Nic Claxton - Downgraded to questionableClaxton (ankle) has been downgraded to questionable for Sunday's game against Chicago.
ImpactAlthough Claxton was listed as probable on the Nets' initial injury report for Sunday, his downgrade to questionable isn't particularly surprising since he was labeled a game-time decision. Royce O'Neale, Dorian Finney-Smith and Day'Ron Sharpe could see increased roles if Claxton is unavailable.

Nic Claxton - Game-time decision SundayClaxton (ankle) is a game-time decision for Sunday's game against Chicago, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ImpactClaxton has been considered probable to play and participated in shootaround, but he's dealing with an aggravation to the high-ankle sprain he suffered in Brooklyn's season opener. His availability will come down to pregame warm-ups, with Royce O'Neale, Dorian Finney-Smith, and Day'Ron Sharpe being candidates to step up if Claxton can't take the court.

Nic Claxton - Dealing with ankle sprainClaxton is probable for Sunday's game against the Bulls due to a left ankle sprain, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
ImpactClaxton posted 13 points, six rebounds, three blocks and two steals in 24 minutes during Saturday's win over Miami. The issue shouldn't prevent him from suiting up for the second night of a back-to-back set, and his presence on the injury report is likely just precautionary after missing eight games earlier in the season due to a high-ankle sprain. Since returning to action, Claxton has averaged 13.2 points, 8.5 rebounds, 2.7 blocks and 1.3 assists in 26.5 minutes over his last six appearances (all starts).
