Nets' D'Angelo Russell: Upgraded to probable
Russell (hamstring) has been upgraded to probable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.
This is good news for a Brooklyn team that just ruled Ben Simmons (illness) out for Tuesday. Russell is therefore poised for a lot of usage against the Knicks. In six appearances with the Nets, Russell holds averages of 13.2 points, 8.0 assists, 3.2 rebounds, 1.7 steals and 1.8 three-pointers.

Nets' Ben Simmons: Ruled out Tuesday
Simmons (illness) will not play Tuesday against the Knicks.
Simmons was downgraded from probable to questionable Tuesday morning, before the Nets ultimately ruled him out. He doesn't play in both games of back-to-back sets, but because he's under the weather, he's not a lock to suit up Wednesday against the Suns.

Nets' Ben Simmons: Downgraded to questionable
The Nets downgraded Simmons (illness) from probable to questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.
Brooklyn is also listing fellow point guard D'Angelo Russell as questionable for Tuesday's contest due to left hamstring tightness injury management. The Nets will play the second leg of a back-to-back set Wednesday against the Suns, and the team may be keen on having at least one of Simmons or Russell available for that game. Even if Simmons ultimately gets the green light to play ahead of Tuesday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff, he would likely then sit out Wednesday's contest.

Nets' Cam Thomas: Won't play against New York
Thomas (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
Thomas has missed 23 of the Nets' last 25 games due to a left hamstring injury, which has led to more playing time for Keon Johnson and Tyrese Martin. It's unclear when exactly Thomas will return, but his next chance to play is Wednesday against the Suns.

Nets' Ben Simmons: Probable with illness
Simmons (illness) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
After being a late scratch ahead of Sunday's loss to the Thunder, Simmons is expected to play Tuesday. That said, the 28-year-old is likely to sit out against the Suns on Wednesday, as he's yet to appear in both ends of back-to-backs for the Nets in 2024-25. If Simmons doesn't play then, role players like Tyrese Martin, Jalen Wilson and Keon Johnson would be in line for more playing time.

Nets' Trendon Watford: Remains out for Tuesday
Watford (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
Watford hasn't played since Dec. 16 due to a strained left hamstring. His next opportunity to play will be Wednesday against Phoenix.

Nets' Ziaire Williams: Dealing with ankle sprain
Williams has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Knicks due to a left ankle sprain, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today rpeorts.
Williams has started in each of the Nets' last nine games, and over that span he has averaged 12.0 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.2 steals over 25.3 minutes per game. Williams' absence Tuesday opens the door for Keon Johnson or Jalen Wilson to enter Brooklyn's starting lineup. Williams' next opportunity to play will be Wednesday against the Suns.

Nets' D'Angelo Russell: Iffy for Tuesday
Russell is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks due to left hamstring tightness injury management, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
Russell started in the Nets' most recent game Sunday, finishing with nine points, seven assists, four rebounds and one steal over 24 minutes in a 127-101 loss to the Thunder. If Russell is able to play in the front end of a back-to-back set Tuesday, he could move back to the bench in the event Ben Simmons (illness) -- who is listed as probable -- is also available to play. Even if Russell gets the green light to play Tuesday, he could still be at risk of being rested in Wednesday's game against the Suns.

Nets' Tyrese Martin: Sinks three treys in Sunday's loss
Martin had 15 points (6-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt), six rebounds and two assists across 24 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 127-101 loss to the Thunder.
The 25-year-old wing continues to fill a significant role for the injury-plagued Nets. Martin has played at least 20 minutes in eight of the last nine games (three starts), draining at least one three-pointer in all nine appearances while averaging 11.6 points, 4.8 boards, 2.6 assists and 2.0 threes in 28.2 minutes.

Nets' D'Angelo Russell: Seven dimes in Sunday's start
Russell accumulated nine points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 127-101 loss to the Thunder.
With Ben Simmons (illness) unavailable, Russell shifted back into the starting five and led the Nets in assists, although he made little scoring impact of his own. The veteran guard is averaging 13.2 points, 8.0 assists, 3.2 boards, 1.8 threes and 1.7 minutes over 23.2 minutes in his six appearances (three starts) for Brooklyn since being shipped east in a late December trade with the Lakers.

Nets' Cameron Johnson: Hits for 15 in return
Johnson logged 15 points (6-11 FG, 3-8 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes during Sunday's 127-101 loss to the Thunder.
Suiting up after a two-game absence, Johnson tied Tyrese Martin for the Nets' scoring lead on a night when the team found itself in a 20-point hole by the end of the first quarter. If Johnson can stay healthy, he should see a bigger workload soon enough, but he's been on the court for only four of Brooklyn's 11 games in January so far due to right ankle trouble.

Johnson was tabbed as a game-time call for Sunday, but the forward will suit up and return from a two-game absence. Johnson, who has been limited to just three appearances in January, should handle his regular workload as one of the Nets' primary weapons on offense in his return to the hardwood.
