Impact Watford has missed 37 games this season due to a hamstring injury that he suffered during training camp in early October. He's played in 13 of 15 games since the beginning of February, and while he'll miss Monday's game, he could be available for Tuesday's bout against Cleveland.

Impact Watford recorded his first double-double of the season Tuesday, marking his seventh such outing over his four-year career. The 24-year-old also tied his career-high mark in steals, and he has racked up multiple swipes in five of his 25 regular-season appearances.

Takes over in fourth quarter in win Watford supplied 16 points (7-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound and six assists over 24 minutes during Saturday's 105-103 win over the 76ers.

Impact It was surprising to see Watford take over as Brooklyn's primary ball handler late in the game, with 11 of his 16 points coming during the fourth quarter of a tight contest. His six assists also represented the team high Saturday, marking Watford's new season best in the process. The 24-year-old's fantasy arrow is pointing up a bit, with averages of 14.4 points, 3.6 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 0.8 steals in 22.4 minutes over his last five games, and Watford could continue to see an uptick in playmaking duties while D'Angelo Russell (ankle) is sidelined.

Impact Watford tied his season-high scoring mark with a very efficient performance, as he missed just one of his shots from the field, and he also did a good job of filling out the stat sheet. Watford has scored in double digits in each of his last three games, and he's going through one of his most productive stretches of the campaign now that the All-Star break is right around the corner.

Cleared from injury report Watford (hamstring) is off the injury report for Friday's game against the Heat.

Impact After being rested on the second half of Brooklyn's back-to-back Wednesday against the Wizards, Watford is set to be available Friday. The 24-year-old is still working his way back from an extended absence with a hamstring injury, but he should still play a meaningful role from Brooklyn's bench against Miami. Over three games since returning, Watford has averaged 6.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.7 steals in 17.4 minutes.

FEBRUARY 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Will be rested Wednesday Watford (rest) will not play Wednesday against the Wizards.

Impact Wednesday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, and Watford just returned from a 21-game absence Tuesday. During that game against the Hornets, Watford finished with nine points (4-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists across 18 minutes. He'll be a name to monitor in deeper formats, especially if the Nets unload some veterans at the deadline.

Puts up nine points in return Watford (hamstring) tallied nine points (4-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists across 18 minutes Wednesday in the Nets' 104-83 win over the Hornets.

Impact Brooklyn was without six players due to injury heading into Wednesday, but the return of Watford following a 21-game absence due to a hamstring strain helped restore some depth in the frontcourt. He initially entered the game as a backup at power forward, but he ended up seeing most of his minutes in the second half as center Nicolas Claxton's backup after Day'Ron Sharpe suffered a hamstring injury in the second quarter and was ruled out for the rest of the contest. Even if Noah Clowney (ankle) is back in action for the Nets' next game Saturday in Houston, Sharpe's likely absence for that contest should pave the way for Watford to stick around in the rotation.

Off injury report for Wednesday Watford (hamstring) is off the Nets' injury report for Wednesday's game against the Hornets, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact Watford has missed Brooklyn's last 21 outings due to a left hamstring strain, though he is set to return to game action Wednesday. With the Nets missing several of their key contributors, including Cam Thomas (hamstring), Noah Clowney (ankle) and Cameron Johnson (ankle), Watford could be in line for significant playing time moving forward. However, it would also not be surprising if the 24-year-old operated under a minute restriction in his first game back on the court.

Gearing up for return Watford (hamstring) is expected to return to game action either Wednesday against the Hornets or Saturday against the Rockets, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact Watford will miss his 21st consecutive contest Monday due to a left hamstring strain. However, he is seemingly closing in on a return to game action within the Nets' next two matchups. Head coach Jordi Fernandez said Friday that the 24-year-old is considered day-to-day at this point, per Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today, meaning it wouldn't be surprising if Watford remains limited as the club works him back to full playing form.

Impact Watford will miss a 20th straight game for the Nets while dealing with a left hamstring strain.
