Steve Nash said the team is going to re-assess TJ Warren in November. The Nets are taking the cautious approach with the veteran scorer who is coming off two consecutive seasons lost to stress fractures in his left foot. – 2:14 PM

A couple injury updates from Nash: Seth Curry is expected to be ready for the regular season. Nash is hopeful he might play in last preseason game. T.J. Warren (foot) will not be ready to start the season. Nash says this was not unexpected and Warren continues to make progress. – 1:15 PM
