Day'Ron Sharpe Injury News & Updates
Dec 7, 2025
Hits for 16 off bench
Sharpe totaled 16 points (7-8 FG, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 19 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 119-101 victory over New Orleans.
ANALYSIS
The fifth-year center scored in double digits for a second straight game, the first time all season he's accomplished even that modest feat. Sharpe has struggled to make a consistent impact offensively this season, but he's been a little more active defensively of late -- over the last 10 games, he's averaging 7.7 points, 5.5 boards, 1.6 assists and 1.4 combined steals and blocks in 16.9 minutes from the second unit.
Dec 2, 2025
Disappointing season continues
Sharpe chipped in six points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds and three assists across 15 minutes during Monday's 116-103 win over the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has been mostly unimpactful this season, failing to take any real strides on either end of the court. Through 19 games, he has averaged just 6.5 points and 5.3 rebounds in 16.1 minutes per contest. As long as Nic Claxton is healthy, there is no reason to be holding Sharpe outside of deeper formats.
Nov 24, 2025
Grabs eight boards in loss
Sharpe finished Monday's 113-100 loss to New York with five points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal across 22 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe logged at least 20 minutes for just the second time this season, playing a slightly larger role with Nic Claxton struggling with a quad injury. It's been an uneventful season for Sharpe, playing second fiddle to Claxton, much like last year. He has limited streaming appeal, but really needs Claxton to sit out to have any chance of putting up meaningful value.
Nov 19, 2025
Season-best performance
Sharpe had 16 points (7-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and three steals across 18 minutes during Tuesday's 113-99 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe reminded everyone just what he is capable of, turning in his best all-around performance of the season. He continues to sit behind Nic Claxton in the rotation, resulting in a backup role, typically yielding minutes in the mid-teens. Despite this effort, there is no indication his playing time will increase moving forward, making him a viable streaming option at best.
Nov 14, 2025
Good to go Friday
Sharpe (lower body) is good to go for Friday's game against Orlando, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will shake off a probable tag and will likely reprise his role as the backup center. The big man holds averages of 6.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.9 steals in 15.9 minutes per contest across 10 games this season.
Nov 13, 2025
Probable for Friday
Sharpe (glute) is probable for Friday's game against Orlando, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After missing Tuesday's loss to Toronto with a glute contusion, Sharpe is likely to return to the lineup Friday. The 2021 first-rounder should handle the backup center role behind Nic Claxton. Sharpe has averaged 6.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.9 steals in 15.9 minutes per contest across 10 games this season, shooting 64.9 percent from the field.
Nov 11, 2025
Confirmed out for Tuesday
Sharpe (glute) won't play Tuesday against the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
After leaving Sunday's loss to the Knicks early due to left hamstring tightness, the injury is now being described as a left glute contusion. That's good news for Sharpe, and it means he'll likely be listed as day-to-day. Guys like Jalen Wilson, Noah Clowney and maybe Danny Wolf could see more opportunities with this news.
Nov 10, 2025
Questionable for Tuesday
Sharpe (hamstring) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Raptors, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe is in jeopardy of missing Tuesday's contest after leaving Sunday's loss to the Knicks early due to left hamstring tightness. If the 24-year-old center is unable to suit up against Toronto, Jalen Wilson and Noah Clowney are candidates for increased minutes, while rookie Danny Wolf could enter the rotation.
Nov 10, 2025
Set for testing on hamstring
Nets head coach Jordi Fernandez said after Sunday's 134-98 loss to the Knicks that Sharpe would undergo testing on his left hamstring Monday to determine the severity of the injury, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe contributed 10 points (3-3 FG, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block in 12 minutes before exiting Sunday's contest with 1:49 remaining in the third quarter. Though an official timeline for Sharpe's return won't be provided until his tests are completed, the Nets already seem to be bracing for him to miss at least their next game Tuesday versus the Raptors. Brooklyn recalled Danny Wolf from the G League's Long Island Nets on Monday, and the rookie first-round pick will be a candidate to enter the rotation as starting center Nic Claxton's top backup if Sharpe can't play Tuesday.
Nov 9, 2025
Dealing with hamstring issue
Sharpe exited Sunday's 134-98 loss to the Knicks in the third quarter and didn't return due to left hamstring tightness, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe logged 12 minutes before leaving the game, finishing with 10 points (3-3 FG, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block. The Nets are expected to provide an update on his status for Tuesday's game against the Raptors by Monday night. If he's ultimately ruled out, Jalen Wilson and Danny Wolf are candidates for increased minutes.
Nov 4, 2025
Pulls down seven rebounds in loss
Sharpe produced three points (1-1 FG, 1-4 FT), seven rebounds, one block and two steals in 20 minutes during Monday's 125-109 loss to Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe's role as the backup center behind Nic Claxton hs been consistent, but the amount of field goals he attempts varies widely from game to game. While Sharpe has been efficient from the field when he does take a shot, averaging 69.2 percent from the field, he only attempts 3.7 field goals per game for an average of 6.4 points, which is heavily inflated by 17 and 14 point performances earlier in the season.
Oct 28, 2025
Double-doubles in defeat
Sharpe ended with 17 points (6-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 12 rebounds and two assists in 22 minutes during Monday's 137-109 loss to the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
After totaling just eight points and five rebounds in 29 minutes over his previous two appearances, Sharpe secured his first double-double of the season. The 23-year-old center was one of four Brooklyn players to score in double figures and also led all players in rebounds. Sharpe should continue to serve as Nic Claxton's primary backup at center.
Oct 23, 2025
Spark off bench in loss
Sharpe provided 14 points (6-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, two blocks and one steal across 14 minutes during Wednesday's 136-117 loss to the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe stepped up off the bench and delivered when called upon, scoring an efficient 14 points -- a mark he reached or surpassed just four times in 50 regular-season games last year. Though he's firmly behind Nic Claxton on the depth chart, his strong showing on opening night proved that he can still fill up the stat sheet and make an impact in limited minutes.
Jun 30, 2025
Returning to Nets
Sharpe (knee) intends to sign a two-year, $12 million deal to return to the Nets, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
ANALYSIS
The Nets did not extend a $5.98 million qualifying offer to Sharpe, but they acting quickly to ensure that he returns to the franchise. Sharpe is coming off a career-best campaign with regular-season averages of 7.9 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 blocks across 18.2 minutes per game in 50 appearances. He'll likely win the backup job behind Nic Claxton in 2025-26, though he does have competition from rookie Danny Wolf.
Jun 29, 2025
Qualifying offer not extended
The Nets did not extend a $5.98 million qualifying offer to Sharpe (knee), who will now enter unrestricted free agency, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe is now set to explore other opportunities coming off a career-best year. The 23-year-old center averaged 7.9 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 blocks across 18.2 minutes per game in 50 regular-season outings (two starts) last season.
Apr 12, 2025
Not playing Sunday
Sharpe (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Knicks, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will end up missing the final 10 games of the season due to a right knee sprain. The 2021 first-round pick will end the 2024-25 regular season averaging career highs in points (7.9), rebounds (6.6), assists (1.8) and minutes per game (18.2) across 50 games (including two starts). Nic Claxton (rest) should start at center for Sunday's regular-season finale while Drew Timme serves as the backup.
Apr 10, 2025
Won't go Friday
Sharpe (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Timberwolves, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe hasn't seen any action since March 24 while dealing with a right knee sprain. He won't travel with the team to Minnesota and will have one more opportunity to play this season Sunday against the Knicks.
Apr 9, 2025
Another absence coming
Sharpe (knee) is out for Thursday's game against the Hawks, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will miss an eighth straight game due to a right knee sprain. It remains to be seen if he'll be available for any of the Nets' final two games of the season: on Friday against Minnesota and Sunday versus New York.
Apr 7, 2025
Out again Tuesday
Sharpe (knee) will not play Tuesday against the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will miss his seventh straight contest Tuesday due to a right knee sprain. His next chance to play comes Thursday against the Hawks.
Apr 5, 2025
Won't play Sunday
Sharpe (knee) is out for Sunday's game versus the Raptors, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will miss his sixth straight contest Sunday due to a right knee sprain. While there is no timetable for Sharpe's return, his next chance to suit up is Tuesday's matchup with New Orleans.
Mar 31, 2025
Limited in rehab
Head coach Jordi Fernandez said Monday that Sharpe has been limited to stationary work and will have his right knee assessed this week, Meghan Triplett of YES Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has not played in Brooklyn's last three games due to a right knee sprain, and based on Fernandez's comments Monday, it appears Sharpe still has a ways to go before returning to practice, let alone to games. Drew Timme signed a two-year deal with the Nets this past Thursday and should see the bulk of the backup center minutes behind Nic Claxton while Sharpe is sidelined.
Mar 30, 2025
Won't play Monday
Sharpe (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Dallas, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Monday will be the fourth straight game that Sharpe will miss due to a sprained right knee. His next chance to play is Thursday against Minnesota, but the severity of the injury is still being assessed and he does not have a clear timeline for a return.
Mar 29, 2025
Ruled out against Washington
Sharpe (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will miss a third straight game Saturday due to a sprained right knee. The Nets will likely lean heavily on Trendon Watford in the frontcourt, especially with Nic Claxton (rest) also ruled out for this game in Washington.
Mar 27, 2025
Ruled out for Friday
Sharpe (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Clippers, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will miss a second straight game for the Nets while dealing with a right knee sprain. Noah Clowney and Trendong Watford (illness) will likely be leaned on to shoulder the load in the frontcourt against Los Angeles.
Mar 25, 2025
Out with knee sprain
Sharpe is out for Wednesday's game against the Raptors with a right knee sprain, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
It's a new issue for Sharpe, who'll sit out for the first time since Jan. 8. His next chance to return comes Friday against the Clippers, and the Nets should turn to Trendon Watford and Noah Clowney for the backup center minutes against Toronto.
Mar 25, 2025
Stuffs stat sheet vs. Dallas
Sharpe closed Monday's 120-101 loss to the Mavericks with 10 points (5-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, four assists and four steals across 24 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe made the most of his minutes in this one and found a way to make an impact on both ends of the court, finishing just three boards shy of a double-double but also showing his elite defensive skills with four steals. Sharpe has been a solid option off the bench for Brooklyn, and he's averaging 6.1 points, 6.6 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.0 steals per game in 13 outings (one start) since the beginning of March.
Mar 22, 2025
Quiet in loss
Sharpe racked up two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists over 17 minutes during Saturday's 108-103 loss to the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was a non-factor in the loss, delivering arguably his worst all-around performance of the season. Despite his per-minute upside, Sharpe has been unable to move up in the rotation, playing as the primary backup behind Nic Claxton. With Claxton having been relatively healthy for the majority of the season, Sharpe's role has plateaued at around 18.0 minutes per game. In that time, he is averaging 7.9 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.7 combined steals and blocks.
Mar 15, 2025
Season-high 16 rebounds in start
Sharpe ended Saturday's 115-113 loss to the Celtics with nine points (4-10 FG, 1-2 FT), 16 rebounds and five assists across 31 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Making his second start of the season for the resting Nic Claxton, Sharpe crashed the glass for a season-high 16 rebounds Saturday to pace the Nets in this area. Given that Claxton is not dealing with an injury, Sharpe is likely to revert back to the second unit in Sunday's tilt against Atlanta. However, Sharpe has impressed in his limited run as a starter in 2024-25, averaging 17.0 points, 15.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.5 blocks, 1.0 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 30.8 minutes through two games in the first unit.
Mar 15, 2025
Promoted to starting role
Sharpe is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Celtics, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will move into the starting lineup since the Nets will be without Nic Claxton (rest) for this matchup. Sharpe has made just one appearance as a starter this season, posting 25 points, 15 rebounds, five assists, two steals and three blocks across 31 minutes in a loss to the Thunder on Feb. 26.
Mar 8, 2025
Makes defensive impact off bench
Sharpe contributed four points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals over 19 minutes during Saturday's 105-102 loss to Charlotte.
ANALYSIS
Despite coming off the bench, Sharpe led the Nets in blocks Saturday while sharing the center minutes with Nic Claxton. Sharpe's fantasy upside will remain limited as long as Claxton is healthy, though. Through nine games (one start) post-All-Star break, Sharpe has averaged 7.4 points, 6.9 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.7 blocks and 1.3 steals in 19.1 minutes.
Feb 28, 2025
Back to bench Friday
Sharpe is not in the Nets' starting lineup against the Trail Blazers on Friday, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe started Wednesday due to Nic Claxton serving a one-game suspension, and the former finished with 25 points, 15 rebounds, five assists, three blocks and two steals over 31 minutes. With Claxton returning for Friday's contest, Sharpe will retreat to the bench as serve as the Nets' backup center.
Feb 27, 2025
Outstanding in starting role
Sharpe accumulated 25 points (8-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 15 rebounds, five assists, three blocks and two steals in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 129-121 loss to the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe started for the first time this season due to the absence of Nic Claxton (suspension) and made his presence felt on both ends of the court after notching an impressive stat line. The former UNC star recorded season-high marks in points and rebounds while also tying his season-best output in assists. However, as good as he was Wednesday, he should return to the bench since Claxton will be eligible to return against the Trail Blazers on Friday.
Feb 26, 2025
Starting Wednesday
Sharpe is part of the Nets' starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Oklahoma City, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will step into Nic Claxton's (suspension) vacated spot in the starting lineup against the Thunder. It'll be Sharpe's first start of the campaign. In 35 appearances this season, Sharpe is averaging 8.2 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.6 assists across 17.3 minutes.
Feb 21, 2025
Collects four swats in defeat
Sharpe logged seven points (3-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt), 10 rebounds, four blocks, three assists and one steal in 20 minutes during Thursday's 110-97 loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe came three points shy of his fourth double-double of the season Thursday, and he struggled with efficiency while putting up double-digit shot attempts for just the fifth time in the 2024-25 campaign. However, the big man's game- and season-high four blocks across only 20 minutes were the highlight of his night. Sharpe will likely continue to receive fairly consistent playing time off the bench, as he has averaged 9.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.3 blocks and 0.8 steals in 17.5 minutes per game over his last 10 outings. He has shot 59.7 percent from the field in that 10-game span.
Feb 11, 2025
Nears double-double in win
Sharpe provided 14 points (7-12 FG), nine rebounds, two assists and one block across 19 minutes during Monday's 97-89 win over the Hornets.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has proven to be a valuable asset for the Nets while also becoming a factor from a fantasy perspective. The up-and-coming big man came one rebound shy of recording his fourth double-double of the season for Brooklyn while finishing two points away from tying his season-high point total (16). The 23-year-old is averaging a career-high 8.2 points per game to go along with 6.1 rebounds and 1.5 assists.
Feb 5, 2025
Available vs. Washington
Sharpe (hamstring) has been cleared to play in Wednesday's game against the Wizards, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After filling up the stat sheet defensively in Tuesday's win against the Rockets, finishing with three blocks and two steals, Sharpe will play in the second game of a back-to-back Wednesday against Washington. The 23-year-old big man is averaging a career-high 7.9 points per game this season to go along with 6.1 rebounds and 1.5 assists per contest, shooting 50 percent from the field for Brooklyn.
Feb 5, 2025
Iffy for Wednesday
Sharpe is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Wizards due to left hamstring tightness.
ANALYSIS
Wednesday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so the Nets could exercise caution here. Trendon Watford (rest) has already been ruled out, so the Nets may need Jalen Wilson to soak up some minutes if Sharpe can't go.
Feb 5, 2025
Strong two-way effort in win
Sharpe contributed eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, four assists, three blocks and two steals over 20 minutes during Tuesday's 99-97 victory over Houston.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe continues to push his claim for more playing time, producing another strong two-way performance. Despite averaging just 18.0 minutes per contest over the past six games, Sharpe has managed to put up averages of 8.8 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.2 combined steals and blocks. Should things change in Brooklyn down the stretch, there is a chance Sharpe could see an uptick in playing time before all is said and done.
Feb 1, 2025
Leads bench with 13 points
Sharpe tallied 13 points (6-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one block over 17 minutes during Saturday's 110-98 win over the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was questionable to play Saturday due to a left hamstring injury he suffered against the Hornets on Wednesday. He was able to play through the injury and ended up leading the Nets' reserve in scoring. It was the seventh time Sharpe scored in double digits since Jan. 1.
Feb 1, 2025
Looks like a go for Saturday
Updating a previous report, Sharpe (hamstring) is not listed on the official injury report for Saturday's game against Houston.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was injured in the team's last game against Charlotte, so his status might be worth checking ahead of the evening tipoff. However, it looks like he may be able to give it a go. With Noah Clowney out in the frontcourt for the Nets, there may be extra minutes to go around for Sharpe, assuming he does indeed suit up.
Jan 31, 2025
Ruled out for Saturday
Sharpe (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Houston.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will miss Saturday's contest after sustaining the left hamstring injury in Wednesday's win over the Hornets. However, the big man received clean scans and was able to practice Friday, which bodes well for his status ahead of Tuesday's rematch against Houston. With Sharpe sidelined, Trendon Watford and Nic Claxton will likely see an uptick in playing time.
Jan 31, 2025
Practices Friday
Head coach Jordi Fernandez said that Sharpe underwent scans on his hamstring that came back clean and was able to practice Friday, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe exited Wednesday's win over the Hornets in the second quarter and didn't return due to the hamstring injury. However, the big man's clean scans and presence at practice bodes well for his status ahead of Saturday's matchup against Houston. In his last five outings entering Wednesday, Sharpe had averaged 9.2 points and 6.4 rebounds in 18.6 minutes per game.
Jan 29, 2025
Leaves early with injury
Sharpe leaves Wednesday's game against the Hornets with a hamstring tightness, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was forced to leave Wednesday's game in Charlotte early due to a hamstring issue. The 23-year-old big man played only 10 minutes for the Nets against the Hornets before being ruled out for the rest of the game, finishing his night with five points, rebounds and an assist.
Jan 28, 2025
Double-doubles off bench
Sharpe contributed 12 points (4-7 FG, 4-4 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist, one block and three steals across 23 minutes during Monday's 110-96 loss to the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe recorded his third double-double of the season, continuing to flash some nice upside despite his limited role. Nic Claxton was battling foul issues throughout the contest, allowing Sharpe to see a handful of extra minutes. While there could very well come a time when Sharpe is playing meaningful minutes on a nightly basis, it appears as though we aren't quite there yet.
Jan 19, 2025
Suiting up Sunday
Sharpe (eye) is available for Sunday's game against the Thunder, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was added to the injury report earlier Sunday with an eye injury, but the big man will suit up and should see minutes off the bench. He's averaging 7.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.7 steals in 17.4 minutes per game this season.
Jan 19, 2025
Iffy for Sunday
Sharpe has been downgraded to questionable for Sunday's game against the Thunder with a right eye injury, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was a late addition to the injury report with what appears to be a new issue. Sharpe has fared well in limited minutes this season, averaging 7.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.7 steals in 17.4 minutes. If he's unable to play, guys like Jalen Wilson and Tosan Evbuomwan could see more playing time.
Jan 16, 2025
Grabs season-high 14 boards
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.
ANALYSIS
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.
Jan 9, 2025
Will suit up for Friday
Sharpe (illness) is available for Friday's game against Denver, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will return to game action after missing Wednesday's loss to Detroit due to the illness. Over his last 10 appearances, the big man has averaged 6.7 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.7 assists across 16.9 minutes per contest.
Jan 8, 2025
Ruled out Wednesday
Sharpe (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Detroit, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
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.
Jan 8, 2025
Iffy for Wednesday
Sharpe (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pistons, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was a late addition to the injury report which doesn't bode well for his status. The timing is unfortunate for Sharpe, as he posted 16 points (8-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt), 13 rebounds and five assists over 22 minutes in Monday's loss to the Pacers for arguably his best performance of the season. If Sharpe is unable to play Wednesday, Noah Clowney, Jalen Wilson and possibly Tosan Evbuomwan could be more involved.
Jan 7, 2025
Impressive off bench Monday
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.
ANALYSIS
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 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.
Dec 30, 2024
Productive in 16 minutes
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.
ANALYSIS
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. He's averaging 15.1 minutes across 10 appearances, limiting his appeal to deeper formats.
Dec 17, 2024
Solid showing in Monday's loss
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.
ANALYSIS
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.
Dec 3, 2024
Serves as backup center in debut
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.
ANALYSIS
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.
Dec 2, 2024
Available for Monday
Sharpe (hamstring) is available for Monday's game against the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was cleared for on-court activities back on Nov. 27 and now appears set to make his season debut. He's likely to have restrictions in his first game back, but he's someone to watch in deeper formats with so many injuries in Brooklyn.
Nov 30, 2024
Not playing vs. Orlando
Sharpe (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against the Magic, Meghan Triplett of YES Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was cleared for on-court activities on Nov. 27, and while his return should come soon, this matchup against the Magic comes too soon for him. The big man will aim to return for the second leg of his back-to-back set against the Bulls on Monday.
Nov 27, 2024
Cleared for practice
Sharpe (hamstring) has been cleared to return to on-court team activities, the Nets announced Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
The Nets are hopeful to have Sharpe back within a week, putting a potential return on Dec. 1 against the Magic on the table. With so many injuries in Brooklyn, Sharpe has enough upside to make him worth a look as a stash in deeper formats.
Nov 21, 2024
Progressing in recovery
Sharpe (hamstring) has begun 1-on-1 workouts with coaches and is expected to be integrated into team activities in the next 7-10 days, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has yet to play this season due to a left hamstring strain. However, Sharpe appears to be progressing well in his recovery and could return to action at the start of December if he doesn't suffer any setbacks.
Nov 18, 2024
Still working through injury
Sharpe (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Charlotte.
ANALYSIS
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.
Oct 7, 2024
Out at least six weeks
Sharpe will miss at least six weeks with a left hamstring strain, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
This is a brutal blow for the Nets, as Sharpe is one of the most reliable backup centers in the NBA. Trendon Watford is also battling a hamstring strain and is expected to miss a couple weeks. Based on Sharpe's timetable, the earliest he could return is Nov. 19 against the Hornets. Noah Clowney could see increased run to open the season as a result, while Nic Claxton could have a higher floor in fantasy basketball.
Oct 4, 2024
Hamstring issue emerges
Sharpe is being evaluated for a hamstring injury, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has fully recovered from a right wrist effusion from last year but now appears to be dealing with a new hamstring injury. His status for Tuesday's preseason opener against the Clippers is in question.
Oct 2, 2024
Appears good to go
Sharpe (wrist) participated in Brooklyn's practice Wednesday, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe battled a right wrist effusion at the end of the 2023-24 season, but the 22-year-old had a smooth offseason of recovery. He enters training camp competing with Noah Clowney for back-up frontcourt minutes.
Apr 13, 2024
Won't play season finale Sunday
Sharpe (wrist) is out for Sunday's game against the 76ers, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe ends the regular season having missed three of Brooklyn's last six games, and while the game had some ups and downs throughout the campaign, he ended up scoring in double digits in 15 different appearances despite playing mostly off the bench. The third-year big man averaged 6.8 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.4 assists across 15.1 minutes per game this season, with each of those figures representing career-high marks for him.
Apr 12, 2024
Officially ruled out
Sharpe (wrist) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Knicks, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was downgraded from questionable to doubtful in the hours leading up to Friday's tipoff, so it isn't very surprising to see him ruled out. Trendon Watford could see additional playing time against the Knicks, while Sharpe's final chance to play during the regular season will be Sunday against Philadelphia.
Apr 12, 2024
Now unlikely to play Friday
Sharpe (wrist) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game versus the Knicks, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has been downgraded from questionable to out Friday due to right wrist effusion. If he's ultimately ruled out, Trendon Watford is a candidate to receive increased playing time.
Apr 11, 2024
Questionable for Friday
Sharpe (right wrist effusion) is questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was a late addition to the injury report which is not exactly a great sign. He's had a very limited role lately, averaging 11.7 minutes in his last nine appearances.
Mar 30, 2024
Muted role Friday
Sharpe supplied two points (1-1 FG) and three rebounds across six minutes during Friday's 125-108 win over the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe played just six minutes off the bench, the fewest he has played when healthy since the second game of the regular season. Despite having a fantasy-friendly game, Sharpe simply doesn't see enough playing time to warrant serious attention. He is someone to watch heading into next season, should the Nets opt to play him more often.
Mar 20, 2024
Huge night on glass
Sharpe finished with eight points (4-11 FG), 17 rebounds, three assists and two blocks over 24 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 104-91 loss to the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
The 17 boards were a career high for Sharpe, topping the 15 he pulled down against the Knicks on Dec. 20. The third-year center has only 20 rebounds over the prior five games combined however, and he hasn't recorded a double-double since Jan. 3. Tuesday was also the first time in March Sharpe had played 20-plus minutes in a game, and without a more consistent role in the Brooklyn rotation, he's tough to roster in almost any format.
Mar 19, 2024
Plays well in loss
Sharpe finished Sunday's 122-115 overtime loss to the Spurs with 15 points (7-9 FG, 1-3 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 19 minutes.
ANALYSIS
This was Sharpe's largest workload in March, and he reached double figures for the first time since Feb. 29. Sharpe is a strong per-minute player in fantasy basketball, but he's averaged just 14.6 minutes through seven March appearances.
Mar 9, 2024
Good to go
Sharpe (wrist) is available for Saturday's game in Charlotte, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was given a probable designation on Brooklyn's initial injury report, so this progress is not surprising. He is returning from a two-game absence stemming from a wrist injury. The 22-year-old has averaged 6.7 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 0.3 triples across 14.0 minutes over his last nine games.
Mar 8, 2024
Likely to play Saturday
Sharpe (wrist) is probable for Saturday's game versus Charlotte, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe is expected to return to action Saturday after missing Brooklyn's previous two contests with a right wrist contusion. If Sharpe is further upgraded to available, he should serve as Brooklyn's primary backup center behind Nic Claxton.
Mar 7, 2024
Ruled out against Philadelphia
Sharpe (wrist) won't play in Thursday's game versus the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will miss his second consecutive game Thursday after being downgraded from questionable to out with a right wrist contusion. His next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Charlotte.
Mar 6, 2024
Iffy for Thursday
Sharpe (wrist) is questionable for Thursday's game versus the 76ers, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe is in danger of missing his second straight contest Thursday due to a right contusion. Jalen Wilson and Nic Claxton should continue to receive extended minutes if Sharpe remains out.
Mar 5, 2024
Will not play Tuesday
Sharpe (wrist) will not play in Tuesday's game against the 76ers, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe suffered a right wrist injury Monday against the Grizzlies, but the Nets are calling it a contusion. That suggests that he will likely be day-to-day moving forward, and it's possible the Nets are being cautious on the second leg of this back-to-back set. With Sharpe out, Nic Claxton could see a heavy workload and Noah Clowney may see some rare minutes after being recalled from the G League.
Mar 4, 2024
Suffers wrist injury
Sharpe had his wrist evaluated by the training staff after taking hard fall during Monday's 106-102 loss to Memphis, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports. Sharpe finished with 14 minutes of action, delivering four points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe's status will need to be monitored as Brooklyn closes a back-to-back set Tuesday against Philadelphia. Interim coach Kevin Ollie noted postgame that he had "no update" on Sharpe's expected availability for Tuesday, per Barnes. Nicolas Claxton was sharp with the lion's share of the workload Monday, delivering 21 points (8-10 FG) and six rebounds in 33 minutes.
Mar 1, 2024
Impressive off bench Thursday
Sharpe amassed 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 20 minutes during Thursday's 124-97 victory over the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe played fewer minutes than Nic Claxton and Dorian Finney-Smith, but he outplayed them both with an efficient outing -- he only missed two shots from the field while ending two boards shy of a double-double. Sharpe can get the job done on both ends of the court when given enough minutes, but his fantasy upside will remain limited if he continues to play off the bench on a regular basis.
Feb 27, 2024
Eight points, eight boards in win
Sharpe produced eight points (4-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), eight rebounds and two assists across 15 minutes during Monday's 111-86 win over the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe is the league's second-most impactful rebounder on a per-minute basis this season, trailing only Andre Drummond. He is averaging a modest 7.0 points and 6.7 rebounds with no defensive playmaking across three contests since the All-Star break, but his categorical dominance makes him worth monitoring down the stretch.
Feb 14, 2024
Strong per-minute producer in return
Sharpe (knee) tallied six points (2-3 FG, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist across nine minutes in Tuesday's 118-110 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
In his return from a 15-game absence due to a hyperextended left knee, Sharpe was a plus-3 during his time on the court and produced quality numbers, but he may not have a pathway to consistently see 15-plus minutes off the bench while the Nets have all of their key frontcourt options available. However, Sharpe is off the injury report for Wednesday's rematch with Boston and could face less of a challenge for the backup minutes behind starting center Nic Claxton, as Ben Simmons (knee) is resting for the second leg of a back-to-back set.
Feb 12, 2024
Says he'll play Tuesday
Sharpe (knee) said Monday that he'll play in Tuesday's game against the Celtics, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has missed over a month due to a left knee injury, but he'll be able to return to action in the first half of a back-to-back set Tuesday. He averaged 7.5 points and 7.0 rebounds in 16.0 minutes per game prior to his injury, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him face some restrictions Tuesday following his lengthy absence.
Feb 6, 2024
Still out indefinitely
Sharpe (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe hyperextended his left knee Jan. 7 and hasn't played since. He doesn't have a return timetable and hasn't been cleared for full-contract drills, so he can be considered week-to-week.
Jan 31, 2024
Remains out
Sharpe (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe hasn't played since hyperextending his left knee Jan. 7 and still doesn't have a return timetable. He went through an individual workout Monday but still hasn't been cleared for contact, per Evan Barnes of Newsday. Sharpe can be considered week-to-week at this point.
Jan 23, 2024
No timetable for return
Sharpe (knee) is ramping up conditioning and weight room activities, although he does not have a timeline for returning to action, Lucas Kaplan of NetsDaily reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe hyperextended his left knee on Jan. 7 and has been sidelined since. The 22-year-old was logging a career-high 16.0 minutes per game across 37 appearances for Brooklyn prior to the injury, producing 7.5 points and 7.0 rebounds per game.
Jan 9, 2024
Re-evaluated in two weeks
Sharpe was diagnosed with a hyperextended left knee Tuesday and will be re-evaluated in about two weeks, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe suffered the injury Sunday against Portland and his absence will be a blow to the Nets, as he's been fantastic off the bench. Given this timeframe, it's likely that Sharpe will miss at least six games, with the earliest potential return being Jan. 25 against Minnesota. The Nets aren't afraid of using small-ball lineups, so guys like Dorian Finney-Smith and Royce O'Neale could see an uptick in minutes. Starting center Nic Claxton could also have a higher fantasy floor in the short term.
Jan 7, 2024
Slated for MRI
Sharpe (knee) will undergo an MRI on Monday, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe suffered a left knee sprain during Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers, and he'll require additional imaging in Brooklyn on Monday to determine the extent of his injury. He won't make the initial trip to Paris with the rest of the team ahead of Thursday's game against Cleveland, but coach Jacque Vaughn said that Sharpe could potentially join the team later, depending on the severity of his injury.
Jan 7, 2024
Won't return Sunday
Sharpe will not return to Sunday's contest after suffering a left knee sprain, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was helped to the locker room after suffering the injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest. The initial diagnosis of a knee sprain will certainly be followed by additional testing for the 22-year-old. If he dodged a major injury, he'll have three full days of rest until Brooklyn next takes the court Thursday against Cleveland.
Jan 7, 2024
Heads to locker room
Sharpe went to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers due to an apparent leg injury, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe went down after contesting a layup in the closing minutes of Sunday's matchup and appeared to be in considerable pain afterward. The severity of his injury isn't yet clear, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him out for the rest of the game since he exited with just over three minutes remaining. Prior to his departure, he tallied 11 points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and a block in 17 minutes.
Jan 4, 2024
Double-doubles off bench
Sharpe had 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-6 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 20 minutes during Wednesday's 112-101 loss to the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
The Nets struggled offensively in this game, but Sharpe posted a solid performance on both ends of the court and made the most of his minutes while putting up his sixth double-double of the campaign -- all while playing off the bench. Sharpe has been a productive player of late, averaging 9.8 points and 8.0 rebounds per game while logging 17.2 minutes per contest.
Jan 2, 2024
Near double-double in blowout loss
Sharpe finished Tuesday's 112-85 loss to the Pelicans with 12 points (6-9 FG), nine rebounds, two assists and one block over 17 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has been one rebound away from a double-double in two of his last three games. He was the most efficient scorer on the night in a game when the Nets scored just 34 points in the first half. He's now scored in double-digits in six of his last seven games.
Dec 29, 2023
Nears double-double off bench
Sharpe provided 10 points (5-7 FG), nine rebounds and three assists across 18 minutes during Friday's 110-104 loss to the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe led all bench players in Friday's contest in rebounds while ending as one of six Nets with a double-digit point total and finishing one board short of a double-double to lead the second unit. Sharpe has reached the double-digit scoring mark in five straight games, adding nine or more rebounds in three of those contests.
Dec 29, 2023
Back to bench
Sharpe won't start Friday's game against the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will slide back to a bench role after garnering a spot start Wednesday in Nic Claxton's absence. Sharpe has scored in double figures in four games in a row, averaging 11.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.8 blocks and 1.0 steals in 18.5 minutes during that stretch.
Dec 28, 2023
Efficient in loss to Bucks
Sharpe notched 12 points (5-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one block over 16 minutes during Wednesday's 144-122 loss to Milwaukee.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was one of several non-regulars who got trusted into a starting role Wednesday, and he responded with solid numbers on both ends of the court. Sharpe has shown he can perform when given enough minutes, but he is expected to return to a bench role against the Wizards on Friday, limiting his upside considerably.
Dec 27, 2023
Starting sans Claxton
Sharpe is in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will replace Nic Claxton (ankle) in the starting lineup Wednesday. While Sharpe is making his first start of the season against Milwaukee, he has recorded double-doubles in two of his last three appearances coming off the bench.
Dec 26, 2023
Delivers multi-cat special
Sharpe accumulated 11 points (3-4 FG, 5-7 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists, four blocks and two steals across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 118-112 win over Detroit.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was fantastic in limited minutes, recording his second double-double in the past three games, adding a season-high six combined steals and blocks. Despite playing just 19.2 minutes per game over the past four games, Sharpe has been a top 90 player, averaging 11.0 points, 9.8 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.5 blocks. While he isn't a must-roster player by any means, he is doing enough to be picked up, just in case he can maintain 12-team production.
Dec 23, 2023
Double-double off bench Friday
Sharpe finished with 13 points (5-8 FG, 3-6 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, two blocks and two steals over 18 minutes off the bench during Friday's 122-117 loss to Denver.
ANALYSIS
The third-year center produced his fourth double-double of the season, and Sharpe has supplied double-digit boards five times in 10 December games despite averaging just 17.3 minutes a night over that stretch. The Nets have been unwilling to increase his role, even when Nic Claxton was sidelined early in the season, but Sharpe is finding a way to contribute even with limited court time.
Dec 21, 2023
Dominates offensive glass
Sharpe registered nine points (3-7 FG, 3-4 FT), 15 rebounds, three assists and one steal over 19 minutes during Wednesday's 121-102 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe's nine offensive boards helped him record a season-high 15 rebounds while coming off the bench in Wednesday's loss. Despite grabbing double-digit rebounds in eight games this season, the 22-year-old big man has recorded just three double-doubles.
Dec 15, 2023
Paces team in rebounds
Sharpe provided eight points (4-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt), 13 rebounds, five assists and one block over 26 minutes during Thursday's 124-101 loss to the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe saw an uptick in playing time Thursday after playing just eight minutes during Wednesday's win over Phoenix. He made the most of his increased minutes and came within two points of a double-double while securing double-digit boards for the third time in his last five appearances. Across those five outings, the 22-year-old has averaged 7.6 points, 8.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 17.4 minutes per game.
Dec 9, 2023
Has double-double off bench
Sharpe totalled 15 points (7-13 FG, 1-1 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 20 minutes during Friday's 124-97 victory over the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
It was Sharpe's third double-double of the season and the second straight game he had 10-plus rebounds. His five offensive rebounds led the team as he got extended playing time off the bench in a blowout win. Sharpe has now played 20-plus minutes in two of his last three games and his minutes have steadily increased as the season has progressed.
Nov 27, 2023
Nearly double-doubles
Sharpe finished with nine points (4-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and one block over 27 minutes during Sunday's 118-109 victory over the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Nic Claxton missed Sunday's game with an ankle issue, and it's unclear if he'll be able to play Tuesday against the Raptors. Although he didn't start Sunday, Sharpe made a big impact for the Nets and gave the coaching staff something to think about. He has fared well in limited minutes all season, posting averages of 6.6 points, 6.6 rebounds and 0.8 blocks in 15.1 minutes per game.
Nov 15, 2023
Bags second double-double
Sharpe posted 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-5 FT), 10 rebounds and one block across 24 minutes in Tuesday's 124-104 loss to the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe came away with his second double-double of the season, clearing 20 minutes for the first time due in large part to starting center Nic Claxton battling foul trouble early on during the contest. Even while seeing just 14.0 minutes per game over his 11 appearances, Sharpe has averaged 7.1 points, 6.6 rebounds and 0.5 blocks, numbers that would make him intriguing if he can take hold of a more sizable role. However, considering he didn't see his playing time spike dramatically while Claxton recently missed eight consecutive games, it's difficult to envision Sharpe getting to 20 minutes with any sort of regularity.
Nov 13, 2023
Pulls down 12 rebounds
Sharpe racked up eight points (3-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 19 minutes during Sunday's 102-94 win over the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
The 12 rebounds mark a season high for Sharpe, and it's notable that he did this despite Nic Claxton's return from an ankle issue. Ben Simmons is currently out with a hip issue and is day-to-day, so his return could complicate Sharpe's path to minutes since Simmons can be deployed as a small-ball center.
Nov 8, 2023
Records double-double off bench
Sharpe racked up 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-3 FT), 10 rebounds and two steals across 19 minutes during Wednesday's 100-93 victory over the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe hauled in a team-high-tying rebound total while posting his first double-double of the season off the Nets bench in Wednesday's win over the Clippers. Sharpe has surpassed the double-digit rebound total twice this season while scoring 10 or more points in four contests.
Nov 4, 2023
Crashes glass off bench
Sharpe contributed six points (3-3 FG, 0-1 FT) and 10 rebounds over 15 minutes during Friday's 109-107 victory over the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe recorded a team-high 10 rebounds in Friday's victory despite coming off the bench. The 22-year-old has logged double-digit minutes in three straight games and could continue to see extended playing time with Nic Claxton (ankle) out.
Oct 31, 2023
Excellent in limited minutes
Sharpe contributed 11 points (5-8 FG, 1-3 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one block in 10 minutes during Monday's 133-121 win over Charlotte.
ANALYSIS
The workload wasn't ideal, but Sharpe made a case for a larger role with his play Monday night. The concern here is that Nicolas Claxton (ankle) isn't even healthy yet, so it will be interesting to see how the frontcourt shapes up with Ben Simmons playing so well as a small-ball center.
Oct 26, 2023
Fourth-year option exercised
The Nets exercised Sharpe's fourth-year team option Thursday, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe came off the bench during Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Cavaliers and tallied four points, two rebounds and two blocks in 12 minutes. While his role off the bench could remain limited as the season progresses, Thursday's move will keep him under contract with the club through the 2024-25 campaign.
Oct 19, 2023
Double-doubles off bench
Sharpe notched 19 points (6-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 11 rebounds, two steals and three blocks across 21 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 107-104 preseason win over the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was impressive off the bench, missing just one shot from the field and ending as one of the top scoring weapons despite coming off the bench. Sharpe has looked good in the preseason, and he is firmly entrenched in the role of backup center behind Nic Claxton.
Oct 16, 2023
Cleared to play Monday
Sharpe (ankle) will play in Monday's preseason game against Philadelphia, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe sprained his left ankle during the Nets' preseason opener and was sidelined for about a week. He's competing for backup center minutes behind Nic Claxton.
Oct 12, 2023
Won't play Thursday
Sharpe (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's exhibition game against Israeli club Maccabi Ra'anana, Evan Barnes of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe sustained a left ankle sprain during Monday's preseason game against the Lakers and will be unavailable for Thursday's exhibition matchup. His next opportunity to play will be Monday against the 76ers.
Oct 11, 2023
Misses practice Wednesday
Sharpe (ankle) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Evan Barnes of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe is still dealing with a left ankle sprain that caused him to exit the Net's preseason game against the Lakers early. His status for the team's preseason matchup with the 76ers on Oct. 16 is uncertain.
Oct 9, 2023
Done for night
Sharpe (ankle) won't return to Monday's preseason game against the Lakers, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has been diagnosed with a left ankle sprain suffered during the first half of Monday's exhibition, so he'll be shut down for the rest of the night. His availability for the remainder of the preseason will be worth monitoring, as the Nets may shut him down to ensure he's healthy for the start of the 2023-24 campaign.
Oct 9, 2023
Picks up ankle injury
Sharpe is questionable to return to Monday's preseason game against the Lakers due to a left ankle injury.
ANALYSIS
The severity of Sharpe's injury is unclear at this time. Noah Clowney and Harry Giles could see additional opportunities the rest of the way if Sharpe is unable to return.
Apr 15, 2023
Coming off bench
Sharpe will return to a reserve role in Saturday's Game 1 tilt against the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
The Nets rested most of their usual starters in their regular-season finale, which resulted in Sharpe getting a rare spot-start. He is now set to return to his usual role providing depth in the team's frontcourt.
Apr 9, 2023
Starting at center
Sharpe will start Sunday's game against the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
With the Nets resting several regulars, Sharpe will move into the lineup at center in place of Nic Claxton (rest). In two previous starts this season, Sharpe averaged 14.0 points, 12.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 30.0 minutes per game.
Mar 31, 2023
Good to go Friday
Sharpe (ankle) is available for Friday's game versus the Hawks, Lucas Kaplan of NetsDaily reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has been upgraded from probable to available Friday with an ankle injury. He will likely continue to receive backup center minutes behind Nic Claxton.
Mar 30, 2023
Likely to play against Atlanta
Sharpe is probable for Friday's game versus the Hawks due to a left ankle sprain, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe is expected to play Friday despite dealing with an ankle injury. The second-year big man is averaging 9.4 points, 6.2 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in 14.0 minutes across his last five outings.
Mar 26, 2023
Near double-double off bench
Sharpe accumulated nine points (3-4 FG, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 14 minutes during Saturday's 129-100 victory over Miami.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe needed just 14 minutes to nearly post his second double-double over his past three matchups. The second-year big man has carved out a role as the primary backup center behind Nic Claxton and has appeared in four straight games, posting 10.0 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.5 blocks, 1.0 assists and 0.8 assists in 14.0 minutes during that stretch.
Mar 21, 2023
Leading scorer in double-double
Sharpe logged 20 points (8-12 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, two blocks and two steals across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 115-109 loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe lifted the Nets off the bench while posting team-high marks in scoring, rebounds and steals en route to a double-double performance. Sharpe, who tied a season-high mark in scoring, has tallied a double-double twice this season after doing so for the first time Dec. 10 against Indiana.
Mar 10, 2023
Fills stat sheet in loss
Sharpe totaled 11 points (5-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 30 minutes during Thursday's 118-113 loss to Milwaukee.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe struggled from the field and needed 13 shots to score 11 points, but he still posted a decent stat line with contributions across the five major categories. The former UNC star saw action for the first time since March 1 and is not receiving consistent minutes, meaning this performance was likely an outlier rather than a sign of things to come in the future.
Feb 11, 2023
Slides back to bench
Sharpe will not start Saturday's game against the 76ers, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe saw the spot start Thursday and produced eight points and 12 rebounds in 28 minutes but will return to the bench with Nic Claxton (hamstring) active. Although Sharpe currently sits behind Claxton and Ben Simmons on the depth chart, Brooklyn could make an effort to give him more minutes for development purposes.
Feb 9, 2023
Starting Thursday
Sharpe will join the first unit for Thursday's game against the Bulls, Alec Sturm of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Surprisingly, Sharpe will receive the starting nod at center despite Ben Simmons being available for the contest. It will be the 22-year-old's second start of the season and although he posted a double-double in 32 minutes of his first start, it's unlikely Sharpe replicates the performance Thursday.
Feb 9, 2023
Available Thursday
Sharpe (foot) is available Thursday against Chicago, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe dealt with a sore right foot ahead of Thursday's matchup but will be able to suit up against the Bulls. He's averaged 4.8 points and 5.3 rebounds in 14.7 minutes per game over his last six appearances, but his role could fluctuate slightly after T.J. Warren was traded to the Suns on Thursday.
Feb 8, 2023
Questionable against Chicago
Sharpe is questionable for Thursday's game versus the Bulls due to right foot soreness.
ANALYSIS
It's unclear when Sharpe suffered his injury, but it puts his status Thursday into question. If he's unable to suit up against Chicago, his next chance will be Saturday's matchup with Philadelphia.
Feb 1, 2023
Plays well once again in 27 minutes
Sharpe amassed nine points (4-7 FG, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds and one steal in 27 minutes during Wednesday's 139-96 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
This comes on the heels of a breakout performance on Monday when he scored eight points with 14 rebounds vs. the Lakers. Sharpe's 27-minute workload Wednesday night was his second-highest mark of the season, although garbage time was a factor with the Nets getting run out of the building. Sharpe has captured the attention of fantasy managers with his strong play, but it's worth noting that Ben Simmons (knee) could be back as soon as Saturday vs. the Wizards.
Jan 31, 2023
Fares well as second-unit center
Sharpe finished with eight points (4-8 FG), 14 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 21 minutes in Monday's 121-104 win over the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
The absence of Ben Simmons (knee) enabled Sharpe to step in as the second-unit center behind Nic Claxton for the second game in a row, and the second-year big man was able to come through with a fantasy-friendly line. Considering that he played just 14 minutes in a seven-point win over the Knicks two days prior, Sharpe won't be guaranteed a 20-minute role moving forward, even if Simmons misses additional time. With Claxton playing well this season and likely to take on 30 minutes in most games so long as he avoids foul trouble, Sharpe merely remains a name to monitor rather than someone that warrants a pickup in 12-team leagues or shallower.
Jan 28, 2023
Good to go
Sharpe (back) is available for Saturday's game against the Knicks, Chris Milholen of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe is returning from a two-game absence due to lower back soreness. It remains to be seen if he will crack the rotation upon his return.
Jan 27, 2023
Questionable against New York
Sharpe (back) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has missed the last two games due to lower back soreness, but he'll be in the mix to return against New York. However, his status shouldn't impact the Nets' rotation.
Jan 26, 2023
Won't play Thursday
Sharpe (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pistons, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was a late addition to the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against Philadelphia, and he'll be unavailable for both halves of the back-to-back set. His continued absence won't impact Brooklyn's rotation.
Jan 25, 2023
Ruled out Wednesday
Sharpe (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the 76ers, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe is dealing with lower back soreness and won't be able to play after being a late addition to the injury report. It's unclear whether he'll be available Thursday against Detroit, but his absence shouldn't impact the Nets' rotation.
Jan 25, 2023
Questionable against Philadelphia
Sharpe is questionable for Wednesday's game against the 76ers due to lower back soreness, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was a late addition to Wednesday's injury report, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to suit up. However, his status shouldn't impact Brooklyn's rotation.
Jan 15, 2023
Recalled to NBA
The Nets recalled Sharpe to the NBA club from the G League on Sunday, Chris Milholen of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe and Kessler Edwards have both been recalled and will be available for Sunday's matchup against Oklahoma City. Across 20 NBA appearances (one start), Sharpe is averaging 3.9 points and 3.2 rebounds in 8.9 minutes per game.
Jan 4, 2023
Sent to G League
The Nets assigned Sharpe to the Long Island Nets of the G League on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will be available for Wednesday's game versus the Raptors 905. The second-year big man played 21 minutes in Monday's matchup with the Spurs for Brooklyn, so he will likely return to the NBA soon.
Dec 30, 2022
Recalled by Brooklyn
Sharpe was recalled from the G League's Long Island Nets on Friday, Chris Milholen of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will rejoin Brooklyn after spending a week in the G League. Over 18 appearances with the parent club this year, he's averaged 3.5 points and 3.2 rebounds in 8.6 minutes per game.
Dec 23, 2022
Recalled from G League
The Nets recalled Sharpe from the Long Island Nets of the G League on Friday, Chris Milholen of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will be available for Friday's game against the Bucks. While he posted 20 points and 12 rebounds in 32 minutes during his last appearance for the Nets, he will likely receive a much smaller role against Milwaukee with most of the team healthy.
Dec 14, 2022
Back with Brooklyn
Sharpe was recalled from the G League's Long Island Nets on Wednesday, Chris Milholen of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was assigned to the G League on Tuesday, and he posted a double-double during Tuesday's game against Westchester. He hasn't been a consistent part of Brooklyn's rotation this year, averaging 3.6 points and 3.4 rebounds in 8.9 minutes per game.
Dec 10, 2022
Career-best performance in win
Sharpe finished Saturday's 136-133 victory over the Pacers with 20 points (8-13 FG, 4-5 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 32 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe moved into the starting lineup Saturday, taking full advantage of the opportunity. The Nets rested a bunch of their primary players, allowing Sharpe to slip into a much more sizeable role. While we have seen flashes from him in the past, his role is typically far too insignificant to warrant serious fantasy attention.
Dec 10, 2022
Starting Friday
Chris Milholen of NetsDaily.comSharpe will enter the starting five for Saturday's matchup against the Pacers, Chris Milholen reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will make his first start of the season with Brooklyn resting a majority of its regular rotation. He will handle as many center minutes as possible considering how thin the Nets will be, which makes him a fantastic streaming option. in 16 appearances this season he has averaged 2.6 points and 2.8 rebounds in 7.4 minutes.
Dec 2, 2022
Active Friday
Sharpe (illness) will play Friday against Toronto
ANALYSIS
Sharpe figures to see some center run off the bench for Brooklyn given Ben Simmons will sit out due to a knee injury. However, Sharpe should not garner any fantasy interest.
Dec 2, 2022
Recalled Friday
Sharpe (illness) was recalled from the G League's Long Island Nets on Friday, Chris Milholen of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe practiced with Long Island on Friday but will rejoin the parent club a few hours later. It's not yet clear whether he'll be available for Friday's game against Toronto.
Dec 2, 2022
Practicing with G League squad
Sharpe (illness) has been sent to practice with the Long Island Nets on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe hasn't appeared in a game since Nov. 23 and has recently dealt with a non-COVID illness. He was likely assigned to the G League to knock off some rust and his stay with Long Island may be brief.
Nov 30, 2022
Won't play Wednesday
Sharpe won't suit up for Wednesday's game versus the Wizards, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe's absence is due to a non-COVID illness, so it seems unlikely he's facing a long-term stay on the sidelines. He hasn't been part of the rotation lately, so his absence shouldn't mean much from a fantasy standpoint. Sharpe's next chance to return arrives Friday versus the Raptors.
Nov 30, 2022
Dealing with non-COVID illness
Sharpe is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Wizards due to a non-COVID illness, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was a late addition to the injury report due to an aliment and will likely be a game-time decision ahead of Wednesday's matchup. The backup big man hasn't seen the floor in three straight games, so his potential absence shouldn't have a significant impact on Brooklyn's rotation.
Nov 14, 2022
Early-season struggles continue
Sharpe amassed zero points (0-1 FG) and four rebounds across four minutes during Sunday's 116-103 loss to the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe barely saw the floor in the loss, playing few than five minutes for the fifth consecutive game. Even with Nic Claxton leaving early due to an eye injury, Sharpe was unable to make the most of what could have been a nice opportunity. Despite a small amount of upside, Sharpe can obviously be ignored in just about every format.
Oct 17, 2022
Team option picked up
Brooklyn exercised Sharpe's third-year team option Monday, which keeps him under contract through the 2023-24 campaign, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe started eight of his 32 appearances for the Nets as a rookie and averaged 6.2 points and 5.0 rebounds across 12.2 minutes per game. With Andre Drummond gone, Sharpe could operate as the top center behind Nicolas Claxton, but it's also likely the Nets opt to run Ben Simmons at the five in certain lineups.
Oct 15, 2022
Sharp in preseason finale
Sharpe tallied 15 points (5-9 FG, 5-5 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and one steal across 25 minutes Friday in a 112-102 victory versus the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe led Brooklyn reserves with 25 minutes and notched the team's only double-double in the exhibition win. The second-year center played in four preseason contests, averaging 9.5 points, 7.2 boards and 1.8 steals over 18.5 minutes. He's in line to back up Nicolas Claxton at center during the regular season, and he's likely to see more than the 12.2 minutes per game he averaged as a rookie last year.
Apr 7, 2022
Rebound short of double-double
Sharpe produced 15 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one block in Tuesday's 133-116 loss to the Blue Coats.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was one of six to top double-digit points in the loss, and finished a rebound short of a double-double. The big man finished out the second half averaging 18.8 points and 13.1 rebounds in 31.9 minutes through 10 games.
Apr 6, 2022
Recalled to NBA club
Sharpe was recalled from the G League's Long Island Nets to Brooklyn on Wednesday, Alec Sturm of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Long Island was eliminated from the G League playoffs following a 133-1116 loss to the Delaware Blue Coats on Tuesday. Sharpe hasn't appeared in an NBA contest since Feb. 28, and with the Nets fighting for playoff positioning, it's unlikely the rookie big man cracks the rotation during the final three games of the regular season.
Mar 30, 2022
Returns to NBA squad
Sharpe was recalled from the G League's Long Island Nets on Wednesday, Christian Arnold of the Associated Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was sent down to the G League for Tuesday's contest against the Windy City Bulls after LaMarcus Aldridge (hip) was cleared for action. The rookie first-round pick totaled 21 points (9-16 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-4 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 28 minutes. He'll likely serve as a depth piece for Brooklyn, as its frontcourt is finally back to full strength.
Mar 27, 2022
Recalled to Brooklyn
Sharpe was recalled to the Nets from their G League affiliate Sunday, Christian Arnold of the Associated Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe hasn't appeared in an NBA contest since February, so it's unclear if he'll be a part of Brooklyn's rotation. The rookie put up a handful of monster performances during his most recent stint in the G League, including a 30-point, 22 rebound double-double against the Westchester Knicks.
Mar 16, 2022
Back with Brooklyn
Sharpe was recalled to the Nets on Wednesday, Christian Arnold of the Associated Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe tallied 30 points (12-25 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 22 rebounds, four blocks, two assists and two steals in 37 minutes during the Long Island Nets loss to the Westchester Knicks on Wednesday and was called up shortly after. He's made 32 appearances at the NBA level and has averaged 6.2 points and 5.0 rebounds during those contests, though he isn't expected to be available for Brooklyn's matchup with Dallas on Wednesday night.
Mar 13, 2022
Recalled to Brooklyn
Sharpe was recalled to Brooklyn on Sunday, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schiffer relays that Sharpe will be available for Sunday's contest against the Knicks, but he'll return to the G League when the Nets head to Orlando. He's made 32 appearances at the NBA level and has averaged 6.2 points and 5.0 rebounds in 12.2 minutes during those contests.
Mar 4, 2022
Sent to G League
Sharpe was assigned to the G League by the Nets on Friday, Chris Milholen of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe hasn't seen much playing time of late with Brooklyn's frontcourt getting healthy, so he'll head to the Long Island Nets to receive some playing time. He's averaged 6.2 points and 5.0 rebounds in 12.2 minutes over 32 NBA appearances this season, and he should rejoin the parent club if any frontcourt depth is required.
Feb 12, 2022
Double-double in Saturday's loss
Sharpe scored 10 points (5-6 FG, 0-3 FT) while adding 12 rebounds, three assists and a steal in 27 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 115-111 loss to the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Kyrie Irving was the only member of the Nets' starting five to make much of an impact, leaving plenty of opportunity for Sharpe to step up and deliver his second career double-double. The rookie center is seeing a bigger role lately given all the absences in the Brooklyn frontcourt, and Sharpe has responded by averaging 7.7 points, 7.5 boards and 1.0 assists in 17.9 minutes during the last 12 games in which he's seen action.
Feb 10, 2022
Solid numbers off bench
Sharpe scored nine points (3-7 FG, 3-4 FT) while adding 10 rebounds and two steals in 17 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 113-112 loss to the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
The rookie center has settled back into a bench role after getting a stint in the starting lineup in January, but Sharpe's main contributions have come on the glass. Over the last four games, he's averaging 6.5 points, 7.0 boards, 0.8 steals and 0.8 blocks in 17.8 minutes, but Sharpe could find his role shrinking once trade acquisition Andre Drummond is ready to join the Nets' rotation.
Feb 5, 2022
Sniffs double-double off bench
Sharpe closed with 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 16 minutes during Friday's 125-102 loss to Utah.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe started eight games in a row in January and while he has been moved back to the bench since then, he made the most of his limited on-court time in this one, ending just two boards away from what would've been his second double-double of the season. Despite the fact that he's had a few decent performances throughout the campaign, Sharpe can't be trusted in most fantasy formats due to his role off the bench and the lack of consistency on a game-to-game basis.
Jan 30, 2022
Can't crack rotation
Sharpe (coach's decision) didn't see the court in Sunday's 110-106 loss to the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
Though he was cleared to return from a one-game absence due to the illness, Sharpe was unable to head coach Steve Nash crack the rotation despite starting in each of his previous eight appearances. Even though LaMarcus Aldridge exited the contest early with an ankle sprain that will likely sideline him when Brooklyn returns to action Tuesday in Phoenix, Sharpe still found himself behind all of Nicolas Claxton, Aldridge, Blake Griffin and James Johnson in the pecking order for minutes at center.
Jan 28, 2022
Good to go Saturday
Sharpe (illness) is off the injury report ahead of Saturday's game against the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe returns following a one-game absence. He's started in his past eight appearances, but Nicolas Claxton will presumably enter the starting five sooner than later. Once that happens, Sharpe's 19.5 minutes per game during this stretch will likely be reduced.
Jan 26, 2022
Out Wednesday
Sharpe has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets due to a non-COVID illness, Billy Reinhardt of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe has made eight consecutive starts at center for the Nets, but they'll have to adjust Wednesday as he is sidelined with the illness. LaMarcus Aldridge and Blake Griffin could see increased run in the Nets' frontcourt as long as Sharpe is out.
Jan 24, 2022
Paces team in rebounds
Sharpe registered eight points (4-7 FG), nine rebounds and one block in 22 minutes during Sunday's 136-125 loss to Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe started a seventh consecutive game Sunday, and he remained productive on the boards while hitting 57.1 percent of his field-goal attempts in the loss. The 20-year-old has scored 10-plus points in four of his appearances since joining the starting lineup, and he's brought in at least six rebounds in each of those outings.
Jan 13, 2022
Stands out in starting role
Sharpe racked up 20 points (10-14 FG), seven rebounds and one block across 22 minutes before fouling out of Wednesday's 138-112 win over the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe made his first NBA start due to injuries to LaMarcus Aldridge (foot) and Nicolas Claxton (hamstring). The rookie wasn't overwhelmed by the opportunity, registering his highest point total of the season with an efficient effort from the field while tying a season high by corralling seven boards. Sharpe should continue getting extended run for as long as Aldridge and Claxton remain out of action.
Jan 12, 2022
Set for first NBA start
Sharpe will start Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Billy Reinhardt of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe delivered 14 points (6-6 FG, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and three blocks in 24 minutes off the bench Monday at Portland, and he'll now make his first NBA start Wednesday. LaMarcus Aldridge (foot) and Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) are sidelined, so Sharpe should see plenty of run at center for Brooklyn.
Jan 11, 2022
Shines off bench Monday
Sharpe closed with 14 points (6-6 FG, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and three blocks in 24 minutes during Monday's 114-108 loss to the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe entered the contest having failed to notch a double-digit point total in any of his first 13 NBA games, though he averaged only 6.8 minutes in those contests. The rookie blew past his previous career-best marks Monday with 24 minutes and 14 points while shooting a perfect 6-for-6 from the field. Sharpe also contributed three blocks, matching the total he had accumulated over his first 13 contests. LaMarcus Aldridge has missed two games with a foot injury and Nicolas Claxton exited Monday's contest with a hamstring injury, so Sharpe could again see extended playing time by necessity for however long both players remain out.
Jan 3, 2022
Perfect from field Monday
Sharpe (COVID-19 health and safety protocols) posted six points (3-3 FG) and four rebounds in nine minutes off the bench in Monday's 118-104 loss to the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe exited the protocols ahead of Saturday's four-point loss to the Clippers, but it wasn't until two days later that the rookie first-round pick made his return to action. The absence of LaMarcus Aldridge (foot) likely opened up a spot in the rotation for Sharpe, who was a plus-13 during his time on the court despite racking up five fouls. If Aldridge is deemed ready to go for Wednesday's game in Indiana, Sharpe likely won't play if the contest is competitive.
Dec 31, 2021
Not on injury report
Sharpe (COVID-19 protocols) isn't on the injury report for Saturday's game against the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe missed the last four games due to the league's health and safety protocols, but it appears as though he'll be available Saturday. Since the Nets are back to full strength in the frontcourt, Sharpe is unlikely to see significant playing time.
Dec 29, 2021
Remains out Thursday
Sharpe (COVID-19 protocols) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the 76ers, Billy Reinhardt of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe will miss a fourth consecutive game due to the league's health and safety protocols. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return, but he hasn't been a consistent part of the Nets' rotation this year.
Dec 27, 2021
Not playing Monday
Sharpe (COVID-19 health and safety protocols) remains out for Monday's game against the Clippers, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Monday marks Sharpe's ninth day in the protocols, so he should be ready to rejoin the Nets at some point later in the week, assuming he's not still dealing with symptoms of the virus. The rookie first-round pick is currently one of seven Brooklyn players in the protocols.
Dec 18, 2021
Enters protocols
Sharpe has entered health and safety protocols, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe is the 10th player in protocols for the Nets. Blake Griffin is the closest thing to a center available for Brooklyn on Saturday against the Magic.
Dec 14, 2021
Posts five blocks in win
Sharpe recorded 14 points (6-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, one steal and five blocks in Saturday's 117-110 win over the Skyhawks.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe struggled with his shot but made up for it with his defense, accruing the most blocks in the game. The forward amassed 32 minutes and should continue seeing around that while waiting for the next call to the NBA.
Dec 6, 2021
Rejoins Brooklyn
The Nets recalled Sharpe from the G League's Long Island Nets on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe looks like he could be available for the NBA team for its next game Tuesday in Dallas, but the rookie first-round pick is unlikely to crack head coach Steve Nash's rotation. Even with Blake Griffin recently losing out on a rotation spot in the Brooklyn frontcourt, the return of Nicolas Claxton from an extended absence due to an illness pushes Sharpe further down the depth chart.
Nov 22, 2021
Double-Double in win
Sharpe totaled 19 points (5-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists, two steals, and two blocks during Saturday's 114-110 win over the G League Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was a menace on both sides of the ball contributing in multiple stat categories. Unfortunately, this also includes five turnovers. The big man has put up a double-double in both games he has played in and should remain a solid piece in this starting five.
Nov 15, 2021
Available Tuesday
Sharpe (personal) rejoined the Nets on Monday and will be available for Tuesday's game against the Warriors, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie big man is back with the team after missing Sunday's 120-96 win over the Thunder while attending to the personal matter. Sharpe hasn't been featured in the Brooklyn rotation this season, and that's unlikely to change Tuesday even with Paul Millsap (personal) and Nicolas Claxton (illness) both sidelined.
Nov 13, 2021
Out Sunday
Millsap is out at Oklahoma City on Sunday because of personal reasons.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe is sitting out at least one game. Fantasy managers will not have benefited from the center anyways, considering he averaged 4.0 minutes across his last six Nets matchups.
Oct 21, 2021
Off injury report
Sharpe (toe) is off the injury report for Friday's game against the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Sharpe was unavailable for the opener due to a sprained right toe, but he's good to go for Friday. That said, it seems likely he'll be out of the rotation to start the year.
Oct 19, 2021
Unavailable Tuesday
Sharpe won't play in Tuesday's game against Milwaukee due to a right toe sprain, Billy Reinhardt of NetsDaily.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie apparently has a right toe sprain which will prevent him from being available during the season opener. Even once Sharpe returns to full strength though, it's unlikely that the 2021 1st round selection will see the floor, as he's currently buried on the team's depth chart behind LaMarcus Aldridge, Paul Millsap and Nicolas Claxton.
