E. Kanter - C

POR

Starting for the injured Jusuf Nurkic, Enes Kanter played 29 minutes in Saturday’s win over the Hawks and finished with 12 points (5-of-9 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 15 rebounds, three assists, two steals and five blocked shot.

Wow. What a night for Kanter, who finished one blocked shot shy of his career-high. In fact, this was just the second time that he has rejected at least five shots in a game. There are still some issues on that end of the floor to address, as Clint Capela did whatever he wanted during the first half, but Kanter showed himself to be an effective replacement for Nurkic Saturday night. "I don't know why he has a bad reputation. When he was here two years ago, he was a solid defender for us," Blazers coach Terry Stotts said after the win. "I think some of the criticism about Enes was unwarranted." He's rostered in 59% of Yahoo leagues, and that percentage should increase significantly in the next 24 hours. If Kanter is still available in your league, pick him up.

Luke Kornet won't play on Wednesday against the Pelicans for personal reasons.

Kornet is a deep rotation player, so his absence won't change much for fantasy managers.

Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot (right knee soreness) won't play on Wednesday against the Rockets.

TLC will miss his second straight game with the injury, which should leave more opportunities for Tyler Johnson and Landry Shamet off the bench. Neither are reliable fantasy options, though.

Jeff Green (right shoulder contusion) won't play on Wednesday against the Rockets.

Green will miss the final game before All-Star as expected. DeAndre Jordan and Nicolas Claxton should draw the most minutes with Jordan being a solid DFS target. He scored eight points with 13 rebounds, five assists, and three blocks on Monday.

K. Oubre - SF

GSW

Kelly Oubre Jr. (left wrist sprain) is questionable to play against the Trail Blazers on Wednesday.

This is the first we're hearing about the sprain on an injury report, but it hasn't been surprising to see a few names around the league pop up given the proximity to the All-Star break and the need for players to rest and heal before the second half of the season. Oubre's had a great few weeks and will be difficult to replace if he sits, but Andrew Wiggins, Kent Bazemore, and maybe Juan Toscano-Anderson would try.

L. Doncic - PG

DAL

Luka Doncic (lower back tightness) is doubtful to play against the Thunder on Wednesday.

Doncic is still scheduled to participate in All-Star Weekend festivities so this is likely a bit of load management. If he can't play, his role will be impossible to replace, but Jalen Brunson, Trey Burke, and Tim Hardaway Jr. will try.

D. Sabonis - PF

Domantas Sabonis (sore left ankle) is questionable to play on Wednesday against the Cavaliers.

With the Pacers playing their first game of a back-to-back right before the All-Star break it wouldn't be shocking if they opt to rest Sabonis on one or even both of these nights. If he misses time, Myles Turner could be in for a huge game, and JaKarr Sampson and Goga Bitazde could see additional minutes.

B. Bogdanovic - SG

ATL

Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee avulsion fracture) is not listed on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Magic.

Bogdanovic played 16 minutes in his first game back in two months on Tuesday, scoring five points on 2-of-5 shooting with two rebounds, four assists, and one made 3-pointer. It's unclear if his minutes will uptick, but it's great news to see him playing in his first back-to-back opportunity. He'll have chances to contribute with Cam Reddish still sidelined, but he's probably a risky fantasy play given the uncertainty around his minutes restriction.

C. Reddish - SG

ATL

Cam Reddish (right Achilles soreness) will miss his sixth straight game on Wednesday against the Magic.

This is unsurprising given Wednesday night will be Atlanta's final game before the All-Star break. Hopefully, Reddish can come in healed next week and step out onto the floor. Tony Snell is likely to continue replacing him in the starting lineup unless Bogdan Bogdanovic is ready to play a full game, but Snell's not worth picking up in most leagues.

C. Capela - C

ATL

Clint Capela is questionable to play on Wednesday against the Magic due to right foot pain.

With just one game left until the All-Star break, you have to wonder if Atlanta will play it safe. If Capela does sit, expect a boost in numbers for John Collins, and added time for Onyeka Okongwu, and maybe even Danilo Gallinari.

G. Hayward - SF

Gordon Hayward (right hand contusion) has been upgraded from questionable to probable to play against the Timberwolves on Wednesday.

Hayward has missed the last two games, but it looks like he'll return right before the All-Star break. If he plays, Malik Monk, Cody Martin, and P.J. Washington could all take a step back in the rotation.

D. Rose - PG

NYK

Derrick Rose was sidelined on Tuesday because of an inconclusive test, but he's since been cleared to fly with the team.

Rose's test was inconclusive, but he's registered several negatives tests since. He can now return to the team, and it seems possible that he could play on Thursday against the Pistons. Check-in closer to game time for a decision.

M. Diakite - PF

The Bucks called up Mamadi Diakite from the G League on Wednesday.

Diakite, the former Virginia star, is unlikely to make any type of fantasy impact but it looks like he may have a chance to show he can play before the Bucks hit the All-Star break.
