Rotowire
Sharpe has been downgraded to questionable for Sunday's game against the Thunder with a right eye injury, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

If he's unable to play, guys like Jalen Wilson and Tosan Evbuomwan could see more playing time.

Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Grabs season-high 14 boards
Rotowire
Sharpe accumulated 12 points (5-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-7 FT), 14 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 28 minutes during Wednesday's 126-67 loss to the Clippers.
Sharpe was active on both ends of the court and finished with a double-double in a game where his team lost by a whopping 59 points. The 14 boards were a season-high mark for Sharpe, who is finding ways to make his presence felt every time he gets minutes. That said, his upside will remain pretty low as long as he continues to play off the bench regularly.

Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Ruled out Wednesday
Rotowire
Sharpe (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Detroit, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Sharpe will be missing his first game since making his season debut Dec. 2, averaging 7.3 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.5 blocks over 16.7 minutes in that span. In Sharpe's absence, Nic Claxton and Noah Clowney will all see heavy usage until he returns.

Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Iffy for Wednesday
Rotowire
Sharpe is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pistons due to an illness, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Given that he's a late addition to the injury report, Sharpe may face an uphill battle for getting cleared to play ahead of Wednesday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff. The timing of the illness is unfortunate for Sharpe, who posted 16 points (8-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt), 13 rebounds and five assists over 22 minutes in Monday's loss to the Pacers in what was arguably his best performance of the season. If Sharpe is unable to play Wednesday, Noah Clowney could see more time as a reserve center behind Nic Claxton, which would open up more minutes at the forward spots.

Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Impressive off bench Monday
Rotowire
Sharpe closed Monday's 113-99 loss to the Pacers with 16 points (8-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt), 13 rebounds and five assists over 22 minutes.
Sharpe took advantage of an expanded role off the bench Monday to record his first double-double of the season. The former UNC star has logged at least 20 minutes in his last three games, and he's a player worth keeping close tabs on as a streaming option if he logs decent playing time. He's averaging 10.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 0.8 steals per game in the four outings in which he's logged 20 or more minutes this season.

Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Productive in 16 minutes
Rotowire
Sharpe contributed eight points (4-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 16 minutes during Sunday's 102-101 loss to the Magic.
Sharpe made the most of his limited minutes, though it will be tough for him to provide consistent fantasy value while Nic Claxton is upright. Sharpe is averaging 15.1 minutes across 10 appearances, limiting his appeal to deeper formats.

Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Solid showing in Monday's loss
Rotowire
Sharpe finished with 15 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and three steals in 20 minutes off the bench during Monday's 130-101 loss to Cleveland.
The backup center produced his best game yet since making a belated season debut Dec. 2 due to a hamstring injury he suffered in training camp. The Nets are in sell mode and may try to find a taker for Nic Claxton's contract, which runs through 2027-28. If he does get moved, Sharpe -- who is in the final year of his rookie deal and will be a restricted free agent this offseason -- could see his fantasy value soar in a starting role.

Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Serves as backup center in debut
Rotowire
Sharpe (hamstring) recorded four points (0-2 FG, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block in 16 minutes off the bench in Monday's 128-102 loss to the Bulls.
The Nets were shorthanded Monday with eight players sitting out with injuries, but the return of Sharpe at least helped shore up the Nets' depth in the frontcourt to some degree. Sharpe -- who had missed the Nets' first 21 games of the season with a left hamstring strain -- settled in as the backup center behind starter Nic Claxton, but it's unclear if the Nets will have room in the rotation for Sharpe once the club is back to full strength. At least until Noah Clowney (ankle) is cleared to play, however, Sharpe should have a regular spot on the second unit.

Rotowire
Sharpe (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Charlotte.
Sharpe suffered a left hamstring strain in early October during training camp. He was ruled out for at least six weeks due to the injury, so Sharpe could be close to making his 2024-25 regular-season debut. His next chance to do so will be Friday against the 76ers.

Rotowire
Sharpe will miss at least six weeks with a left hamstring strain, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Sharpe had been poised to enter the season as the top backup to starting center Nic Claxton, but his hamstring injury will likely keep him out until at least the second half of November. With Sharpe out of the mix, Noah Clowney could see increased run on the second unit to open the season, while Claxton's minutes floor could be higher.
