Joe Harris missed the Nets’ season opener against the Pelicans due to an ankle injury. According to the 31-year-old small forward, the injury is not serious and decision for him sit out the game was a result of cautiousness considering.
“A little bit of swelling; soreness, that’s it…It was just conservative,” Harris said, per Brian Lewis of New York Post. “I mean, I’m coming off reconstructive (ankle) surgery. I had a bunch of spurs taken off my navicular. So its just our performance (team) has just been a little conservative.”
Brooklyn ended up losing against New Orleans 130-108. Their next opponent is Toronto. Harris is set to play in this game.
