Claxton notched 13 points (5-12 FG, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and five blocks over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 100-96 win over the 76ers. Claxton was a dominant presence on both ends of the court and recorded a double-double for the second time over his last three appearances. Scoring and rebounding aside, Claxton has been an elite rim-protecting presence in recent games and has notched multiple blocks in six of his last seven contests. Over that seven-game stretch, he's averaging 12.7 points, 6.9 rebounds and 3.1 blocks per contest.

Claxton (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the 76ers, Meghan Triplett of YES Network reports. Claxton was iffy to suit up Wednesday, but he'll play through an ankle sprain in the Nets' final outing prior to the All-Star break. The 25-year-old's matchup outlook is brightened by the absence of Joel Embiid (knee). Over his last six games, Claxton has averaged 12.7 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.8 blocks and 1.0 steals in 27.2 minutes.

Claxton is questionable for Wednesday's game against the 76ers with a right ankle sprain, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports. This appears to be a new injury for Claxton, and the Nets could exercise caution with this being the last game prior to the All-Star Break. If Claxton is held out Wednesday, guys like Trendon Watford and Jalen Wilson could step into larger roles for the Nets.

Claxton ended with 12 points (6-12 FG), 10 rebounds, one assist, four blocks and two steals across 31 minutes during Friday's 102-86 win over Miami. The double-double was Claxton's 10th of the season. He recorded multiple steals and blocks in the same game for the first time since Jan. 10. The 25-year-old center has rejected at least one shot in seven straight games, a stretch in which Claxton is averaging 11.3 points, 6.4 boards, 2.4 blocks, 1.7 assists and 0.9 steals while shooting 59.3 percent from the floor.

Claxton posted 12 points (4-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), eight rebounds, six blocks and one steal over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 104-83 win over the Hornets. Claxton recorded a season-high six blocked shots, helping the Nets to a rare victory. It's been a disappointing season for Claxton, averaging 9.7 points, 7.6 rebounds and 2.2 combined steals and blocks. However, with both Noah Clowney (ankle) and Day'Ron Sharpe (hamstring) now sidelined, he could be forced into more minutes, at least for the short-term.
