Day'Ron Sharpe
Day'Ron Sharpe posts 19/12/5/2/2 line as starter
Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 5:22 PM
Day'Ron Sharpe started on Wednesday and finished with 19 points (8-of-11 FGs), 12 rebounds, five assists, two steals and two blocks against the Pacers.
Analysis: With Nic Claxton (hip) sidelined for this game, Sharpe was able to start for the fourth time this season. He was able to match his season high for scoring and record a double-double while still contributing in other categories. If Claxton misses more time down the stretch, Sharpe will be a fantasy stud in an increased role. He's currently rostered in just 15 percent of Yahoo! leagues.

C.J. Holmes
Nolan Traore, Egor Demin, Terance Mann, Ziaire Williams and Day'Ron Sharpe against the Pacers on Wednesday.
Analysis: With Nic Claxton (hip) sidelined, Sharpe will get the starting nod at center. The other change to the starting unit will be Williams entering in place of Danny Wolf, who will be available off the bench. Sharpe should be in for a productive night.
Noah Clowney
Noah Clowney (ankle) now out vs. Indiana
Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 12:25 PM
Brian Lewis
Noah Clowney (ankle) is now out for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Initially declared available for Wednesday's game, Clowney experienced discomfort in his left ankle while going through with his pregame workout. So he won't be available, joining Nic Claxton on the sidelines. Ziaire Williams may move into the starting lineup, with Jalen Wilson in line to pick up additional minutes as well.

Noah Clowney (ankle) upgraded to available
Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 11:46 AM
NBA Injury Report
Noah Clowney (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Clowney was initially questionable for Wednesday's game, so the upgrade in status was expected. He will occupy his usual place within the Nets starting lineup.
Nic Claxton
Nic Claxton (hip) ruled out vs. Indiana
Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 11:46 AM
Brooklyn Nets
Nic Claxton (hip) has been ruled out against the Pacers on Wednesday.
Analysis: Claxton was downgraded to doubtful earlier in the day and now has officially been ruled out for this game. This will be his first absence in over a month, and he will likely be replaced in the starting lineup by Day'Ron Sharpe.
Nic Claxton
Claxton (hip) now doubtful Wednesday vs. Pacers
Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 5:58 AM
Nic Claxton (hip) was downgraded to doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Claxton popped up on the injury report as questionable with right hip soreness on Tuesday, but has since been downgraded to doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Pacers. With Claxton now unlikely to play, Day'Ron Sharpe is likely to start and is worth streaming.
Nic Claxton
Nic Claxton (hip) questionable vs. Indiana

Billy Reinhardt
Nic Claxton (hip) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Absent from the initial injury report released by the Nets, Claxton is now questionable with a sore right hip. If he's unable to play on Wednesday, Day'Ron Sharpe would be the next man up. And he is worth streaming when allowed to start.
Noah Clowney
Noah Clowney (ankle) probable vs. Indiana
Tue, Feb 10, 2026, 10:46 AM
NBA Injury Report
Noah Clowney (ankle) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Clowney, who scored 22 points in Monday's win over the Bulls, is dealing with a sprained left ankle. The good news is that he's listed as probable, so availability may not be an issue for the Nets forward. If Clowney can't play on Wednesday, that could be a spot where Josh Minott gets to make his Nets' debut as a reserve. Ziaire Williams, who has started games in the past, would figure more prominently in the rotation.
Michael Porter
Michael Porter Jr. (knee) to remain out vs. IND
Tue, Feb 10, 2026, 10:38 AM
NBA Injury Report
Michael Porter Jr. (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Porter will miss a second straight game due to right knee tendinitis. His absence means Danny Wolf should remain in the starting lineup after logging 26 minutes in Monday's win over the Nets. Given where the Nets are in the standings, Wolf is worth holding onto for the rest of the season.
Noah Clowney
Noah Clowney hits four triples, scores 22 points
Mon, Feb 9, 2026, 4:12 PM
Noah Clowney finished Monday's win over the Nets with 22 points (7-of-11 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), six rebounds, one block and four three-pointers.
Analysis: After scoring 18 points in Sunday's win over the Wizards, Clowney recorded his first 20-point game since a January 16 win over the Bulls. The Nets' forward/center has also made four three-pointers in consecutive games, the first time he's done that this season. Brooklyn is clearly focused on ending the season with the best draft lottery odds possible, but fantasy managers should not be too concerned about Clowney's minutes down the line.
Nic Claxton
Nic Claxton posts 28/10/4/1 line vs. Chicago
Mon, Feb 9, 2026, 4:11 PM
Nic Claxton produced 28 points (12-of-15 FGs, 3-of-6 FTs), 10 rebounds, four assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Monday's win over the Nets.
Analysis: Before Monday, Claxton had gone 21 straight games without a double-double, the longest dry spell of his NBA career. The Nets center ended that unfortunate streak against the Bulls, leading all players in points and rebounds. Over the past month, he's averaged 6.5 rebounds per game, which takes away from the value that fantasy managers in free-throw percentage punt builds usually gain from rostering him. The Nets complete the pre-break portion of their schedule on Wednesday against the Pacers, which could be another big night for Claxton.
Michael Porter
Michael Porter Jr. (knee) ruled out vs. Chicago
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 11:02 AM
Billy Reinhardt
Michael Porter Jr. (knee) is out for Monday's game against the Bulls.
Analysis: Due to right knee tendinitis, Porter will not play on Monday. Danny Wolf has been his replacement in the starting lineup when MPJ was unavailable in the past, and that's likely to be the case against the Bulls. If so, the rookie would be worth streaming in deep leagues.
Day'Ron Sharpe
Day'Ron Sharpe posts 19/9/4/2 line vs. WAS
Sat, Feb 7, 2026, 11:29 AM
Day'Ron Sharpe accounted for 19 points (9-of-11 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), nine rebounds, four assists and two steals in Saturday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: Sharpe continues to back up Nic Claxton (11 points, five rebounds and four assists in 28 minutes), but that didn't prevent him from recording a solid stat line on Saturday. The 6-foot-9 forward/center finished one rebound shy of a double-double, and fantasy managers can also benefit from the assists and steals. Getting ahead of the rush and adding Sharpe now instead of waiting for the silly season would not be a bad idea, especially with the minutes he's currently getting.
Michael Porter
Michael Porter Jr. scores 20 first-half points
Sat, Feb 7, 2026, 11:28 AM
Michael Porter Jr. finished Saturday's win over the Wizards with 23 points (8-of-16 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, three assists, one steal and three three-pointers.
Analysis: With the Nets' decision-makers hoping to land the best draft lottery odds possible, days like Saturday may become the norm for Porter. After putting up 20 points in the first half, his playing time decreased after halftime, and the veteran forward scored just three points. As evidenced by what he was able to do in the first two quarters, Porter doesn't need to log heavy minutes to provide value. However, the Nets' approach to his playing time could lower his ceiling. The Nets play five games in Week 17, with two before the All-Star break.
Josh Minott
Celtics trade Josh Minott to Brooklyn
Thu, Feb 5, 2026, 8:03 AM
Shams Charania
Josh Minott has been traded to the Nets.
Analysis: Minott had an excellent stretch early in the season for Boston, but he has been out of the rotation for a while now. He'll get a fresh start in Brooklyn, and the 23-year-old has already proven that he can be a fantasy commodity. He could be a sneaky grab for a rebuilding team, which could lead to strong production during silly season.
Hunter Tyson
Hunter Tyson being sent to Nets for pick
Thu, Feb 5, 2026, 7:58 AM
Shams Charania
Hunter Tyson has been traded along with a 2032 second-round pick to the Nets in exchange for the least favorable second-round pick between the Clippers and Hawks in 2026.
Analysis: The 2023 second-round pick was never able to carve out a role in Denver, so the Nuggets will move on to create an open roster spot. Tyson may get an opportunity to make an impact for Brooklyn during silly season, though his upside for fantasy managers will be limited.
Ochai Agbaji
Agbaji is out for Thursday's game vs ORL
Thu, Feb 5, 2026, 7:40 AM
Ochai Agbaji has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Magic.
Analysis: Agbaji was acquired from the Raptors on Wednesday, but the deal is still being finalized, so he will not suit up on Thursday. His next chance to make his Nets debut will be on Saturday against the Wizards. That should mean more minutes for Ziaire Williams and Ben Saraf on Thursday.
Ochai Agbaji
Brooklyn acquires Ochai Agbaji in multi-team deal
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 10:02 AM
Shams Charania
Ochai Agbaji has been traded to the Nets.
Analysis: Agbaji fell out of the rotation in Toronto, and now he'll get a fresh start in Brooklyn. The former lottery pick should fill out some minutes on the wing, which could alter Ziaire Williams' place in the rotation. Agbaji could end up making a large impact for fantasy managers during silly season, but he shouldn't be rostered at this point.
Cam Thomas
Cam Thomas (personal) ruled out vs. Orlando
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 9:39 AM
NBA Injury Report
Cam Thomas (personal) has been ruled out against the Magic on Thursday.
Analysis: Thomas has been playing a reserve role for Brooklyn recently, which has led to some decent scoring nights, though he hasn't popped. Drake Powell and Ben Saraf should take on extra minutes with Thomas unavailable.
Day'Ron Sharpe
Day'Ron Sharpe records 19/14/5/3 line vs. LAL
Tue, Feb 3, 2026, 4:55 PM
Day'Ron Sharpe finished Tuesday's loss to the Lakers with 19 points (9-of-12 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), 14 rebounds, five assists and three steals.
Analysis: While Nic Claxton (10 points, five rebounds and two assists in 22 minutes) will start whenever he's available, now may be the time for fantasy managers seeking “silly season” value to invest in Sharpe, if they haven't already. He recorded his third double-double of the season against the Lakers, recording season-highs in points and rebounds while also posting solid numbers in assists and steals. The Nets only play two more games in Week 16, but that should not deter deep-league managers from strongly considering Sharpe.
