Brook Lopez underwent an MRI on his foot as expected.  The results came back negative which was a relief for the Brooklyn Nets, but he will still be listed as day to day.  The injury occurred last Wednesday, and Lopez has missed the last two games.

According to Mike Mazzeo of ESPN New York, Lopez is expected to miss Tuesday night's game.  The sprained foot is not expected to keep Lopez sidelined for now, but the Nets are being as cautious as possible.


Lopez is having another good year for Brooklyn.  He is averaging 18.5 points per game and 6.8 rebounds per game.  He's having a fantastic year, but with the Nets building a better team around him, he doesn't have to be the go-to guy.  The new make-up of the team has given Lopez a lot more freedom.

Brooklyn has been maintaining their success even without Lopez.  They are 11-5 on the season.  They have split the two games Lopez missed.
