Rotoworld

Jalen Brunson

NYK Guard #11

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Jalen Brunson had 26 points (8-of-20 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs), one rebound, three assists, two steals and five three-pointers in the Knicks’ 127-97 victory over the Trail Blazers on Friday.

The Knicks appear to be done messing around. New York has now won five games in a row since a 2-7 stretch. Brunson continues to lead the way and is so consistently good it’s almost boring. The 29-year-old point guard has scored at least 20 points in 11-of-13 games in January. He’s provided 11th-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Knicks close out the week with a matchup against the Lakers on Sunday.

Jaylon Tyson

CLE Guard-Forward #20

Jaylon Tyson (ankle) is available for Monday’s game against the Nuggets.

Tyson was initially questionable due to a sprained left ankle. He’ll once again be in the starting lineup, as the Cavaliers remain without Dean Wade for another game due to his sprained left ankle.

Dean Wade

CLE Forward-Center #32
Dean Wade (ankle) has been ruled out against the Nuggets on Monday.

This will be a second straight absence for Wade, though he did go through shootaround Monday morning, suggesting he could return soon. His next chance to play will come against the Wizards on Wednesday. One of Wade, Jaylon Tyson or Sam Merrill will head to the bench when Wade returns.

Christian Braun

DEN Guard #0

Christian Braun (ankle) is available for Monday’s game against the Cavaliers.

Braun is good to go after initially being listed as probable for Monday’s game. After playing 32 minutes in Saturday’s win over the Bulls, the Nuggets’ guard will likely take on a similar workload against the Cavaliers.

Nikola Jokić

DEN Center #15

Nikola Jokić (ankle) is available to play against the Cavaliers on Monday.

Jokić was initially listed as probable, and he’s now officially good to go against Cleveland. He has recorded a triple-double in two straight games and will look to keep that streak going in this outing.

Jamal Murray

DEN Guard #27
Jamal Murray (hip) is available for Monday’s game against the Cavaliers.

Initially questionable for Monday’s game, Murray is available and will occupy his usual place within the Nuggets’ starting lineup. Jalen Pickett misses out on a potential spot start that would have raised his fantasy ceiling.

Nikola Topić

OKC Guard #44

Nikola Topić (groin) will play for the Thunder’s G League affiliate on Monday.

Topić began chemotherapy treatments in late October after being diagnosed with testicular cancer. While he will be available to play on Monday, the rookie still does not have a return timeline for NBA games. Topić is unlikely to affect redraft leagues this season, but he should still be rostered in dynasty leagues.

Asa Newell

ATL Forward #14
Nickeil Alexander-Walker, CJ McCollum, Zaccharie Risacher, Asa Newell and Onyeka Okongwu will start Monday’s game against the Timberwolves.

The Hawks are without Dyson Daniels and Jalen Johnson for Monday’s game, opening up two spots in the starting lineup. McCollum and Newell will fill the voids. While the latter is a player of greater interest to dynasty league managers, the former offers greater value in the short term.

Precious Achiuwa

SAC Forward #9
Russell Westbrook, Nique Clifford, DeMar DeRozan, Precious Achiuwa and Maxime Raynaud will start against the Pelicans on Monday.

The only change to the Kings’ starting lineup will be the return of Achiuwa, who was basically out of the rotation for the last three games after starting for half of December and all of January. That will push Daeqwon Plowden, who was productive on Saturday, back to the bench.

Lindy Waters

SAS Forward #43

Lindy Waters III (knee) has been ruled out against the Lakers on Tuesday.

This will be a fourth straight absence for Waters, though his status doesn’t have an impact on the Spurs’ rotation. His continued absence won’t impact the Spurs’ minutes allocation.

Danny Wolf

BKN Forward #2
Nolan Traoré, Terance Mann, Danny Wolf, Noah Clowney and Nic Claxton will start Monday’s game against the Bulls.

The Nets won’t have Egor Dëmin (rest) or Michael Porter Jr. (knee) for Monday’s game, opening up two spots in the starting lineup. Mann and Wolf will fill the voids, with the latter offering slightly higher fantasy upside.
