Julius Randle

MIN Forward-Center #30

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Julius Randle (thumb) is available for Wednesday’s game against the Raptors.

Randle is still dealing with a sore left thumb, which happens to be on his shooting hand. The 31-year-old power forward appears ready to continue playing through the injury. Randle’s had 27 and 19 points in his last two game since incurring the injury, so it isn’t slowing him down very much, which is great news for fantasy managers.

Jose Alvarado

NYK Guard #15

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
ESPN’s Shams Charania reports Jose Alvarado has been traded to the Knicks in exchange for Dalen Terry, two second-round picks and cash.

Alvarado will provide some extra depth in the backcourt for New York, meaning he’ll join Miles McBride, Tyler Kolek and Jordan Clarkson in the rotation. Unless more moves are coming, that won’t leave enough minutes for any of them to provide value in standard leagues, barring an injury to a starter. Alvarado’s defense and playmaking should help the Knicks when Brunson is off the floor in the postseason.

RJ Barrett

TOR Forward-Guard #9
RJ Barrett (injury management) has been ruled out for Thursday’s game against the Bulls.

Barrett has dealt with his fair share of injuries this season, but his name has also been floated in numerous trade rumors, so it’s possible that he is also on his way to another team. Regardless, he will be out on Thursday, which should lead to more minutes for Ja’Kobe Walker and Gradey Dick.

Chris Boucher

UTA Forward #99
ESPN’s Shams Charania reports the Jazz have acquired Chris Boucher.

Boucher has barely seen the floor for the Celtics this season, and while he’ll now get a fresh start in Utah, that likely won’t impact his place in the rotation. If they keep him around, Boucher will be a bench piece for them.

Nigel Hayes-Davis

MIL Forward #21
ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that the Bucks acquired Nigel Hayes-Davis and Nick Richards from the Suns in exchange for Cole Anthony and Amir Coffey.

Hayes-Davis heads back to the state of Wisconsin, where he was a star at the University of Wisconsin in college. The 31-year-old returned to the NBA this season after playing seven years abroad. He’s averaging just 7.2 minutes per game in 27 games for the Suns.

Amir Coffey

PHX Guard-Forward #17

Amir Coffey has been traded to the Suns.

Coffey has barely been in the rotation for the Bucks this season, and now he’ll become a depth piece for Phoenix. He may see a few minutes per game, but he won’t play a large role with the Suns, barring multiple injuries on the wing.

Nick Richards

MIL Center #2
ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that the Bucks acquired Nick Richards and Nigel Hayes-Davis from the Suns in exchange for Cole Anthony and Amir Coffey.

Richards has appeared in just 28 games for the Suns this season, starting two, after starting 43 games for the Hornets and Suns last year. He’ll give the Bucks more depth at center and could even play alongside Myles Turner if the Bucks want to stretch Turner out on offense. Historically, Richards has not produced much defensive value in fantasy, which limits his overall usefulness. He should probably be left on the wire in most formats.

Cole Anthony

PHX Guard #50
ESPN’s Shams Charania reports the Suns have acquired Cole Anthony and Amir Coffey in exchange for Nick Richards and Nigel Hayes-Davis.

Anthony’s first season in Milwaukee was shaky, and they’ll move on from him quickly to acquired depth at center. Anthony will be a depth guard for Phoenix, but he hasn’t made much of a fantasy impact this year, and there is too much depth in the backcourt in Phoenix for that to change.

Giannis Antetokounmpo

MIL Forward #34

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports the Bucks plan to keep Giannis Antetokounmpo through the trade deadline.

Despite all the reports that Milwaukee was looking to move Giannis, they will keep him through the season, though managers shouldn’t expect to see him often. He’s currently sidelined with a calf injury, and there is no reason for them to rush him back. Of course, this isn’t going to quiet any trade rumors, and teams will be revisiting a potential deal this offseason.

Haywood Highsmith

FA Forward #7

Nets waived Haywood Highsmith.

Brooklyn acquired Highsmith from Miami in August after undergoing knee surgery that was supposed to keep him out 8-10 weeks. He never ended up suiting up for Brooklyn, and now he’ll enter free agency.

Tre Jones

CHI Guard #30
Tre Jones (hamstring) has been ruled out against the Raptors on Thursday.

Jones was made available for Chicago’s last game, but he didn’t see the floor. Now, he’s been ruled out for this one. Jaden Ivey is expected to be available, and Collin Sexton could make his debut as well, which should help fill some of the guard minutes with Jones out.
