D'Angelo Russell Injury: Ruled out Saturday

Russell (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Wizards.

After logging 19 minutes and finishing with five points (2-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 19 minutes in Friday's 132-100 loss to the Clippers, Russell will get Saturday off to manage a right ankle injury while the Nets wrap up their back-to-back set. With Russell sidelined, Keon Johnson and Reece Beekman are likely to cover most of the available minutes at point guard.
