Supplies 23 points in double-double
Russell (hamstring) supplied a team-high 23 points (6-17 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 7-7 FT), two rebounds, 10 assists, three blocks and one steal in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 99-95 loss to the Knicks.
Analysis
Russell registered his third double-double of the season while playing through a hamstring injury Tuesday, and it's also worth noting he logged his most minutes (31) since joining his new team. The veteran guard has been far more productive thus far with Brooklyn as opposed to the Lakers, particularly in the assists column, as he's averaging 14.6 points, 8.3 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 2.1 three-pointers in 24.4 minutes over his last seven games. Although Russell's future with the rebuilding Nets remains uncertain, he should remain the club's primary ball handler for as long as Cam Thomas (hamstring) sits on the shelf.

Good to go Tuesday
Russell (hamstring) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Knicks, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Analysis
Russell has been upgraded from probable to available Tuesday despite dealing with left hamstring tightness. The 28-year-old guard should make his second straight appearance with Ben Simmons (illness) out.

Upgraded to probable
Russell (hamstring) has been upgraded to probable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.
Analysis
This is good news for a Brooklyn team that just ruled Ben Simmons (illness) out for Tuesday. Russell is, therefore, poised for a lot of usage against the Knicks. In six appearances with the Nets, Russell holds averages of 13.2 points, 8.0 assists, 3.2 rebounds, 1.7 steals and 1.8 three-pointers.

Iffy for Tuesday
Russell is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks due to left hamstring tightness injury management, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
Analysis
Russell started in the Nets' most recent game Sunday, finishing with nine points, seven assists, four rebounds and one steal over 24 minutes in a 127-101 loss to the Thunder. If Russell is able to play in the front end of a back-to-back set Tuesday, he could move back to the bench in the event Ben Simmons (illness) -- who is listed as probable -- is also available to play. Even if Russell gets the green light to play Tuesday, he could still be at risk of being rested in Wednesday's game against the Suns.

Seven dimes in Sunday's start
Russell accumulated nine points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 127-101 loss to the Thunder.
Analysis
With Ben Simmons (illness) unavailable, Russell shifted back into the starting five and led the Nets in assists, although he made little scoring impact of his own. The veteran guard is averaging 13.2 points, 8.0 assists, 3.2 boards, 1.8 threes and 1.7 minutes over 23.2 minutes in his six appearances (three starts) for Brooklyn since being shipped east in a late December trade with the Lakers.

Moving to starting role
Russell is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Thunder, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Analysis
Ben Simmons was a late scratch Sunday due to an illness, so Russell will move to the starting lineup as his replacement. Russell is averaging 12.0 points, 5.8 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 1.1 steals per game in a starting role this season. He's started in two of his five appearances with Brooklyn so far.

Available vs. Los Angeles
Russell (shin/hamstring) has been cleared to play in Friday's game against the Lakers, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Analysis
After missing five of the last six games for the Nets, Russell has been cleared to return to play Friday. The 28-year-old guard might be ready for a revenge game, facing his former team for the first time since being traded last month. In his last game for Brooklyn against Portland, the veteran guard finished with 13 points, three rebounds, nine assists and four steals in 21 minutes off the bench.

Won't go Wednesday
Russell (shin/hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
Analysis
Russell was a late add to the injury report Wednesday due to a bruised right shin and a tight left hamstring. With the Nets dealing with a handful of injuries, Keon Johnson, Tyrese Martin, Reece Beekman and Jalen Wilson should see plenty of action. Russell's next chance to play will come Friday against the Lakers.

Now questionable for Wednesday
Russell is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers due to a right shin contusion and left hamstring tightness, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.
Analysis
Russell missed four straight games with a bruised right shin before playing in Tuesday's win over Portland. However, he was a late addition to Wednesday's injury report due to the shin injury and left hamstring tightness, a new issue. Considering Russell has been banged-up lately, it wouldn't be surprising to see him sit out the closing leg of Brooklyn's back-to-back. If he winds up missing Wednesday's game, look to Keon Johnson, Reece Beekman and Tyrese Martin to pick up the slack.
