Rotoworld

Luke Kornet

SAS Center-Forward #7

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Luke Kornet (adductor) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Jazz.

Kornet is dealing with left adductor tightness, and his absence could result in Bismack Biyombo moving into the rotation. However, the Spurs could also go small when Victor Wembanyama is off the court, so there’s no need to roster Biyombo in fantasy leagues.

Cooper Flagg

DAL Forward #32

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Cooper Flagg, Max Christie, Caleb Martin, P.J. Washington and Daniel Gafford will start Thursday’s game against the Hornets.

Flagg is back after missing Wednesday’s loss to the Timberwolves. His return coincides with Naji Marshall’s absence, so that’s the lone change to the Mavericks’ starting lineup.

Rudy Gobert

MIN Center #27

Rudy Gobert (ankle) is available to play against the Thunder on Thursday.

Gobert was initially listed as questionable for this game, but he will be good to go against OKC. He was held to just six points and six rebounds in 21 minutes in the Timberwolves’ last game, but he had 14 rebounds in 32 minutes against the Thunder earlier this season.

Collin Gillespie

PHX Guard #12
Collin Gillespie (hand) is available for Thursday’s game against the Pistons.

Gillespie is back after sitting out Tuesday’s win over the Nets. His return will likely push Jordan Goodwin to the bench, but both players will see plenty of action since the Suns won’t have Devin Booker or Jalen Green.

Jonas Valančiūnas

DEN Center #17
Jonas Valančiūnas (calf) is available to play against the Nets on Thursday.

Valančiūnas was initially listed as probable, and now he is officially cleared to suit up. This could mean that he won’t play the second leg of this back-to-back against the Clippers since he didn’t play the second leg of their last back-to-back. If that happens, Zeke Nnaji could return to the starting lineup.

Jamal Murray

DEN Guard #27

Jamal Murray (hamstring, hip) is available for Thursday’s game against the Nets.

Murray is officially available after being listed as probable on the initial injury report. He’ll take on his usual role as the starting point guard, sharing the backcourt with Jalen Pickett.

Jalen Smith

CHI Forward-Center #25
Coby White, Isaac Okoro, Matas Buzelis, Jalen Smith and Nikola Vučević will start Thursday’s game against the Heat.

The Bulls won’t have Josh Giddey (hamstring) for Thursday’s game, opening up a spot in the starting lineup. They’ll go back to the lineup they used when Giddey was being brought off the bench as part of his minutes restriction, with Smith starting alongside Vooch. In this role, “Stix” is worth rostering in deep leagues.

Gui Santos

GSW Forward #15

Gui Santos (calf) is probable to play against the Pistons on Friday.

Santos is managing a calf injury, but he should be able to play through it. He scored a season-high 16 points against Utah on Wednesday, but it is unlikely he repeats that level of production against Detroit.

Christian Koloko

ATL Center #35
Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Dyson Daniels, Vit Krejci, Corey Kispert and Christian Koloko will start against the Rockets on Thursday.

Atlanta will be incredibly shorthanded for this game, with Jalen Johnson (calf) and Onyeka Okongwu (mouth) both sidelined. Krejci and Koloko will join the starting group, and there should be extra minutes off the bench available for Mouhamed Gueye and Asa Newell.

Josh Okogie

HOU Guard #20

Amen Thompson, Josh Okogie, Kevin Durant, Jabari Smith Jr. and Alperen Şengün will start Thursday’s game against the Hawks.

The lone change to the Rockets’ starting lineup for Thursday night is Okogie, who replaces Tari Eason for the second night of Houston’s back-to-back. With Dorian Finney-Smith also out, Okogie may play a bit more than he usually would, raising his fantasy ceiling slightly. He still is not someone worth rostering in most leagues.

Alperen Sengun

HOU Center #28
Alperen Şengün (ankle) is available for Thursday’s game against the Hawks.

Şengün was a game-time decision for Thursday’s game due to a sprained right ankle, but he’s good to go. He’ll take on his usual role as the starting center, with Clint Capela missing out on a potential increase to his playing time.
