The Nets lost to the Kings 110-96 despite a game that was still relatively close over the course of the first three quarters before Brooklyn let go of the rope in the fourth quart

Part of the reason that Brooklyn found it tough to hang in there is due to their defense struggling to contain Tyler Herro, who piled up 25 points and eight assists in the contest. With that being said, here are the Nets player grades following Saturday's loss to the Heat:

Russell has appeared in six of the Nets' 11 games after joining the team in a Dec. 29 trade from the Los Angeles Lakers. The 28-year-old has averaged 13.2 points, 3.2 rebounds, 8.0 assists and 1.7 steals per game on 41.7 percent shooting from the field and 36.7 percent from three.
