Day'Ron Sharpe News, Rumors, Updates - Brooklyn Nets

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.

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, 2024 • 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.

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, 2024 • 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, 2024 • 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.

MARCH 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Will not play Tuesday Sharpe (wrist) will not play in Tuesday's game against the 76ers, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact Sharpe suffered a right wrist injury Monday against the Grizzlies, but the Nets are calling it a contusion. That suggests that he will likely be day-to-day moving forward, and it's possible the Nets are being cautious on the second leg of this back-to-back set. With Sharpe out, Nic Claxton could see a heavy workload and Noah Clowney may see some rare minutes after being recalled from the G League.

Suffers wrist injury Sharpe had his wrist evaluated by the training staff after taking hard fall during Monday's 106-102 loss to Memphis, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports. Sharpe finished with 14 minutes...

Impact Sharpe's status will need to be monitored as Brooklyn closes a back-to-back set Tuesday against Philadelphia. Interim coach Kevin Ollie noted postgame that he had "no update" on Sharpe's expected availability for Tuesday, per Barnes. Nic Claxton was sharp with the lion's share of the workload Monday, delivering 21 points (8-10 FG) and six rebounds in 33 minutes.

MARCH 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Impressive off bench Thursday Sharpe amassed 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 20 minutes during Thursday's 124-97 victory over the Hawks.

Impact Sharpe played fewer minutes than Nic Claxton and Dorian Finney-Smith, but he outplayed them both with an efficient outing -- he only missed two shots from the field while ending two boards shy of a double-double. Sharpe can get the job done on both ends of the court when given enough minutes, but his fantasy upside will remain limited if he continues to play off the bench on a regular basis.

MARCH 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Eight points, eight boards in win Sharpe produced eight points (4-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), eight rebounds and two assists across 15 minutes during Monday's 111-86 win over the Grizzlies.

Impact Sharpe is the league's second-most impactful rebounder on a per-minute basis this season, trailing only Andre Drummond. He is averaging a modest 7.0 points and 6.7 rebounds with no defensive playmaking across three contests since the All-Star break, but his categorical dominance makes him worth monitoring down the stretch.

FEBRUARY 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Strong per-minute producer in return Sharpe (knee) tallied six points (2-3 FG, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist across nine minutes in Tuesday's 118-110 loss to the Celtics.

Impact In his return from a 15-game absence due to a hyperextended left knee, Sharpe was a plus-3 during his time on the court and produced quality numbers, but he may not have a pathway to consistently see 15-plus minutes off the bench while the Nets have all of their key frontcourt options available. However, Sharpe is off the injury report for Wednesday's rematch with Boston and could face less of a challenge for the backup minutes behind starting center Nic Claxton, as Ben Simmons (knee) is resting for the second leg of a back-to-back set.

FEBRUARY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Says he'll play Tuesday Sharpe (knee) said Monday that he'll play in Tuesday's game against the Celtics, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.

Impact Sharpe has missed over a month due to a left knee injury, but he'll be able to return to action in the first half of a back-to-back set Tuesday. He averaged 7.5 points and 7.0 rebounds in 16.0 minutes per game prior to his injury, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him face some restrictions Tuesday following his lengthy absence.

FEBRUARY 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Still out indefinitely Sharpe (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks.

Impact Sharpe hyperextended his left knee Jan. 7 and hasn't played since. He doesn't have a return timetable and hasn't been cleared for full-contract drills, so he can be considered week-to-week.

FEBRUARY 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out Sharpe (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Suns.

Impact Sharpe hasn't played since hyperextending his left knee Jan. 7 and still doesn't have a return timetable. He went through an individual workout Monday but still hasn't been cleared for contact, per Evan Barnes of Newsday. Sharpe can be considered week-to-week at this point.

JANUARY 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

No timetable for return Sharpe (knee) is ramping up conditioning and weight room activities, although he does not have a timeline for returning to action, Lucas Kaplan of NetsDaily reports.

Impact Sharpe hyperextended his left knee on Jan. 7 and has been sidelined since. The 22-year-old was logging a career-high 16.0 minutes per game across 37 appearances for Brooklyn prior to the injury, producing 7.5 points and 7.0 rebounds per game.

JANUARY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Re-evaluated in two weeks Sharpe was diagnosed with a hyperextended left knee Tuesday and will be re-evaluated in about two weeks, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact Sharpe suffered the injury Sunday against Portland and his absence will be a blow to the Nets, as he's been fantastic off the bench. Given this timeframe, it's likely that Sharpe will miss at least six games, with the earliest potential return being Jan. 25 against Minnesota. The Nets aren't afraid of using small-ball lineups, so guys like Dorian Finney-Smith and Royce O'Neale could see an uptick in minutes. Starting center Nic Claxton could also have a higher fantasy floor in the short term.

JANUARY 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Slated for MRI Sharpe (knee) will undergo an MRI on Monday, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Sharpe suffered a left knee sprain during Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers, and he'll require additional imaging in Brooklyn on Monday to determine the extent of his injury. He won't make the initial trip to Paris with the rest of the team ahead of Thursday's game against Cleveland, but coach Jacque Vaughn said that Sharpe could potentially join the team later, depending on the severity of his injury.

JANUARY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return Sunday Sharpe will not return to Sunday's contest after suffering a left knee sprain, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Impact Sharpe was helped to the locker room after suffering the injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest. The initial diagnosis of a knee sprain will certainly be followed by additional testing for the 22-year-old. If he dodged a major injury, he'll have three full days of rest until Brooklyn next takes the court Thursday against Cleveland.

JANUARY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Heads to locker room Sharpe went to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers due to an apparent leg injury, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Sharpe went down after contesting a layup in the closing minutes of Sunday's matchup and appeared to be in considerable pain afterward. The severity of his injury isn't yet clear, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him out for the rest of the game since he exited with just over three minutes remaining. Prior to his departure, he tallied 11 points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and a block in 17 minutes.

JANUARY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Double-doubles off bench Sharpe had 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-6 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 20 minutes during Wednesday's 112-101 loss to the Rockets.

Impact The Nets struggled offensively in this game, but Sharpe posted a solid performance on both ends of the court and made the most of his minutes while putting up his sixth double-double of the campaign -- all while playing off the bench. Sharpe has been a productive player of late, averaging 9.8 points and 8.0 rebounds per game while logging 17.2 minutes per contest.

JANUARY 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Near double-double in blowout loss Sharpe finished Tuesday's 112-85 loss to the Pelicans with 12 points (6-9 FG), nine rebounds, two assists and one block over 17 minutes.

Impact Sharpe has been one rebound away from a double-double in two of his last three games. He was the most efficient scorer on the night in a game when the Nets scored just 34 points in the first half. He's now scored in double-digits in six of his last seven games.

JANUARY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Nears double-double off bench Sharpe provided 10 points (5-7 FG), nine rebounds and three assists across 18 minutes during Friday's 110-104 loss to the Wizards.

Impact Sharpe led all bench players in Friday's contest in rebounds while ending as one of six Nets with a double-digit point total and finishing one board short of a double-double to lead the second unit. Sharpe has reached the double-digit scoring mark in five straight games, adding nine or more rebounds in three of those contests.

DECEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back to bench Sharpe won't start Friday's game against the Wizards.

Impact Sharpe will slide back to a bench role after garnering a spot start Wednesday in Nic Claxton's absence. Sharpe has scored in double figures in four games in a row, averaging 11.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.8 blocks and 1.0 steals in 18.5 minutes during that stretch.

DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Efficient in loss to Bucks Sharpe notched 12 points (5-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one block over 16 minutes during Wednesday's 144-122 loss to Milwaukee.

Impact Sharpe was one of several non-regulars who got trusted into a starting role Wednesday, and he responded with solid numbers on both ends of the court. Sharpe has shown he can perform when given enough minutes, but he is expected to return to a bench role against the Wizards on Friday, limiting his upside considerably.

DECEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starting sans Claxton Sharpe is in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus the Bucks.

Impact Sharpe will replace Nic Claxton (ankle) in the starting lineup Wednesday. While Sharpe is making his first start of the season against Milwaukee, he has recorded double-doubles in two of his last three appearances coming off the bench.
