Won't play Tuesday Simmons has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets due to lower back injury management, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Impact Tuesday is the first half of a back-to-back set, so Simmons is likely just getting a night off for precautionary reasons. Nic Claxton is the obvious candidate to replace Simmons in the starting lineup, but the former has been on a minute restriction to start the season following a hamstring injury during training camp. Ziaire Williams, Jalen Wilson, Keon Johnson and Shake Milton are also candidates for slightly more minutes in Simmons' absence.

Double-double off bench Claxton supplied 10 points (5-6 FG), 11 rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 22 minutes during Sunday's 115-102 win over the Bucks.
Impact Head coach Jordi Fernandez told reporters before Sunday's game that Claxton would see more playing time than he did over the first two games of the regular season. Claxton's 22 minutes were only two more than Friday's game against the Magic, but the 25-year-old center was productive during his on-court time and he registered his first double-double of the season. Claxton should serve as the Nets' first big man off the bench while Day'Ron Sharpe (hamstring) is sidelined.

Schroder has logged at least six assists in each of the first three games of the regular season, and over that span he's averaging 20.7 points on 46.5 percent shooting, 6.3 assists, 2.7 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 33.7 minutes per game.
