Tre Mann heading to Washington in Watson deal

Poole will miss a third consecutive game with left ankle tendinopathy. Bryce McGowens has played rotation minutes off the bench recently and should continue to do so, but he’s unlikely to offer reliable fantasy value.

The probable tag suggests that Murphy will ultimately be available for Monday’s game. If he can’t play, Herb Jones may remain in the starting lineup, since Dejounte Murray (personal) is available.

Murray will be available on Monday after missing the last two games for personal reasons. His return likely means that Herb Jones will head to the bench, and it may also lower Jeremiah Fears’ fantasy ceiling.

Sunday’s game is the first of two in as many days for the Celtics, who visit the Rockets on Monday. As a result, Mitchell Robinson (rest) will sit, and Queta will replace him in the starting lineup. Luka Garza should pick up additional minutes off the bench.

Alvarado has missed the Knicks’ last four games with a sprained ankle, resulting in Tyler Kolek entering the rotation. While he did play well in the first three games that Alvarado missed, Kolek struggled in Friday’s loss to the 76ers.

Hardaway has come off the bench in each of Miami’s first six games, averaging 6.2 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.0 three-pointers in 18.2 minutes. His production hasn’t been enough to merit a roster spot in fantasy leagues.

Acquired from the Nets in a multi-team trade this summer, Claxton strained his hamstring in early October and has been out since. However, his Bulls debut may not be far away, as he practiced on Sunday without limitations. Jalen Smith has been the starting center in Claxton’s absence, and managers may want to hold onto him until Claxton can play with no restrictions on his playing time.

With Saturday’s game being Portland’s first since losing Ja Morant to a Grade 2 hamstring strain, head coach Micah Nori had to alter his rotation. One change was more playing time for Krejčí, who logged 24 minutes in the 112-90 victory. His production wasn’t enough to make him a player worth adding going into Week 3, but Krejčí should get more opportunities in the coming weeks.

Boston plays on Sunday and Monday, so Robinson sitting is not a major surprise. Neemias Queta is the most likely replacement in the starting lineup, and Luka Garza’s playing time is likely to increase.

After totaling 10 points in his first two starts of the season, Williams scored 11 on Saturday. He was most valuable against the Rockets in three-pointers and rebounds, but this performance doesn’t make “Kenny Hustle” a must-add heading into Oklahoma City’s four-game Week 3. Also, with the Thunder playing two games against Cleveland to start the week, it’s fair to wonder whether head coach Mark Daigneault would consider a bigger lineup to match up with Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. If so, Williams or Jared McCain (10/4/2/1) could be headed to the bench.
