Josh Minott News, Rumors, Updates - Brooklyn Nets

Likely to play vs. Heat Minott (back) is probable for Friday's game against the Heat, per Justin Turpin of WEEI.com.

Impact Minott is managing lower-back spasms, but he remains on track to be available for Friday. He's settling into the backup center role behind Neemias Queta, with Minott averaging 6.2 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 17.5 minutes per night across his last 14 games.

Goes scoreless in loss Minott amassed zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and one steal in 13 minutes during Monday's 112-105 loss to Detroit.

Impact Minott's fall from grace continues, going scoreless for the fourth time in the past month. In 13 appearances during that time, Minott has offered very little on either end of the floor, averaging 6.0 points and 3.2 rebounds in 17.2 minutes per contest. Outside of dynasty formats, it's hard to make a case for Minott being on any rosters.

Muted performance in loss Minott racked up seven points (2-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals over 22 minutes during Thursday's 116-101 loss to Milwaukee.

Impact After generating some buzz early on this season, Minott has since been overshadowed by the emergence of Jordan Walsh. Across 24 regular-season appearances, Minott holds averages of 7.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.3 three-pointers in 19.2 minutes per contest.

Bump in minutes in win Minott chipped in 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt), six rebounds and one block over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 123-117 victory over the Knicks.

Impact Minott's role has fluctuated dramatically this year, making him an unreliable fantasy asset. The 27 minutes were his most since Nov. 5. He has the tools to be an effective nine-category asset, but Minott has averaged just 7.4 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 19.2 minutes per contest over 20 games this season, and the Celtics don't appear to trust him with consistent minutes.

Paces second unit with 16 points Minott had 16 points (7-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist and one block across 20 minutes during Sunday's 138-129 win over Orlando.

Impact Minott's role within Boston's rotation has been very inconsistent since being relegated to the bench, as Minott dropped 16 points in 20 minutes on elite efficiency Sunday after going scoreless in just seven minutes Friday. With Neemias Queta (ankle) exiting the game early, Minott may be a candidate to inherit more playing time should Queta be sidelined, but will likely not supplant him in the starting lineup due to positional difference.

Not starting after all Minott is not in the Celtics' starting lineup against the Nets on Tuesday.

Impact Contrary to a previous report, Minott will remain in a reserve role while Jordan Walsh remains in the starting lineup for a third consecutive game. Minott has seen his playing time fluctuate regardless of his role, so his usage during Tuesday's game may come down to matchups and flow. He has averaged 7.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 0.9 steals over 18.8 minutes per game since Nov. 1.

Starting Tuesday Minott is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's matchup with the Nets.

Impact Minott came off the bench the past two games, but he'll find himself again running with the starters for Tuesday's contest. Head coach Joe Mazzulla may tinker with his starting group throughout the year based on the matchup, but when Minott gets the call, he's a viable deep league target for his ability to rack up the boards and defensive stats.

Headed to bench Minott will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

Impact Minott had been trending down the past three games, and he bottomed out Tuesday, logging a season-low eight minutes. It'll be interesting to see what his minutes look like in the reserve role Wednesday evening, but he's no longer a must-roster player in 12-team formats.

NOVEMBER 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Plays season-low eight minutes Minott posted three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and one rebound over eight minutes during Tuesday's 102-100 loss to Philadelphia.

Impact Minott picked up three quick personal fouls Tuesday and was benched in favor of Jordan Walsh, then never saw the court again for the rest of the game. He was unable to redeem himself from Sunday's scoreless outing against Orlando, but will look to get back on track Wednesday against the Grizzlies.
