Brooklyn Nets DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (hamstring) is questionable for Saturday's meeting with the 76ers. The 23-year-old missed over a month because of a hamstring strain. However, he has appeared in two games since returning, most recently amassing 24 points, seven rebounds, and two steals on Thursday against the Milwaukee Bucks. With Cameron Thomas (ankle) doubtful, the Nets may need more production from Ben Simmons, Nicolas Claxton, Jalen Wilson, and D'Angelo Russell, who has averaged 16.5 points, 10.0 assists, and 1.5 steals in two games since returning to Brooklyn.

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (ankle) is officially listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the 76ers. Johnson has had the best year of his career, most recently scoring 26 points and going 6-for-12 from deep in Thursday's narrow win over the Milwaukee Bucks. Unfortunately, he tweaked his ankle near the end of the contest, putting his availability versus Philadelphia in doubt. With Cameron Thomas (hamstring) questionable, everyone in the Nets' starting lineup could be in line for more production, although D'Angelo Russell, Nicolas Claxton, and Jalen Wilson may benefit the most from a statistical standpoint.

Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports that Brooklyn Nets forwardCameron Johnson(ankle) injured his right ankle during the closing seconds of Thursday's 113-110 victory over the Bucks. According to Lewis, Johnson's injury occurred while battling for a rebound with teammateZiaire Williams. Lewis also mentioned Johnson had X-rays and underwent imaging on the ankle, which came back negative. However, he left the arena on crutches, likely meaning he will be doubtful for Saturday's game against the 76ers. Keon Johnson could be in line for extra minutes if the 28-year-old is unavailable.

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Cam Thomas (hamstring) will be in the lineup on Thursday against Milwaukee. The talented scorer has just returned from a hamstring strain and sat out Wednesday's contest against Toronto for injury management purposes. Thomas made his comeback from a 13-game absence in a bench role on Sunday against Orlando. Still, he provided plenty to fantasy managers in 25 minutes, notching 25 points with six rebounds and five assists. The Bucks know all about Thomas' quality after giving up 32 points to the 23-year-old in a 115-102 loss on Oct. 27.

Brooklyn Nets guard Ziaire Williams (knee) has been sidelined for the last 12 games due to a left knee sprain, but he is not listed on the team's injury report for Thursday night against the Bucks. Williams hasn't played since December 1, so the 23-year-old may need some time to ramp up to a full workload, but the Nets could have available minutes on the wing after all their trades and roster shuffling. Noah Clowney (back) is also questionable for Thursday while Ben Simmons (injury management) is out, which could open up more time for Williams. After being traded from the Grizzlies to the Nets, Williams has averaged 8.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.1 assists, and 1.0 steals in 21.9 minutes over 21 games for the Nets. His return could eventually take time away from Keon Johnson and Tyrese Martin.
