Nets Injury Update: Deron Williams (ankle) game-time decision vs Hawks
[box]
Some not-so-good news came out of the Brooklyn Nets shoot-around today when the guy who has been playing the best basketball, Deron Williams, did not show up because he was sent to the doctor to check out his sore left ankle. SIGH
I don’t know what to make of this other then to think the worst and know in my heart he wont play tonight and some more bad news will likely come out about his ankle as well.
That is just the beaten down Nets fan in me talking so we will have to wait and see what becomes of this situation later today.
Game update: Deron Williams (left ankle) is a game time decision tonight vs Atlanta. #Nets
