Nolan Traore News, Rumors, Updates - Brooklyn Nets

Won't suit up Sunday Traore (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raptors.

Impact The rookie first-rounder is under the weather and will miss Brooklyn's regular-season finale. Traore saw limited action early in the campaign but eventually earned a more sizable role, and he'll finish the season with averages of 8.9 points, 3.8 assists and 1.8 rebounds while shooting 38.0 percent from the field in 22.2 minutes per showing across 56 regular-season games (31 starts).

Unlikely to play vs. Toronto Traore (illness) has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful for Sunday's game against the Raptors.

Impact It looks like Traore will not be available for Sunday's regular-season finale while battling through an illness. Tyson Etienne, Malachi Smith and Drake Powell should all see an uptick in playing time if Traore is indeed ruled out.

Questionable for Sunday Traore is questionable to play Sunday in Toronto due to an illness, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact If Traore can't give it a go Sunday, Drake Powell would likely pick up most of his minutes. Check back for official word on Traore closer to Sunday's tipoff.

Not listed on injury report Traore isn't listed on Brooklyn's injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Bucks.

Impact Traore played only nine minutes against the Bucks on Tuesday and sat out Thursday's loss to Indiana for rest purposes. While he's available, it's unclear how many minutes the rookie will play in Brooklyn's penultimate regular-season game.

Ruled out vs. Indiana Traore (rest) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Pacers.

Impact Traore will sit out the front end of this back-to-back, and his next chance to play will come Friday in Milwaukee. With the rookie first-rounder unavailable, Ben Saraf and Malachi Smith are candidates for increased run.

Not starting Tuesday Traore won't start in Tuesday's game against Milwaukee, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Traore has been a fixture in the starting lineup since the end of January. However, with head coach Jordi Fernandez evaluating things for next season, Ben Saraf (back), who was upgraded to available after missing Sunday's 121-115 win over Washington, will re-enter the starting lineup, sending Traore to the bench.

Scores 23 points in win Traore racked up 23 points (7-18 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and seven assists in 28 minutes during Sunday's 121-115 win over the Wizards.

Impact Traore recorded a season-high 23 points as the Nets improved to 19-59 on the season. He's shooting 35.6 percent from the field over his last six games with averages of 12.0 points, 5.5 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 1.7 three-pointers in 25.4 minutes per contest.

Posts decent final line Traore produced 13 points (5-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals in 29 minutes during Friday's 141-107 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Traore put together a solid shooting line and knocked down a pair of threes after going 0-for-2 from deep in his previous showing Tuesday against Charlotte. He more notably tallied a team-high three steals and collected his first swat since March 23. The rookie guard appears back on track after a few tough games down the stretch of March, as he's averaging 13.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.3 steals in his last three outings.

Strong showing in win Traore supplied 17 points (6-13 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 3-5 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Sunday's 116-99 win over the Kings.

Impact Traore was second only to Ochai Agbaji (18) in scoring Sunday. The rookie is averaging 10.1 points, 5.1 assists, 2.1 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 1.1 three-pointers over his last seven games, but he's shooting an abysmal 29.6 percent from the field.

Makes defensive impact Friday Traore had nine points (4-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt), one rebound, seven assists and four steals across 26 minutes during Friday's 116-99 loss to the Lakers.

Impact The four steals were a season high for the rookie. Traore's offensive contributions have been shaky in March, however, and through 13 games this month he's averaging 9.3 points, 4.0 assists, 1.8 boards, 1.2 threes and 0.8 steals in 21.8 minutes while shooting a rough 32.8 percent from the floor.

Cleared to play Traore (rest) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Traore received a scheduled night off Wednesday, but he's been given the green light to suit up for Friday's tilt. The 19-year-old is averaging 9.0 points, 2.2 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks in his last five outings.

Sniffs double-double Traore amassed 11 points (3-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and one steal over 24 minutes before fouling out of Friday's 93-92 loss to New York.

Impact Traore had a rough shooting performance and needed 11 shots to score 11 points, but fantasy managers will gladly overlook the shooting woes if Traore continues to deliver decent numbers in several categories. He finished just three assists away from notching a double-double, something he hasn't accomplished since Feb. 9, and this was the second straight game in which he had at least 10 points and six assists. The rookie has started in every one of his 16 appearances since the All-Star break, and with Egor Demin (foot) out for the rest of the campaign, he should continue to see regular playing time in the final weeks of the regular season.

Cleared to play Traore (eye) is available for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

Impact As expected, Traore has been upgraded from probable to available and should slide back into the starting five. He's started 22 straight appearances, but the production has been lackluster, averaging 10.6 points, 4.5 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.2 stocks while shooting 41.1 percent from the field.
