Dennis Smith Jr. Will Return On Friday Against Nuggets
11 months agoBrooklyn Nets guard Dennis Smith Jr. (back) missed the last seven games due to an upper back sprain but he confirmed before tip-off that he would be available to play on Friday night. While Smith has been out, the Nets have lacked a reserve for their backcourt. They've had bigger lineups with Day'Ron Sharpe, Trendon Watford, Jalen Wilson, and Harry Giles all getting minutes. Smith was seeing around 20 minutes a night off of the bench when healthy, so his role should return to around the same. His value comes to fruition more in deeper leagues since he's a bit inconsistent and his minutes fluctuate.
