NBA Player News

Reddish has been part of the rotation lately but hasn’t scored in three consecutive contests. Fantasy managers shouldn’t put too much stock in his potential absence on Sunday, as he hasn’t been a productive player.

Curry is available after being listed as probable on the initial injury report. However, the Warriors will be without Draymond Green, who is out due to tightness in his left calf. Kuminga will replace him in the lineup while Looney passes Trayce Jackson-Davis in the rotation.

While Bradley Beal is back in the lineup, the Suns will be without Nurkic (right thigh contusion) for at least one week. He’ll be replaced in the starting five by Ighodaro, who should be streamed until the Suns’ starting center returns. Tyus Jones, Devin Booker, and Kevin Durant complete the starting five.

Huerter practiced on Monday and is officially available for Tuesday’s game. However, with his fall out of the starting lineup before the injury, Red Velvet doesn’t offer much fantasy value. He’ll play rotation minutes behind Malik Monk, which limits Huerter’s value considerably.

Both Kispert and Kyshawn George have suffered left ankle injuries that will keep them sidelined for the second half of their game against the Cavs. Bub Carrington and Johnny Davis should see extra minutes for the rest of this game.

George sprained his ankle when he landed awkwardly after attempting to block a shot at the rim. The rookie did not return, and the Wizards have ruled him out for the rest of the night. With Corey Kispert (ankle) also done for the game, Johnny Davis will play rotation minutes. However, he is not worth adding to fantasy rosters.

Irving, Thompson, and Lively are back after missing Sunday’s win over Portland, prompting three changes to the starting lineup. They’ll replace Jaden Hardy, Quentin Grimes, and Daniel Gafford, with Gafford being the only one likely to retain the fantasy value needed to merit being rostered in standard leagues.

Sochan is available to play for the first time since November 4, adding to the Spurs’ options at the forward positions. How much he’ll play on Tuesday is unknown, but Sochan’s availability will impact Stephon Castle (who’s been starting for him) and Julian Champagnie the most.

Dillingham has missed Minnesota’s last two games, and Wednesday’s contest will make it three. With Mike Conley available, the rookie was unlikely to get the minutes needed to impact fantasy basketball. As for Ingles, he hasn’t appeared in a game since November 17 and was not in the rotation when healthy.

Edey has not appeared in a game since November 17, but his absence has not forced the Grizzlies to alter their rotation. Brandon Clarke has remained the starter, with Santi Aldama and Jay Huff supplying depth off the bench. Memphis plays a Saturday/Sunday road back-to-back against the Celtics and Wizards, and Edey may be available for one of those games.

Initially announced as a starter, Bitadze will not play in Tuesday’s NBA Cup Group A decider. His absence pushes da Silva into the starting lineup, with Wendell Carter Jr. as the starting center. Completing the five are Jalen Suggs, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, and Franz Wagner. Da Silva does not need to be streamed in most fantasy leagues.
