Kevin Durant

HOU Forward #7

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Kevin Durant accumulated 34 points (14-of-26 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), five rebounds, seven assists, three blocks and two three-pointers in Saturday’s loss to the Mavericks.

With Houston losing Alperen Şengün to a sprained right ankle just over a minute into Saturday’s game, Durant was needed to do even more offensively. Despite even more defensive attention, he shot over 50 percent from the field and was a steal shy of a complete stat line. Over the past two weeks, Durant has offered top-15 per-game value in eight-cat formats. The Rockets play four games in Week 12, starting with the Suns on Monday.

Devin Vassell

SAS Guard-Forward #24

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson said on Tuesday that Devin Vassell (adductor) is progressing and “doing some live stuff” in practice.

Counting Tuesday’s game against the Rockets, Vassell has missed San Antonio’s last 12 games with a strained left adductor. While Johnson’s update was positive, the Spurs’ wing does not have a return timeline. Julian Champagnie has been a solid streaming option as Vassell’s replacement in the starting lineup.

Andre Drummond

PHI Center #1

Tyrese Maxey, VJ Edgecombe, Kelly Oubre Jr., Dominick Barlow and Andre Drummond will start Tuesday’s game against the Suns.

With Tuesday being Philadelphia’s second game in as many nights, Joel Embiid not playing was expected. He’ll be replaced in the lineup by Drummond, with Adem Bona picking up additional minutes off the bench. Also, Oubre gets another start with Paul George missing a second straight game.

Paul George

PHI Forward #8
Paul George (knee) is out for Tuesday’s game against the Suns.

George will miss a second consecutive game, as he did not play in Monday’s win over the Pacers. Kelly Oubre Jr. was productive as the spot starter and should retain that role. Oubre is worth streaming in deep leagues when allowed to start.

Josh Giddey

CHI Guard #3
Josh Giddey (hamstring) is out for Tuesday’s game against the Clippers.

While Giddey will miss another game, he is progressing and could be available for Thursday’s game against the Timberwolves. Tre Jones will remain in the starting lineup, which raises his fantasy ceiling.

Steven Adams

HOU Center #12
Rockets coach Ime Udoka told reporters Steven Adams (ankle) is out indefinitely.

Adams left Sunday’s game against the Pelicans with an ankle injury and didn’t return. While X-rays were negative, Udoka told reporters Tuesday that Adams is dealing with a Grade 3 ankle sprain and he’s out indefinitely. With Adams sidelined, Tari Eason will move back into the starting lineup and Clint Capela could move into the rotation as the backup center.

Tari Eason

HOU Forward #17
Tari Eason (ankle) is available for Tuesday’s game against the Spurs.

Eason is returning from a five-game absence due to an ankle injury. With Steven Adams (ankle) now set to miss extended time, Eason should slide right back into the starting lineup against the Spurs on Tuesday.

Patrick Williams

CHI Forward #44

Patrick Williams (ankle) is out for Tuesday’s game against the Clippers.

Williams injured his ankle last week against the Nets. This will be the second game he’s missed since then. Kevin Huerter should continue to pick up extra minutes off the bench in Williams’ absence.

Santi Aldama

MEM Forward-Center #7
Santi Aldama (knee) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Hawks.

The Grizzlies are back stateside after splitting two games in Europe with the Magic. Yet to miss a game this season, Aldama logged 25 minutes in Sunday’s win over Orlando. If he’s unable to play on Wednesday, Santi would likely be replaced in the starting lineup by Jock Landale.

Jaylin Williams

OKC Power Forward #10
Jaylin Williams (glute) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Bucks.

Williams exited Monday’s win over the Cavaliers during the first half with a left glute contusion. Kenrich Williams started the third quarter and finished with five points, four rebounds, three assists and one blocked shot. “Kenny Hustle” would not be worth the risk if JayWill remains out.

Alex Caruso

OKC Guard #9
Alex Caruso (back) is out for Wednesday’s game against the Bucks.

Caruso exited Monday’s win over the Cavaliers after playing seven first-half minutes. His absence means more minutes will be available to fellow reserves Isaiah Joe and Cason Wallace. The latter offers a higher ceiling, especially in category leagues.
