With 36.3 seconds left in the second quarter of Thursday’s game against the Washington Wizards, Aaron Nesmith was replaced by Ben Sheppard. Earlier, Nesmith collided with Jay Huff and stepped on his foot. Nesmith has now been ruled out for the remainder of the game.

Kobe Brown started the second half for Nesmith.

Prior to exiting, Nesmith contributed three points, two rebounds and an assist in 15 minutes of action.

Since the injury occurred prior to halftime and Nesmith was ruled out prior to the start of the second half, he is eligible for DraftKings Early Exit.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
