Brook Lopez to miss another game with ankle injury

The Brooklyn Nets have confirmed that Brook Lopez will miss another game with an ankle sprain.

The center has been ruled out of the team's meeting with the Charlotte Bobcats later today, which will be his third consecutive absence.

Lopez sustained the injury during the team's game against the Phoenix Suns at the weekend.

The 25-year-old has averaged 20.5 points per game so far this season.
