Nicolas Claxton Will Miss Third Straight Game Thursday
3 years agoBrooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Wizards as he continues to battle a tight left hamstring. Claxton is likely to remain among Brooklyn's starting five when healthy, but Thursday's acquisition of Andre Drummond figures to keep his minutes ceiling in check. With LaMarcus Aldridge (ankle) ruled out vs. Washington as well, Blake Griffin and Day'Ron Sharpe are worth looks in the DFS market due to the Nets' thin frontcourt rotation for the time being. Claxton's next chance to suit up comes Saturday against Miami.
