Nets coach Jacque Vaughn said after last night’s loss to the Knicks that Ben Simmons (left knee soreness) will not be available for Friday’s game against the Celtics.
Simmons has missed Brooklyn’s last four games, and Friday will make five.
Brooklyn does play four games in Week 20, but that includes a back-to-back, which limits Simmons’ upside if he’s available.
