Since returning from a 24-game absence due to injury, Cam Thomas has played in six of eight games. It was only two games ago, though, that he finally received over 30 minutes of playing time. With the Saturday/Sunday back-to-back, the Nets have decided to sit Thomas, Nic Claxton and Noah Clowney.

Thomas has been garnering a massive 35% usage rate over the last few weeks, so he will leave a huge usage vacuum on Saturday. D’Angelo Russell ($8,700 Showdown) and Cameron Johnson ($10,500) will likely soak up most of it.
Keon Johnson ($7,300) will likely get the start for Thomas.
Day’Ron Sharpe ($6,600) will likely get the start for Claxton. Sharpe averages 1.2 FPTS per minute and went for 25 points, 15 rebounds, five assists, two steals and three blocks in 31 minutes the last time he got the start. That was good for a whopping 62.75 FPTS.
