Dennis Smith Jr. Misses Another Game On Wednesday
1 year agoBrooklyn Nets point guard Dennis Smith Jr. (back) will be on the shelf for a second consecutive game Wednesday versus Atlanta. The 25-year-old has sprained his lower back, leaving Brooklyn without another backcourt option. Smith Jr.'s absence on Sunday versus Philadelphia resulted in Lonnie Walker IV surpassing the 30-minute mark for the first time this season. He's been in impressive form off the Brooklyn bench and heads into Wednesday's encounter with very good momentum, having dropped 20-plus points in back-to-back games.
