Trendon Watford - Leading scorer off bench Wednesday Watford closed Wednesday's 136-86 loss to the Celtics with 15 points (5-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 26 minutes.
Impact Watford saw extended playing for the second time in three games as the Nets saw themselves down by as many as 56 points in Wednesday's loss. He and Mikal Bridges were the only two Brooklyn players to score in double-digits. Watford is averaging 6.0 points across 12.1 minute per game this season, and doesn't figure to get more playing time following the All-Star break.

Dennis Schroder - Limited impact in start vs. Boston Schroder had four points (2-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 18 minutes during Wednesday's 136-86 loss to Boston.
Impact Schroder entered the starting lineup for Wednesday's contest with Ben Simmons (knee) sidelined for the second game of a back-to-back. Schroder wasn't able to get much going on the offensive side of the floor, but the same could be said for the team as a whole as Nets shot 38.3 percent from the field. Schroder's playing time following the All-Star break will largely depend on the availability of Simmons, and the former figures to oscillate between the starting lineup and bench for the rest of the regular season.
FEBRUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE
Cam Thomas - Regresses in loss Wednesday Thomas finished Wednesday's 136-86 loss to Boston with five points (1-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal over 25 minutes.
Impact After scoring 26 points on 10-for-20 shooting Tuesday against the Celtics, Thomas came back down to earth Wednesday when he missed eight of his nine shot attempts. The third-year guard out of LSU is averaging a career-best 21.2 points per game this season, but his scoring efficiency continues to be of high variance.
FEBRUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE
Cameron Johnson - Limited impact in return Johnson (adductor) tallied four points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one block across 18 minutes in Wednesday's 136-86 loss to the Celtics.
Impact Johnson made his return from a four-game absence due to adductor tightness, but based on how he performed Wednesday, the Nets may have in hindsight preferred to have held him out. In fairness, Johnson didn't get much support from his teammates Wednesday, as the Celtics ran the Nets out of the gym early and built a 36-point halftime lead. Fantasy managers shouldn't get too discouraged by Johnson's modest minutes total either, as it likely isn't an accurate representation of what he'll receive in a competitive game moving forward. No Nets player logged more than 26 minutes in the blowout loss, and all 14 active players saw at least eight minutes. With the All-Star break on the horizon, Johnson and the Nets will have plenty of time to regroup before the team returns to action Feb. 22 versus Toronto.

Dennis Schroder - Making first start as Net Schroder will join the first unit for Wednesday's game against the Celtics.
Impact In just his third game with Brooklyn, Schroder will enter the starting lineup, replacing Ben Simmons (knee) at the point guard slot. In his two appearances since being dealt to the Nets, Schroder is averaging 12.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 7.5 assists across 29.5 minutes.
