Starting Tuesday Aldridge will start Tuesday's matchup against the Raptors, Chris Milholen of NetsDaily.com reports.
Impact With Andre Drummond (knee) resting a sore knee, Aldridge joins the starting five at center, marking the Nets' 35th different starting lineup this season. As a starter this year, he's averaging 14.6 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in 27.9 minutes.

Cleared to play Tuesday Thomas (hand) will be available for Tuesday's contest against the Raptors, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
Impact Thomas presumably injured his non-shooting hand at some point during Monday's blowout loss to the Raptors, and despite being listed as questionable, the young flamethrower will be available for the second half of the back-to-back. Across 13 appearances in February, Thomas averaged 16.5 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 26.6 minutes per game.

Won't play Tuesday Drummond (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against the Raptors, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
Impact Drummond suffered the knee injury after a hard fall during Monday's blowout loss to the Raptors. He was able to return to the contest, though he only managed three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block in 16 minutes. The issue doesn't appear to be too serious, but he'll miss at least one additional contest. His next chance to suit up will be Thursday against the Heat.

Another solid all-around line Brown produced 14 points (5-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 24 minutes in Tuesday's 133-97 loss to the Raptors.
Impact Brown has been an under-the-radar fantasy asset over the past three weeks while the Nets have been without Kevin Durant (knee) and Ben Simmons (conditioning/back) for that entire stretch and Kyrie Irving for a good portion of it. In seven games since entering the starting five, Brown has received no fewer than 24 minutes each time out while averaging 13.3 points (on 50.8 percent shooting from the field), 5.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.1 triples per contest. Brown should again be in store for an expanded role in Tuesday's rematch with the Raptors, though he could see a downturn in his opportunities as soon as Thursday's game against the Heat, when Durant could be ready to put an end to his extended absence.

Dealing with hand injury Thomas is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Raptors with a sprained left hand, Billy Reinhardt of NetsDaily.com reports.
Impact Thomas finished with 14 points (4-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes during Monday's blowout loss to the Raptors, but he presumably picked up an injury to his non-shooting hand at some point during the contest. If he's sidelined for the second half of the back-to-back set, Bruce Brown, Patty Mills and Kessler Edwards are all likely candidates for increased roles.

Questionable for Tuesday Drummond (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Raptors, Billy Reinhardt of NetsDaily.com reports.
Impact Drummond limped to the bench after falling hard on his knee during Monday's loss to Toronto, but he was able to return to the contest and finished with three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block in 16 minutes. While he's listed as questionable, Chris Milholen of NetsDaily.com reports that the big man is hoping to suit up for the second half of the back-to-back Tuesday. Regardless, fantasy managers should still monitor his status all the way up until the 7:30 PM ET tip.

Shooting woes continue Monday Mills ended Monday's 133-97 loss to the Raptors with three points (1-8 FG, 1-6 3Pt), one rebound and three assists in 20 minutes.
Impact Mills moved back into the starting lineup but turned in one of his worst performances of the season. After a hot start to his post-Spurs career, Mills has cooled significantly of late. Charged with a heftier role than originally anticipated, it is likely that Mills is simply running on fumes at this point. The sooner the team can get their full squad on the floor, the better for Mills. While he can still have some streaming value, it is hard to trust Mills right now, and we would need to see an uptick in production before recommending him in 12-team leagues.

Back in rotation Monday Claxton accumulated two points (1-2 FG, 0-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block over 12 minutes during Monday's 133-97 loss to the Raptors.
Impact Claxton was back in the rotation Monday but saw action only during the fourth quarter with the Nets already waiving the white flag. Despite a couple of bright moments this season, Claxton has been a disappointment when it comes to fantasy value. The recent arrival of Andre Drummond only complicated things further and so for now, Claxton can be ignored in all standard leagues.

Scores 15 points in blowout loss Aldridge posted 15 points (5-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block across 20 minutes during Monday's 133-97 loss to Toronto.
Impact Aldridge logged 20 minutes off the bench, turning in what was actually a decent fantasy line, especially given the end result. With Andre Drummond arriving in Brooklyn, Aldridge has been relegated to a backup role, limiting his opportunities. The veteran has been a fringe 12-team asset all season long, but given his current trajectory, he is better suited to deeper formats moving forward.
