Henry Sims

Henry Sims will start Thursday for Brooklyn

Brooklyn Nets center Henry Sims will enter the starting five for Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers with center Brook Lopez (rest) unavailable.

What It Means:

With Thaddeus Young out on Tuesday, Thomas Robinson started and posted a huge double-double. However, Sims will get the nod as the starting center on Thursday. Sims played 21 minutes in Brooklyn's last game, and he could be in line for closer to 30 tonight with Lopez out.

Sims has a nERD of -0.1 in six games this season for the Nets. He is averaging 5.2 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in 14.7 minutes this year.
