  • Player Notes
    Giannis Antetokounmpo Sun Feb 9 11:10am

    According to NBA insider Chris Haynes, Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo will be sidelined for 2-3 weeks because of a calf strain. The injury will also force him to miss the All-Star game. The 30-year-old has already been sidelined for four games. However, the last revelation from Haynes certainly is even worse news for fantasy managers. Without Antetokounmpo, Bobby Portis will likely remain in the starting lineup at the four. Portis has played well while Antetokounmpo has been out, even more so in the last two games, combining for 49 points, 32 rebounds, four blocks, and two steals, giving him added value from a fantasy standpoint.

    Dennis Schroder Sun Feb 9 11:00am

    Detroit Pistons guard Dennis Schroder (trade pending) is available for Sunday's matchup with the Hornets. The veteran has bounced around the National Basketball Association this season, suiting up for the Nets and Warriors before getting shipped to the Pistons ahead of the deadline. While he could have a rough time finding consistent minutes in Detroit, he should at least overthrow Marcus Sasser for the spot behind Cade Cunningham (ankle). With that said, Schroder should have spells of efficiency moving forward, although he likely won't be a consistent fantasy performer. Unfortunately, his ceiling might decrease significantly if Jaden Ivey (leg) can work his way back from a broken Fibula.

    LaMelo Ball Sun Feb 9 11:00am

    Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Pistons. He had 24 points and 10 assist in Friday's narrow win over the San Antonio Spurs. However, the 23-year-old is now in danger of missing Sunday's contest because of ankle soreness. If Ball isn't available, KJ Simpson, who had 15 points, three assists, and one steal in his only start of the season, is worth streaming. Simpson will also draw interest from DFS managers, even more so if Nick Smith Jr. (back) can't get on the floor.

    Fred VanVleet Sun Feb 9 10:50am

    Houston Rockets guard Fred VanVleet (ankle) isn't available for Sunday's clash with the Toronto Raptors. He injured his right ankle during the February 1 encounter against the Brooklyn Nets. As a result, the 30-year-old has missed the last four games. Without him, Amen Thompson should continue to handle most of the duties at the one spot, giving him a bump in usage and production. Alperen Sengun and Jalen Green should also see more scoring chances without VanVleet on the floor, with Cam Whitmore, coming off a seven-point, four-rebound effort in Saturday's loss to Dallas, remaining more involved from off the bench.

    Giannis Antetokounmpo Sun Feb 9 10:40am

    Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) won't play on Sunday versus the visiting 76ers. He'll now miss his fourth-straight game because of a calf strain. In the meantime, Bobby Portis will presumably remain at the four spot. Portis has surged while Antetokounmpo has been on the shelf, especially in the last two games, combining for 49 points, 32 rebounds, four blocks, and two steals. As such, the 29-year-old has an excellent chance to remain even more productive against a Philadelphia team that could be without Joel Embiid (knee).

    Zion Williamson Sun Feb 9 1:30am

    New Orleans' F Zion Williamson scored 40 points on 16-of-21 shooting in a 118-123 loss to Sacramento on Saturday, Feb. 8.

    Jayson Tatum Sun Feb 9 1:30am

    Celtics' F Jayson Tatum scored 40 points on 13-of-26 shooting in a 131-104 win over New York on Saturday, Feb. 8.

    Austin Reaves Sun Feb 9 1:30am

    Lakers' G Austin Reaves scored 45 points on 14-of-26 shooting in a 124-117 win over the Pacers on Saturday, Feb. 8.

    Dalton Knecht Sat Feb 8 9:30pm

    According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the trade between the Lakers and Hornets involving center Mark Williams and guard Dalton Knecht was rescinded. The deal was contingent on both players passing a physical. While Knecht had a clean bill of health, it was a different story for Williams. Per Charania, the Lakers medical staff discovered "multiple issues" during his exam, none of which were related to his previous back issue. As far as Knecht is concerned, he'll head back to Los Angeles, a team that recently acquired Luka Doncic (calf) from the Mavericks in exchange for Anthony Davis (abdomen). The 23-year-old hasn't been a consistent fantasy option. But he has at least averaged 14.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and shot 39.3% from deep in 12 starts. With that in mind, redraft managers likely won't receive routine production from Knecht moving ahead, although he should have at least a few solid outings before the end of the 2024-25 campaign.

    Mark Williams Sat Feb 8 9:20pm

    According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the trade between the Lakers and Hornets involving center Mark Williams and forward Dalton Knecht was voided. Both teams agreed on the deal ahead of the deadline. However, it was contingent on both players passing a physical. Per Charania, Williams failed his physical, with the Lakers medical staff finding "multiple issues," none of which were related to his pre-existing back injury. It's unknown if Williams is healthy enough to play. But if he is sidelined, Jusuf Nurkic, who was acquired by the Hornets from the Suns, and Moussa Diabate will handle things in the middle.

    Joel Embiid Sat Feb 8 7:30pm

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. The former MVP returned to the 76ers lineup this week, playing in two of three games, but he may sit out Sunday's action due to left knee injury management. Guerschon Yabusele (knee), who is considered probable, will likely start at center again if Embiid can't play. Andre Drummond and Adem Bona provide additional cover at the five position, although they are not productive fantasy performers and should be ignored by managers.

    Josh Hart Sat Feb 8 7:20pm

    New York Knicks guard/forward Josh Hart (knee) is good to go for Saturday's clash against the Boston Celtics. Despite battling knee soreness, Hart has continued to see a full workload and is expected to be heavily involved again on Saturday, as the team has upgraded his status from probable to available. Since the calendar was turned, Hart has averaged 14.1 points, 11.6 rebounds, 6.3 assists, and 1.7 steals.

    Grayson Allen Sat Feb 8 7:20pm

    Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (knee) will come out of the lineup on Saturday against the Denver Nuggets. Following 19 consecutive appearances, Allen sits out the second leg of a back-to-back due to soreness in his left knee. Kevin Durant (ankle) and Bradley Beal (toe) will not play either, leaving Phoenix without three of its four highest scorers on Saturday. Due to the injuries, Royce O'Neale, Ryan Dunn, and Monte Morris should be more heavily involved in the rotation.

    Karl-Anthony Towns Sat Feb 8 7:10pm

    New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) will suit up for Saturday's fascinating battle against the Boston Celtics. Towns was downgraded from probable to questionable a few hours before tip-off, but the team has now confirmed that the five-time All-Star will be in the lineup. After being limited to 12 points by the Celtics on opening night, Towns may have a chip on his shoulder. He is coming off a monster 27-point, 20-rebound effort against the Toronto Raptors.

    Talen Horton-Tucker Sat Feb 8 7:00pm

    Chicago Bulls guard/forward Talen Horton-Tucker (leg) will be in the lineup on Saturday against the Golden State Warriors. He has recovered from a left leg infection, which kept Horton-Tucker off the court for four games. The 24-year-old has averaged only 11.5 minutes of action this season and likely won't make a big impact on Saturday. However, with Zach LaVine now in Sacramento, we may see a bit more of Horton-Tucker for the rest of the way.

    Moses Moody Sat Feb 8 7:00pm

    Golden State Warriors guard/forward Moses Moody (back) has been cleared for action ahead of Saturday's contest against the Chicago Bulls. He is officially available for the game after initially receiving a probable tag on the injury report. Moody has been performing well in recent weeks, but Jimmy Butler's addition is expected to alter his role in the rotation. The same goes for Gui Santos (knee), who returns to the lineup on Saturday after a one-game absence.

    Bradley Beal Sat Feb 8 6:50pm

    Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (toe) will remain on the shelf for a second consecutive game on Saturday against the Denver Nuggets. Beal has recently produced some of his best performances of the season, but a toe injury has taken him out of the lineup. Kevin Durant (ankle) also remains out on Saturday, meaning Devin Booker will continue to have massive usage offensively. He nearly produced a 50-point double-double in Friday's 135-127 overtime win against the Utah Jazz. Ryan Dunn, Royce O'Neale, and Grayson Allen (knee) are also among the players who benefit from the situation. However, Allen may also have to skip Saturday's game due to knee soreness.

    Lonzo Ball Sat Feb 8 6:50pm

    Chicago Bulls point guard Lonzo Ball (illness) will sit out Saturday's clash against the Golden State Warriors. Ball is feeling under the weather, and Chicago has downgraded him from questionable to out. He will be unavailable for a second consecutive game. Josh Giddey, Coby White, and Ayo Dosunmu receive a usage boost with Ball out. New additions Kevin Huerter and Tre Jones are also in a position to benefit from his absence.

    Kevin Durant Sat Feb 8 6:40pm

    Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (ankle) will remain out for a third consecutive game on Saturday against the Denver Nuggets. The veteran star is struggling to shake off a left ankle injury. His next chance to return will be on Tuesday against the Memphis Grizzlies. Royce O'Neale and Grayson Allen (knee) have taken on bigger workloads with Durant on the shelf. Allen is considered a game-time call on Saturday, meaning the Suns' bench may need to play an even larger role in Saturday's contest.

    Desmond Bane Sat Feb 8 6:30pm

    Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Desmond Bane (ankle) will return to action on Saturday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The team has him back in the lineup after a left ankle sprain kept Bane sidelined for two games. Bane upped his scoring numbers to 20.9 points per game last month and also started February well, posting 22 points on 9-for-15 shooting in a 132-119 win over the Milwaukee Bucks last Sunday. With Bane back in the fold, Luke Kennard's fantasy stock takes a hit, as he will likely head back to the bench.
