Anthony Edwards

MIN Guard #5

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Anthony Edwards is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Raptors due to right foot injury maintenance.

Edwards has been battling some soreness and pain in his foot throughout the season, but he hasn’t missed a game since January 26th. With an off-day tomorrow, it would be a bit of a surprise for Edwards to miss this one. If he does, Ayo Dosunmu would likely move into a starting role.
Pascal Siakam

IND Forward #43

Pascal Siakam (wrist) finished Wednesday’s loss to the Clippers with 29 points (8-of-14 FGs, 12-of-14 FTs), five rebounds, one assist and one three-pointer.

After missing three games with a sprained wrist, Siakam played 30 minutes against the Clippers. And he was highly effective, shooting excellent percentages from the field and the foul line. There may not have been any defensive stats to speak of, but most fantasy managers will be happy that Siakam was allowed to play 30 minutes in a blowout defeat. Indiana plays two more games in Week 19, and the good news for fantasy managers is that they don’t have a back-to-back. Hopefully, that means Siakam will be available for both.
Yanic Konan-Niederhäuser

LAC Center #14

Yanic Konan-Niederhäuser (foot) will not travel with the Clippers for their two-game road trip to end the week.

Konan-Niederhäuser (foot) injured his right foot during the first half of Wednesday’s win over the Pacers. More will be learned about the severity of the injury on Thursday, and the rookie has already been ruled out for games in San Antonio (Friday) and Memphis (Saturday). If Konan-Niederhäuser has to miss time, Isaiah Jackson would slide into the backup center role. He played 18 minutes against the Pacers, finishing with 10 points, four rebounds, two assists and three blocked shots.
Kawhi Leonard

LAC Forward #2

Kawhi Leonard tallied 29 points (10-of-18 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), eight rebounds, two assists, one steal and three three-pointers in Wednesday’s win over the Pacers.

Leonard only played 30 minutes on Wednesday, with the blowout ending his night after just three quarters. His consistent excellence has made him one of the best players in fantasy basketball this season, with the Clippers’ star last failing to score at least 20 points in a game on November 20. The Clippers play two more games in Week 19, but it’s a back-to-back. With the Spurs being on the slate for Friday and the Grizzlies the following night, it would be unsurprising if Leonard sits out the latter for injury management reasons.
Yanic Konan-Niederhäuser

LAC Center #14

Yanic Konan-Niederhäuser (foot) will not return to Wednesday’s game against the Pacers.

Konan-Niederhäuser injured his right foot when he landed awkwardly after attempting to block an Aaron Nesmith layup attempt during the first half of Wednesday’s game. While the rookie center required assistance getting back to the locker room, he was able to put some weight on his right foot. Isaiah Jackson has entered the rotation and will likely slide into the backup center role if Konan-Niederhäuser misses time.
Jrue Holiday

POR Guard #5

Jrue Holiday accounted for 35 points (13-of-19 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), five rebounds, 11 assists, one steal and eight three-pointers in Wednesday’s win over the Grizzlies.

Holiday and Jerami Grant put on a show in Memphis, combining for 65 points on 24-of-38 shooting from the field. The former finished with a season-high point total while also reaching double figures in assists for the fifth time. Since the All-Star break, Holiday has been close to a top-25 player in eight-cat formats, according to Basketball Monster. The Trail Blazers play twice more in Week 19, starting with the Rockets on Friday.
Jarace Walker

IND Forward #5

Andrew Nembhard, Aaron Nesmith, Jabari Walker, Pascal Siakam and Jay Huff will start Wednesday’s game against the Clippers.

Nembhard, Nesmith and Siakam are all available after missing time due to injury. Their returns mean that Kam Jones, Ben Sheppard and Obi Toppin will come off the bench. Walker remaining with the starters ensures his fantasy value doesn’t take a significant hit.
Tyrese Maxey

PHI Guard #0

Tyrese Maxey finished Wednesday’s win over the Jazz with 25 points (8-of-22 FGs, 7-of-7 FTs), two rebounds, six assists, one steal, three blocks and two three-pointers.

After putting up an inefficient 33 points in Tuesday’s blowout loss to the Spurs, Maxey didn’t have the best night shooting the basketball against the Jazz, either. Given the players who were unavailable for the 76ers, it’s unsurprising that Maxey would struggle because of the attention he’s received defensively. The good news for fantasy managers was that he recorded a complete stat line, including three blocks. The three rejections matched his season-high, which he recorded on two other occasions.
Keyonte George

UTA Guard #3

Keyonte George tallied 30 points (10-of-24 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), four rebounds, two assists, one steal and five three-pointers in Wednesday’s loss to the 76ers.

Two days removed from dropping 36 points in a loss to the Jazz, George put up another 30-piece on Wednesday. The Jazz guard has now scored at least 30 points in 14 games this season, more than double his tally in his first two NBA seasons combined (six). The lone concern for fantasy managers is Utah’s back-to-back, as they visit the Wizards on Thursday. If George sits, look for Isaiah Collier (18 points, five assists, three steals and one blocked shot) to move into the starting lineup.
Derrick White

BOS Guard #9

Derrick White finished Wednesday’s loss to the Hornets with 29 points (9-of-17 FGs, 8-of-8 FTs), two rebounds, three assists, one steal and three three-pointers.

White shot the ball well on Wednesday, making over half of his shot attempts and knocking down all eight of his free throws. However, his efforts weren’t enough to keep the Celtics from getting run off their home court. In the 118-89 defeat, only White and Jaylen Brown reached double figures for the Celtics, who shot 38 percent from the field and 10-of-36 from three. Boston plays twice more in Week 19, starting with the Mavericks on Friday.
