Double-double from bench Monday Sharpe logged 14 points (4-7 FG, 6-6 FT), 12 rebounds and one block over 23 minutes off the bench during Monday's 113-105 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact It was the fifth-year center's second double-double of the season, with the other coming back on Oct. 27. Sharpe has been busy on the defensive end in January, and over the last six games (three starts) he's averaging 10.7 points, 9.3 boards, 2.7 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.8 blocks in 25.5 minutes while shooting 55.6 percent from the floor.

Shines off bench Sharpe totaled eight points (4-7 FG), 13 rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 21 minutes during Sunday's 103-98 loss to the Grizzlies.

Impact Although Nic Claxton saw more minutes, Sharpe was far more effective off the bench for Brooklyn. It's worth mentioning that Claxton has been linked to moves elsewhere ahead of the trade deadline, and Sharpe's elevated play may make a transaction more likely.

Reverting back to bench Sharpe is coming off the bench in Friday's game against the Clippers, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.

Impact The Nets have deployed Sharpe as a starter for three consecutive games, though the club plans to have Nic Claxton return to his usual role in the first unit Friday. Sharpe has averaged 8.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.2 steals in 17.1 minutes per tilt across his last 10 games off the bench, so he should be able to maintain a decent level of fantasy value from the second unit.

Another strong showing as starter Sharpe notched 17 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals over 32 minutes during Sunday's 127-115 win over the Nuggets.

Impact Sharpe made his second straight start, providing a full stat line to go with an efficient 17 points. The 2021 first-rounder is serving as Brooklyn's temporary starter at center while Nic Claxton tends to a personal matter, and Sharpe has flourished in his limited chances with the first unit since last season. Dating back to 2024-25, Sharpe has averaged 16.3 points, 11.5 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.5 blocks in 30.9 minutes per tilt over four games as a starter.

Thrives in spot start Sharpe logged 14 points (6-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals in 30 minutes during Friday's 119-99 loss to the Wizards.

Impact Sharpe moved into the starting lineup for the first time this season, replacing Nic Claxton, who was ruled out due to personal reasons. As hoped, Sharpe rewarded anyone who had him in their active lineup, falling one rebound short of what would have been just his second double-double of the season. He added four combined steals and blocks for good measure, a reminder of what he is capable of when afforded starter-level minutes. Claxton could return as soon as Sunday, meaning Sharpe's standard league run could very well end at one game. With that said, he is worth keeping a close eye on, just in case his role elevates at any point.

Starting sans Claxton Sharpe is starting in Friday's game against the Wizards.

Impact The big man is getting a crack in the first unit in the absence of Nic Claxton (personal) on Friday. It'll be the first start of the season for Sharpe, who averaged 17.0 points, 15.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.5 blocks and 1.0 steals in 30.8 minutes per game covering a pair of regular-season contests as a starter in 2024-25.

JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Logs career high in loss Sharpe closed Thursday's 120-96 loss to the Rockets with eight points (4-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), eight rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 19 minutes.

Impact After shooting 1-for-3 from the field across 12 minutes in Monday's loss to Golden State, Sharpe bounced back and provided a solid all-around effort Thursday. The big man recorded a team- and career-high seven assists, dishing out at least five dimes for the third time this season. Sharpe continues to see relatively consistent playing time off the bench behind Nic Claxton, and the former has averaged 7.6 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.2 assists in 17.8 minutes per game over his last five outings.

Fares well off bench Sharpe notched eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and four assists across 20 minutes during Sunday's 96-81 victory over the Raptors.

Impact Sharpe has excelled as Nicolas Claxton's backup in Brooklyn. Over his last four outings, he has produced 11th-round fantasy value in just 16.0 minutes per contest with 7.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.0 steals on 58.8 percent shooting from the field.

Stuffs stat sheet off bench Sharpe notched 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and four steals in 17 minutes during Sunday's 127-82 win over Milwaukee.

Impact Sharpe ended just two boards away from posting a double-double, but he also made an impact as a playmaker and defender -- he posted season-high marks in assists and steals. Sharpe has been productive off the bench lately and has scored in double digits in three of his previous four outings. He's averaging 8.8 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.8 blocks across 16.0 minutes off the bench since the beginning of December.

DECEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Hits for 16 off bench Sharpe totaled 16 points (7-8 FG, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 19 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 119-101 victory over New Orleans.

Impact The fifth-year center scored in double digits for a second straight game, the first time all season he's accomplished even that modest feat. Sharpe has struggled to make a consistent impact offensively this season, but he's been a little more active defensively of late -- over the last 10 games, he's averaging 7.7 points, 5.5 boards, 1.6 assists and 1.4 combined steals and blocks in 16.9 minutes from the second unit.

Disappointing season continues Sharpe chipped in six points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds and three assists across 15 minutes during Monday's 116-103 win over the Hornets.

Impact Sharpe hasn't made much of an impact this season, failing to take any real strides on either end of the court. Through 19 games, he has averaged just 6.5 points and 5.3 rebounds in 16.1 minutes per contest. As long as Nic Claxton is healthy, there is no reason to be holding Sharpe outside of deeper formats.

DECEMBER 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Grabs eight boards in loss Sharpe finished Monday's 113-100 loss to New York with five points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal across 22 minutes.

Impact Sharpe logged at least 20 minutes for just the second time this season, playing a slightly larger role with Nic Claxton struggling with a quad injury. It's been an uneventful season for Sharpe, playing second fiddle to Claxton, much like last year. He has limited streaming appeal but really needs Claxton to sit out to have any chance of putting up meaningful value.

Season-best performance Sharpe had 16 points (7-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and three steals across 18 minutes during Tuesday's 113-99 loss to the Celtics.

Impact Sharpe reminded everyone just what he is capable of, turning in his best all-around performance of the season. He continues to sit behind Nic Claxton in the rotation, resulting in a backup role, typically yielding minutes in the mid-teens. Despite this effort, there is no indication his playing time will increase moving forward, making him a viable streaming option at best.

NOVEMBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Friday Sharpe (lower body) is good to go for Friday's game against Orlando, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact Sharpe will shake off a probable tag and will likely reprise his role as the backup center. The big man holds averages of 6.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.9 steals in 15.9 minutes per contest across 10 games this season.

NOVEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Probable for Friday Sharpe (glute) is probable for Friday's game against Orlando, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact After missing Tuesday's loss to Toronto with a glute contusion, Sharpe is likely to return to the lineup Friday. The 2021 first-rounder should handle the backup center role behind Nic Claxton. Sharpe has averaged 6.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.9 steals in 15.9 minutes per contest across 10 games this season, shooting 64.9 percent from the field.

NOVEMBER 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Confirmed out for Tuesday Sharpe (glute) won't play Tuesday against the Raptors.

Impact After leaving Sunday's loss to the Knicks early due to left hamstring tightness, the injury is now being described as a left glute contusion. That's good news for Sharpe, and it means he'll likely be listed as day-to-day. Guys like Jalen Wilson, Noah Clowney and maybe Danny Wolf could see more opportunities with this news.

NOVEMBER 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Tuesday Sharpe (hamstring) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Raptors, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact Sharpe is in jeopardy of missing Tuesday's contest after leaving Sunday's loss to the Knicks early due to left hamstring tightness. If the 24-year-old center is unable to suit up against Toronto, Jalen Wilson and Noah Clowney are candidates for increased minutes, while rookie Danny Wolf could enter the rotation.

NOVEMBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Set for testing on hamstring Nets head coach Jordi Fernandez said after Sunday's 134-98 loss to the Knicks that Sharpe would undergo testing on his left hamstring Monday to determine the severity of the injury...

Impact Sharpe contributed 10 points (3-3 FG, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block in 12 minutes before exiting Sunday's contest with 1:49 remaining in the third quarter. Though an official timeline for Sharpe's return won't be provided until his tests are completed, the Nets already seem to be bracing for him to miss at least their next game Tuesday versus the Raptors. Brooklyn recalled Danny Wolf from the G League's Long Island Nets on Monday, and the rookie first-round pick will be a candidate to enter the rotation as starting center Nic Claxton's top backup if Sharpe can't play Tuesday.
