Nicolas Claxton Still Out Against Boston
1 year agoBrooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (ankle) won't play on Saturday against the Celtics. The 24-year-old appears to be nearing a return, so fantasy managers may see him back in the lineup soon, possibly as early as Monday's showdown with the Milwaukee Bucks. But in the meantime, Ben Simmons (rest) will get the night off, meaning Dorian Finney-Smith, averaging 15.4 points while shooting 50.0% from deep this season, may handle things in the middle. Day'Ron Sharpe could also see more work on Saturday, although he should be labeled a risky, high-upside speculative option in any fantasy format.
