J. Green - SF

BOS

Javonte Green (right knee surgery) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Heat.

Whether Green is cleared to play or not it won't have an impact fantasy-wise, as he was out of the Celtics rotation when healthy.

T. Satoransky - PG

CHI

Tomas Satoransky and Chandler Hutchison both practiced on Wednesday, and are on track to return Friday against the Hornets.

This is a big step forward for Satoransky and Hutchison, who are both recovering from COVID-19 and haven't played since December 29th. Billy Donovan said both are on track to return to play in the Bulls' next game on Friday against the Hornets, though it's unclear if either will be on a minutes-restriction.

P. Washington - PF

CHA

P.J. Washington will play on Friday against the Bulls despite tweaking his ankle in practice on Tuesday.

Washington ranks just inside the top-100 players in 9-cat leagues and is having a strong season for the Hornets. He's averaging 12.9 points, 1.2 3-pointers, 7.1 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.4 blocks, and 0.9 steals per game.

T. Davis - SG

TOR

Terence Davis is probable to play through a right hip contusion on Wednesday against the Heat.

Davis is a deep rotation contributor for the Raptors, averaging 7.0 points, 1.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists, and 1.1 made 3-pointers in 12.1 minutes per game. He's not a top fantasy player and can be left on the waiver wire.

HOU

Sterling Brown (leg) is available to play on Wednesday against the Suns.

Brown's missed the last two games with the injury, but he'll return to a much different Rockets team. His spot in the rotation is a lot less clear with Victor Oladipo playing the same position.

J. Tatum - PF

BOS

Brad Stevens says Jayson Tatum will be back on the court practicing in Boston on Wednesday, and there's a 50/50 chance he'll play on Friday against the Sixers.

Tatum hasn't played since January 8th after testing positive for COVID-19, and he's not in Philadelphia on Wednesday, where the Celtics are playing against the Sixers. Though Tatum's been out for nearly two weeks, that's only meant missing three games due to another three being postponed. If Tatum returns on Friday, it's unclear if he'll be on a minutes-restriction, but he'll likely cut into Semi Ojeleye and Grant Williams' playing time.

S. Curry - SG

Seth Curry won't play on Wednesday after being cleared from health and safety protocol due to reconditioning.

Curry was cleared after testing positive for COVID-19 and wasn't originally listed on the injury report, leading us to believe he'd play, but that's changed. The team wants to condition him so he's game-ready again after not playing for two weeks. For now, the red-hot Shake Milton has the 2-guard spot to himself. It'll be interesting to see what happens when Curry returns.

E. Fournier - SG

ORL

Evan Fournier (back spasms) will play on Wednesday against the Timberwolves for the first time since December 31st.

The Magic, who are going through a six-game losing streak, need Fournier back in the lineup, especially after losing Markelle Fultz for the season. His return likely means either Dwayne Bacon or James Ennis will return to the bench.

Z. Williamson - PF

NOP

Zion Williamson is the first Pelicans player, and the youngest player in NBA history to record back-to-back games with 30 or more points on 70% shooting or better.

It's all been shooting inside the paint, but that doesn't mean what Williamson's doing isn't impressive. In his last two games, he's made 27-of-34 shots from the field (79.4%) and scored 63 points. Williamson has a long way to go to develop into a franchise cornerstone, especially on the defensive end. But at 20 years old, his talent is evident. For fantasy purposes, Williamson ranks No. 96 in 9-cat leagues because of his poor shooting from the free-throw line and from distance. He isn't an incredible play-maker yet, either.

E. Bledsoe - SG

NOP

Eric Bledsoe shot 3-of-9 from the field in Tuesday’s loss to the Jazz, posting a line of nine points, four rebounds, two assists and two 3-pointers in 24 minutes.

Bledsoe remained in the starting lineup Tuesday night, with Nickeil Alexander-Walker moving to the bench in order to free up a spot for Lonzo Ball. Neither Ball nor Bledsoe had good nights, but at least the latter was able to knock down a couple 3-pointers. Bledsoe, who had a Yahoo ADP of 78, still sits outside of the top-100 in both 8- and 9-cat formats. He’s worth hanging onto for the time being due to his being a starter, but Alexander-Walker has outplayed Bledsoe. It wouldn’t be all that surprising if Stan Van Gundy made a change to his starting five at some point.

N. Alexander-Walker - SG

NOP

Nickeil Alexander-Walker played 31 minutes off the bench in Tuesday’s loss to the Jazz, finishing with nine points (4-of-13 FGs), five rebounds, two assists, two steals, one block and one 3-pointer.

With Lonzo Ball back in the starting lineup following his return from knee tendinitis, Alexander-Walker returned to the second unit. But he still surpassed the 30-minute mark, which is good news when it comes to his fantasy value in the short-term. It’s worth noting that Ball was on a minutes restriction, which meant that Alexander-Walker wasn’t going to lose much in the way of playing time Tuesday night. Rostered in 22% of Yahoo leagues, Alexander-Walker has provided sixth-round value in both 8- and 9-cat formats over the last week. He stands to lose some minutes as Ball is cleared to play more, but NAW may be in the rotation to stay.

L. Ball - PG

NOP

Lonzo Ball played 23 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Jazz, finishing with seven points (3-of-10 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), one rebound, four assists, three steals and one blocked shot.

Ball, who was on an unspecified minutes restriction, played in 5-to-6 minute stretches Tuesday night. Before the game, coach Stan Van Gundy said that his fourth quarter minutes would be based in part on how Ball was feeling. He didn’t appear to show any ill effects, which is good news for the point guard moving forward. New Orleans will play Utah again on Thursday, so we’ll have to wait and see if Ball’s limit is increased. He shot 0-of-6 from three Tuesday, a step back for a player who entered the game making just over two per game.
