Now that they're done with Reunion Week at Downtown's Barclays Center, the Brooklyn Nets hope to get back to some normalcy and, even more importantly, winning in their own building when they host the red-hot Cleveland Cavaliers Thursday night.
Cleveland reportedly has interest in Nets power forward Dorian Finney-Smith, whom Brooklyn acquired last February in the deal that sent Irving to Dallas. Finney-Smith is currently out with an ankle sprain. Also, Nets center Nic Claxton, who will be an unrestricted free agent after this season, is on plenty of teams' radar as the contenders try to separate themselves from the pretenders by giving up expiring contracts and draft picks for immediate help in pursuit of playoff success. Claxton ranks sixth in the league with 2.4 blocked shots per game. He is also 12th in the NBA in rebounding at 10.4 boards per contest.
