Michael Porter Jr.

With Terance Mann limited to 18 minutes after a two-game absence and the hard fall he took during the second half of Thursday's game, there was more room for Williams to contribute despite coming off the bench. The former lottery pick finished with his second 20-point game of the season and first since October 24. However, while Thursday was good, Williams' season-long fantasy value remains subpar. The only reason to consider adding him ahead of Sunday's game against the Pelicans would be if Mann and Michael Porter Jr. can't play.

Mann is back after missing Brooklyn's last two games. He'll fill the void left by Michael Porter Jr., who is sitting out due to lower back injury management. The Nets' other four starters are unchanged.

Mann, who has missed Brooklyn's last two games, should return to his usual place in the starting lineup. While Michael Porter Jr.'s absence frees up usage for multiple players, Mann has not been the kind of player capable of going off for a big scoring night. He's worth a look in deep leagues, but that's about it.

The injury is listed as "injury management," so it's likely just Porter Jr. getting a day of maintenance after playing on two of the last three nights. Drake Powell is also out for the Nets, so this would likely mean increased usage for Nic Claxton and Noah Clowney, and Terance Mann (ribs) could return to a larger role in the offense.

Michael Porter Jr. had 33 points and 10 rebounds and the Brooklyn Nets won consecutive games for the first time this season, beating the depleted Chicago Bulls 113-103 on Wednesday night.
