Nets' Noah Clowney: Moves back to bench Friday
Clowney is not in the starting lineup for Friday's preseason game against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
The Nets will start Ben Simmons at center, and Clowney will head back to the bench. Given that Nic Claxton (hamstring) is expected to be ready for the regular-season opener against the Hawks next Wednesday, there's a strong chance Clowney will open the season as a backup option in the frontcourt, a role that would limit his fantasy upside considerably.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Drawing start Wednesday
Clowney will enter the starting lineup for Wednesday's preseason contest against Philadelphia, Sam DiGiovanni of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Clowney starts in place of Ben Simmons (rest). Clowney continuing to get reps as Brooklyn's hybrid power forward and center is enabled by Nic Claxton's (hamstring) absence as well.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Puts up 11 points off bench
Clowney finished with 11 points (5-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists and two steals across 22 minutes in Monday's 131-92 preseason win over the Wizards.
Clowney is fighting for minutes in the frontcourt ahead of the regular-season opener against the Hawks on Oct. 23, and the big man has been delivering solid performances in the preseason. Clowney has a clear path at logging backup minutes behind Nic Claxton (hamstring) once the regular season begins, as both Trendon Watford and Day'Ron Sharpe, Clowney's most significant threats to earn playing time, are dealing with hamstring injuries and might not be available for the regular-season opener.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Expected to play center minutes
With Trendon Watford and Day'Ron Sharpe both sidelined by hamstring injuries, Clowney is expected to play backup minutes at center behind Nic Claxton (hamstring), Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Claxton's hamstring injury is reportedly less severe than Watford's and Sharpe's, but either way, Clowney has a clear path to consistent minutes to begin his second season in the NBA. As a rookie, Clowney made only 23 appearances, including four starts to end the regular season. Over the final six games of last season, Clowney averaged 13.5 points, 7.0 rebounds and 2.2 blocks in 30.7 minutes per game.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Drills five triples in win
Clowney converted five three-pointers on eight attempts and tallied 18 points (6-11 FG, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, four assists, two steals and two turnovers across 34 minutes in Thursday's Summer League win over Orlando.
Clowney was hot from beyond the arc, but there's no reason to overreact to one exhibition game in July. He attempted a total of 33 three-pointers last season and converted only 12 of them, and prior to today's outburst, he had gone 3-of-13 from distance in Las Vegas. Still, Clowney remains an exciting prospect, but as long as Nic Claxton is in Brooklyn, his upside will be muted.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Continues flashing talent
Clowney totaled 16 points (5-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 41 minutes during Sunday's 107-86 loss to the 76ers.
Clowney's versatility was on display across Brooklyn's last six contests, posting at least four blocks on two occasions, as well as grabbing 10 rebounds on two occasions, while Sunday marked his third game with 15-plus points and multiple made threes. The 6-foot-10 rookie lacks a defensive niche, but if his shot continues developing and he proves to be able to defend in space, Clowney has the makings of a future rotation player.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Hosts block party
Clowney ended with 10 points (5-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist, seven blocks and one steal across 39 minutes during Wednesday's 106-102 win over the Raptors.
Clowney recorded a season-high seven blocks during Wednesday's win over the Raptors. After registering just four swats over his first 18 appearances in 2023-24, the rookie forward has now tallied 11 over his last three outings. If Dorian Finney-Smith (knee) continues to miss time, Clowney could remain in the starting lineup for Brooklyn's final two games.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Starting Sunday
Clowney will start Sunday's game against the Kings.
Clowney will get the first start of his young career due to Dorian Finney-Smith (knee) and Nic Claxton (ankle) being out of the lineup. The rookie first-round pick has been impressive over his last two contests, averaging 19.5 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.5 blocks in 20.5 minutes per game.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Efficient off bench Saturday
Clowney chipped in 17 points (6-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and four blocks in 24 minutes during Saturday's 113-103 victory over Detroit.
Clowney played a prominent role off the bench for the Nets on Saturday, missing just one shot from the field and rounding a solid stat line due to his defensive contributions, particularly his four blocks. Clowney has been limited to garbage-time minutes most of the season, but his last two performances might be enough to earn more playing time ahead of the final week of the regular season.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Huge numbers in light minutes
Clowney finished with 22 points (7-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one block over 17 minutes during Wednesday's 115-111 victory over Indiana.
The 22 points and 10 rebounds were both career highs for Clowney, who became just the sixth player in NBA history to reach those statistical benchmarks in 17 minutes or fewer. The rookie first-round pick supplanted Day'Ron Sharpe as Nic Claxton's top backup Wednesday, and based on how he performed, Clowney should be a regular in the Brooklyn rotation for what's left of the season.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Returns to NBA
The Nets recalled Clowney from the G League's Long Island Nets, but he won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Magic due to a coach's decision.
Clowney has been an infrequent part of Brooklyn's rotation this season, so his absence Wednesday won't affect how interim coach Kevin Ollie distributes minutes in the frontcourt.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Recalled to NBA
Brooklyn recalled Clowney from the G League's Long Island Nets on Tuesday.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Gets four minutes Tuesday
Clowney recorded two points (1-1 FG) and one rebound across four minutes in Tuesday's 119-107 loss to thee Mavericks.
After a stint in the G League, Clowney rejoined the Nets ahead of Tuesday's contest while Brooklyn was in need of extra depth at forward with both Cameron Johnson (adductor) and Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle) sitting out. Clowney held only a limited role off the bench, so he looks as though he may need the Nets to be without at least one more key frontcourt player before he captures more meaningful minutes.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Rejoins parent club
Brooklyn recalled Clowney from the G League's Long Island Nets on Tuesday.
With the Nets losing Cam Johnson (adductor) and Lonnie Walker (hamstring) to injuries in Monday's loss to the Warriors and with Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle) already ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks, Clowney could be needed in Brooklyn's frontcourt rotation. Even if he claims a role on the second unit Tuesday, Clowney likely wouldn't be in store for extended minutes.
