Rotoworld

De'Andre Hunter

CLE Small Forward #12

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
De’Andre Hunter (thumb) is questionable for Game 3 on Friday against the Pacers.

Hunter, who dislocated the thumb on his shooting (right) hand during Game 1, was one of three Cavaliers’ rotation players to miss Game 2, with Darius Garland and Evan Mobley being the others. Hunter’s absence led to more rotation minutes for Isaac Okoro, who logged 30 minutes in Game 2 and finished with five points, two rebounds, one assist and two steals. How much Okoro plays in Game 3 will also depend on the status of Evan Mobley (ankle), who did not play in Game 2.

Craig Porter

CLE Guard #9

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Craig Porter Jr., Donovan Mitchell, Jaylon Tyson, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen will start against the 76ers on Friday.

Porter will fill Darius Garland’s spot in the starting lineup as he is sidelined with the same toe injury that has given him trouble all season. Porter has been able to stuff the stat sheet when he’s gotten the opportunity to play big minutes this year. It’s possible this ends up being more than a one-game absence for Garland, so Porter could hold some long-term value.

John Collins

LAC Forward-Center #20
John Collins (groin) is available to play against the Raptors on Friday.

Collins missed Wednesday’s game against the Wizards, and after initially being listed as questionable, he’ll be back to take on Toronto. Collins’ return lines up with Kawhi Leonard being out, so Kobe Sanders should remain a starter for another game.

Joel Embiid

PHI Center-Forward #21

Joel Embiid (knee) is available for Friday’s game against the Cavaliers.

Embiid was initially listed as probable with left knee injury management, so his availability against the Cavaliers Friday isn’t a surprise. The 31-year-old center had 20 points in Wednesday’s loss to the Cavaliers.

Kam Jones

IND Guard #7

Kam Jones (ankle) is available to play against the Pelicans on Friday.

Jones was a late addition to the injury report, but he will be able to suit up against New Orleans. However, his role has been minimal since he debuted last month, and there is no guarantee he sees the floor in this game.

Paul George

PHI Forward #8

Paul George (knee) is available for Friday’s game against the Cavaliers.

George was initially listed as probable with left knee injury management, so his availability against the Cavaliers Friday isn’t a surprise. The 35-year-old small forward had 17 points in 30 minutes against Cleveland on Wednesday.

Bruce Brown

DEN Guard-Forward #11

Bruce Brown (knee) is probable to play against the Wizards on Saturday.

Brown is expected to remain available despite a lingering knee issue. He should continue to play his typical role off the bench, which hasn’t result in much fantasy production from him.

Aaron Gordon

DEN Forward #32

Aaron Gordon (hamstring) is probable for Saturday’s game against the Wizards.

Gordon doesn’t appear to be in serious jeopardy of missing Saturday’s game against the Wizards. The 30-year-old power forward is listed as probable with a hamstring injury. With Nikola Jokic and Christian Braun sidelined, the Nuggets will need Gordon in this one.

Jamal Murray

DEN Guard #27

Jamal Murray (ankle, illness) is probable to play against the Wizards on Saturday.

Murray is still managing ailments, but it isn’t expected to impact his availability. He just scored 68 points in 24 hours on Tuesday and Wednesday and should have no issues remaining productive this weekend.

Lauri Markkanen

UTA Forward-Center #23
Lauri Markkanen (illness) is out Saturday’s game against the Mavericks.

Markkanen is set to miss his third game in a row with an illness against the Mavericks on Saturday. Cody Williams, Brice Sensabaugh and Kyle Filipowski are all candidates for increased minutes and usage with Markkanen out.

Garrett Temple

TOR Guard-Forward #17

Garrett Temple (back) is available to play against the Clippers on Friday.

Temple will be back after a one-game absence. However, he isn’t part of the rotation when healthy, so there aren’t any fantasy implications with his return.
