Makes first appearance in a month Aldridge closed Tuesday's 118-105 win over the Rockets with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist over 17 minutes.

Impact Aldridge was cleared to play March 27 against the Hornets after missing the Nets' preceding nine games with a right hip impingement, but he registered four straight DNP-CDs following his removal from the injury report. The veteran's return to the rotation was lackluster at best as he was held scoreless across 17 minutes. Before the hip issue, Aldridge had scored in double figures in seven of his last nine appearances, but currently, it appears like Andre Drummond and Nicolas Claxton have a stronghold on the center position.

Remains out of rotation Aldridge (coach's decision) went unused in Sunday's 122-115 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Aldridge was cleared to play March 27 against the Hornets after missing the Nets' preceding nine games with a right hip impingement, but he still has yet to return to the Brooklyn lineup. With four straight games in which he didn't see the court in coach's decisions, Aldridge simply looks to be out of head coach Steve Nash's rotation at the moment. Andre Drummond and Nicolas Claxton look poised to finish the regular season as the Nets' primary centers.

Impact Aldridge has missed each of Brooklyn's last eight contests, and he won't play in either game during the team's back-to-back set this weekend. However, indications are that he's improving and on track to return within the next week. He could realistically take the court as soon as Tuesday against Detroit.

Out for two-game road trip Nets head coach Steve Nash said that Aldridge (hip) has returned to Brooklyn and will be out for road games Tuesday in Charlotte and Thursday in Philadelphia, Alex Schiffer of The...

Impact According to Brian Lewis of the New York Post, Aldridge is scheduled to undergo an MRI while he's back in New York, even though initial scans on his hip didn't reveal any structural damage. For the time being, Aldridge's injury is being characterized as an impingement of his right hip, the same one for which he required an arthroscopic procedure earlier in his career during his time in Portland. The Nets are likely to provide an update on Aldridge following the road trip, but for at least the next two games, Andre Drummond and Nicolas Claxton are expected to cover most of the minutes at center.

Won't play Tuesday Aldridge has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against Charlotte due to a right hip impingement.

Impact Aldridge scored 14 points (7-10 FG) across 23 minutes during Sunday's loss to the Celtics, but he apparently picked up a hip injury as well. In his absence, Nicolas Claxton and Blake Griffin are both candidates for increased roles behind Andre Drummond.

Moves back to bench Aldridge will come off the bench Thursday against the Heat.

Impact The veteran big man started Tuesday against Toronto and put up 16 points (6-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds and three assists in 29 minutes, but he'll return to the bench with Andre Drummond (knee) rejoining the lineup. Aldridge should fill a lesser role off the bench Thursday, especially with Kevin Durant (knee) also back in the mix.
