Impact Over the last two games, Wilson has totaled 28 points, six assists, three rebounds, four steals and seven made three-pointers. With Dennis Schroder in Golden State and Cam Thomas (hamstring), Ziaire Williams (knee) and Bojan Bogdanovic (foot) all out, Wilson has a clear path to heavy minutes, even if he continues to operate off the bench.

Out of starting five Sunday Wilson will come off the bench in Sunday's game against the Bucks, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact The 24-year-old has received an increased role throughout the season due to numerous injuries, though he will slide to the bench with Dorian Finney-Smith returning from a four-game absence. Wilson has started in each of his last five appearances, during which he averaged 9.4 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists while shooting 42.9 percent from the field across 31.6 minutes per contest.

Quiet in return Wilson closed with 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-3 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist over 31 minutes during Friday's 123-100 loss to Orlando.

Impact Wilson returned to the lineup after missing the previous game due to a mild calf issue. He remained in the starting lineup but was unable to repeat his heroics from earlier in the week. With that said, he has scored double-digits in four of the past six games, flashing some nice offensive upside. Until the Nets are back to full health, he should continue to play a significant role moving forward.

Starting vs. Orlando Wilson is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Magic, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.

Impact Wilson is back after a one-game absence due to right calf tightness, and the second-year forward will move straight into the lineup since Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle) is out. Wilson has made two starts this season, playing 34 and 41 minutes in wins over the Hornets and Warriors, respectively.

Remains questionable Wilson (calf) is questionable for Friday's game against the Magic.

Impact Wilson missed the win over the Suns on Wednesday due to right calf tightness, and a decision on his status will be made closer to Friday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff. That said, his availability status shouldn't affect many fantasy decisions, as Wilson isn't a player worth targeting outside of the very deep formats.

NOVEMBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Wilson logged his second start of the season and turned in a season-high 18 points in the win. In addition to Brooklyn's lenghty injury report, Ben Simmons will sit one end of a back-to-back for the foreseeable future. This scenario should provide Wilson with more opportunities to make an impact during his sophomore season.

NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Monday Wilson will enter the starting lineup in Monday's game against the Warriors.

Impact With Cam Thomas (back) sidelined, Wilson made his first start of the season and set new season highs in points and made three-pointers. The second-year wing has handled a bigger role than he did as a rookie, and his production has nudged up as well. Through 15 appearances, Wilson is averaging 9.2 points, 3.3 boards, 1.8 assists and 1.3 threes in 22.5 minutes a contest.

NOVEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE

Starting sans Thomas Wilson will enter the starting lineup in Tuesday's game against the Hornets, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact With Cam Thomas (back) sidelined for the first time this year, Wilson will enter the starting five for just the fourth time in his career.

Impact Wilson scored in double digits for a second straight game, and he notched his first steal since Nov. 1 against Chicago.

Impact This was Wilson's fourth game of the campaign scoring in double figures through eight appearances. His production has been sporadic, but he's certainly intriguing in deeper fantasy formats with 8.6 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 0.9 three-pointers in 22.8 minutes per contest.

NOVEMBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Productive off bench Wilson produced 11 points (3-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 144-139 overtime loss to the Nuggets.

Impact After scoring a combined two points in his previous two outings, Wilson got back on track Tuesday night. His strong performance on Opening Night turned some heads, and he again showed fantasy managers why he's so intriguing with a double-digit effort against Denver in the overtime loss. Fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on him going forward, especially when the Nets are shorthanded.

Perfect from charity stripe Wilson ended with 16 points (3-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 120-116 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Wilson was Brooklyn's second-leading scorer Wednesday despite coming off the bench. Without many go-to scorers outside of Cam Thomas, Wilson could be in store for a significant role as a sparkplug in the team's second unit. If the 24-year-old forward continues to play upwards of 30 minutes, he will garner serious fantasy attention.

OCTOBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Not starting in opener Wilson won't start Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Hawks, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Wilson started in Brooklyn's preseason finale but will return to the bench for the start of the regular season. Still, he's slated to play a significant role with the reserves after appearing in 43 games as a rookie in 2023-24.
