Ben Simmons - Set to practice in G League Simmons (back) is expected to practice with members of the Long Island Nets of the G League this weekend, and he could be set to play early next week if all goes well, Ian Begley o...

Impact Simmons hasn't played since Nov. 6 due to a nerve impingement in his lower back and won't suit up for Thursday's or Saturday's contests. However, barring a setback, the 27-year-old forward is nearing a return to action.

Cameron Johnson - Cleared to play Johnson (shoulder) is available for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves.

Impact Johnson was questionable for Thursday's matchup, but he'll be able to suit up despite his shoulder injury. Over his last four appearances, he's averaged 12.8 points, 4.5 assists and 4.0 rebounds in 26.0 minutes per game.

Cameron Johnson - Questionable Thursday Johnson (left shoulder contusion) is questionable for Thursday's game against Minnesota, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact Johnson must have tweaked his shoulder during Tuesday's game, but we'll have a better idea on his status for Thursday based on his activity level at shootaround. If he's not able to give it a go, that would result in more opportunity for guys like Cam Thomas and Royce O'Neale.

Nic Claxton - Career-best night on glass Claxton posted eight points (4-9 FG), 17 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 39 minutes during Tuesday's 108-103 loss to the Knicks.

Impact The 17 boards were a career high for Claxton, topping the 16 he recorded twice earlier this season, including a New Year's Eve contest against the Thunder. The fifth-year center has pulled down double-digit rebounds in eight of 10 games in January, averaging 13.9 points, 11.3 boards, 1.6 blocks, 1.5 assists and 1.2 steals on the month while shooting 67.4 percent from the floor.

Cameron Johnson - Pops for 19 against Knicks Johnson amassed 19 points (7-14 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and two assists over 25 minutes during Tuesday's 108-103 loss to the Knicks.

Impact The fifth-year forward produced his best scoring effort since he dropped 24 points on the Pistons on Boxing Day. Johnson's had a disappointing season so far, and his numbers have been trending in the wrong direction overall -- through 10 games in January he's averaging just 11.8 points, 3.9 boards, 3.1 assists and 2.4 threes while shooting 38.6 percent from the floor and 50.0 percent from the free-throw line. Without a clear explanation for his shooting woes, Johnson's a tough player to keep active, but the upside he showed in 2022-23 makes him risky to drop.

Mikal Bridges - Erupts for 36 in Tuesday's loss Bridges recorded 36 points (14-26 FG, 7-13 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one steal across 37 minutes during Tuesday's 108-103 loss to the Knicks.

Impact While the 27-year-old wing topped 25 points for the fifth time in the last seven games, he didn't get a lot of help as only two other Nets even scored in double digits. Bridges is averaging a sizzling 27.7 points, 5.0 boards, 4.1 assists, 3.7 threes and 1.0 steals during his hot streak while shooting 42.6 percent (26-for-61) from beyond the arc.

Noah Clowney - Recalled to NBA Brooklyn recalled Clowney from the G League's Long Island Nets on Wednesday.

Impact Clowney will practice with the Nets on Wednesday, but it's unclear if he'll stick around with the team for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves. The rookie first-round pick has made just two appearances at the NBA level this season and has instead seen the overwhelming majority of his playing time in the G League.

Ben Simmons - Out at least another week Simmons (back) has been ruled out for Brooklyn's next three contests, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact Simmons next opportunity to take the court comes Jan. 29 against Utah, at the earliest. Coach Jacque Vaughn noted that Simmons continues to progress from a lower back nerve impingement, and he also mentioned that Simmons is a candidate for practice reps with Brooklyn's G League affiliate in the near future. That being said, there remains no official timeline on a return to game action for the 27-year-old.
