Miami Heat: Brooklyn Nets Make Major Jimmy Butler Decision The Brooklyn Nets have seemingly made a decision when it comes to pursuing Jimmy Butler as he looks to leave the Miami Heat.
Trendon Watford - Still out for Tuesday Watford (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's matchup versus Portland, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Impact Watford will miss his 14th consecutive contest due to a left hamstring strain, and his next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against the Clippers. With the 24-year-old sidelined, Tosan Evbuomwan and Jalen Wilson should continue to see a bump in minutes.

Bojan Bogdanovic - Won't make season debut Tuesday Bogdanovic (foot) remains out for Tuesday's game against the Trail Blazers, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Impact Bogdanovic hasn't made his 2024-25 regular-season debut yet, and his absence won't end Tuesday. It's unclear how far along the veteran sharpshooter is in his recovery from offseason foot surgery, so fantasy managers should continue to treat Bogdanovic as out indefinitely going forward.

Cameron Johnson - Game-time call for Tuesday Johnson (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Trail Blazers, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Impact Johnson hasn't taken the court since Jan. 2 due to a right ankle sprain. The team hasn't provided many details on his recovery, so his status is truly up in the air at this point.

D'Angelo Russell - Iffy for Tuesday Russell (shin) is questionable for Tuesday's game versus Portland, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Impact Russell is in jeopardy of missing his fifth consecutive contest due to a right shin contusion. If the 28-year-old is sidelined, Reece Beekman and Tyrese Martin should continue to see a bump in minutes. Over three outings with his new club, Russell has averaged 12.7 points, 8.0 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.7 steals in 22.7 minutes per contest.

Ben Simmons - Iffy for Tuesday Simmons (knee/back) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Trail Blazers, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Impact Simmons doesn't participate in both ends of back-to-backs for the Nets, leaving his status in question for Tuesday. With most of Brooklyn's starters on the injury report, Tyrese Martin, Ziaire Williams and Jalen Wilson are some candidates for increased run against Portland if Simmons sits out.

Nic Claxton - Added to injury report Claxton is questionable for Tuesday's game against Portland due to right hamstring tightness, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Impact This appears to be a recent injury for Claxton, who hasn't missed a game since Nov. 27. It'll be worth keeping a close eye on his status as Tuesday's tipoff approaches. Day'Ron Sharpe and Jalen Wilson would be a few candidates to start at center if Claxton can't go.
