Zion Williamson

NOP Forward #1

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Zion Williamson (adductor) and Yves Missi (foot, ankle) are questionable for Tuesday’s matchup with the Timberwolves.

Williamson was off the injury report on Monday evening for his hamstring, but the adductor issue is a new one, suggesting he may sit this one out. Missi is also a late addition to the injury report, and if both he and Zion are forced to sit this one out, Derik Queen and Saddiq Bey should see even higher usage. Micah Peavey and Kevon Looney could soak up some additional minutes off the bench.

Jusuf Nurkić

UTA Center #30

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Jusuf Nurkić (rib) is questionable for Friday’s game against the Knicks.

Nurkić missed Thursday’s game against the Nets with a rib injury with Kyle Filipowski replacing him in the starting lineup. Filipowski had 15 points, eight rebounds and five assists in the win over Brooklyn. If Nurkić is out again, Filipowski will likely start again and he just showed he has streaming value under these circumstances.

Ochai Agbaji

TOR Guard #30

Ochai Agbaji (personal) is out for Friday’s game against the Hornets.

Agbaji missed Thursday’s game against the Lakers for personal reasons and will miss Friday’s game against the Hornets as well. Without the 25-year-old guard, AJ Lawson could pick up additional minutes.

Marcus Smart

LAL Guard #36

Marcus Smart (back) is out for Friday’s game against the Celtics.

Smart has missed the last four games with a back injury. He’ll continue to sit out as he manages the injury. Lakers coach JJ Redick told reporters earlier this week that he expected Smart back soon, but he’s missed two games since that quote and remains without a clear timetable to return.

Luka Dončić

LAL Forward-Guard #77

Luka Dončić (personal) is out for Friday’s game against the Celtics.

Dončić is still away from the team for personal reasons after missing Thursday’s game against Toronto. Without the 26-year-old point guard, Gabe Vincent should remain in the starting lineup. Austin Reaves will get a nice usage bump without Dončić as well.

LeBron James

LAL Forward #23

LeBron James (foot) is doubtful for Friday’s game against the Celtics.

Lebron finished with just eight points in the win over the Raptors on Thursday, snapping a streak of 1,297 games where he scored at least 10 points. Now the 40-year-old small forward is doubtful with a foot injury for Friday’s game against the Celtics. Gabe Vincent could move into the starting lineup if James is out, but isn’t worth rostering.

Evan Mobley

CLE Center #4

Evan Mobley (illness) is now questionable for Friday’s game against the Spurs.

Mobley popped up as questionable with an illness Friday afternoon ahead of the Cavaliers’ matchup against the Spurs. The 24-year-old center’s status for the game is certainly up in the air. With Jarrett Allen (finger) already ruled out, the Cavaliers could end up relying on Dean Wade and Nae’Qwan Tomlin in the frontcourt.

Norman Powell

MIA Guard #24

Norman Powell (ankle) is available for Friday’s game against the Magic.

Powell is set to return on Friday against the Magic after missing Wednesday’s loss against the Mavericks. With Tyler Herro (toe) listed as doubtful, Powell is in line to run the offense for the Heat. Pelle Larsson will likely return to the bench with Powell back.

Tyler Herro

MIA Guard #14

Tyler Herro (toe) is doubtful for Friday’s game against the Magic.

Herro was initially listed as questionable, but was downgraded to doubtful and is unlikely to play against the Magic on Friday. If the 25-year-old point guard is ultimately ruled out, Pelle Larsson and Jaime Jaquez Jr. will see extra minutes. Norman Powell would also see a boost in fantasy value without Herro.

Paolo Banchero

ORL Forward #5

Paolo Banchero (groin) is available for Friday’s game against the Heat.

Banchero haș been out since November 14, missing the Magic’s last 10 games. With the 23-year-old power forward back in the lineup, expect Tristan da Silva to return to a bench role. Banchero could be on a minutes restriction in his first game back.

Luke Kornet

SAS Center-Forward #7
Luke Kornet (ankle) is out for Friday’s game against the Cavaliers.

Kornet is set to miss Friday’s game against the Cavaliers with a sore left ankle. Kelly Olynyk should move into the starting lineup with Victor Wembanyama also sidelined while Jeremy Sochan also picks up additional minutes. Olynyk is worth streaming.
