Kristaps Porziņģis

BOS Power Forward #8

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Kristaps Porzingis told ESPN’s Tim Bontemps after Monday’s win over the Mavericks that he will undergo surgery to address the dislocation of his left posterior tibialis.

Porzingis did play in Monday’s title clincher but was clearly at less than full strength. While he was not under any official restrictions, the Celtics big man only played 16 minutes off the bench. Following the victory, Porzingis revealed that the injury will require surgery, and the rehabilitation process will last for a “few months.” With KP facing a prolonged absence, Al Horford’s fantasy value will receive a slight boost in drafts ahead of the 2024-25 season.

Blake Wesley

POR Guard #1

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Blake Wesley (foot) is available for Friday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Wesley is set to play after initially being questionable for Friday’s game. With Deni Avdija (back) out, there should be rotation minutes available to Wesley. Scoot Henderson (hamstring) is available to make his season debut, but he’s unlikely to log heavy minutes.

Scoot Henderson

POR Guard #00

Scoot Henderson (hamstring) is available for Friday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Henderson is officially available to make his first appearance of the season for the Trail Blazers after suffering a torn hamstring during the offseason. Given the time that he’s missed, the guard will likely be under a minutes restriction. Also, those who have Henderson rostered should plan for him to sit out Saturday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Deni Avdija

POR Forward #8
Deni Avdija (back) will not play against the Grzzlies on Friday.

Without the services of their top scorer, the Trail Blazers will have to depend on the services of other players in order to end their current six-game losing streak, as Friday’s absence will mark the third straight for Avdija. The first-time All-Star selection is averaging career-highs in points, rebounds, and assists this season. Jerami Grant is a candidate to continue starting in Avdija’s spot.

Luka Dončić

LAL Forward-Guard #77
Luka Dončić (hamstring) is out for Saturday’s game against the Warriors.

Dončić suffered a strained left hamstring during Thursday’s win over the 76ers, exiting during the second quarter. Rui Hachimura started the third quarter, but Austin Reaves’ minutes restriction may have been the reason for that. Depending on how comfortable the Lakers are with Reaves playing starters’ minutes as he works his way back from a strained calf, it will influence who starts for Dončić.

Brandin Podziemski

GSW Guard #2
Brandin Podziemski (illness) is probable for Saturday’ sgame against the Lakers.

Podziemski was dealing with an illness during Thursday’s win over the Suns, playing just 13 minutes. He’s on track to be available Saturday night, which may result in fewer minutes for Pat Spencer. However, with Stephen Curry (knee) out, Spencer will still figure prominently in the rotation, especially after scoring a career-high 20 points on Thursday.

Dean Wade

CLE Forward-Center #32
Dean Wade (ankle) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Kings.

Wade is dealing with a sprained left ankle. With Evan Mobley (calf) still out, the Cavaliers could turn to Nae’Qwan Tomlin to fill the void if Wade can’t play against the Kings.

Kevin Porter

MIL Guard-Forward #7
Ryan Rollins, Kevin Porter Jr., AJ Green, Jericho Sims and Myles Turner will start Friday’s game against the Pacers.

After coming off the bench in his first game back from an oblique injury on Wednesday, Porter is in the starting lineup. He fills the void left by the recently traded Amir Coffey, who’s now in Phoenix. The other change is Sims, who is promoted into the starting lineup, pushing Kyle Kuzma to the bench. Sims doesn’t offer the highest fantasy ceiling, but Myles Turner’s limitations as a rebounder mean that he’ll have chances to provide added value in that category.

Andrew Nembhard

IND Guard-Forward #2
Andrew Nembhard, Aaron Nesmith, Johnny Furphy, Jay Huff and Pascal Siakam will start against the Bucks on Friday.

Nembhard is back in the lineup, and so is Aaron Nesmith, for Indiana’s first game following the trade deadline. This opening unit will almost certainly change once Ivica Zubac, whom the Pacers just traded for, is available to play. But they’ll have to do without his services on Friday as they try to end a two-game losing streak.

Isaiah Livers

PHX Forward #18

Isaiah Livers (shoulder) is out for Saturday’s game against the 76ers.

Livers exited Thursday’s loss to the Warriors during the first half and did not return due to a sprained left shoulder. His absence does not affect fantasy basketball.

Jalen Green

PHX Guard #4

Jalen Green (hamstring, hip) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the 76ers.

Green has missed Phoenix’s last four games since taking a hard fall during a January 30 win over the Cavaliers, and he was already having his playing time managed due to a strained hamstring. If he’s able to play on Saturday, Green will likely have his playing time restricted, but it would still help the Suns account for Grayson Allen’s absence.
