2023 Fantasy Outlook
Sharpe failed to make any significant progress during his sophomore season, playing fewer minutes per game than he did in his rookie campaign. In just 11.5 minutes per game, he compiled averages of 4.7 points, 4.2 rebounds and 0.7 blocks. Although he has shown glimpses of having a somewhat fantasy-friendly game, the Nets simply haven't needed him to play meaningful minutes. Nic Claxton is locked in as the long-term starter in Brooklyn, coming off his best season as a professional. The Nets also selected Noah Clowney in the 2023 draft, only complicating matters for Sharpe. If he were to ever land a significant role, Sharpe would be an intriguing addition given his per-minute upside. However, that appears unlikely given what we have seen over the past two years, making him an afterthought in standard formats. Read Past Outlooks

April 15, 2023
Sharpe will return to a reserve role in Saturday's Game 1 tilt against the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
The Nets rested most of their usual starters in their regular-season finale, which resulted in Sharpe getting a rare spot start. He is now set to return to his usual role of providing depth in the team's frontcourt.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Can't eclipse bigger role
CBrooklyn Nets
December 23, 2022
Sharpe has appeared in just 17 games for Brooklyn this season, averaging 8.9 minutes per game.
ANALYSIS
Despite Brooklyn's gaping lack of rim protection besides Nic Claxton, Sharpe has not been part of the solution. The 21-year-old is committing too many fouls and struggling to finish at the rim -- huge shortcomings for a paint-dwelling big. His 7.7 percent foul rate and 57.7 percent shooting at the rim are both down from his rookie season, while ranking in the bottom-10 percentile league-wide.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
The Nets are paper thin at the center position, meaning Sharpe could sniff 12-team value this season or at least be on the radar for those in deeper formats. Nic Claxton figures to start, and while he should log up to 30 minutes per night, injuries and foul issues have been a constant source of frustration in the past. If he does miss any length of time this season, Sharpe could step into a more significant role, albeit on a short-term basis.
Sharpe was selected by the Nets with the 29th overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft. During his freshman season at North Carolina, the 19-year-old averaged 9.5 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 0.9 blocks across 19.2 minutes per game. He's a traditional big man -- an excellent rebounder and good screen-and-roll option. He showed off his impressive offensive rebounding in Summer League, grabbing 3.8 offensive boards per game in just 20.2 minutes. This season, he might struggle to find a consistent role. The Nets shored up their center rotation and have LaMarcus Aldridge, Paul Millsap, Blake Griffin and Nicolas Claxton. It will be tough for Sharpe to play well enough to see minutes over any of those options.
