Luke

Kornet

Kornet is good to go after missing Thursday’s win over the Jazz. His return means that the Spurs won’t have to go small when Victor Wembanyama rests. Kornet’s fantasy ceiling isn’t great, but he is worth rostering in deep leagues.

Kornet did not play in Thursday’s win over the Jazz. The Spurs went small for most of the minutes Victor Wembanyama wasn’t on the floor; expect a similar approach if Kornet can’t play against New Orleans.

Sochan is good to go after initially being listed as questionable. While he has not affected fantasy basketball this season, there may be a few more minutes available since Luke Kornet (adductor) is out.

Kornet has been battling left adductor tightness but has continued to play around 20 minutes a game. This will be his first missed game since December 5th. Bismack Biyombo could move into the rotation, but the Spurs may be able to get by with going small and playing Harrison Barnes or Keldon Johnson more minutes.

Kornet is dealing with left adductor tightness, and his absence could result in Bismack Biyombo moving into the rotation. However, the Spurs could also go small when Victor Wembanyama is off the court, so there’s no need to roster Biyombo in fantasy leagues.

Wembanyama was back in the starting lineup on Sunday, but the minutes (27) were still somewhat limited. Wembanyama landed on Rudy Gobert’s foot after attempting a three-pointer during the third quarter, tweaking his left ankle. That didn’t affect his availability for the rest of the game as he remained on the floor, but it could land Wemby on the injury report ahead of Tuesday’s game against the Thunder. Luke Kornet (six points, 12 rebounds, one steal and one block) played 23 minutes off the bench.

Having come off the bench in his first few games back from a knee injury, Wembanyama is in the starting lineup for Sunday’s game. Luke Kornet heads to the bench, which lowers his fantasy ceiling. That’s the lone change to the lineup that began Saturday’s win over the Celtics.

Wembanyama will be available for both games of the Spurs’ weekend back-to-back. While his playing time may be limited, resulting in Luke Kornet getting another start, the 7-foot-4 center doesn’t need much time to offer elite fantasy value.

Wembanyama is listed as questionable with a bone bruise on his left knee. If he’s ruled out, Luke Kornet could move into the starting lineup as his replacement.

Wemby is dealing with a left knee bone bruise and is in danger of sitting out against Los Angeles. If he’s sidelined, Luke Kornet could see a bump in playing time and remain the Spurs’ starting center.
