Thomas closed with 10 points (3-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one block over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 104-103 overtime loss to the Magic.
Thomas had a tough time getting his shot to drop against Orlando's gritty defense, but on the plus side, this was the most minutes he's logged since coming back from the hamstring injury. He also added a block to his stat line Wednesday night, accounting for his second blocked shot of the season and the 35th of his career.

Nets' Egor Demin: Scores 18 points with full line
Rotowire
Demin chipped in 18 points (5-9 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 3-5 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 104-103 overtime loss to the Magic.
Demin was quiet for most of the game, but with just five seconds left in regulation, he drilled a huge triple to send the game to overtime. The late, three-point make was just his second bucket of the evening, but he caught fire during the overtime period and scored 10 of his 18 points during the final frame. The rookie has been in a nice rhythm over the past four games, flirting with top-75 numbers behind averages of 16.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 4.3 triples and 1.0 steals per game.

Nets' Nic Claxton: Claxton swats two shots off bench
Rotowire
Claxton provided seven points (3-4 FG, 1-4 FT), six rebounds and two blocks across 23 minutes during Wednesday's 104-103 overtime loss to Orlando.
Claxton's upside is muted in the reserve role, but head coach Jordi Fernandez said that Claxton's minutes restrictions would be lifted his next time out, so we'd expect him to return to the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Clippers. Day'Ron Sharpe finished with five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, five assists, two steals and five turnovers across 30 minutes in the one-point loss.

Rotowire
Porter tallied 34 points (12-24 FG, 8-18 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and three steals over 38 minutes during the Nets' 104-103 overtime loss to the Magic on Wednesday.
Porter came out firing with 12 points in the first quarter and tied a career high with eight three-pointers, but he failed to score any points in overtime. Wednesday's game marked the 10th 30-point game for Porter this season, and he has scored at least 20 points in 11 of his last 12 outings. Over that 12-game span, he has averaged 28.7 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 4.8 threes and 1.3 steals over 33.9 minutes per game.
Williams is part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Orlando.
Williams will join the first unit for Wednesday's game, swapping places with Terance Mann. It'll be Williams' fourth start of the season. As a starter, Williams is averaging 11.3 points, 2.7 rebounds and 2.3 steals across 25.3 minutes.

Nets' Terance Mann: Headed to bench
Rotowire
Mann will come off the bench for Wednesday's game versus the Magic.
Wednesday will mark the first time this season that Mann will be working with the second unit, but he should still see minutes in the mid-20s. Mann is averaging 8.0 points, 3.8 assists and 3.5 rebounds per game this season.

Nets' Nic Claxton: Will have minutes restriction
Rotowire
Claxton will have his minutes monitored for Wednesday's game versus the Magic, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Head coach Jordi Fernandez said that while he'll be watching Claxton's workload in his return from a two-game absence Wednesday, he doesn't anticipate Claxton having any restrictions for Friday's game against the Clippers. Even with a minutes restriction, Claxton is a must-play option in standard fantasy leagues.
Highsmith (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Magic.
Highsmith has yet to make his season debut as he recovers from right knee surgery he underwent in August. There remains no clear timetable for the 29-year-old forward's return to action, so he should be considered week-to-week until the Nets offer an update on his progress.

Rotowire
Saraf has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Magic due to left knee soreness.
Saraf was recalled from the G League by the Nets on Monday, but the rookie first-rounder will not be available for Wednesday's home tilt. He'll look to progress enough in his recovery to be available for Friday's game against the Clippers. He's bounced back and forth between the G League and NBA this season, averaging 5.4 points, 2.8 assists, 1.6 rebounds and 0.7 steals over 16.9 minutes per game in 12 regular-season outings (five starts) with the parent club.

Rotowire
Mann provided six points (2-5 FG, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, six assists, one block and two steals in 26 minutes during Sunday's 127-115 win over the Nuggets.
Mann filled up the box score Sunday, but he still hasn't scored at least 15 points since the Nov. 5 win over Indiana. The 29-year-old swingman continues to start for the Nets, though he has averaged a quiet 5.6 points, 4.1 assists, 3.4 rebounds, 0.9 blocks and 0.7 steals in 26.8 minutes per game over his last seven outings.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Scores efficient 22 points in win
Rotowire
Clowney provided 22 points (6-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block over 29 minutes during Sunday's 127-115 victory over the Nuggets.
Clowney submitted his first 20-point effort since the Dec. 4 loss to the Jazz. It's been a bumpy ride in 2025-26 for the 2023 first-rounder, who's hurting nine-category fantasy rosters significantly with his lack of efficiency. Clowney has averaged 12.7 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 blocks and 0.9 steals in his last 11 games, but he's shooting only 35.8 percent from the field during this span.

Rotowire
Sharpe notched 17 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals over 32 minutes during Sunday's 127-115 win over the Nuggets.
Sharpe made his second straight start, providing a full stat line to go with an efficient 17 points. The 2021 first-rounder is serving as Brooklyn's temporary starter at center while Nic Claxton tends to a personal matter, and Sharpe has flourished in his limited chances with the first unit since last season. Dating back to 2024-25, Sharpe has averaged 16.3 points, 11.5 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.5 blocks in 30.9 minutes per tilt over four games as a starter.

Porter notched his first block since early December during Sunday's win, and it was just his sixth blocked shot of the season. The sharpshooter has been in a nice rhythm over the past six games, flirting with top-15 value behind averages of 26.8 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 4.2 triples and 1.0 steals per contest.
Wolf will come off the bench in Sunday's game against Denver, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Wolf drew back-to-back starts due to the absences of Michael Porter (illness) and Nic Claxton (personal). With Porter back in action, though, Wolf will head back to the second unit. He's averaging 19.6 minutes per game this season.
