Rotoworld

Gabe Vincent

LAL Point Guard #7

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Gabe Vincent (knee) is available for Saturday’s game against the Knicks.

Vincent is available after missing three games with a sore left knee. His return means fewer minutes for Shake Milton, but neither player should be rostered in most fantasy leagues. Leave Vincent on the waiver wire.

Maxi Kleber

LAL Forward #14

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Maxi Kleber (back) is out for Friday’s game against the Pacers.

Kleber will miss a second straight game due to a lumbar sprain. With Deandre Ayton (knee) also out, Jarred Vanderbilt will likely slot in as the backup center. He is not worth the streaming risk in most leagues.

Deandre Ayton

LAL Center #5
Deandre Ayton (knee) is out for Friday’s game against the Pacers.

Ayton left Thursday’s game in the first half after playing five minutes and didn’t return due to a knee injury. He’ll miss Friday’s matchup against the Pacers with the same injury. With Ayton sidelined, Jaxson Hayes should start and handle the center minutes with Maxi Kleber (back) also ruled out.

LeBron James

LAL Forward #23
LeBron James (elbow, foot) is out for Friday’s game against the Pacers.

Already dealing with left foot arthritis, James fell hard on his left elbow during Thursday’s loss to the Nuggets. He’ll sit out Friday’s game, likely resulting in Jake LaRavia moving into the starting five. If so, that raises LaRavia’s short-term fantasy ceiling.

Jarrett Allen

CLE Center #31

According to Cavaliers reporter Chris Fedor, Jarrett Allen (ankle) missed Friday’s practice.

Allen exited Tuesday’s win over Detroit early, and the injury could cost him a game. Fortunately, the Cavaliers don’t play again until Sunday, so fantasy managers should keep an eye on Allen’s practice availability.

Donovan Mitchell

CLE Guard #45
Donovan Mitchell (groin) and Dean Wade (ankle) practiced on Friday, according to Cavaliers reporter Chris Fedor.

Max Strus (foot) also participated. The practice is good news for fantasy managers rostering Mitchell and potentially streaming Wade. All three have a chance to take the court for Sunday’s matchup with the Celtics.

Aaron Gordon

DEN Forward #32
Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Cameron Johnson (ankle) are questionable for Friday’s matchup with the Knicks.

Both Gordon and Johnson have a chance to return to Denver’s lineup, but Gordon’s minutes could be managed after such a lengthy absence. Julian Strawther, Tim Hardaway Jr., and Bruce Brown could all see reductions in playing time if Gordon and Johnson are available.

Julian Champagnie

SAS Forward #30
Julian Champagnie (knee) is questionable for Friday’s matchup with the Clippers.

Champagnie is dealing with right knee soreness that may keep him out for the second leg of San Antonio’s back-to-back set. If Champagnie is ultimately ruled out, Devin Vassell and Keldon Johnson could pick up some extra minutes.

Harrison Barnes

SAS Forward #40
Harrison Barnes (ankle) is out for Friday’s matchup with the Clippers.

Barnes will surprisingly miss a third straight game which should lead to additional playing time for Carter Bryant, but San Antonio’s deep rotation limits Bryant’s fantasy ceiling.

Daniel Gafford

DAL Forward-Center #21
Daniel Gafford (ankle) and Marvin Bagley III (neck) are doubtful for Friday’s matchup with the Celtics.

Bagley III is still working his way back from a neck strain, and he’s likely to miss a fifth straight contest. Gafford will get the night off for the second leg of Dallas’ back-to-back set, which isn’t too surprising. With both bigs expected to miss this one, expect Dwight Powell and P.J. Washington to see additional run.

Dejounte Murray

NOP Guard #5
Dejounte Murray (Achilles) is off the injury report for Friday’s matchup with the Suns.

Murray sat out Thursday for the first leg of the Pelicans’ back-to-back set, but he’ll be back in action against Phoenix and should handle a normal workload. Jeremiah Fears’ fantasy appeal takes a hit as a result of Murray’s availability.
