  • FA Point Guard #20
    Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
    According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, Jeff Dowtin has signed a two-way contract with the 76ers.
    Dowtin has averaged 21.4 points in 12 G League appearances this season, and he’ll look to parlay that success into a rotational role with Philly. Dowtin played under Nick Nurse in Toronto in 2022-23, so the transition back to the NBA should be smoother based on his history with the 76ers’ head coach. Dowtin isn’t worth an add in fantasy hoops, but managers should keep an eye on his playing time moving forward.
  • LAL Power Forward #3
    Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
    Anthony Davis (right hip soreness) and D’Angelo Russell (low back soreness) are probable for Friday’s game against the Raptors.
    Davis and Russell are on the injury report, but both are expected to be available Friday night. While the latter has been a solid fantasy option thus far, Davis has been one of the most productive players in the NBA.
  • UTA Power Forward #23
    Lauri Markkanen (lower back spasms) is out for Thursday’s game against the Spurs.
    After leaving Tuesday’s loss to the Kings prematurely due to back spasms, Markkanen will sit out Thursday’s game against the Spurs. His absence boosts the values of Kyle Filipowski and John Collins, with the former likely moving into the starting lineup. Filipowsk and Cody Williams, who has replaced the injured Taylor Hendricks, are worth streaming on a four-game night.
  • HOU Center #12
    Steven Adams (left calf strain, right knee injury recovery) is available for Thursday’s game against the Mavericks.
    Adams is good to go after the Rockets listed him as questionable on the initial injury report. He’ll serve as Alperen Sengun’s backup, which makes it difficult for the veteran center to achieve fantasy relevance. Jock Landale likely falls entirely out of the rotation.
  • MIL Power Forward #34
    Giannis Antetokounmpo (right patella tendinitis) is available for Thursday’s game against the Grizzlies.
    As has been the case on multiple occasions already this season, Antetokounmpo has been cleared after initially being listed as probable. He’ll take on his usual workload as the Bucks look to bounce back from Monday’s loss to the Celtics.
  • MEM Shooting Guard #46
    John Konchar (right quad contusion) is unlikely to play in Thursday’s game against the Bucks.
    Konchar was initially questionable for Thursday’s game, but it is unlikely he’ll play. With Desmond Bane and Marcus Smart already ruled out, Jake LaRavia, Jaylen Wells, and Scottie Pippen Jr. are all in the mix for additional playing time. Of those three, Pippen is the best streaming option.
  • DEN Power Forward #31
    Vlatko Cancar (right ankle sprain) is probable for Friday’s game against the Timberwolves.
    Cancar is on track to be available for Friday’s game. While his status does not impact fantasy basketball, the Nuggets’ depth would take a hit if he cannot play.
  • DEN Power Forward #32
    Aaron Gordon (right knee contusion) is probable for Friday’s game against the Timberwolves.
    The “probable” tag suggests Gordon will ultimately play on Friday. Given the issues the Nuggets have experienced with their bench through the season’s first week, they can ill afford to be without Gordon. Peyton Watson would be in line for more minutes if AG cannot play.
  • IND Small Forward #12
    Johnny Furphy (strep throat) is not on the injury report for Friday’s game against the Pelicans.
    Furphy is not in the rotation when healthy, so his return will not impact fantasy basketball.
  • NOP Center #21
    Yves Missi (right lower abdominal contusion) is questionable for Friday’s game against the Pacers.
    While Missi started the second half of Wednesday’s loss to the Warriors in place of the injured Daniel Theis, he only played 12 minutes due to an abdominal injury. If both cannot play against the Pacers, the Pelicans will have to go small, with Jeremiah Robinson-Earl figuring prominently in the rotation.
  • NOP Center #10
    Daniel Theis (right ankle sprain) is questionable for Friday’s game against the Pacers.
    Theis injured his ankle during Wednesday’s loss to the Warriors, with Yves Missi starting the second half. Missi is also questionable for Friday’s game, so a “doomsday” scenario could have Jeremiah Robinson-Earl in the lineup at the five. Zion Williamson can also fill the void, albeit for limited periods.
