Karl-Anthony Towns

NYK Center-Forward #32

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Karl-Anthony Towns had 39 points (13-of-26 FGs, 7-of-9 FTs), 11 rebounds, four assists, one steal and six three-pointers in the Knicks’ 140-132 victory over the Heat on Friday.

Towns only had one 30-point game on the season entering play Friday, but dropped 31 points in the first half against the Heat. The 29-year-old center became the fifth player in Knicks history to score at least 30 points in the first half. Towns scored more points Friday (39) than he had in his previous two games combined (36). Hopefully, he’ll be able to build on this performance and increase his scoring average to be in line with last year’s.

Joel Embiid

PHI Center-Forward #21

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Tyrese Maxey, VJ Edgecombe, Paul George, Dominick Barlow and Joel Embiid will start Sunday’s game against the Lakers.

Embiid and George are good to go after being listed as probable on the initial injury report. While the latter’s availability does not necessitate a change to the lineup, since he played in Friday’s win over the Bucks, Embiid’s return means Andre Drummond will come off the bench. Also of note, Edgecombe’s minutes restriction should be lifted soon, but it probably won’t happen on Sunday.

Dillon Brooks

PHX Guard-Forward #3
Dillon Brooks (Achilles) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Brooks, who has not missed a game since November 6, is dealing with a sore left Achilles tendon. If he’s unable to play on Monday, the Suns will likely turn to Ryan Dunn to fill the void in the starting lineup. Dunn would be worth a look in deep leagues, as the Suns won’t have Devin Booker available, either.

Isaiah Livers

PHX Forward #18

Isaiah Livers (hip) is out for Monday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Livers’ last appearance in a game was on November 26. His absence does not affect fantasy basketball, as he is not guaranteed rotation minutes when healthy.

Devin Booker

PHX Guard #1
Devin Booker (groin) is out for Monday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Monday’s game will be the third that Booker has missed since suffering a strained right groin during the Suns’ December 1 win over the Lakers. There is hope that he will be able to play in Wednesday’s NBA Cup quarterfinal against the Thunder, but that isn’t guaranteed. Collin Gillespie should remain in the starting lineup, which has raised his fantasy ceiling.

Zach Collins

CHI Forward-Center #12

Zach Collins (wrist) is available for Sunday’s game against the Warriors.

Collins is good to go after the Bulls listed him as probable on the initial injury report. He’ll slot in as the backup center, with Nikola Vučević playing most of the available minutes as the starter.

Ayo Dosunmu

CHI Guard #11
Josh Giddey, Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu, Matas Buzelis and Nikola Vučević will start Sunday’s game against the Warriors.

Dosunmu is available after missing Friday’s loss to the Pacers with a thumb injury. He immediately moves back into the starting lineup, with Julian Phillips being pushed to the bench. That’s the lone change to the Bulls’ starting five.

Buddy Hield

GSW Guard #7
Pat Spencer, Buddy Hield, Will Richard, Jimmy Butler III and Quinten Post will start Sunday’s game against the Bulls.

The Warriors have made just one change to the lineup that began Saturday’s win over the Cavaliers. With Butler available, Jonathan Kuminga heads to the bench. While he should still play plenty, Kuminga’s fantasy ceiling is lowered with the move to the second unit.

Seth Curry

GSW Guard #31
Seth Curry (toe) is available for Sunday’s game against the Bulls.

Curry is officially available to play after sitting out Saturday’s win over the Cavaliers. With De’Anthony Melton and Jimmy Butler III also available, Gui Santos may be the one whose opportunities take the most significant hit. He played 27 minutes off the bench in Cleveland.

Lauri Markkanen

UTA Forward-Center #23
Lauri Markkanen (illness) is out for Sunday’s game against the Thunder.

Initially questionable for Sunday’s game, Markkanen is officially out. His absence opens a spot in the starting lineup and significant usage, given his importance to the Jazz offense. Kyle Filipowski will move into the starting lineup alongside Jusuf Nurkić, raising his fantasy ceiling considerably. Also, look for Brice Sensabaugh and Taylor Hendricks to figure more prominently in the rotation.

Immanuel Quickley

TOR Guard #5

Immanuel Quickley (illness) accounted for 11 points (4-of-9 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), one rebound, five assists and one steal in Sunday’s loss to the Celtics.

Due to an illness, Quickley was not cleared to play until a little over an hour before tipoff. He looked to be under the weather, and dealing with the Celtics’ perimeter defenders didn’t help matters, either. The hope is that Quickley will be at full strength for Tuesday’s NBA Cup quarterfinal matchup with the Knicks.
