Nets' Lopez out two games

Brooklyn Nets centre Brook Lopez is out for the next two games with a mild foot sprain, according to the team's PR department.

An injury to the same foot caused Lopez to miss all but five games last season with a stress fracture that required immediate surgery. He also sustained an ankle injury on the same foot.

Through 14 games this season, the 24 year old Lopez has averaged 18.5 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game.
