Nets’ Douglas-Roberts Has H1N1 Virus

by Tom Ziller Filed under: Nets , NBA Injuries H1N1 has hit the NBA. The Nets announced Saturday afternoon that starting two-guard Chris Douglas-Roberts has come down with the dangerous virus, putting the player out of action and the rest of the team at risk. Though the Nets have stunk, Douglas-Roberts has had a solid start to the season, a follow-up on a disappointing rookie campaign in which the University of Memphis product got little opportunity for New Jersey. CD-R missed Friday’s game at Philadelphia with flu-like symptoms … a rather prophetic diagnosis. The Nets are limited to eight or nine players due to injury ( Courtney Lee tweaked his groin Friday), so the team can’t exactly afford to lose any others to illness. There have been no reports of the virus spreading in Nets locker room, and Nets PR says every precaution has been taken. The Nets play Saturday night against Boston.
