Nets rule out Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) for Sunday
Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) will not play in Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets.
What It Means:
Claxton exited Friday's game against the Utah Jazz early after suffering a hamstring injury and was unable to return. He'll sit out Sunday's game against the Nuggets while he recovers.
With both Claxton and LaMarcus Aldridge (ankle) sidelined, Blake Griffin could see extended work Sunday. Griffin has a $5,200 salary on FanDuel and is projected to score 25.6 fantasy points.
