Josh Giddey

CHI Guard #3

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Josh Giddey (ankle) is available to play against the Warriors on Tuesday.

Giddey was initially listed as probable for this game and has now officially been cleared to suit up. He finished with a triple-double in his last outing and will look to replicate that performance in this one.

Peyton Watson

DEN Guard #8

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Peyton Watson (hamstring) is out for Saturday’s game against the Warriors.

Watson is out for Saturday’s game, but he could return to action at some point next week. His eventual return likely affects Julian Strawther and Spencer Jones more than anyone else, as those two have seen their opportunities increase since Watson strained his hamstring in early February.

Mannix argues LeBron's deferred role helps Lakers

March 13, 2026 03:32 PM

Chris Mannix argues why a reduced role for LeBron James raises the Los Angeles Lakers ceiling with him doing the little things needed for success and allowing Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves to create on offense.

Jamal Murray

DEN Guard #27
Jamal Murray (ankle) and Aaron Gordon (hamstring) are probable for Saturday’s game against the Lakers.

Murray and Gordon are back on the injury report, but both players are listed as probable, so they should be able to play. Gordon did not play in Thursday’s win over the Spurs, with Spencer Jones replacing him in the starting lineup. Fantasy managers should plan for Gordon and Murray to take on their usual responsibilities, which would push Jones to the bench.

Jaxson Hayes

LAL Center-Forward #11

Jaxson Hayes (back) is probable for Saturday’s game against the Nuggets.

Hayes has missed the Lakers’ last two games with a back injury, resulting in more minutes for starting center Deandre Ayton. Jarred Vanderbilt and Drew Timme spent some time on the floor as the backup center, but neither played enough to affect fantasy basketball.

Marcus Smart

LAL Guard #36
Marcus Smart (hip) is not on the injury report for Saturday’s game against the Nuggets.

Smart is back after sitting out Thursday’s win over the Bulls with a hip injury. His return will likely push Rui Hachimura to the bench, as LeBron James returned from a foot injury the last time out.

Dylan Harper

SAS Guard #2
Dylan Harper (calf) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Hornets.

Harper suffered a right calf contusion during Thursday’s loss to the Nuggets, but he was able to return after a brief period on the bench. If he’s unable to play against the Hornets, that may free up a few minutes for Carter Bryant, whose playing time decreased on Thursday due to Harrison Barnes’ return from an ankle injury.

Dorian Finney-Smith

HOU Forward #2
Amen Thompson, Kevin Durant, Tari Eason, Dorian Finney-Smith and Jabari Smith Jr. will start Friday’s game against the Pelicans.

The Rockets won’t have Alperen Şengün for Friday’s game, as he sits with a back injury. However, instead of replacing him with a center, the Rockets are going small, with Finney-Smith moving into the starting lineup. Clint Capela may pick up a few more minutes off the bench, but not starting eliminates what little streaming value he had.

Victor Wembanyama

SAS Forward-Center #1
Victor Wembanyama (ankle) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Hornets.

Wembanyama did not play in Thursday’s loss to the Nuggets, prompting Luke Kornet to move into the starting lineup. Kornet did not offer much production in that role, leading the Spurs to go without a true center for extended periods.

Coby White

CHA Guard #3

Coby White (calf) is probable for Saturday’s game against the Spurs.

White is on the injury report for Saturday’s game, but the probable tag suggests that he is on track to play. If so, he’ll continue to serve as the first guard off the bench, which has limited his fantasy value in Charlotte.

Tidjane Salaün

CHA Forward #31
Tidjane Salaün (calf) and Liam McNeeley (ankle) are out for Saturday’s game against the Spurs.

Salaün and McNeeley’s continued absences do not affect fantasy basketball, as neither has been a consistent member of the Hornets’ rotation when healthy. Both should only be rostered in dynasty leagues.

Taylor Hendricks

MEM Forward #22
Cam Spencer, Ty Jerome, Cedric Coward, Taylor Hendricks and Olivier-Maxence Prosper will start Friday’s game against the Pistons.

The only holdover from the lineup that started Thursday’s loss to the Mavericks is Prosper. Jerome, Spencer and Coward are back after not playing against Dallas, while Hendricks shifts from the bench to the starting lineup since GG Jackson is out.
