Nets Injury Update: Game #18 Denver Nuggets (Pierce Out 2-4 weeks)

[box]

The Brooklyn Nets injury report this season has never failed to amaze us all year and today will be no different with some BIG news.

The latest injury is to another one of their offseason pieces in Paul Pierce.

The same Paul Pierce that missed 82 of his last 119 shots from the field and 32 of his last 42 from 3-point range in the past two weeks.

Pierce sat out Saturday nights win over Memphis with a bruised hand and most thought it was simply a bruise and maybe a good time to sit the struggling forward?

Wrong, it turns out that the Nets just announced that Pierce has a non-displaced fracture in his right hand.  (Body shot)

The hits keeps on coming to Nets fans everywhere.
