It’s Kids Day at the Barclays Center, where the first 5,000 attendees will receive a packed lunch. Pretty cool stuff. It’s also the beloved Brooklyn Net, D’Angelo Russell’s, playing Clays for the first time in a Nets uniform since 2019. We’re all in for a treat tonight, pun unintended.

Besides, this tank thing is understandable and all but Sean Marks’ recent comments show that the Nets aren’t necessarily locked into a long-term rebuild. It’s all about flexibility, so a loss would have a huge impact, but maybe they have something in mind that we don’t anticipate. In total, they fall back in the standings – two out of a play-in spot and five behind the sixth seed.

Game Overview | Brian Fleurantin

The game: It’s Children’s Day at Barclays! Children who go to the game tonight will receive a nice lunch box! This is the first home game of 2025 and D’Angelo Russell’s first home game with the Nets. Russell had a good first run with Brooklyn in the mid-2010s and is off to a good start in his return. The 76ers still have championship expectations, but injuries have made that dream farther away than ever. They still have time to claw their way into the playoffs, but it won’t be easy.

Injuries: No Maxwell Lewis, Bojan Bogdanovic or Trendon Watford. Cam Johnson sprained his ankle in the final seconds of Thursday’s game and is officially questionable. Cam Thomas and Noah Clowney are both questionable.

Jared McCain is out for the season with a torn ACL. KJ Martin is out due to a stress reaction in his left foot. Kelly Oubre Jr is doubtful due to a sprained left hand. Joel Embiid is questionable with left foot sprain + right sinus fracture.
