Brooklyn Nets DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Brooklyn Nets center Day'Ron Sharpe (eye) will play on Sunday versus OKC. Sharpe was sidelined for over a month to begin the 2024-25 campaign because of a hamstring injury. However, since returning, he's only missed one game. The eye injury won't keep the 23-year-old off the floor, so that trend will continue on Sunday night. Sharpe has averaged a career-high 7.5 points with 6.3 rebounds and 1.5 steals this season. Unfortunately, he's not a reliable fantasy contributor. That likely won't change with Nicolas Claxton available.

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (ankle) will play on Sunday night versus OKC. The 28-year-old has been battling a sprained ankle, keeping him off the floor for seven of Brooklyn's previous eight contests. It's no secret the Nets are better with him in the lineup. However, Johnson could see fewer minutes than normal if the score gets out of control, with OKC entering the contest as the heavy favorite. Johnson's presence will likely result in Tyrese Martin heading back to the bench.

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (ankle) is currently listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Johnson has missed each of the last two games and is in danger of missing a third due to an ankle sprain. Luckily, fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried as this appears to be a day-to-day type of issue. If he sits, Ziaire Williams figures to remain in the starting five on Sunday. He put together a decent performance on Friday with 15 points, four rebounds, and three assists against the Los Angeles Lakers. Williams is worth a look as a low-end streaming choice if Johnson is unable to go on Sunday.

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Johnson sat out of Wednesday's contest, which was the second leg of a back-to-back set. He recently returned from a right ankle sprain, so his absence was likely rest related. The hope is that Johnson will be back in the mix for Friday's game. When healthy, Johnson has been a reliable fantasy contributor with 20 points scored or more in each of the last three games he's played in. Noah Clowney figures to see reduced playing time if Johnson is unable to go. Clowney has been an inconsistent fantasy option this season.

Brooklyn Nets guard D'Angelo Russell (shin) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Russell played 21 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's game after missing the previous four games. That being said, it appears the Nets are going to play it safe and rest Russell in the second leg of the back-to-back set. Keon Johnson and Ziaire Williams should both see increased roles on Wednesday. Also, Ben Simmons will likely do most of the ball handling which should increase his fantasy value.
