Injury report

New York Knicks

Nobody listed.

Brooklyn Nets

  • Nolan TraoréProbable· back Nov 14Report updated ·
    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Right Calf Tightness / Soreness (2026-11-14, BKN@MEM). Prior reporting (2026-11-13): Traore (calf) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against Memphis. Traore appears on track to suit up despite dealing with discomfort in his right calf. The guard's expected availability should help Brooklyn maintain its backcourt depth, though his fantasy appeal remains dependent on his playing time and opportunities in the rotation. His status should be confirmed ahead of Saturday's tipoff.

  • Mikel Brown Jr.Probable· back Nov 14Report updated ·
    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Illness (2026-11-14, BKN@MEM). Prior reporting (2026-11-14): Brown (illness) has been upgraded to probable for Saturday's game at Memphis. After initially being listed as questionable due to an illness, Brown is trending in the right direction following a two-game absence. The rookie guard's return would leave fewer minutes available for Keon Ellis and Terance Mann. Brown has averaged 15.2 points, 3.8 assists and 2.0 rebounds in 24.6 minutes per tilt over his last five outings.
