Brooklyn Nets DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Brooklyn Nets forward Ziaire Williams (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. Williams has played in 10 straight games, but he appears to have picked up an ankle injury during Sunday's contest. As a result, Williams will sit out on Tuesday, but hopefully it'll only be a one-game absence for Williams. His absence should mean that Keon Johnson and Jalen Wilson see increased minutes in the rotation. Wilson should move into the starting five for at least one game which should give him increased streaming appeal for Tuesday's slate.

Brooklyn Nets guard D'Angelo Russell (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. Russell looked fine during Sunday's game where he finished with nine points, four rebounds, and seven assists in 23 minutes of action. Possibly, Russell sits out on Tuesday for rest purposes or injury management. If he sits, Keon Johnson and Jalen Wilson figure to see increased roles in the rotation. Wilson is coming off a 15-point outing, but normally Johnson is the most consistent streaming option between the two.

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.
