ATLANTA (AP)—New Jersey Nets coach Avery Johnson says backup guard Quinton
Ross(notes) will likely miss the remainder of the season because of a back injury.
Johnson said before Saturday night’s game against the Atlanta Hawks that
Ross has “another disc situation” in his back. Ross missed 12 games earlier
this season with a back injury. He missed his fifth straight game against the
Hawks.
Ross, in his seventh season, is averaging 1.6 points.
Nets star Deron Williams(notes) was with the team but was inactive for the fifth
straight game with a strained tendon in his right wrist. Johnson said he expects
an update on Williams next week.
