Nets' Noah Clowney: Comes close to double-double
Clowney had 11 points (3-10 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds and one assist over 37 minutes during Thursday's 101-94 win over the Raptors.
Clowney scored in double digits for the fifth time this season and came close to a double-double after grabbing nine rebounds, a season-high mark for him. He also logged a season-high 37 minutes in this win, and he seems to be trending in the right direction after missing seven games between Nov. 25 and Dec. 8 due to an ankle injury. Clowney appears to have replaced Trendon Watford in the rotation, so he should continue to see regular minutes going forward.

Nets' Cameron Johnson: Explodes for 33 points Thursday
Johnson finished Thursday's 101-94 win over the Raptors with 33 points (9-15 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 11-12 FT), 10 rebounds, six assists and two blocks in 34 minutes.
Johnson has been playing at a high level in recent weeks, and he reached the 30-point mark for the first time since scoring a season-high 37 points in the Nov. 22 loss to the 76ers. Johnson has reached the 20-point mark in five of his last six appearances, averaging 24.2 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game in that stretch.

Nets' Ben Simmons: Stuffs stat sheet Thursday
Simmons supplied 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-3 FT), five rebounds and seven assists over 32 minutes during Thursday's 101-94 victory over Toronto.
Simmons stuffed the stat sheet for the second game in a row, and he's been very efficient while leaving his mark on both ends of the court. The veteran has made 15 starts for Brooklyn this season, averaging 6.3 points, 5.9 rebounds, 6.3 assists and a combined 1.2 steals-plus-blocks per game in those games. With Dennis Schroder now in Golden State, Simmons will operate as the Nets' starting point guard moving forward.

Nets' Nic Claxton: Ejected Thursday
Claxton was ejected with 8:46 remaining in the second quarter of Thursday's game against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports. He'll finish the game with seven points (3-5 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and one block across 11 minutes.
Claxton was tossed from the game for throwing a ball in the stands after he was intentionally fouled on a drive to the basket. Day'Ron Sharpe and Noah Clowney will likely pick up the slack the rest of the way.

Nets' Ziaire Williams: Progressing in recovery
The Nets announced Thursday that Williams (knee) has progressed to on-court contract workouts with coaches and is expected to be integrated into team activities within the next week, Meghan Triplett of YES Network reports.
Williams has missed Brooklyn's last five contests due to a left knee sprain. While the 23-year-old forward appears to be nearing a return to action, he will likely have to participate in a full-contact practice before seeing any game action.

Nets' Trendon Watford: Out at least another week
The Nets announced Thursday that Watford has been diagnosed with a left hamstring strain and his status will be updated in approximately one week, Meghan Triplett of YES Network reports.
Watford already missed 13 games early in the season due to a left hamstring strain and appears to have aggravated the injury. Until Watford is able to return to action, Day'Ron Sharpe and Noah Clowney are candidates to receive increased playing time.

Nets' Cam Thomas: Will be evaluated this weekend
Thomas (hamstring) is progressing well in his recovery and will be re-evaluated this weekend, Meghan Triplett of YES Network reports.
Thomas has missed Brooklyn's last eight games due to a left hamstring strain and will remain sidelined Thursday. Keon Johnson will likely continue to start in his absence. While Thomas will be re-evaluated this weekend, it seems unlikely he will suit up for Saturday's matchup with Utah.

Nets' Ziaire Williams: Limited to shooting
Williams (knee) has been limited to shooting at practice, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
Williams has yet to be cleared for contact, but coach Jordi Fernandez said the forward is progressing well. Whether or not he's ready in time for Saturday's game against the Jazz remains to be seen. Keon Johnson will likely see an uptick in minutes in the meantime.

Nets' Cam Thomas: Not cleared for contact yet
Thomas (hamstring) hasn't been cleared for contact yet, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
Nets coach Jordi Fernandez said Thomas is progressing well, but he's been mostly limited to shooting. He's due to be re-evaluated soon, but he won't be cleared in time for Thursday's game against the Raptors.

Nets' Trendon Watford: Won't play Thursday
Watford (hamstring) will not play Thursday against the Raptors, Meghan Triplett of YES Network reports.
Watford is considered day-to-day with soreness in his left hamstring. He did not play in the second half of Monday's loss to Cleveland, but it's unclear if he'll be ready in time for Saturday's game against the Jazz. Jalen Wilson and Noah Clowney could see a bump in minutes in the meantime.

Nets' Jalen Wilson: Sinks four triples in loss
Wilson totaled 13 points (4-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, two assists and two steals over 29 minutes during Monday's 130-101 loss to the Cavaliers.
Over the last two games, Wilson has totaled 28 points, six assists, three rebounds, four steals and seven made three-pointers. With Dennis Schroder in Golden State and Cam Thomas (hamstring), Ziaire Williams (knee) and Bojan Bogdanovic (foot) all out, Wilson has a clear path to heavy minutes, even if he continues to operate off the bench.

Nets' Nic Claxton: Plays only 22 minutes
Claxton totaled eight points (4-7 FG), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 22 minutes during Monday's 130-101 loss to Cleveland.
After scoring in double figures and grabbing at least eight rebounds in three straight games, Claxton has failed to reach either of those plateaus in two consecutive contests. His 22 minutes played tied his fewest since Oct. 25. Since moving into the starting lineup to begin December, Claxton has averaged 12.2 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks in 26.7 minutes across six games, but he's certainly trending in the wrong direction after his latest performances.

Nets' Shake Milton: Could see larger role
Milton supplied five points (2-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt), five rebounds and one assist over 17 minutes before fouling out of Monday's 130-101 loss to the Cavaliers.
With Dennis Schroder now in Los Angeles, Milton moves up the depth chart by default and will have the opportunity to lock down the backup point guard minutes. He's played well in a limited role so far this season, hitting 45.5 percent from the field and 40.0 percent from beyond the arc with averages of 6.2 points, 2.0 assists, 1.8 rebounds, 0.5 steals and 0.9 three-pointers in 16.4 minutes per contest.

Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Solid showing in Monday's loss
Sharpe finished with 15 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and three steals in 20 minutes off the bench during Monday's 130-101 loss to Cleveland.
The backup center produced his best game yet since making a belated season debut Dec. 2 due to a hamstring injury he suffered in training camp. The Nets are in sell mode and may try to find a taker for Nic Claxton's contract, which runs through 2027-28. If he does get moved, Sharpe -- who is in the final year of his rookie deal and will be a restricted free agent this offseason -- could see his fantasy value soar in a starting role.
