Friday night at home against Atlanta, Brooklyn played its regular rotation picking up the 120-116 win behind a combined 77 points from Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant.

Most of those players are taking Saturday night off in Indiana. The list of Nets players out against the Pacers:

• Kevin Durant (injury management)
• Kyrie Irving (left adductor tightness)
Ben Simmons (injury management)
Seth Curry (injury management)
Joe Harris (injury management)
T.J. Warren (injury management)
Royce O'Neale (personal reasons)
Nic Claxton (right hamstring tightness)

“Injury management” is another way of saying load management or rest.

That means Jacque Vaughn has to construct lineups out of a combination of Cam Thomas, Patty Mills, Markieff Morris, Kessler Edwards, David Duke Jr., Day'Ron Sharpe, Edmond Sumner and Yuta Watanabe.
