Available Tuesday Thomas (back) is available for Tuesday's contest against the Hornets, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
Impact Thomas suffered a back contusion following an offensive foul with 4:22 remaining in the second quarter of Sunday's loss to the Celtics and was quickly ruled out for the rest of the game. However, the issue doesn't appear to be serious and won't cost him any extra games. The rookie's role is expected to be diminished significantly this week with the return of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving available for the Nets' next three games, but he should still be capable of providing a spark off the bench.

Joining team in Philly, won't play Head coach Steve Nash confirmed Simmons will rejoin the team in Philadelphia ahead of Thursday's matchup with the 76ers, though Simmons won't play in the game and remains without a...
Impact Simmons hasn't practiced since first experiencing back soreness a week and a half ago and is likely several more games away from making his team debut, but Nash believes that having the 25-year-old on the bench in what is expected to be a hostile atmosphere in Philadelphia will help him get one potential psychological hurdle out of the way despite not actually playing. The Nets aren't scheduled to practice again until Saturday, and though Simmons hasn't been ruled out from participating in that session in some capacity, Nash noted that Simmons won't immediately go into 5-on-5 drills. Instead, Simmons is expected to ramp up gradually for full-contact, full-court work while he looks to move past the back injury and regain conditioning after having not played all season.

Viewed as game-time call Head coach Steve Nash said Thomas (back) is considered a game-time decision ahead of Tuesday's tilt with the Hornets, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
Impact Officially listed as questionable on the NBA's injury report, Thomas apparently isn't at 100 percent after exiting Sunday's loss to the Celtics with a back contusion. The Nets will presumably evaluate Thomas during the afternoon before making a call on his status shortly before the game's 7 p.m. ET tipoff.

Out for two-game road trip Nets head coach Steve Nash said that Aldridge (hip) has returned to Brooklyn and will be out for road games Tuesday in Charlotte and Thursday in Philadelphia, Alex Schiffer of The...
Impact According to Brian Lewis of the New York Post, Aldridge is scheduled to undergo an MRI while he's back in New York, even though initial scans on his hip didn't reveal any structural damage. For the time being, Aldridge's injury is being characterized as an impingement of his right hip, the same one for which he required an arthroscopic procedure earlier in his career during his time in Portland. The Nets are likely to provide an update on Aldridge following the road trip, but for at least the next two games, Andre Drummond and Nicolas Claxton are expected to cover most of the minutes at center.
