M. Conley - PG

UTA

Mike Conley has been forced into quarantine after having close contact with a family member who tested positive for COVID-19.

Conley made it clear that he has not yet tested positive for the coronavirus, but as part of the COVID-19 protocols, he will now need to quarantine and post seven consecutive negative tests before he's cleared to return (which will come on Monday). He's going to miss some of training camp, but he should be ready for the start of the 2020-21 season.

C. Anthony - PG

ORL

Cole Anthony only hit 2-of-12 shots on Monday vs. the Knicks, finishing with six points, five rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and two triples in 28 minutes.

Anthony hasn’t been a must-start player by any means since Markelle Fultz (knee) went down, coming into Monday’s game with 13.2 points, 3.6 dimes, 3.2 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.0 triples on 36% from the field and 78% from the line. Coach Steve Clifford said Evan Fournier (back) will return any day now, so that will take some usage away from Anthony as well. He's a low-end streamer at best.

A. Gordon - PF

ORL

Aaron Gordon pulled down a career-high 17 rebounds vs. the Knicks on Monday, scoring 18 points (6-of-18 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs) with nine assists, two blocks and two triples in 36 minutes.

The Magic continue to use Gordon as a point forward, giving his counting stats a big boost. He came into Monday averaging 6.5 more touches per game compared to last season and 5.0 more passes per game, but it may not go up too much higher with Evan Fournier (back) due back any day now. His overall upside continues to be limited by poor free throw shooting (60%) and a lack of steals (0.9) and blocks (0.6), so you’ll need to punt one or two categories to optimize him.

N. Vucevic - C

ORL

Nikola Vucevic had another strong showing vs. the Knicks on Monday in a losing effort, scoring 24 points (10-of-16 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs) with 14 rebounds, two blocks and two triples in 36 minutes.

The No. 3 ranked player in 9-cat leagues entering Monday did it again, racking up his 10th double-double of the season and his eighth game with at least 20 points and 10 rebounds. The Magic fall to 6-8 with this loss, yet they are still in a tie for eighth place in the East. As long as the Magic are even remotely competitive, Vucevic's fantasy value will be safe. The good news is that Evan Fournier (back) is due back soon.

R. Barrett - SG

NYK

RJ Barrett had one of his best games of the season in a 91-84 win over the Magic, scoring 22 points on 9-of-14 from the field.

He also hit a perfect 4-of-4 from the line, adding 10 rebounds, four assists and one block for his third double-double of the season. Barrett had six of his points in the final six minutes, helping the Knicks win their second straight and improving his team 7-8 on the season. Sure he has his flaws on the stat sheet, but Barrett looks night and day compared to last season and will continue to be an excellent source of points, rebounds and dimes. Julius Randle notched 21 points with 17 rebounds, one assist and two 3-pointers, but only hit 5-of-19 from the field and 9-of-13 from the line.

I. Quickley - PG

NYK

Immanuel Quickley only played 15 minutes vs. the Magic on Monday, but made the most of them with 11 points (4-of-10 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), two assists, one rebound, one triple and zero turnovers.

A lot of fantasy managers are patently waiting for coach Tom Thibodeau to hand over the keys to Quickley, but he's been stubborn so far. Elfrid Payton played 33 minutes this afternoon and closed this game out, but this was his first good game in a while. As for Quickley, we're still holding on in the hopes for a bigger role because he's too good not to -- he was averaging 19.7 points, 5.0 dimes, 2.3 rebounds, 1.0 steals, 0.7 blocks and 2.7 triples in his previous three games.

M. Robinson - C

NYK

Mitchell Robinson (sore right knee) hit just 2-of-6 foul shots on Monday vs. Orlando, scoring six points (2-of-5 FGs) with 10 rebounds, one steal and one block in 34 minutes.

He's had some struggles against some of the bigger centers this season, with Andre Drummond toasting him a couple games ago and Nikola Vucevic scoring 24 points with 12 rebounds in this one. However, coach Tom Thibodeau is giving him a long leash to play through his mistakes so that he can develop properly, something we wish the previous coaching staff had done. Robinson has been flirting with top-40 value in 9-cat, but has really struggled from the line. He's now a combined 11-of-25 (44%) on the season, but the good news is that it's pretty low volume.

D. Cousins - C

HOU

DeMarcus Cousins (right ankle soreness) has been cleared to play vs. the Bulls on Monday.

The Rockets have only given Cousins a handful of minutes alongside Christian Wood thus far, limiting his per-minute upside in a big way. With the Rockets a little shorthanded hopefully they are a little more open to it going forward.

E. Gordon - SG

HOU

Eric Gordon (leg) has been cleared to play on Monday vs. the Bulls.

Gordon returns after two games on the shelf. He was playing limited minutes before the absence and clearly wasn't himself, but suddenly offers plenty of upside this evening with John Wall (knee) still on the mend. It's unclear if he will have restrictions.

T. Satoransky - PG

CHI

Tomas Satoransky (COVID-19) will not play on Monday vs. the Rockets.

Satoransky recently joined Chandler Hutchison for individual workouts at the Advocate Center, so he'll be back any day now. He's likely to be eased back into things after so much time on the shelf, though. He's still worth a look in deeper leagues if you're targeting assists.

O. Porter - SF

CHI

Otto Porter (back) will not play on Monday vs. Houston.

This is the second game of a back-to-back, but it's worth noting that the Bulls are now calling his injury a lower back strain as opposed to back spasms. Hopefully the Bulls are just being cautious after he returned for 23 minutes on Sunday. Look for Patrick Williams and Thaddeus Young to pick up the slack for Chicago.

K. Irving - PG

Kyrie Irving (conditioning) will not play on Monday vs. the Bucks.

ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting that Kyrie "continues to ramp up his conditioning." Apparently dancing at a birthday party does not count. Irving's next chance to play will be on Wendesday vs. the Cavaliers but we're not holding our breath.

C. McCollum - SG

POR

C.J. McCollum (left foot sprain) will be re-evaluated in one week according to coach Terry Stotts.

When asked previously, Stotts did not provide a timetable. This update rules C.J. out for the next four games at a minimum, and there's no guarantee he's cleared at the one-week mark. In the meantime, Rodney Hood will get the first shot as the fill-in starter and Gary Trent Jr. should be able to pick up some steam as a quality source of 3-pointers.
