The Nets are expecting to get their last missing player back Friday, while they’re hoping to see others get back in sync.
Royce O’Neale is slated to return in Toronto against the Raptors, a source told The Post. The veteran wing had missed the wins at Indiana and Washington due to personal reasons, but with Brooklyn enjoying a rare three-day span between games, he should rejoin the team this week barring any news or setbacks. Simmons had 10 points, six rebounds and five assists on Monday against the Wizards, after having missed five of the prior six games with a left calf strain.
Claxton finished with nine points, seven boards and two blocks in his return after missing the previous two games with right hamstring tightness. He grew into the game after a slow start, logging a scoreless 4:44 first quarter saddled with three quick fouls. Kristaps Porzingis had 12 of his 20 points in that quarter. But Claxton showed signs of shaking off the rust in the fourth, with four points, two boards and both of his blocks.
The Nets assigned Day’Ron Sharpe to G-League affiliate Long Island ahead of its game against the Westchester Knicks on Tuesday night at Nassau Coliseum. With the Nets not playing again until the Friday game north of the border, it was“We do like when those guys get minutes. There’s nothing like being able to play in a game and see the speed of the game. Ideally when they get a chance to play, we want them to play in the G-League,” Jacque Vaughn said. “You have to use that to your advantage.
“We all feel for her and feel for everyone who is wrongfully imprisoned or in some prison somewhere where they haven’t gotten their justice. We feel for her, for sure. I’m just grateful we all can share in the celebration with her being here. Still more work to do out in the world.”
