Miles Bridges

CHA Forward #0

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Miles Bridges (ankle) is probable for Friday’s game against the Bucks.

Bridges was held out of Wednesday’s loss to the Warriors, with Collin Sexton playing 27 minutes as his replacement in the starting lineup. Look for Sexton to head to the bench if Bridges plays, and it appears more likely than not that he will.

Zach LaVine

SAC Guard #8

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Zach LaVine (ankle) has been ruled out against the Suns on Friday.

LaVine hasn’t played since Dec. 14, and he won’t make his return against Phoenix. Precious Achiuwa should continue to start, though he hasn’t been consistently productive for fantasy managers. Dennis Schroder has been playing well off the bench with LaVine sidelined and is the better fantasy option.

De'Anthony Melton

GSW Guard #8
De’Anthony Melton (knee) has been ruled out against the Thunder on Friday.

Melton will sit out the first leg of this back-to-back, meaning he should be made available against the Jazz on Saturday. The Warriors are also without Stephen Curry (ankle) and Jimmy Butler (illness) for this game, so there should be plenty of minutes for Brandin Podziemski, Pat Spencer and Gary Payton II.

Jimmy Butler

GSW Forward #10
Jimmy Butler (illness) has been ruled out against the Thunder on Friday.

Butler was a late addition to the injury report, and he now won’t be available against OKC, leaving the Warriors incredibly shorthanded. Brandin Podziemski and Will Richard should play significant roles in this game, and Buddy Hield could make a return to the rotation.

Stephen Curry

GSW Guard #30
Stephen Curry (ankle) has been ruled out against the Thunder on Friday.

Curry will join Draymond Green (rest) and Jimmy Butler (illness) on the sidelines for this game after tweaking his ankle against the Warriors on Wednesday. His absence should open up minutes for Pat Spencer and Brandin Podziemski and plenty of shots for everyone available.

Jarred Vanderbilt

LAL Forward #2

Jarred Vanderbilt (leg) is probable to play against the Grizzlies on Friday.

Vanderbilt is now expected to play after initially being listed as questionable. He’ll occupy his typical role off the bench, where he’ll play a decent amount but won’t be much of a factor for fantasy managers.

Jimmy Butler

GSW Forward #10
Jimmy Butler (illness) is questionable to play against the Thunder on Friday.

Draymond Green (rest) is out, and now Butler joins Stephen Curry (ankle) as questionable. This could be an incredibly shorthanded lineup against the defending champs. Brandin Podziemski and Will Richard should take on extra minutes if Butler is unavailable, with Podz likely to be the better streaming option.

Tristan Vukcevic

WAS Forward #00

Tristan Vukčević (illness) is questionable to play against the Nets on Friday.

Vukčević is a late addition to the injury report, but with both Alex Sarr and Marvin Bagley healthy, Vukčević’s status won’t impact Washington’s rotation.

Trae Young

ATL Guard #11
Trae Young (quad) has been ruled out against the Knicks on Friday.

This will be a third straight absence for Young, who is now dealing with a quad injury after missing time with a knee injury. Nickeil Alexander-Walker should remain in the starting unit and remain an excellent option for fantasy managers.

Dean Wade

CLE Forward-Center #32
Dean Wade (knee) is questionable to play against the Nuggets on Friday.

Wade is a late addition to the injury report, and he has been starting recently for Cleveland. Jaylon Tyson is the likely replacement in the starting lineup of Wade is unavailable to suit up, and De’Andre Hunter should see extra minutes as well.

De'Andre Hunter

CLE Forward-Guard #12
De’Andre Hunter (illness) is probable to play against the Nuggets on Friday.

Hunter was initially questionable after missing Wednesday’s game, but he is now expected to suit up. Craig Porter Jr. and Nae’Qwan Tomlin took on extra minutes with Hunter out, but they’ll lose out on minutes with Hunter back in the lineup.
