Nets' Trevor Booker: Probable for Thursday vs. Pelicans
Booker (hip) has been upgraded to probable for Thursday's matchup with the Pelicans, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Analysis:
Booker was held out of Tuesday's game against the Hawks with a bruised left hip, but expressed optimism following the game that he would be ready to go by Thursday, so his listing as probable doesn't come as a huge surprise. Barring any late setbacks, look for him to take on his usual role in the starting lineup at power forward, which should send Rondae Hollis-Jefferson back to the bench. Booker has had a strong start to January over four games, posting averages of 12.5 points, 9.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists across 26.0 minutes.
