Claxton (knee) is expected to remain sidelined until shortly before the NBA's midseason break in early March, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

The NBA has only released the first part of the schedule for the regular season, as the Nets currently have no games on tap beyond March 3. Claxton has been sidelined since the season began due to knee tendinitis, but based on comments from head coach Steve Nash, the 21-year-old looks like he could be ready to make his 2020-21 debut at some point in mid-to-late February. Assuming the Nets don't find a way to acquire an extra big man in the next month, Claxton could see some reserve minutes at center behind starter DeAndre Jordan.
