Finney-Smith (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Milwaukee, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports. Despite previously saying he'd play Thursday, Finney-Smith will miss his third consecutive outing due to a left calf contusion. The 31-year-old's status for the second leg of the back-to-back set Friday against the Spurs is now in jeopardy, and Noah Clowney will likely continue seeing an increased role in Finney-Smith's absence.

Nets Injury Report
Finney-Smith (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Milwaukee, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports. Despite previously saying he'd play Thursday, Finney-Smith will miss his third consecutive outing due to a left calf contusion. The 31-year-old's status for the second leg of the back-to-back set Friday against the Spurs is now in jeopardy, and Noah Clowney will likely continue seeing an increased role in Finney-Smith's absence.
Simmons (back) is available for Thursday's game against the Bucks, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports. Simmons was added to the injury report Wednesday, but he'll suit up and should handle his regular workload as a point forward. Simmons is averaging 6.3 points, 4.1 rebounds and 7.1 assists per game since the beginning of December.
Finney-Smith (calf) said he will play in Thursday's game versus the Bucks, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports. Finney-Smith will return to action Thursday after missing Brooklyn's last two contests due to a left calf contusion. The veteran forward should reclaim his starting spot from Noah Clowney.
Williams (knee) will not play Thursday versus Milwaukee, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports. Williams absence will extend to nine consecutive games due to his ongoing left knee sprain. He had ascended to a 25.0 minute per game roll across five starts prior to suffering this knee sprain, so he's a candidate to be a relevant part of Brooklyn's rotation when he is eventually cleared to return to action.
Thomas (hamstring) will be inactive Thursday versus Milwaukee, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports. Thomas is nearing a return to action, but he will not take the court to commence Brooklyn's back-to-back starting Thursday. Friday versus San Antonio is a possibility, although Brooklyn may look to manage his workload cautiously upon an eventual return.
Finney-Smith (calf) is questionable for Thursday's game versus Milwaukee, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports. Finney-Smith is at risk of missing his third consecutive game due to a left calf contusion. He is joined by Ben Simmons (back) as questionable, while Cam Thomas (hamstring) and Ziaire Williams (knee) will remain out for Brooklyn.
Simmons is questionable to play Thursday versus Milwaukee due to management of his lower back injury, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports. Simmons' injury designation appears to be more maintenance related than indicative of an aggravation, but his status will need to monitored. Simmons has started four consecutive contests for Brooklyn, averaging 10.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 8.5 assists in 30.5 minutes per game over that span.
Milton closed with four points (1-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists and two steals over 19 minutes during Monday's 110-95 loss to the Heat. Milton had a nightmare showing in the loss after two straight games with double-digit points. Despite this dud, Milton is someone that deep-league fantasy managers will want to keep tabs on with the Nets rumored to be looking to unload Cameron Johnson and Dorian Finney-Smith (calf).
