Andre Drummond is back in the game and just dunked. He appears to be fine. – 7:20 PM

Andre Drummond still on the Nets bench getting looked at it. Keeps holding the towel close to his face so I think he’s trying to clean up some blood. – 7:18 PM

Drummond looks like he’s trying to staunch some bleeding. First-round pick Day’Ron Sharpe wasn’t called up and is still with G League Long Island. #Nets – 7:18 PM

Nic Claxton has his sweats off and looks ready to come in for Drummond. Remember the #Nets don’t have LaMarcus Aldridge. – 7:15 PM

Looked like Drummond took a shot to the face — he stayed on a floor for a few moments — and then walked slowly back to the bench. He’s getting checked out by the training staff right now. Nets are already down Aldridge. – 7:15 PM

Greetings from Charlotte. 30th and final NBA arena for yours truly. Nets-Hornets tips shortly. BK could really use a win here given Charlotte is right behind them in the standings. Curious to see who gets LaMarcus Aldridge’s minutes. Updates to come. – 7:07 PM

I have taken better photos, but here is LaVarr Ball, who once appeared on The Etcs., greeting Kevin Durant. Ball also hugged Kessler Edwards, who played in the same conference as the Ball brothers in high school. pic.twitter.com/BNhV6uoTwu – 6:58 PM

Asked Jeff Green if he can compare Nikola Jokic to any of his former teammates at their peak: “I’m not going to compare him to Bron or KD. His talent is special. The way he plays is amazing and he’s doing it his way…You haven’t seen a big who can do all the things he can do.” pic.twitter.com/HRE9gxPWrw – 6:04 PM

Props to Ben Simmons for sitting on the bench in Philly and not hiding in the locker room. It’s gonna be a nasty atmosphere but, as Steve Nash said, it’s good to get it over with. – 3:26 PM
