The Nets may face another setback as they prepare to take on the Wizards, with star player Cam Thomas potentially sidelined due to back spasms. After being a late scratch in Monday's victory over the Raptors, Thomas was listed as questionable for Wednesday's game. Interim head coach Kevin Ollie cited lower-back tightness and described Thomas experiencing "back spasms" during warm-ups. This absence marks Thomas's 16th missed game of the season, with the Nets holding a 9-7 record without him. With only 10 regular-season games remaining and a tight race to avoid elimination from play-in contention, the Nets will eagerly await updates on Thomas's condition to maintain their competitive edge.
In addition to Thomas's uncertainty, Monday's game saw Mikal Bridges struggling with just 13 points on 5 of 15 shooting. Despite this, Bridges showed determination, urging coach Ollie to let him finish the game. As the Nets navigate the final stretch of the season, they face the challenge of maintaining momentum and securing crucial victories, especially in Thomas's potential absence, as they aim to secure their spot in the playoffs.
