Lewis, the 40th overall pick in the 2023 draft, played for the Lakers and Nets last season. In 28 combined appearances, 21 for the Nets, he averaged 4.1 points and 2.0 rebounds in 11.7 minutes. Lewis most recently played for the Mavericks in summer league action.

Gill’s availability doesn’t impact fantasy hoops, as he’s not a part of Washington’s rotation.

Joe will be out for at least one more game, which means Kevin Huerter and Ron Holland II should see increased run.

Siakam will join the starters on the sideline, and he could be replaced in the first unit by Obi Toppin (back), who has been upgraded to questionable. Jay Huff should see big frontcourt minutes with Ivica Zubac (ankle) still on the shelf.

Nesmith will get the night off on the second leg of a back-to-back set, as most of Indiana’s roster is on the injury report for this one. Fantasy managers looking for fill-in options can check the final injury report for availability, but with every team in action tonight, there are likely more attractive streamers.

Nembhard will join most of Indiana’s roster on the sideline, as the Pacers punt on the second leg of a back-to-back set. Indiana has only seven players available on Monday, and Quenton Jackson should see heavy minutes as the biggest beneficiary of Nembhard’s absence.

Jones exited Sunday’s game late in the third quarter with a sore knee and did not return. That casts some doubt on his availability for Monday’s game against the Raptors. If Jones can’t play, Kobe Sanders may move into the starting lineup.

Santos did not play in the second half of Sunday’s win over the Clippers, finishing with four points, three rebounds, one assist and one block in nine minutes. Following the victory, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said that the team will re-evaluate Santos, whose knee tendinitis remains an issue. At a minimum, he’ll miss Monday’s game, which could mean more playing time for Georges Niang

Quickley has made at least three three-pointers in four straight and five of six games this season. That, along with the rebounds and assists, was the positive from his performance on Sunday. However, Quickley shot poorly against the Lakers, dropping his field-goal percentage to 37.6 percent for the season. It certainly isn’t impossible for a guard to provide solid value despite a low field-goal percentage, but fantasy managers want to see Quickley shoot better than he has.

Barrett has scored at least 20 points in three of his last four games, a stretch that coincides with the Raptors’ loss of Kawhi Leonard to a knee injury. While he didn’t record any defensive stats on Sunday, fantasy managers will be pleased with Barrett’s double-double, his first of the season, and the assists. The Raptors play three games next week, starting with the Clippers on Monday.

Barnes’ mid-range mastery helped him score 29 points, and he’s scored at least 28 in three straight and four of his last five games. The exception was the October 25 loss to the Timberwolves, in which the Raptors’ star went scoreless. With Kawhi Leonard (knee) out for a few weeks, Barnes will need to shoulder more responsibility on both ends of the floor. And he’s shown the ability to do that in the past.
