AJ Johnson

WAS Shooting Guard #5

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

AJ Johnson led the Wizards with 20 points (7-of-20 FGs), five rebounds, one assist, one steal and one three-pointer in a 74-58 loss to the 76ers on Tuesday.

Johnson stepped up on the offensive end with Tre Johnson (hamstring), Will Riley (thumb), Alex Sarr, Bub Carrington and Kyshawn George all sidelined. The latter three were just getting a rest night, and they could be back to play Utah on Wednesday. Johnson wasn’t flawless, but he was able to provide some buckets as the offensive engine.

Anfernee Simons

CHI Guard #4

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, Anfernee Simons has been traded to the Bulls for Nikola Vučević.

The Bulls and Celtics will swap second-round picks as part of the deal. Boston acquires much-needed help in the frontcourt, and Chicago gets a quality shooting and scoring option in Simons. The Bulls recently brought in Jaden Ivey and Mike Conley, so expect more moves from Chicago before Thursday’s trade deadline.

Nikola Vučević

CHI Center #9
ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that Nikola Vučević has been traded to the Boston Celtics.

With Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan already in Sacramento, the final player in Chicago’s failed “Big 3" is now gone. Vooch gives Boston its much-needed center while sending a sharpshooting microwave scorer to the Bulls. Vučević’s arrival in Boston makes Neemias Queta a drop candidate in standard leagues, as the veteran big man has a storied history of durability.

Andrew Wiggins

MIA Forward #22
Andrew Wiggins (hamstring) is questionable for Tuesday’s matchup with the Hawks.

Wiggins continues to deal with left hamstring tightness, and he’s a late addition to Tuesday’s injury report. He played through the injury on Sunday, but if he’s forced to sit out against Atlanta, Jaime Jaquez Jr. could enjoy an expanded role.

Chris Boucher

BOS Forward #99

Chris Boucher (personal) is out for Tuesday’s matchup with the Mavericks.

Boucher will sit out against Dallas, but his availability isn’t meaningful in the world of fantasy hoops, and it doesn’t affect Boston’s rotation.

Alex Caruso

OKC Guard #9
Alex Caruso (adductor) is questionable for Tuesday’s matchup with the Magic.

Caruso has been upgraded from doubtful to questionable, so he’s got a chance to return following a six-game absence. Until Caruso is back, Isaiah Joe and Aaron Wiggins should see additional playing time.

Bronny James

LAL Guard #9

Bronny James (leg) is available for Tuesday’s matchup with the Nets.

James will return following a one-game absence, but his availability has no impact in the realm of fantasy hoops.

D'Angelo Russell

DAL Guard #5
D’Angelo Russell (illness) and Brandon Williams (leg) are doubtful for Tuesday’s matchup with the Celtics.

Ryan Nembhard is expected to play, and he could see significant usage with both Russell and Williams sidelined. Cooper Flagg should handle the majority of the Mavericks’ playmaking responsibilities as the de facto point guard.

Mike Conley

CHI Guard #10

Mike Conley has been traded to the Chicago Bulls in a multi-team deal, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania.

Conley will head to Chi-Town with Jaden Ivey as Kevin Huerter and Dario Šarić end up in Detroit, and the Timberwolves send a 2026 protected first-round pick swap to the Pistons. The Wolves save money and roster space as they look to amp up their pursuit of Giannis Antetokounmpo. Conley’s role isn’t expected to expand with his new team, and he can remain on the waiver wire in most formats.

Kevin Huerter

DET Guard-Forward #13
ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that Kevin Huerter and Dario Šarić have been traded to the Pistons in a deal that sends Jaden Ivey and Mike Conley Jr. to the Bulls.

Huerter will offer valuable floor spacing to a Pistons team that has excelled with Cade Cunningham surrounded by capable suitors. Šarić will offer frontcourt depth behind Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart. Neither Huerter nor Šarić are worth a look outside of deeper fantasy leagues.
