Yuta Watanabe Won't Play Against The Clippers
2 years agoBrooklyn Nets guard Yuta Watanabe (ankle) is out for Saturday's meeting with the Clippers. The 28-year-old tweaked his ankle during Monday's meeting with Dallas and didn't suit up for the next game against the Knicks. Watanabe has benefited from Kyrie Irving's (suspension) absence and has averaged 5.6 points and 2.4 rebounds while shooting an impressive 54.5% from behind the arc. There's also a good chance he won't play on Sunday against the Lakers. However, with Seth Curry, Ben Simmons, and Joe Harris getting more action, Watanabe likely wouldn't have played much.
