Claxton will not play in Wednesday's game versus the Bucks due to left ankle injury maintenance, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
The Nets' schedule has been congested recently, as this is their second consecutive back-to-back set. Claxton played 26 minutes Tuesday night and finished with 11 points, 11 rebounds, two assists and three blocks. He will get the night off Wednesday but should be back in the lineup Friday against Washington. Day'Ron Sharpe had one of the best games of his season Tuesday, and he's likely to see increased playing time against the Bucks.
