DAY'RON SHARPE NEWS

Serves as backup center in debut Sharpe (hamstring) recorded four points (0-2 FG, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block in 16 minutes off the bench in Monday's 128-102 loss to the Bulls.

Impact The Nets were shorthanded Monday with eight players sitting out with injuries, but the return of Sharpe at least helped shore up the Nets' depth in the frontcourt to some degree. Sharpe -- who had missed the Nets' first 21 games of the season with a left hamstring strain -- settled in as the backup center behind starter Nic Claxton, but it's unclear if the Nets will have room in the rotation for Sharpe once the club is back to full strength. At least until Noah Clowney (ankle) is cleared to play, however, Sharpe should have a regular spot on the second unit.

Available for Monday Sharpe (hamstring) is available for Monday's game against the Bulls.

Impact Sharpe was cleared for on-court activities back on Nov. 27 and now appears set to make his season debut. He's likely to have restrictions in his first game back, but he's someone to watch in deeper formats with so many injuries in Brooklyn.

Not playing vs. Orlando Sharpe (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against the Magic, Meghan Triplett of YES Network reports.

Impact Sharpe was cleared for on-court activities on Nov. 27, and while his return should come soon, this matchup against the Magic comes too soon for him. The big man will aim to return for the second leg of his back-to-back set against the Bulls on Monday.

Cleared for practice Sharpe (hamstring) has been cleared to return to on-court team activities, the Nets announced Wednesday.

Impact The Nets are hopeful to have Sharpe back within a week, putting a potential return on Dec. 1 against the Magic on the table. With so many injuries in Brooklyn, Sharpe has enough upside to make him worth a look as a stash in deeper formats.

Progressing in recovery Sharpe (hamstring) has begun 1-on-1 workouts with coaches and is expected to be integrated into team activities in the next 7-10 days, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact Sharpe has yet to play this season due to a left hamstring strain. However, Sharpe appears to be progressing well in his recovery and could return to action at the start of December if he doesn't suffer any setbacks.

NOVEMBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Still working through injury Sharpe (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Charlotte.

Impact Sharpe suffered a left hamstring strain in early October during training camp. He was ruled out for at least six weeks due to the injury, so Sharpe could be close to making his 2024-25 regular-season debut. His next chance to do so will be Friday against the 76ers.

NOVEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Out at least six weeks Sharpe will miss at least six weeks with a left hamstring strain, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact This is a brutal blow for the Nets, as Sharpe is one of the most reliable backup centers in the NBA. Trendon Watford is also battling a hamstring strain and is expected to miss a couple weeks. Based on Sharpe's timetable, the earliest he could return is Nov. 19 against the Hornets. Noah Clowney could see increased run to open the season as a result, while Nic Claxton could have a higher floor in fantasy basketball.

OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Hamstring issue emerges Sharpe is being evaluated for a hamstring injury, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.

Impact Sharpe has fully recovered from a right wrist effusion from last year but now appears to be dealing with a new hamstring injury. His status for Tuesday's preseason opener against the Clippers is in question.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Appears good to go Sharpe (wrist) participated in Brooklyn's practice Wednesday, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Sharpe battled a right wrist effusion at the end of the 2023-24 season, but the 22-year-old had a smooth offseason of recovery. He enters training camp competing with Noah Clowney for back-up frontcourt minutes.

OCTOBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play season finale Sunday Sharpe (wrist) is out for Sunday's game against the 76ers, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.

Impact Sharpe ends the regular season having missed three of Brooklyn's last six games, and while the game had some ups and downs throughout the campaign, he ended up scoring in double digits in 15 different appearances despite playing mostly off the bench. The third-year big man averaged 6.8 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.4 assists across 15.1 minutes per game this season, with each of those figures representing career-high marks for him.

APRIL 13 • ROTOWIRE

Officially ruled out Sharpe (wrist) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Knicks, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact Sharpe was downgraded from questionable to doubtful in the hours leading up to Friday's tipoff, so it isn't very surprising to see him ruled out. Trendon Watford could see additional playing time against the Knicks, while Sharpe's final chance to play during the regular season will be Sunday against Philadelphia.

APRIL 12 • ROTOWIRE

Now unlikely to play Friday Sharpe (wrist) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game versus the Knicks, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Sharpe has been downgraded from questionable to out Friday due to right wrist effusion. If he's ultimately ruled out, Trendon Watford is a candidate to receive increased playing time.

APRIL 12 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Friday Sharpe (right wrist effusion) is questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Sharpe was a late addition to the injury report which is not exactly a great sign. He's had a very limited role lately, averaging 11.7 minutes in his last nine appearances.

APRIL 12 • ROTOWIRE

Muted role Friday Sharpe supplied two points (1-1 FG) and three rebounds across six minutes during Friday's 125-108 win over the Bulls.

Impact Sharpe played just six minutes off the bench, the fewest he has played when healthy since the second game of the regular season. Despite having a fantasy-friendly game, Sharpe simply doesn't see enough playing time to warrant serious attention. He is someone to watch heading into next season, should the Nets opt to play him more often.

MARCH 30 • ROTOWIRE

Huge night on glass Sharpe finished with eight points (4-11 FG), 17 rebounds, three assists and two blocks over 24 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 104-91 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact The 17 boards were a career high for Sharpe, topping the 15 he pulled down against the Knicks on Dec. 20. The third-year center has only 20 rebounds over the prior five games combined however, and he hasn't recorded a double-double since Jan. 3. Tuesday was also the first time in March Sharpe had played 20-plus minutes in a game, and without a more consistent role in the Brooklyn rotation, he's tough to roster in almost any format.

MARCH 20 • ROTOWIRE

Plays well in loss Sharpe finished Sunday's 122-115 overtime loss to the Spurs with 15 points (7-9 FG, 1-3 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 19 minutes.

Impact This was Sharpe's largest workload in March, and he reached double figures for the first time since Feb. 29. Sharpe is a strong per-minute player in fantasy basketball, but he's averaged just 14.6 minutes through seven March appearances.

MARCH 19 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Sharpe (wrist) is available for Saturday's game in Charlotte, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Sharpe was given a probable designation on Brooklyn's initial injury report, so this progress is not surprising. He is returning from a two-game absence stemming from a wrist injury. The 22-year-old has averaged 6.7 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 0.3 triples across 14.0 minutes over his last nine games.

MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to play Saturday Sharpe (wrist) is probable for Saturday's game versus Charlotte, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact Sharpe is expected to return to action Saturday after missing Brooklyn's previous two contests with a right wrist contusion. If Sharpe is further upgraded to available, he should serve as Brooklyn's primary backup center behind Nic Claxton.

MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out against Philadelphia Sharpe (wrist) won't play in Thursday's game versus the 76ers.

Impact Sharpe will miss his second consecutive game Thursday after being downgraded from questionable to out with a right wrist contusion. His next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Charlotte.

MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Thursday Sharpe (wrist) is questionable for Thursday's game versus the 76ers, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact Sharpe is in danger of missing his second straight contest Thursday due to a right contusion. Jalen Wilson and Nic Claxton should continue to receive extended minutes if Sharpe remains out.
