Rotoworld

Marreese Speights

NBA Center #5

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Marreese Speights will start for injured Marc Gasol (ankle) on Tuesday.

Hamed Haddadi should also get plenty of run off the bench, but both players will only have short-term value, as Gasol is expected back for their next game, Friday in Houston.

Taj Gibson

MEM Forward #67

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Taj Gibson (foot) will not play on Friday against the Raptors.

Gibson has not played in the Grizzlies’ past three games, and Friday’s absence will mark a fourth straight. The veteran forward is averaging 4.0 points in his seven appearances this season. His absence will have little fantasy impact.

Walter Clayton

MEM Guard #4
Walter Clayton Jr. (hip) is out for Friday’s game against the Raptors.

Already without Ty Jerome and Cam Spencer, the Grizzlies won’t have Clayton for Friday’s game, either. Jahmai Mashack and Javon Small will have important roles due to the Grizzlies’ limited depth, and Dariq Whitehead could make his debut after being inked to a 10-day contract.

Karl-Anthony Towns

NYK Center-Forward #32
Karl-Anthony Towns (elbow) is out for Friday’s game against the Bulls.

Towns is out after recording his first triple-double of the season in Wednesday’s win over the Grizzlies. Mitchell Robinson, who did not play on Wednesday, will move into the starting lineup and is worth streaming in some 12-team leagues. Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, Josh Hart and OG Anunoby complete the starting five.

Terance Mann

BKN Guard-Forward #14

Terance Mann, Noah Clowney, Nic Claxton, Drake Powell and Nolan Traore will start on Friday against the Hawks.

Mann is back from injury and will rejoin the Nets’ starting unit. Brooklyn has lost 11 of its last 12 games, and with six games remaining in the season, the Nets have one of the league’s worst records. Clowney and Claxton could be solid fantasy contributors on Friday.

Caleb Martin

DAL Forward #16
Caleb Martin (foot) is out for Friday’s game against the Magic.

Martin will miss a ninth straight game on Friday as he continues to deal with plantar fasciitis. His absence does not affect fantasy basketball, but it does free up additional minutes for Khris Middleton.

Marvin Bagley

DAL Forward #35
Marvin Bagley III (shoulder) is out for Friday’s game against the Magic.

Bagley will miss a third consecutive game on Friday. His absence leaves the backup center minutes to Dwight Powell, who offers limited fantasy value at best.

P.J. Washington

DAL Forward #25
P.J. Washington (illness) will miss Friday’s game against the Magic.

Washington was downgraded from doubtful to out ahead of Friday’s tipoff, which will mark his third straight missed game. While sidelined, Naji Marshall should remain a strong fantasy option, while Khris Middleton could see more minutes, as well.

Ryan Kalkbrenner

CHA Center #11

LaMelo Ball, Brandon Miller, Kon Knueppel, Miles Bridges and Ryan Kalkbrenner will start Friday’s game against the Pacers.

The Hornets are down a starter for Friday’s game, as Moussa Diabaté is out with a sore left ankle. Kalkbrenner moves into the starting five and should play plenty, as Grant Williams is also out for the Hornets.

Jamison Battle

TOR Forward #77

Jamison Battle (illness) is available for Friday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Battle is available after missing Toronto’s last three games due to illness. While he may slide into the back end of the Raptors’ rotation, this does not make Battle a fantasy-relevant player.

Anthony Edwards

MIN Guard #5

Anthony Edwards, Donte DiVincenzo, Rudy Gobert, Julius Randle and Ayo Dosunmu will start against the 76ers on Friday.

Edwards (knee, illness) is back and will start for the Wolves following a one-game absence. The superstar guard will step in as Minnesota’s clear-cut best fantasy option, though Dosunmu, Gobert, and Randle all provide different levels of value.
