Rotoworld

Josh Green

CHA Small Forward #10

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Josh Green (shoulder) and Josh Okogie (hamstring) have been ruled out for Wednesday’s game against the Raptors.

The Hornets are short on physical wings. Okogie has been starting while Green has missed Charlotte’s last three games, but now both of them are out. DaQuan Jeffries could be poised for a return to the starting lineup against Toronto.

Kam Jones

IND Guard #7

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Kam Jones, Ben Sheppard, Johnny Furphy, Jarace Walker and Jay Huff will start Tuesday’s game against the Jazz.

Furphy and Huff are the two holdovers from the lineup that started Monday’s loss to the Rockets. Jones, Sheppard and Walker move into the lineup, as the Pacers are without Andrew Nembhard, Aaron Nesmith and Pascal Siakam. Given the team’s lack of depth, all three will have ample opportunities to contribute, with Walker being the superior streamer.

Austin Reaves

LAL Guard #15
Austin Reaves (calf) is available for Tuesday’s game against the Nets.

Reaves is back after sitting out the last 18 Lakers games with a calf injury. Marcus Smart will return to the bench with Reaves back in the starting lineup. The 27-year-old point guard should be on a minutes limit, so Smart will still have a meaningful role off the bench.

Tre Jones

CHI Guard #30

Tre Jones (hamstring) is questionable for Tuesday’s game against the Bucks.

Jones has been out since the middle of January with a left hamstring strain. That the 26-year-old point guard was upgraded to questionable Tuesday is a great for his pending return, though it’s still up in the air if he’ll be available against the Bucks. Jones would likely play lite minutes off the bench if he’s active.

Jalen Smith

CHI Forward-Center #25

Jalen Smith (calf) is available for Tuesday’s game against the Bucks.

Initially questionable, Smith is good to go after a two-game absence. And with the Bulls trading Nikola Vučević to the Celtics earlier Tuesday, there is undoubtedly a need for additional options in the frontcourt. Given the circumstances, Smith is worth slotting into fantasy lineups.

Kevin Porter

MIL Guard-Forward #7
Bucks head coach Doc Rivers said on Tuesday that Kevin Porter Jr. (oblique) is closing in on a return to action.

Tuesday’s game against the Bulls will be the sixth Porter has missed due to a strained oblique. However, a return to action isn’t far away, with Rivers saying that KPJ could be back either Wednesday or Friday. His return would provide much-needed help on the perimeter for the Bucks, who are also without Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf). Cole Anthony has entered the rotation, but his production has not been good enough to merit being streamed in fantasy leagues.

D'Angelo Russell

DAL Guard #5

D’Angelo Russell (illness) is out for Tuesday’s game against the Celtics.

While Russell’s availability doesn’t significantly impact fantasy basketball, the Mavericks are down another guard with Brandon Williams also ruled out with a leg injury. Ryan Nembhard could see meaningful usage in the backcourt while Cooper Flagg handles most of the point guard duties.

Brandon Williams

DAL Guard #10
Brandon Williams (leg) is out for Tuesday’s game against the Celtics.

Downgraded from questionable to doubtful earlier Tuesday, Williams is now officially out. The Mavericks will continue to lean on Cooper Flagg to do more as a playmaker, with Ryan Nembhard providing depth off the bench.

Dorian Finney-Smith

HOU Forward #2
Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle) is out for Wednesday’s game against the Celtics.

Wednesday’s game is the first of two in as many nights for the Rockets, who face the Hornets on Thursday. As a result, Finney-Smith will not play due to left ankle injury management. His absence may result in increased playing time for Jae’Sean Tate, but there’s no streaming value to be had there.

Kevin Durant

HOU Forward #7

Kevin Durant (ankle) is probable for Wednesday’s game against the Celtics.

Durant missed just his third game of the entire season Monday against the Pacers. The 37-year-old small forward tweaked something in his ankle, but the injury doesn’t appear to be serious. Durant is listed as probable for Wednesday’s game against the Celtics. Reed Sheppard will return to the bench with Durant expected to return.

Kristaps Porziņģis

ATL Forward-Center #8
Kristaps Porziņǵis (illness) is now out for Tuesday’s game against the Heat.

Initially cleared to play after missing Atlanta’s last 12 games with an Achilles injury, Porziņǵis has been scratched due to an illness. With Onyeka Okongwu (mouth) still out, the Hawks will be left to once again rely on Christian Koloko and Mouhamed Gueye to fill the void at the center position.
