Clowney (wrist) won't play Sunday in Sacramento, according to Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com.
Clowney suffered a sprained right wrist in Wednesday's loss to OKC, and he was subsequently ruled out for Friday's game against New York. His next chance to suit up will be Monday in Portland. Without Clowney in the rotation, Ziaire Williams, averaging 11.4 points, 2.6 boards, 0.6 assists and 2.0 steals in eight starts this year, will presumably remain with the first five.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Ruled out for Friday
Rotowire
Clowney (wrist) won't play Friday versus the Knicks.
Clowney injured his wrist during Wednesday's loss to the Thunder and will now sit out Friday's game, which should open up minutes for Danny Wolf, Chaney Johnson and Josh Minott. Clowney's next chance to play will come Sunday in Sacramento, but with that game being the first of a back-to-back, he should be considered highly questionable for that one.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Good to go Wednesday
Rotowire
Clowney (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against Indiana, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
Clowney was previously considered probable due to a sprained left ankle, so his availability doesn't come as much of a surprise. With Michael Porter (knee) and Nic Claxton (hip) sidelined Wednesday, Clowney could take on a larger role offensively.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Drops 18 on Washington
Rotowire
Clowney amassed 18 points (5-10 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 27 minutes during Saturday's 127-113 victory over the Wizards.
It was Clowney's best scoring effort since Jan. 16, when he struck for 23 points against the Bulls. The third-year forward scored just six points total in his first two February games after returning from a lower-back issue, but Saturday's performance suggests he's nearly back to 100 percent.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Lackluster production in return
Rotowire
Clowney (back) tallied six points (3-7 FG, 0-4 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists in 21 minutes Tuesday in the Nets' 125-109 loss to the Lakers.
Clowney stepped back into a starting role Tuesday in his return from a five-game absence due to a lower back sprain, resulting in Terance Mann moving to the bench. The third-year forward struggled to make an impact during his time on the court and fell well short of his season-long average of 28.6 minutes per game, though he sat out the entire fourth quarter and likely would have played more had the Nets been more competitive. Expect Clowney's minutes to pick up in the Nets' next game Thursday in Orlando.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Flashes two-way upside in loss
Rotowire
Clowney recorded 15 points (5-14 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one block over 43 minutes during Friday's 130-126 double-overtime loss to the Celtics.
Clowney's final line reflects a subpar shooting night, but the plays he made down the stretch were very impactful. In the final minute of overtime, Clowney recorded a block at the rim, then sank a three in transition on the ensuing play that gave Brooklyn a lead before Hugo Gonzalez's game-tying shot; the sequence flashed the two-way potential that makes him particularly intriguing from a fantasy perspective. Clowney's upped his averages across the board compared to last season and should have plenty of chances to continue proving himself going forward.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Drops 23 points in win
Rotowire
Clowney accumulated 23 points (7-17 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 28 minutes during Friday's 112-109 win over Chicago.
Clowney tallied 23 points, which is the most he has scored in his past 17 games. While it has been a successful season for Clowney, his overall fantasy appeal remains limited to just a couple of categories, those being threes and blocks. Despite what could be considered a breakout of sorts, Clowney has barely been a top-200 player thus far, averaging 13.3 points, 0.8 blocks and 2.1 three-pointers in 28.5 minutes per game.

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
Clowney finished with eight points (2-13 FG, 0-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist and three steals in 28 minutes during Friday's 119-99 loss to Washington.
Clowney continued to struggle from the field, failing to score more than 13 points for the fifth straight game. In six appearances over the past two weeks, he has averaged 12.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.5 three-pointers and 2.1 combined steals and blocks, shooting a woeful 34.4 percent from the field and 66.7 percent from the line. While his shooting will almost certainly turn around at some point, his limited overall upside makes him a viable drop candidate in standard formats.

Rotowire
Clowney provided 11 points (3-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals in 25 minutes during Monday's 120-107 loss to the Warriors.
Clowney has cooled off recently, but his workloads remain sizable for the Nets. If he can find his rhythm again, he can quickly rebuild some momentum as a fantasy asset. Over his last five games, he's shooting 32.7 percent from the field with averages of 12.4 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.0 steals, 0.8 blocks and 1.8 three-pointers.
