Chris Chiozza (adductor) sidelined for Nets against Trail Blazers

Brooklyn Nets point guard Chris Chiozza (right adductor tightness) is out for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

What It Means:

Chiozza made a spot-start on Tuesday but the Nets have their regular starters back for Thursday's seeding finale. The Nets are already locked into a first-round playoff series against the Toronto Raptors, so they may give extended minutes off the bench to the likes of Jeremiah Martin, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, and Dzanan Musa.

Per FanDuel Sportsbook, the Nets are 9.5-point underdogs on Thursday night.
