Sharpe (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

EDGE Analysis

Sharpe is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Knicks with an illness, per Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com.

EDGE Analysis

After sitting out Monday's loss to the Suns, Sharpe is at risk of missing consecutive outings with the ailment. Nic Claxton would likely take on all the playing time he can handle if Sharpe ends up being sidelined once again, while Danny Wolf would be set to play the backup center role Wednesday.

Sharpe (illness) is out for Monday's game against the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

In addition to an illness, Sharpe also has a throat contusion. During Sunday's loss to Chicago, he logged 19 minutes with five points, five rebounds and four assists. With Sharpe sidelined, the Nets could lean more on Danny Wolf.

Sharpe logged 14 points (4-7 FG, 6-6 FT), 12 rebounds and one block over 23 minutes off the bench during Monday's 113-105 loss to the Mavericks.

EDGE Analysis

It was the fifth-year center's second double-double of the season, with the other coming Oct. 27. Sharpe has been busy on the defensive end in January, and over the last six games (three starts), he's averaging 10.7 points, 9.3 boards, 2.7 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.8 blocks in 25.5 minutes while shooting 55.6 percent from the floor.

Sharpe totaled eight points (4-7 FG), 13 rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 21 minutes during Sunday's 103-98 loss to the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

Although Nic Claxton saw more minutes, Sharpe was far more effective off the bench for Brooklyn. It's worth mentioning that Claxton has been linked to moves elsewhere ahead of the trade deadline, and Sharpe's elevated play may make a transaction more likely.

Sharpe is coming off the bench in Friday's game against the Clippers, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Nets have deployed Sharpe as a starter for three consecutive games, though the club plans to have Nic Claxton return to his usual role in the first unit Friday. Sharpe has averaged 8.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.2 steals in 17.1 minutes per tilt across his last 10 games off the bench, so he should be able to maintain a decent level of fantasy value from the second unit.

Sharpe notched 17 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals over 32 minutes during Sunday's 127-115 win over the Nuggets.

EDGE Analysis

Sharpe made his second straight start, providing a full stat line to go with an efficient 17 points. The 2021 first-rounder is serving as Brooklyn's temporary starter at center while Nic Claxton tends to a personal matter, and Sharpe has flourished in his limited chances with the first unit since last season. Dating back to 2024-25, Sharpe has averaged 16.3 points, 11.5 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.5 blocks in 30.9 minutes per tilt over four games as a starter.

Sharpe logged 14 points (6-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals in 30 minutes during Friday's 119-99 loss to the Wizards.

EDGE Analysis

Sharpe moved into the starting lineup for the first time this season, replacing Nic Claxton, who was ruled out due to personal reasons. As hoped, Sharpe rewarded anyone who had him in their active lineup, falling one rebound short of what would have been just his second double-double of the season. He added four combined steals and blocks for good measure, a reminder of what he is capable of when afforded starter-level minutes. Claxton could return as soon as Sunday, meaning Sharpe's standard league run could very well end at one game. With that said, he is worth keeping a close eye on, just in case his role elevates at any point.

Sharpe is starting in Friday's game against the Wizards.

EDGE Analysis

The big man is getting a crack in the first unit in the absence of Nic Claxton (personal) on Friday. It'll be the first start of the season for Sharpe, who averaged 17.0 points, 15.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.5 blocks and 1.0 steals in 30.8 minutes per game covering a pair of regular-season starts in 2024-25.

Sharpe closed Thursday's 120-96 loss to the Rockets with eight points (4-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), eight rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 19 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

After shooting 1-for-3 from the field across 12 minutes in Monday's loss to Golden State, Sharpe bounced back and provided a solid all-around effort Thursday. The big man recorded a team- and career-high seven assists, dishing out at least five dimes for the third time this season. Sharpe continues to see relatively consistent playing time off the bench behind Nic Claxton, and the former has averaged 7.6 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.2 assists in 17.8 minutes per game over his last five outings.
