Despite returning to practice yesterday, Nets center Brook Lopez will not play tonight when the Knicks visits.  Lopez has missed the last 5 games with a sprained right foot.  Before the injury, Lopez had averaged 18.5 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.5 blocks.  Yesterday after practice, Lopez addressed the media:

“I’m feeling good,” Lopez said “It was great to go through an entire practice. I wasn’t sure I would be able to, not because of whatever happened with my foot but because of my conditioning.....It’s just been more of a matter of getting the explosion back in the foot,” Lopez said. “That’s just a matter of confidence, as well.”
