GAME LOG

Nic Claxton - Near double-double in reserve role Claxton contributed 12 points (6-8 FG), nine rebounds, two assists and one steal across 24 minutes during Friday's 120-112 victory over the Bulls.
Impact Claxton returned from a one-game absence Friday due to a hamstring injury, and he finished the game as the Nets' leading rebounder and third-leading scorer behind Cam Thomas (32) and Cameron Johnson (14). Claxton will continue to be the first big man off the bench for the Nets, but he could be inserted into the starting five if Ben Simmons is sidelined for games while managing his back injury.

Ben Simmons - Iffy for Sunday Simmons is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Pistons due to lower back injury management, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Impact Simmons sat out the first leg of a back-to-back earlier this season, so it wouldn't be surprising for him to miss Sunday's contest. If Simmons is ultimately ruled out against Detroit, Nic Claxton and Noah Clowney would be candidates to receive increased playing time.

Trendon Watford - Another absence coming Watford (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game versus the Pistons, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Impact Watford was initially set to make his season Saturday but will now remain sidelined against Detroit while recovering from a left hamstring strain. His next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Memphis.

Cam Thomas - Stay hot in win over Chicago Thomas racked up 32 points (11-23 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 6-7 FT), four assists and one steal across 32 minutes during Friday's 120-112 win over the Bulls.
Impact Thomas scored at least 30 points for the third time in six games. The fourth-year guard is currently ninth in the league in scoring with 28.2 points per game and is well on his way to a career-best campaign if he stays healthy. Thomas averaged 22.5 points per game across 66 regular-season appearances last season.

Nic Claxton - Still coming off bench Claxton isn't in the starting five for Friday's game versus the Bulls, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
Impact While Claxton is available for Friday's contest, Ben Simmons will draw another start at center. The Nets are playing it cautiously with Claxton's hamstring injury, but he should return to the starting five soon.

Nic Claxton - Good to go against Chicago Claxton (hamstring) is available for Friday's game versus the Bulls, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Impact Claxton will return to action Friday after sitting out the second leg of Brooklyn's back-to-back. While the 25-year-old big man is expected to re-enter the starting lineup soon, it is unclear if that will come against Chicago.

Bojan Bogdanovic - Won't play Friday Bogdanovic (foot) is out for Friday's game versus the Bulls, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Impact Bogdanovic has yet to suit up this season while recovering from left foot surgery. The veteran forward's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Detroit.

Trendon Watford - Expected to play against Chicago Watford (hamstring) is listed as probable for Friday's game versus the Bulls, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
Impact Watford is expected to make his season debut Friday while recovering from a left hamstring strain. However, even when available, Watford is only likely to receive depth minutes in Brooklyn's frontcourt.

Ziaire Williams - Impressive off bench Wednesday Williams registered 17 points (6-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), one rebound, three assists, one block and four steals over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 119-106 victory over the Grizzlie...
Impact Williams might have played off the bench in this game, but he made his presence felt on both ends of the court as soon as he entered the contest. The fourth-year forward, who was facing his former team for the first time in his career, has been trending in the right direction in recent days and has scored in double digits in back-to-back games after a slow start to the campaign.
OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE
Cam Thomas - Struggles with shot Wednesday Thomas logged 19 points (4-12 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 10-11 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 119-106 win over Memphis.
Impact Thomas had a rough showing in this win, but fortunately for him, the likes of Dennis Schroeder and Ziaire Williams stepped up to carry the Nets to their second win in their last three matches. Thomas is bound to have a few down games here and there, but he remains the most reliable offensive weapon the Nets have from a scoring perspective -- even when factoring in Schroder's impressive start to the campaign. Through five games, Thomas is averaging 27.4 points per game while shooting 43.4 percent from the floor.
OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE
Dennis Schröder - Explodes for 33-point performance Schroder totaled 33 points (11-14 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 119-106 victory over the Grizzlies.
Impact Schroder reached a new season-high scoring mark with this impressive outing, as he took over the game offensively in a game where Cam Thomas struggled with his shot. Schroder has opened the season on a tear and has reached the 20-point mark in four straight contests, averaging 27.5 points and 8.5 assists per game while shooting a blistering 61 percent from the field in that span. Some regression is bound to happen, but the German floor general will remain as one of the Nets' go-to players on offense every time Brooklyn takes the floor.
