White is dealing with right calf tightness that will force him to miss at least four games. With White sidelined, Ayo Dosunmu and Kevin Huerter should see additional runout of the backcourt.

Camara had another well-rounded performance in Wednesday’s win, despite shooting inefficiently from beyond the arc. He made all of his two-point shots, finished statistically as one of the best rebounders and facilitators on the team, and was the only Trail Blazer to record multiple blocks and steals. His fantasy ceiling isn’t sky-high, but he’s proven to be more than capable of streaming together similar stat lines as a nice two-way wing.

Sharpe was one of two Trail Blazers to score at least 20 points in the victory. Three-point shooting almost amounted to half of his scoring total, and his trio of assists was tied for second most on the team. Sharpe didn’t have much production elsewhere from a statistical standpoint, but his scoring was enough to leave him with at least a solid night’s worth of production.

Avdija hit the 40-point mark for the first time all season on Wednesday to continue with what’s been an outstanding start to the calendar year. Through four games in 2026, Avdija’s lowest scoring total was a 29-point outing against the Spurs, which resulted in a triple-double. He’s gone for 30 or more points in three of the last four games and has remained a triple-double threat on a nightly basis. He’ll have an opportunity to be effective against the Rockets again on Friday.

Eason got up a lot of shots on Wednesday, but not a lot of them fell. His biggest near-make came in the closing moments of the game as he almost successfully tapped in a missed Kevin Durant jump shot at the buzzer to give the Rockets the win. Instead, the ball was still in his hand as the horn sounded, and the shot was waived off. Eason still had good fantasy production on the evening, thanks to his team-high and season-high in rebounds. Houston will face Portland again on Friday.

Thompson was one of the Rockets’ most productive offensive performers on Wednesday. On efficient 50-percent shooting, the former fourth-overall pick notched his 14th 20-point game of the season, and fourth in the past five games. He made his usual contributions as a passer, but also hit the glass hard to finish as one of three Houston starters to collect double-digit rebounds. Thompson’s work on the defense end also added to his overall production on the night, leading to a nice night as far as fantasy basketball goes.

On the heels of a game-winning shot against his former employer, the Suns, Durant delivered a fantastic scoring performance on Wednesday in the one-point loss. He tied a season-high in points, despite making just two three-pointers on the night. And with just one stock and no assists, there wasn’t much to the two-time Finals MVP’s final stat line. His scoring was the story in this game.

Melton’s season-best performance wasn’t highlighted by any extraordinary takeover moments. The veteran guard never scored more than eight points in any quarter; instead, he picked his spots en route to setting a new season-high. Melton got a late start to the season due to a knee injury that kept him out until December. But since returning, he’s had several good scoring performances to boost this Warriors bench. He’ll have a chance to follow up his Wednesday performance with another strong one on Friday against the Kings.

Butler notched back-to-back 20-point games for the first time since mid-December, making use of the free-throw line to accomplish such. Thirteen of his points came in the second half to help the Warriors maintain their double-digit halftime lead, and Butler didn’t make any other noteworthy contributions in this game from a statistical standpoint. His scoring did the heavy lifting for his fantasy production.

One game after fouling out against the Clippers, Curry went without a foul on Wednesday and logged 34 minutes against the Bucks. On the court, the two-time MVP shot the ball very well from the floor and posted a 13-point third quarter to help ultimately reach the 30-point mark on the evening. Curry also tied a team-high in assists and committed just one turnover in the process. He’ll get a chance to have a great impact again when he faces the Kings on Friday for the first time this season.

Rollins followed up a relatively mediocre performance against the Kings with a pretty solid outing on Wednesday against the Warriors. By way of efficient shooting, he concluded as Milwaukee’s second-leading scorer, and he also finished second on the team in total rebounds. Add in Rollins’ contributions as a passer, and his pair of three-pointers, and you get what was a productive performance as far as fantasy basketball goes. He’ll have a chance to log another productive game on Friday against the Lakers.
