The Nets injury update is improving, with only Joe Harris out for the year following ankle surgery and Ben Simmons rehabbing his lower back issues, on the list nowadays. Considering the night when 10 players were out with a variety of injuries and illnesses early in the season, that’s not bad.
But as Seth Curry and Steve Nash noted Tuesday, Curry’s left ankle needs a lot of TLC and Simmons status remains uncertain, a “mystery” as one of his teammates described it. As Curry has said previously, he hurt his ankle weeks before the February 10 trade and managing it has been a tough go.
