Jock Landale

HOU Center #2

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Jock Landale (knee) is out for Game 6 on Friday against the Warriors.

Landale has only seen action in one game this series, playing five minutes in the Rockets’ blowout victory in Game 5. The knee contusion sidelined him for the first three games, and Landale did not play in Game 4 despite being cleared. His return to the sidelines will not impact the Rockets’ rotation as they look to extend the series to a decisive Game 7.

Ousmane Dieng

OKC Forward #13

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Ousmane Dieng (calf) is out for Sunday’s game against the 76ers.

Dieng last appeared in a game on December 17. His continued absence does not affect fantasy basketball, as he is not guaranteed rotation minutes when healthy.

Jaylin Williams

OKC Power Forward #10
Jaylin Williams (heel) is out for Sunday’s game against the 76ers.

Williams has not appeared in a game since December 13, as he has been out with left heel bursitis. His absence does not significantly affect fantasy basketball, but it does make Branden Carlson the “break in case of emergency” post player if Isaiah Hartenstein or Chet Holmgren is limited.

Gary Trent

MIL Guard #5
Gary Trent Jr. (calf) is out for Saturday’s game against the Bulls.

Trent is out after initially being questionable, meaning he will miss a second straight game with a left calf contusion. His absence means more playing time for Ryan Rollins, while Gary Harris may take a hit since Giannis Antetokounmpo is available.

Aaron Nesmith

IND Guard-Forward #23

Aaron Nesmith (knee) is available for Saturday’s game against the Heat.

Nesmith has been out for six weeks with a sprained left knee, so fantasy managers should not expect too much from him in his first game back. While Nesmith did not offer consistent fantasy value before the injury, Indiana’s lack of consistent scorers gives him a chance to change that once he’s no longer under any restrictions.

Ajay Mitchell

OKC Guard #25
Ajay Mitchell (concussion protocol) is not on the injury report for Sunday’s game against the 76ers.

Mitchell has missed Oklahoma City’s last two games, freeing up additional minutes for fellow reserves Aaron Wiggins and Isaiah Joe. Those three may cancel each other out on Sunday, but Mitchell has offered the highest fantasy ceiling to this point in the season.

Tyler Herro

MIA Guard #14
Tyler Herro (toe) is progressing in his recovery but still lacks a clearly defined return timeline.

Herro has not appeared in a game since December 9, with Saturday’s matchup with the Pacers being the seventh straight that he’s missed. According to Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra, the guard is progressing in his recovery, but he does not have a timeline for return. Once Herro is cleared to return and play without restrictions, Pelle Larsson is the player most likely headed to the bench, with Davion Mitchell’s defense keeping him with the starters.

Julian Champagnie

SAS Forward #30
Julian Champagnie and Victor Wembanyama will move into the starting lineup for Saturday’s game against the Jazz.

The Spurs will be without De’Aaron Fox for Saturday’s game due to left adductor tightness. His absence means that Stephon Castle and Devin Vassell will shift up a position, with Champagnie moving into the starting lineup. Completing the quintet are Harrison Barnes and Victor Wembanyama. Wemby’s move into the lineup pushes Luke Kornet to the bench.

Steven Adams

HOU Center #12
Steven Adams will be in the starting lineup for Saturday’s game against the Cavaliers.

The Rockets won’t have Alperen Şengün for Saturday’s game, as he has been ruled out with left calf tightness. As a result, Adams will move into the starting lineup, where he can provide streaming value for those needing rebounds and blocks. Also, Clint Capela should play rotation minutes off the bench. Amen Thompson, Kevin Durant, Tari Eason and Jabari Smith Jr. complete the starting five.

Josh Giddey

CHI Guard #3

Josh Giddey (ankle) is available for Saturday’s game against the Bucks.

Giddey was initially questionable with a sprained left ankle. He will fill his usual role within the Bulls’ starting lineup and can be a triple-double threat on most nights.

Kel'el Ware

MIA Center #7

Kel’el Ware (quad) is available for Saturday’s game against the Pacers.

Added to the Heat injury report because of a right quad contusion, Ware has been upgraded from probable to available. He’ll take on his role as the starting center, continuing to serve as the lone post player while Bam Adebayo remains out with a back injury.
