DALLAS — The Nets’ backcourt problems could hit DEFCON Level 2 on Thursday with Garrett Temple questionable with a sore knee.
“[Temple] did not practice. He’s got a sore knee, so monitoring that. He’s questionable for [Thursday],” coach Kenny Atkinson said.
“It’s all right,” Temple said of his knee. But that remains to be seen. With the Nets and their injury history, one can never be too sure.
Caris LeVert hasn’t played since Nov. 10 while Kyrie Irving hasn’t played, practiced or spoken to the press since Nov. 14. David Nwaba had season-ending Achilles surgery, and the Nets are desperately short on guards.
