Teletovic (ankle) scored 20 points (8-11 FG, 4-6 3P) with six rebounds and two blocks in 23 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 121-105 loss to the Celtics.

He didn't seem hampered by his sprained ankle, and Teletovic should be a big part of the Nets' second unit this season.

Teletovic has a sprained left ankle, but was able to practice fully Monday, the New York Post's Tim Bontemps reports.

He wore an ankle brace during practice Monday, but it doesn't sound like the injury will sideline him for the season opener.

Teletovic scored 22 points (7-12 FG, 6-9 3P, 2-2 FT) with four rebounds in 30 minutes during Wednesday's preseason OT win over the Kings.

He got the start on Wednesday and thrived in a stretch four role, but once the regular season tips off Teletovic will likely have to come off the bench behind Kevin Garnett.

Teletovic ran with the starters during Monday's practice, the Record's Andy Vasquez reports.

The Nets have used a variety of rotations in the early part of training camp, as Andrei Kirilenko has also ran with the ones and Kevin Garnett figures to open the season as the starting power forward. However, it's clear that Teletovic is high enough in the pecking order to be one of the first guys off the bench, assuming he doesn't start.

With Paul Pierce in Washington and Kevin Garnett entering his 20th season (and averaging just six points per game last season), it would appear that Mirza Teletovic is primed for a breakout season.

He came on over his final eight games of the season last year, averaging 11.9 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.8 3-pointers, and he could offer more of the same as a starter this year. The Nets could still make an acquisition or two that would hurt Teletovic, but as of now, he looks like a good bet to be a very nice fantasy sleeper.

Mirza Teletovic hit 4-of-7 shots, all 3-pointers, for 12 points and six rebounds in 19 minutes in Saturday's Game 3 win.

Teletovic had 20 points and six treys on Thursday, and he's now hit 13 3-pointers in three playoff games against the Heat.

Mirza Teletovic scored a team-high 20 points vs. the Heat on Thursday with two boards, two turnovers and six 3-pointers.

His six triples set a franchise record in a playoff game and he was the only real highlight for the Nets tonight. Teletovic has been hot here and there and he's mostly done his damage in the fourth quarter, but they were an absolute joke down the stretch with just 15 points in that frame. Mirza will likely cool off on Saturday in Game 3.

Mirza Teletovic has missed a couple games after his wife gave birth to twins, but we're guessing he's ready to go for the playoffs.

He might have missed at least one of those games in order to rest, but his family should be situated by the time they face the Raptors in Round 1.

Mirza Teletovic will not play on Wednesday to be with his wife and newborn twins.

While Teletovic and his wife celebrate, the Nets gear up for a game vs. the Cavaliers that could decide their playoff seeding. If the Nets lose and the Wizards win on Wednesday, Washington will take over the No. 5 seed by virtue of a tie-breaker.

Mirza Teltovic will miss Tuesday's game against the Knicks for personal reasons.

Alan Anderson and Shaun Livingston are also out, while Paul Pierce, Joe Johnson and Deron Williams are all listed as game-time decisions. Carmelo Anthony is not expected to play for the Knicks, and this game is setting up to be a bit of a no-name circus. Marcus Thornton, Marquis Teague and Mason Plumlee could all have big games tonight.

Nets PF Mirza Teletovic made 7-of-12 field goals with four 3-pointers on Sunday, while grabbing six rebounds and blocking one shot in 29 minutes off the bench.

Teletovic is shooting nearly 39 percent from downtown on the season and he's picked up the pace in April (42.9 percent), which gives Brooklyn some much-welcomed firepower off the bench. His perimeter shooting makes him an intriguing fantasy player, and we'll keep an eye on him this summer with the Nets' roster likely to see plenty of changes.

Mirza Teletovic started for Paul Pierce (hip) and hit 5-of-17 shots (all 3-pointers) for 17 points and nine rebounds in Wednesday's loss to the Magic.

Teletovic didn't shoot it particularly well but if you saw our blurb announcing him as a starter and put him in your lineup, he gave you exactly what you were probably looking for - points, threes and boards. If he continues to start he's probably worth having in your lineup.

Mirza Teletovic will start vs. the Magic on Wednesday.

He's been all over the place as a bench guy, but has solid averages in his three previous starts of 13.8 points, 3.2 boards, 0.5 blocks, 0.3 steals and 2.7 triples. Plus, Teletovic did hit six triples in a game last week off the bench. He's not exactly a household name, but he could be a sneaky play for owners seeking help in points and treys.

Mirza Teletovic hit 4-of-8 shots and two 3-pointers for 11 points and two rebounds in Tuesday's tough win over the Heat.

He's been very up and down over his last five games, but on nights when Andray Blatche and/or Kevin Garnett are sitting (like tonight), he's a decent bet for some production.

Mirza Teletovic played 25 minutes off the bench on Tuesday, scoring 10 points with two 3-pointers, seven rebounds and one steal.

Rebounding has been a weak spot for the Nets over the past five games, as their 39.5 boards per game ranks 27th in the NBA ahead of only the Heat, Jazz and Lakers. Kevin Garnett's potential return from back spasms later this week should help the Nets, but in the meantime they'll take whatever guys like Teletovic, Mason Plumlee and Andray Blatche can give them.

The Nets beat the Cavs on Friday for their 12th consecutive home victory, aided by Mirza Teletovic's nine points, three 3-pointers, 10 rebounds and one steal in 28 bench minutes.

Teletovic shot just 3-of-11 from the field, but the threat of his perimeter game helped to open the court for Alan Anderson (13 points), Andray Blatche (10 points) and Marcus Thornton (10 points). Even with four games on the schedule next week it's inadvisable to own Teletovic outside of deep leagues.

Mirza Teletovic hit 6-of-12 shots, and all 12 attempts were from downtown, as he finished with 22 points and three rebounds in Wednesday's overtime loss to the Bobcats.

He played 28 minutes, his most since Feb. 9, and this was his first game in double digits March 12. In other words, we'd like to see him do something in the next couple games before getting too excited about tonight's 3-point explosion.

Mirza Teletovic played just three minutes and only had one foul while not taking any shot attempts during Thursday's 92-76 loss to the Bulls.

He could not guard Taj Gibson in the post in the first half and it costed him some playing time. Teletovic is ranks fourth in the NBA for 3-pointers in the fourth quarter this season, but he's gone cold over his previous nine with a 3-point percentage of just 25.5 percent in that span. He's a boom-or-bust player in deeper leagues.

Mirza Teletovic had 13 points, eight rebounds, a block and three 3-pointers in Wednesday's win.

He also scored 13 with 11 rebounds and one 3-pointer on Sunday, which came on the heels for Friday's game when he failed to even score a point. He's streaky and worth holding in deeper leagues, but he's a tough start in weekly leagues. But if you rolled the dice on him this week, he could pay big dividends if he can do this again on Thursday against the Bulls.

Mirza Teletovic shot blanks in Friday's blowout loss to the Pistons, missing all five of his shots to finish with zero points, two rebounds, one steal and one block in 14 minutes.

The whole team struggled so it's hard to ride Teletovic too hard here but he hasn't been able to capitalize on some huge outings throughout the last month. When you factor those outings in he has produced some value for 14-16 team leagues, but with no consistency he's probably hurt more than he has helped during that time.
