Nets' Dorian Finney-Smith: Leads Brooklyn in scoring Friday
Rotowire
Finney-Smith accumulated 19 points (5-8 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals over 30 minutes during Friday's 135-119 loss to the Grizzlies.
Finney-Smith is making his presence felt on both ends of the court for the Nets, and the veteran forward filled the stat sheet in this contest while also leading the team in scoring. Even though Finney-Smith has missed six of the Nets' last 10 games, he should continue to have decent fantasy upside as long as he remains healthy. The nine-year veteran has logged 17 appearances with the Nets in 2024-25, averaging a career-high 11.1 points while also adding 4.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.0 steals across 29.2 minutes per game.

Nets' Dorian Finney-Smith: Clears 30 minutes in return
Rotowire
Finney-Smith (ankle) finished with nine points (3-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one steal across 31 minutes in Sunday's 118-113 loss to the Bucks.
Finney-Smith faced no restrictions in his return from a four-game absence due to a left ankle sprain, as he took back his spot in the starting five and exceeded his season-long average of 29.1 minutes per game. He paid off for those who streamed him for three-pointers, but Finney-Smith offered little else across the stat sheet. While Finney-Smith should continue to get ample playing time moving forward now that he's healthy again, his low-usage game limits his overall fantasy appeal.
