Ben Simmons - Listed probable for Wednesday Simmons is probable for Wednesday's game against the Suns due to a left knee contusion, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.

Impact Simmons fell awkwardly at the end of Monday's win over Utah, but he should be fine moving forward. It's encouraging to see him not listed with the back injury, which caused him to miss 38 straight games before his return versus the Jazz. Simmons looked sharp in limited work during his first game since Nov. 6, falling two rebounds short of a triple-double in just 18 minutes. While he'll likely be available again Wednesday, it's safe to presume Simmons will be limited to around 20 minutes versus Phoenix.

Nic Claxton - Posts another double-double Claxton had 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists, three blocks and one steal in 26 minutes during Monday's 147-114 victory over Utah.

Impact Claxton has now gone 12 games with double-digit points and/or double-digit rebounds, tallying nine double-doubles in that span. The two-way big man deserves serious fantasy consideration in all formats since he's capable of making an impact on both ends of the court on a consistent basis. He's averaging 13.5 points, 11.3 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.7 blocks and 1.2 steals per game since the start of January.

Mikal Bridges - Explodes for 33 points Monday Bridges posted 33 points (12-24 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Monday's 147-114 win over Utah.

Impact Bridges cleared the 30-point mark for the seventh time this season, and his contributions were pivotal in seeing the Nets blow the Jazz away. Bridges has scored at least 15 points in all but one of his 13 January appearances, a span in which he's averaging 24.0 points per game while firmly settling as Brooklyn's primary offensive weapon. He's also putting up a career-best 21.9 points per game over the course of the entire 2023-24 campaign.
