Quincy Acy (finger sprain) ruled out Wednesday
Acy has officially been ruled out and won't play in Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons after previously being listed as questionable on the Brooklyn Nets' injury report with a sprained right middle finger that has now forced him to miss two consecutive games. The Nets will also be without Caris LeVert and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson due to their respective ailments, and the latter will remain sidelined for the seventh straight game with a strained right groin. Acy had started at power forward in place of Hollis-Jefferson for five consecutive contests prior to his injury, so the Nets will be relatively thin in the frontcourt once again with Tyler Zeller now in Milwaukee, and that lack of depth will force DeMarre Carroll to start at the four spot for the second time in as many days and allow Joe Harris to remain the starting lineup alongside Allen Crabbe on the wing. Additionally, Jahlil Okafor will remain locked in as the Nets primary backup center and logged 24 minutes in Acy's absence on Tuesday evening. That said, the main beneficiary with LeVert and Hollis-Jefferson off the court this season has been Spencer Dinwiddie, as he owns a +4.7% usage rate differential and has averaged 1.10 fantasy points per minute on DraftKings and 1.08 on FanDuel in this scenario.
Caris LeVert (head, knee) ruled out Wednesday; Quincy Acy (finger) questionable
Levert has officially been ruled out and won't play in Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons due to a sprained right knee and a possible concussion he sustained during Tuesday's loss, while Rondae Hollis-Jefferson will miss his seventh consecutive game with a strained right groin. Additionally, Quincy Acy is listed as questionable with a sprained right middle finger that has already forced him to miss one game. Acy had started at power forward in place of Hollis-Jefferson for five straight games, so the Nets could be relatively thin in the frontcourt once again with Tyler Zeller now in Milwaukee, and would likely force DeMarre Carroll to start at the four spot for the second time in as many games and allow Joe Harris to remain the starting lineup alongside Allen Crabbe on the wing. Additionally, Jahlil Okafor would remain locked in as the Nets primary backup center and logged 24 minutes in Acy's absence on Tuesday evening.
Quincy Acy (finger sprain) ruled out Tuesday
Acy has officially been ruled out and won't play in tonight's game against the Houston Rockets after previously being listed as questionable on the Brooklyn Nets' injury report with a sprained right middle finger, while Rondae Hollis-Jefferson remains sidelined with a strained right groin. Acy has started at power forward in place of Hollis-Jefferson for the last five games, so the Nets are going to be relatively thin in the frontcourt with Tyler Zeller now in Milwaukee, which will force DeMarre Carroll to start at the four spot and allow Joe Harris to enter the starting lineup alongside Allen Crabbe on the wing. With Zeller gone, Jahlil Okafor will be locked in as the Nets backup center while Timofey Mozgov may enter the rotation and log nominal minutes. Newly-promoted starter Jarrett Allen has seen his minutes creep into the upper-20s of late, and he owns a +2.7% usage rate differential with Acy and Hollis-Jefferson off the court this season, making him a fine play for tournament formats with rates of 0.97 fantasy points per minute on DraftKings and 1.01 on FanDuel in this scenario.
Jarrett Allen (foot) questionable for Friday; Quincy Acy (groin) will remain out
Allen has officially been listed as questionable on the Brooklyn Nets' injury report for tomorrow's game against the Los Angeles Lakers with a strained left foot that as already forced him to miss one game. Meanwhile, Quincy Acy will be remain sidelined for the third consecutive game with a strained left groin. If Allen is unable to suit up for the second time in as many games, Tyler Zeller would remain in the rotation and see a portion of the backup center minutes behind Timofey Mozgov. Should both Acy and Allen be unavailable, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson would become a virtual lock to eclipse the 30-minute plateau once again, while Trevor Booker should also see some extra run off the bench as well, putting him in tournament consideration depending on his price tag for Friday's slate.
DeMarre Carroll (ankle) questionable for Tuesday; Quincy Acy (groin) ruled out
Carroll has officially been listed as questionable on the Brooklyn Nets' injury report for tomorrow's game against the Phoenix Suns with a sore right ankle that has already forced him to miss one game. Additionally, Quincy Acy has already been ruled out and will miss his second straight contest with a strained left groin. With Acy sidelined again, Trevor Booker and Jarrett Allen will likely continue splitting his minute workload off the bench in an effort to pick up his slack in the frontcourt with the second unit. If Carroll is unable to suit up, Allen Crabbe should draw the start at small forward for the second consecutive game alongside Caris LeVert, though LeVert looks to have the upper hand in terms of a usage and potential upside, making him the clearly better tournament option. In fact, despite Crabbe seeing 27 minutes on Sunday, it was Joe Harris who primarily benefited from Carroll's absence and should continue to see extra playing time should he eventually be ruled out on Tuesday.
Sean Kilpatrick (hamstring) and Quincy Acy (ankle) both ruled OUT for tonight and Wednesday
Kilpatrick and Acy are done for the season, which opens up extra minutes for Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Caris LeVert in their final two games. RHJ has been limited to 25 minutes or so each night, despite playing excellent basketball as of late. After Acy’s ankle limited him to eight minutes last game, he finally got to 30 and he killed it: 16 points, 12 rebounds, three assists, three steals, and a block. Over the past ten games, RHJ’s usage has ticked up 1.2% while his per-minute fantasy production has increased 22.2% to 1.1 FD ppm. He's a great value option tonight. LeVert saw his minutes reach 25 without Kilpatrick in the lineup and he scored a team-high 19 points in their last game. He's another potential value option, but his lack of minutes caps his upside, as with most Nets.
Quincy Acy (ankle) ruled out for Monday; Sean Kilpatrick (hamstring) questionable
Acy has been battling an ankle injury for a couple of weeks now, he'll sit out tomorrow's game against the Celtics. Kilpatrick has missed the past two games with a hamstring injury. He's questionable for Monday. Both Spencer Dinwiddie and Caris LeVert have played a few extra minutes without Kilpatrick, and they've turned in solid fantasy days for their salaries in both contests. They each had a team-high 19 points against the Bulls on Saturday.
Quincy Acy (sore left ankle) available to play tonight
Acy is officially available to play in tonight's game against the Atlanta Hawks after previously being listed as probable on the Nets' injury report with a sore left ankle that had forced him to miss the two previous games. His return to the rotation will cut into the minutes of Justin Hamilton, who averaged just under 19 minutes per contest in the Nets' last two games. However, the Nets spread minutes throughout their deep rotation to such an extent that it's difficult to target any one player when they're thin at a position, let alone nearly healthy like they are this evening. In fact, the only player expected to be unavailable is Joe Harris, who has been sidelined for an extended period of time with a shoulder injury and was just ruled out for the remainder of the season.
Quincy Acy (sore left ankle) probable tonight
Acy has officially been upgraded to probable for tonight's game against the Atlanta Hawks due to a sore left ankle that had forced him to miss the two previous games.

Quincy Acy (left ankle soreness) and Joe Harris remain out for Saturday
Acy will not play in tomorrow's game against the Orlando Magic due to a sore left ankle that has now forced him to miss two consecutive games. Additionally, Joe Harris will remain sidelined with a sprained left shoulder. Acy has consistently been seeing minutes in the low 20s at power forward and center, so his absence does create a noticeable void in the Nets frontcourt rotation. Justin Hamilton was the primary beneficiary of Acy's absence in the Nets previous game, but there is no guarantee for that to continue given Brooklyn's fickle rotations. Fortunately, neither Hamilton or Andrew Nicholson should be relevant for daily formats on Saturday anyway.
