Nets' Drake Powell: Scores 10 points in blowout loss
Rotowire
Powell registered 10 points (3-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and one rebound over 23 minutes during Tuesday's 138-100 loss to the Pistons.
Powell reached double-digit points for the first time since Feb. 9. However, he's been mostly a bench option for a struggling Nets team, and his overall production hasn't stood out even when he's received more minutes. Thus, his fantasy upside should remain fairly low until further notice.

Nets' Danny Wolf: Comes close to double-double
Rotowire
Wolf racked up 13 points (2-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-9 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 28 minutes during Tuesday's 138-100 loss to the Pistons.
Wolf didn't have his best shooting performance, but making seven of his nine trips to the charity stripe allowed him to salvage his scoring output. The rookie out of Michigan also ended two boards shy of recording what would've been his first double-double since Jan. 11. Wolf has been trending in the right direction of late, and he's scored in double digits in six of his last eight games despite coming off the bench in all but one of those outings in that span.

Nets' Michael Porter: Scores 19 in blowout loss
Rotowire
Porter had 19 points (7-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 138-100 loss to Detroit.
Porter has been the Nets' best player this season, and while he had that title again Tuesday, he was slightly disappointing from a fantasy perspective. The star forward, who returned to the court after not playing in Monday's win over the Grizzlies, failed to reach the 20-point mark for the first time since March 3, when he was limited to nine points in a loss to the Heat. Still, Porter has scored at least 18 points in all but one of his last 10 appearances. He might not repeat the numbers he had in the first half of the campaign, but he should continue as the Nets' go-to option on offense, which should be enough to give him decent fantasy appeal every time he steps on the court.
Wolf won't start Tuesday's game against the Pistons.
With Michael Porter resting Monday, Wolf posted 14 points (5-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during a 126-115 victory over the Grizzlies. However, the rookie slides back to a bench role with the Nets' leading scorer returning Tuesday. Nonetheless, with Day'Ron Sharpe (thumb) and Ziaire Williams (illness) sidelined, Wolf should still see a solid role as a reserve.

Nets' Jalen Wilson: Sees 23 minutes in win
Rotowire
Wilson amassed six points (2-2 FG, 2-2 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 23 minutes during Monday's 126-115 victory over Memphis.
Wilson was a fresh addition to the rotation, essentially replacing Terance Mann. The Nets are in player-evaluation mode, and there's no telling whether this move will stick. Wilson is only worth monitoring in deeper formats.

Nets' Ziaire Williams: Out with illness
Rotowire
Williams (illness) won't play in Tuesday's game against the Pistons, per Brian Lewis of the New York Post.
Williams is under the weather for the second leg of this back-to-back set. His absence should allow rookies Ben Saraf and Drake Powell to be more involved in the backcourt Tuesday.

Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Won't play Tuesday
Rotowire
Sharpe won't play in Tuesday's game against Detroit due to a left thumb sprain, per Brian Lewis of the New York Post.
Sharpe is sitting out for the first time since the Jan. 19 loss to the Suns. Danny Wolf and Ochai Agbaji should both see more playing time in the frontcourt in the absence of Sharpe on Tuesday.

Nets' Michael Porter: Good to go Tuesday
Rotowire
Porter (rest) is available for Tuesday's game against the Pistons, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
After resting during Monday's win over Memphis, Porter will return to action Tuesday. Over his past 10 appearances, the sharpshooter is averaging 21.5 points, 7.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.1 steals in 31.5 minutes per game.

Nets' Terance Mann: Falls out of rotation Monday
Rotowire
Mann (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the Nets' 126-115 win over the Grizzlies.
After starting in each of the Nets' previous four games, Mann was moved to the bench Monday while Brooklyn installed Drake Powell on the top unit in his return from the G League. Even though the Nets were without Michael Porter (rest) for the front end of the back-to-back set, Mann ended up being left out of the rotation entirely, with Jalen Wilson instead playing 23 minutes off the bench after having been limited to nothing more than garbage-time run over the previous eight contests. Nets head coach Jordi Fernandez may have just been giving Mann some extra rest during the back-to-back set, so it's possible that the 29-year-old wing re-enters the rotation Tuesday versus the Pistons.
Traore produced 17 points (6-9 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, four assists and one block over 23 minutes during Monday's 126-115 win over the Grizzlies.
Traore got back on track, scoring double digits for the first time in his past three games. With Egor Demin (foot) ruled out for the remainder of the season, Traore should be able to maintain a starting spot moving forward. With that said, his production over the past month has been far from exemplary. In 14 games during that span, he has averaged 12.3 points, 5.1 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.1 three-pointers in 26.9 minutes per contest, leaving him outside the top 250 in standard fantasy formats.

Nets' Ochai Agbaji: Season-high 18 points in win
Rotowire
Agbaji closed with 18 points (8-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over 22 minutes during Monday's 126-115 win over Memphis.
Agbaji had his best game since arriving in Brooklyn, taking advantage of what was a favorable matchup. The 18 points represented a season-high for Agbaji, who to this point, has not even been an every-night part of the rotation for the Nets. We would need to see more of this before declaring him a viable standard league asset.

Nets' Danny Wolf: Flirts with double-double
Rotowire
Wolf contributed 14 points (5-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during Monday's 126-115 victory over the Grizzlies.
Wolf shifted into the starting lineup, replacing Michael Porter, who was given the night off for rest purposes. Wolf fell one rebound short of what would have been just the second double-double of his career, while also managing to add a pair of defensive stats. While this was an encouraging performance, it's hard to view him as anything more than a stream or stash guy, given the fact that his playing time is wildly unpredictable.
Mann is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Memphis.
Mann started the previous four contests but will slide to the bench Monday as Brooklyn rolls out a lineup of Nolan Traore, Drake Powell, Danny Wolf, Noah Clowney and Nic Claxton. In nine games as a reserve this season, Mann is averaging 6.6 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 18.2 minutes per contest.

Nets' Danny Wolf: Stepping into starting five
Rotowire
Wolf will start Monday's game against the Grizzlies, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
Wolf will enter the starting lineup with Michael Porter (rest) sidelined Monday. Wolf's last start dates back to Feb. 9 against the Bulls, when he finished with 13 points, six rebounds, two assists, two steals and three blocks in 26 minutes.

Nets' Drake Powell: Slated to start Monday
Rotowire
Powell is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Memphis.
Powell, who hasn't seen NBA action since Feb. 26, will slide into the starting lineup for Monday's home contest. The rookie has made seven starts this season, averaging 8.4 points, 2.0 assists and 1.6 rebounds across 24.7 minutes per contest in that role, with his most recent start coming Jan. 25.

Nets' Egor Demin: Won't play again this season
Rotowire
The Nets announced Monday that Demin (foot) will miss the rest of the season, NBA reporter Marc Stein reports.
Brooklyn has been managing Demin's workload since the preseason, as the guard has been dealing with plantar fasciitis in his left foot all year, and the team is proceeding with an abundance of caution to get the issue fully resolved. Demin will end his rookie campaign with averages of 10.3 points, 3.3 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 2.4 three-pointers in 25.2 minutes per contest through 52 regular-season games. With the rookie first-rounder's season finished, the Nets should turn to Nolan Traore and Ben Saraf to handle the bulk of the ball-handling duties to close out the season.

Nets' Ben Saraf: Available to play
Rotowire
Saraf (back) is available to play Monday against Memphis.
Saraf will shake off a probable tag for this contest. Over his last five games, he's averaging 4.6 points and 2.4 rebounds in 14.6 minutes.
