| Player Notes |
| November 9, 2007 Richard Jefferson continued his scorching start to the season with a team-high 25 points in Thursdays victory over the Wizards. Jefferson added six rebounds, a block and a steal, and went a perfect 12-for-12 from the free-throw line. |
| March 11, 2007 Richard Jefferson had another ordinary showing Saturday, finishing with seven points and six rebounds in 35 minutes, the AP reports. "I felt all right tonight," said Jefferson, who was playing his second game back after ankle surgery. "A little bit of everything felt better." |
| March 10, 2007 Richard Jefferson checked into Friday's game with 7:52 left in the first half, his first game since Jan. 22 ankle surgery. He missed five of six shots and scored two points in 16 minutes. |
| March 9, 2007 Richard Jefferson went through a full practice Thursday, his first one since having knee surgery on Jan. 22, the Newark Star-Ledger reports. Jefferson is considered questionable for Friday's game with Houston. |
| March 6, 2007 Richard Jefferson is doing some jogging, shooting, slide-steps and running stairs, but he's not yet cleared to practice, according to the AP. Nets coach Lawrence Frank said he's hoping that will happen next week. |
| March 5, 2007 Richard Jefferson is traveling with the Nets, but he's not sure exactly when he'll get into a game, according to the New York Daily News. He's been running, shooting and playing one-on-one for several days, but he hasn't tested his surgically repaired ankle by dunking. |
| February 28, 2007 Richard Jefferson, recovering from ankle surgery, expects to travel with the Nets on their upcoming six-game, 10-day trip, according to the Bergen Record. It's possible he could play at the end of the trip. |
| February 24, 2007 Richard Jefferson shot the ball for 20 minutes yesterday, which was his longest shooting session since undergoing ankle surgery, according to the New York Daily News. He could return to action within a couple of weeks, barring a setback in his recovery. |
| February 10, 2007 Richard Jefferson advanced to the stage of swimming in his rehab on Saturday, according to the AP. Jefferson is recovering from ankle surgery. |
| February 7, 2007 Richard Jefferson, who is out with an ankle injury, hasn't started working out yet, so it's impossible to put a timetable on his return, according to the New York Post. Jefferson underwent right ankle surgery on Jan. 22, and original estimates put him out 6-to-8 weeks, although it's possible he could return before that. |
| February 1, 2007 Richard Jefferson still isn't ready to begin rehab on his ankle, according to the New York Daily News. Jefferson said that the time frame for his return could be up to two months. |

| January 22, 2007 Richard Jefferson probably will need 4-6 weeks to recover from today's ankle surgery, according to the New York Daily News. Look for Antoine Wright and Mikki Moore to benefit the most from a larger workload in Jefferson's absence. |
| January 21, 2007 Richard Jefferson will undergo arthroscopic surgery on his right ankle on Monday, according to the AP. There is no timetable for his return, but it's likely that he'll be out until March. |
| January 21, 2007 Like a good politician, Richard Jefferson is sticking to his talking points, saying he remains day-to-day due to his ankle injury. However, he was non-committal yesterday when asked if he would travel with the Nets for their five-game road trip or stay behind to undergo surgery on the ailing joint, according to the New York Daily News. Such a procedure likely would sideline him for about six weeks. |
| January 7, 2007 Richard Jefferson tweaked his troublesome right ankle on Saturday, according to the New York Daily News. He stayed in the game, but considering he recently said he expects to require surgery on the joint eventually, fantasy owners should be very nervous about his condition the rest of the season. |
