Rotoworld

Kawhi Leonard

LAC Forward #2

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Kawhi Leonard led the Clippers with 36 points (12-of-21 FGs, 9-of-10 FTs), seven rebounds, two assists, three steals and three three-pointers in a 140-123 loss to the Heat on Monday.

Finishing as a +8 in 30 minutes in a game your team loses by 17 is impressive. Leonard was able to have an excellent night, though 19 of his points came in the fourth quarter, when the game was practically already decided. It has been a rough season for the Clippers, but Leonard has still been really productive. He’ll look to help them end their losing streak in Atlanta on Wednesday.

Maxi Kleber

LAL Forward #14

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Maxi Kleber (back) is questionable to play against the Spurs on Wednesday.

Kleber’s role has been minimal when the rest of the roster is healthy, which is the case for Wednesday’s game. His absence won’t have much of an impact on the rest of the rotation.

Magic, fantasy managers get 'good news' on Wagner

December 9, 2025 02:26 PM

With Franz Wagner reportedly sidelined for 2-4 weeks, Eric Samulski says Jalen Suggs can be started "pretty much everywhere" in fantasy NBA lineups, while Anthony Black also gains a boost.

Marcus Smart

LAL Guard #36

Marcus Smart (back) is not on the injury report for Wednesday’s game against the Spurs.

Following a six-game absence, Smart will return to the lineup for Wednesday’s NBA Cup quarterfinal game. Smart had previously said he planned to play in this game, so this lines up. He’ll play a large reserve role, though that won’t be enough time for him to make much of an impact in fantasy basketball. However, with only two games being played that day, he is at least worth consideration.

Jordan McLaughlin

SAS Guard #0

Jordan McLaughlin (hamstring) is questionable to play against the Lakers on Wednesday.

McLaughlin has a chance to return after missing over a month. However, with De’Aaron Fox, Stephon Castle and Dylan Harper all healthy, his role will be minimal, if he sees the floor at all.

Victor Wembanyama

SAS Forward-Center #1
Victor Wembanyama (calf) has been ruled out against the Lakers on Wednesday.

Wemby had a chance to play against Los Angeles after practicing this past weekend, but the Spurs will wait at least one more game. Luke Kornet will start at least one more game, where he hasn’t met expectations as a streamer.

Jamal Shead

TOR Guard #23
Jamal Shead, Ochai Agbaji, Brandon Ingram, Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl will start against the Knicks on Tuesday.

Shead will start for the first time this season in place of Immanuel Quickley, who is sidelined with an illness. Agbaji, who scored a season-high 11 points off the bench on Sunday, will replace Ja’Kobe Walter in the starting lineup. Walter had been starting in place of RJ Barrett, so Agbaji could maintain that role moving forward.

Karl-Anthony Towns

NYK Center-Forward #32
Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) will play against the Raptors on Tuesday.

Towns missed Sunday’s game against Orlando, which allowed Mitchell Robinson to move into the starting unit. He’ll head back to the bench with Towns back. KAT was able to practice on Monday, so it doesn’t come as a surprise that he’ll be available with a trip to Las Vegas on the line.

Jamison Battle

TOR Forward #77
Jamison Battle (ankle) has been ruled out against the Knicks on Tuesday.

As expected, Battle will miss a second straight game. He hasn’t played a large role this year, so his minutes will likely be divided up between Sandro Mamukelashvili and Collin Murray-Boyles off the bench.

Jamal Shead

TOR Guard #23

Jamal Shead (quad) is available to play against the Knicks on Tuesday.

Shead will be good to go despite the initial questionable tag. With Immanuel Quickley (illness) sidelined, Shead will have a chance to start in his place at point guard, though he should see a massive bump in minutes regardless.

Immanuel Quickley

TOR Guard #5

Immanuel Quickley (illness) has been ruled out against the Knicks on Tuesday.

Quickley was able to play through an illness on Sunday, but it will keep him on the sidelines against New York in the quarterfinals of the NBA Cup, Jamal Shead, who is available after being listed as questionable with a quad injury, should start in his stead.

Alex Caruso

OKC Guard #9

Alex Caruso (quad) is not on the injury report for Wednesday’s game against the Suns.

Caruso will return from a four-game absence, where he will play a role off the bench on the wing. In a game with extra stakes due to the NBA Cup, Caruso could end up seeing a bump in minutes. However, with how deep OKC is, he has been difficult to rely on for fantasy production this season.
