  • MEM Center #14

    Zach Edey (left ankle sprain) is out for Sunday’s game against the Pacers.
    Edey has been out for nearly two weeks, and there’s hope he’ll be available soon. Sunday will not be the day, with the Grizzlies announcing that he’s out. Brandon Clarke’s role as starting center should remain the same even after Edey returns.
  • FA Center #3

    Indiana has waived Moses Brown, the team announced on Monday.
    Brown signed with the team in mid-November and saw a few minutes off the bench early on, but he never played enough to impact fantasy basketball. He didn’t see the floor at all over their last two games, and now he’ll be looking for a new team.
  • ORL Power Forward #1
    Jonathan Isaac (right hamstring soreness) is questionable for Tuesday’s tilt with Milwaukee.
    Isaac has missed each of Orlando’s last two games, but he’s got a chance to return for a standalone matchup with the Bucks in the NBA Cup Quarterfinals.
  • DAL Power Forward #25
    PJ Washington and Naji Marshall are both questionable for Tuesday’s matchup with the Thunder due to illness.
    With Maxi Kleber and Jaden Hardy already ruled out, Dallas’ rotation may be a bit thin against the Thunder. Olivier-Maxence Prosper could see a bump in playing time if Washington and Marshall are ultimately sidelined.
  • POR Shooting Guard #1
    Anfernee Simons accumulated 14 points (5-of-13 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), one rebound, four assists, one block, and one 3-pointer in 31 minutes in Sunday’s loss to the Lakers.
    Ranked well outside the top 100 in 8- and 9-cat value for the season, Simons has been a 10th-round player in both formats over the past two weeks. His status as a starter is why the Blazers’ point guard remains rostered in 89% of Yahoo leagues. Some managers may be willing to entertain the possibility of buying low on Simons, but that feels like a waste of trade capital with the Blazers in the midst of a rebuild.
  • POR Point Guard #00
    Scoot Henderson (left quad contusion) tallied 13 points (3-of-6 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), two rebounds, one steal, and one 3-pointer in 21 minutes in Sunday’s loss to the Lakers.
    Henderson has appeared on only two of Portland’s last nine games, so the limited workload on Sunday should not be a surprise. For the season, he’s ranked just inside the top 200 in 9-cat formats, which isn’t good enough to merit consideration in standard leagues. Henderson’s current rostered percentage (20%) is unlikely to increase as long as starter Anfernee Simons is healthy.
  • UTA Point Guard #3
    Keyonte George had 25 points (8-of-14 FGs), five rebounds, six assists, four steals and three 3-pointers against the Kings on Sunday.
    George had 25 points, four steals and three 3-pointers, which were all positives. He still turned the ball over four times in 34 minutes and has struggled with efficiency this year. George will continue to start on the 5-18 Jazz and he can score, but he isn’t consistent enough to trust in most leagues.
  • POR Shooting Guard #17
    Shaedon Sharpe played 34 minutes in Sunday’s 107-98 loss to the Lakers, accounting for 19 points (7-of-15 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), seven rebounds, three assists, and two 3-pointers.
    Rostered in 37% of Yahoo leagues, Sharpe is ranked just outside the top 200 in 9-cat formats over the past two weeks. Portland’s lack of shooting guards is likely what keeps Sharpe as highly rostered as he is since he’s essentially guaranteed to play starters’ minutes. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, his elite athleticism has not translated to the defensive end, where Sharpe provides little steals or blocks value.
  • POR Center #2
    Deandre Ayton amassed 14 points (7-of-14 FGs), 19 rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one blocked shot in 35 minutes in Sunday’s 107-98 loss to the Lakers.
    After being benched for most of the second half of Friday’s embarrassing loss to the Jazz, Ayton appeared to be more invested mentally. Anthony Davis may have outplayed him (which is the case for most bigs in the NBA), but Ayton grabbed a season-high 19 rebounds and recorded a double-double. Portland is one of the teams that will play two more games before the conclusion of the extended Week 7 (Yahoo leagues), which will begin with the Suns on Friday.
  • SAC Power Forward #11
    Domantas Sabonis had 19 points (8-of-13 FGs), 12 rebounds, six assists, one steal, one block and two 3-pointers against the Jazz on Sunday.
    Sabonis only played 28 minutes in the blowout victory. He was still just four assists shy of a triple-double and chipped in with one steal, one block and two 3-pointers. It was a pretty good game for the 28-year-old power forward, who continues to provide first round fantasy value.
  • LAL Shooting Guard #12
    Max Christie shot 1-of-6 from the field and 1-of-2 from the foul line in Sunday’s win over Portland, tallying four points, four rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one 3-pointer in 26 minutes.
    On Sunday, the Lakers were without Austin Reaves and LeBron James, with Christie stepping in for the latter. Unfortunately, he did not provide much value, which can also be said for Gabe Vincent (three points, one rebound, three steals, and one 3-pointer in 25 minutes). With the Lakers off until Friday, the few managers who streamed Christie or Vincent can afford to move on.
