Kevin Huerter

CHI Guard-Forward #13

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Kevin Huerter (back) is questionable to play against the Bucks on Tuesday.

Huerter missed Sunday’s game, but he could be back against Milwaukee. Yuki Kawamura, Dalen Terry and Julian Phillips played significant roles in the blowout loss but will lose out on minutes if Huerter and Jalen Smith (calf) return. However, none of the three are productive enough to be worth streaming regardless.

Julian Champagnie (knee) is available for Friday’s game against the Clippers.

Initially questionable with a sore right knee, Champagnie is good to go. He’ll occupy his usual place in the Spurs’ starting lineup.

Royce O'Neale

PHX Forward #00
Royce O’Neale (foot) is available for Friday’s game against the Pelicans.

O’Neale went through his pregame routine without any issues, so he will play against the Pelicans. The veteran forward will occupy his usual spot in the starting lineup, continuing to fill in for the injured Dillon Brooks.

Spencer Jones

DEN Forward #21

Spencer Jones (shoulder) is available for Friday’s game against the Knicks.

Jones is back after missing three games with a shoulder injury, but so are Aaron Gordon and Cameron Johnson. Playing time may be limited for Jones, who should not be rostered in redraft leagues.

Cameron Johnson

DEN Forward #23
Cameron Johnson (ankle) is available for Friday’s game against the Knicks.

Injured in late February, Johnson is good to go for Friday’s game. He will be under a minutes limit on Friday, which may leave Julian Strawther in the starting lineup. Fantasy-wise, Johnson has been a disappointment in his first season with the Nuggets. More important for him is to be healthy and playing well going into the postseason.

Aaron Gordon

DEN Forward #32
Aaron Gordon (hamstring) is available for Friday’s game against the Knicks.

Sidelined since January 23 with a strained right hamstring, Gordon is officially available to return on Friday. His minutes will be limited at the start, so fantasy managers are unlikely to receive full value when slotting him into lineups. If Gordon starts on Friday, he’ll push Zeke Nnaji to the bench.

Nikola Vučević

BOS Center #4
Nikola Vučević (finger) will not return to Friday’s game against the Mavericks.

On the night that they welcomed Jayson Tatum back into the fold, the Celtics lost another member of their rotation. Vučević fractured his right ring finger during his first stint on the court, exiting moments later. Luka Garza has moved into the rotation to serve as the backup center, and that may be his job for the foreseeable future.

Reed Sheppard

HOU Guard #15
Reed Sheppard, Amen Thompson, Kevin Durant, Tari Eason and Alperen Şengün will start Friday’s game against the Trail Blazers.

The Rockets won’t have Jabari Smith Jr. for Friday’s game, as he is out with an ankle injury. As a result, Sheppard, who started for Thompson earlier this week, returns to the starting lineup.

Josh Hart

NYK Guard #3

Josh Hart (back) is available for Friday’s game against the Nuggets.

Hart was initially listed as questionable with a lower back contusion, but was ruled in for Friday’s game against the Nuggets. Hart had 10 points and 12 rebounds in Wednesday’s loss to the Thunder.

Royce O'Neale

PHX Forward #00
Royce O’Neale (foot) is questionable for Friday’s game against the Pelicans.

O’Neale is dealing with a sore right foot and will go through his pregame routine before a decision is made regarding his availability for Friday’s game. If O’Neale can’t play, Grayson Allen and Ryan Dunn are potential replacements in the starting lineup.

Jabari Smith

HOU Forward #10

Jabari Smith Jr. (ankle) is out for Friday’s game against the Trail Blazers.

Smith is set to miss only his fourth game of the season on Friday against the Trail Blazers. The 22-year-old forward is dealing with an ankle injury. With Smith out, Tari Eason and Josh Okogie should see additional minutes.
