solid performance in win
FBrooklyn Nets
October 5, 2025
Wolf logged five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and five assists in 14 minutes during Saturday's 123-88 exhibition win over Hapoel Jerusalem.
ANALYSIS
Wolf contributed a well-rounded performance in limited action Saturday, leading the second unit in assists and adding five points and five boards. The 27th overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft faces plenty of competition for a spot in the frontcourt rotation, but his unique combination of size and playmaking ability could offer him a path to a sizable role.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Fernandez discusses his fit
FBrooklyn Nets
October 1, 2025
Brooklyn head coach said Tuesday that he doesn't want to put Wolf in a box in terms of his position on the floor, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
"I see him as a basketball player," Fernandez said. "He's a player that can play-make, big, capable shooter." The Nets seem set at center with Nicolas Claxton and Day'Ron Sharpe, so Phillips-Keaton notes that Wolf could be used as the backup power forward at times behind Noah Clowney. That being said, Fernandez made it clear that if Wolf steps up, he could leapfrog any of the aforementioned players. "He's done a great job and I'm excited to watch him play real games and the preseason and leading into the NBA season," Fernandez concluded.
