J. Sullinger - PF

PHX

Raptors sent Jared Sullinger to the D-League.

After not making his season debut until January 18th, Sullinger is still in the process of getting back up to NBA speed and stamina. He has yet to play more than 17 minutes in any of his five games, and will now head to the D-League for likely just one game to get some additional court time.

D. Valentine - SF

CHI

Denzel Valentine has been assigned to the D-League.

Valentine has seen his playing time oscillate for most of the season. He played 24 minutes on January 20th against Atlanta, but hasn't seen any action in Chicago's last 4 games. It could be a temporary move just to get Valentine some action in the D-League. Don't be surprised if he's brought back up in a week or two.

D. Jackson - PG

LAL

Demetrius Jackson has been reassigned to the D-League.

Jackson, who was selected in the second round out of Notre Dame, has been bouncing between the D-League and the Celtics, and it appears as though he's on his way back to the Maine Red Claws of the D-League. Jackson had been dealing with an illness while with the Celtics and did not appear in a game with the team since he was recalled. He's played in just four NBA games this season and will get some much needed playing time in Maine.

Okaro White has signed a second 10-day contract with the Heat.

White has played well since joining the Heat. He set new career highs in minutes (27), points (10), and rebounds (7) last game in a win over the Nets. He is not worth adding yet, but fantasy owners should keep an eye on him and see if he continues to produce.

Nets have recalled Chris McCullough from the D-League.

McCullough Has been up and down this season between the Nets and the D-League. He will not see enough minutes to make any kind of a real impact on the fantasy world and can be left on the waivers, barring a few injuries in Brooklyn.

Joel Bolomboy has been reassigned to the D-League.

Bolomboy has appeared in just nine games for the Jazz this season despite being on the roster for quite some time due to all of the injuries the team has suffered. He should keep his bags packed, however, because he's bound to get the call back to the team sooner rather than later.

P. Jackson - PG

DAL

Pierre Jackson has signed a second 10-day contract with the Dallas Mavericks.

Jackson joined the Mavericks earlier this season and after averaging just three points and 1.8 assists in 7.0 minutes per game through four games, they let him go. Dallas gave him another shot 10 days ago and he's stepped up his game and earned another few games. He does not have much fantasy value when the Mavericks backcourt is healthy.

D. Wright - SG

DAL

Delon Wright was recalled from the D-League.

Wright's only logged 5 minutes of action in 12 January games with the Raptors so he doesn't have much fantasy value. The timing for his call up gives Toronto some needed depth at PG as Kyle Lowry stayed in the game tonight against San Antonio despite suffering an injury in the final minutes. Wright likely won't see much game time unless there are multiple, serious injuries.

M. Williams - PG

DEN

The Denver Nuggets have claimed Mo Williams off waivers.

This is a peculiar move seeing how Denver already has a pretty big logjam at the guard position. Williams figures to have no real role with the Nuggets, similar to long-time veteran Mike Miller already has with the team. Williams slots in behind Mudiay, Nelson and Murray on the depth chart. With all that being said, it's expected that Denver will actually waive Williams for salary cap purposes.

S. Labissiere - PF

ATL

Lloyd Pierce said that Skal Labissiere "looked really good" at Wednesday's practice and that he's "been healthy a long time."

Labissiere went down with a knee injury in December and never made it back to the court, but he's now had plenty of time to recover and was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. He'll be good to go for the 2020-21 season, but it'll be tough for him to find meaningful minutes while John Collins and Clint Capela are healthy.

C. Capela - C

ATL

Clint Capela (foot) does not have any restrictions at Atlanta's minicamp.

Capela went through some halfcourt stuff at Wednesday's light practice, and Lloyd Pierce said that he's been working out "for a long time" now and he looked to be in great shape. It's safe to say that Capela is over the plantar fasciitis issue, so he'll be ready to hit the 2020-21 season running after having ample time off. Plantar fasciitis doesn't tend to be a re-occurring issue once it's cured, and Capela's been relatively healthy over his career, so we're not worried about drafting him.

B. Hield - SG

SAC

Monte McNair singled out Buddy Hield for praise on Wednesday, making it clear that Hield is an important piece to McNair's vision.

Hield had a rocky year in his first season with Luke Walton, and while he had some more success running with the second unit over the second half, he didn't seem all that content operating in a reserve role. McNair said that Hield is an "elite shooter" and his spacing is important for the team, so maybe he'll convince Walton to bring him back into the first unit. McNair also made it clear that he wants Sacramento to up the pace next year, which is something Walton talked about last season but was never able to accomplish.

B. Bogdanovic - SG

SAC

Kings' new GM, Monte McNair, made it a point during Wednesday's presser to say that he values financial flexibility.

Sacramento currently has about $97 million in guaranteed salaries for next season, so they won't have a ton of cap room during free agency, which could make re-signing Bogdan Bogdanovic a little complicated. They do own his Bird Rights, so they'll be able to go over the cap to sign him to a contract, but it's tough to justify dipping into the luxury tax for a team that has yet to make the playoffs. Former GM, Vlade Divac, was adamant about retaining Bogdanovic, but McNair might not be too attached.

D. Bender - PF

Dragan Bender has signed a deal with Maccabi Tel Aviv.

It's reportedly a 3-month deal with an option to extend it for the full season. This means it's a possibility that an NBA team scoops him up at some point next season. The former No. 4 pick back in 2016, Bender had unsuccessful stints with the Suns and Bucks but did have some decent moments with the Warriors, averaging 9.0 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.2 triples in 21.7 minutes.
