Even while seeing just 14.0 minutes per game over his 11 appearances, Sharpe has averaged 7.1 points, 6.6 rebounds and 0.5 blocks, numbers that would make him intriguing if he can take hold of a more sizable role.

Impact The 12 rebounds mark a season high for Sharpe, and it's notable that he did this despite Nic Claxton's return from an ankle issue.

Impact With a handful of Brooklyn's regulars sidelined for the first half of a back-to-back set and head coach Jacque Vaughn opting to bench his starters following a slow start Thursday, the former UNC star saw action for the first time since March 1. Sharpe struggled from the field and needed 13 shots to score 11 points, but he still posted a decent stat line with contributions across the five major categories. He's not receiving consistent minutes, meaning this performance was likely an outlier rather than a sign of things to come.
