The Brooklyn Nets will be without their top scorer,
Michael Porter Jr.
, for at least two weeks due to a strained left hamstring, which could extend his absence for the season. Porter, who has averaged 24.2 points and 7.1 rebounds this season, underwent an MRI revealing the injury after previously missing three games for a sprained right ankle. The team’s poor 17-52 record suggests they may prioritize a top draft pick over rushing his return. Additionally, rookie
Egor Dёmin
is recovering from successful surgery for plantar fasciitis, further impacting the team’s lineup.
