. Nene - C

ATL

Nene (hip) is listed as out for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.

The 37-year-old has been away from the team all season after he aggravated a chronic hip adductor injury shortly before the Rockets convened for training camp. With Houston offering few updates on Nene's rehab thus far, he's looking unlikely to make his 2019-20 debut until after the All-Star break.

Blake Griffin isn't listed on the injury report for Monday's game against the Sixers.

Griffin sat out of Saturday's game (a back-to-back) with the injury, but it looks like he'll return. He's ranked the No. 148 player in 9-cat leagues, and should be able to play his normal minutes as a late-round value contributor for fantasy managers.

W. Carter - C

CHI

Wendell Carter Jr. is doubtful to play on Monday against the Celtics due to a thigh contusion.

Carter Jr. sat out with the injury on Saturday as the Bulls lost to the Lakers. Daniel Gafford started at the center spot, but only logged four points, one rebound, and one turnover in 18 minutes. Thaddeus Young scored just six points with four rebounds, two assists, and three steals in 23 minutes. Neither is a must-play if WCJ sits.

D'Angelo Russell is questionable to play on Monday against the Warriors due to a quad contusion.

Russell sat out of Saturday's game due to a pre-planned rest, but now he's popping up on the injury report with a right quad contusion. Without Russell or Towns over the weekend, Minnesota stopped its four-game losing streak against the Pelicans with Ricky Rubio starting. He scored nine points with seven assists, seven rebounds, one steal, and four turnovers. Jordan McLaughlin also played 20 minutes off the bench and scored 11 points with four assists and a steal.

A. Rivers - SG

NYK

Austin Rivers (Achilles) is available to play on Sunday night against the Blazers.

Rivers should slot back into the rotation with Reggie Bullock (neck) ruled out. He hasn't played since January 18th and is coming off back-to-back games without a made shot from the field. With Alec Burks back in the fold, Rivers' fantasy value will drop further.

Reggie Bullock (neck) will not play on Sunday vs. the Trail Blazers.

He was being listed as doubtful, and now we have official confirmation that he'll be out. Austin Rivers (Achilles) is back tonight, so he'll help fill the wing minutes along with Alec Burks.

F. Ntilikina - PG

NYK

Frank Ntilikina (knee) and Austin Rivers (Achilles) will be available to play on Sunday vs. Portland.

Ntilikina hasn't played since Dec. 29, so he might not see many minutes tonight, but he could cut into Immanuel Quickley's playing time. Rivers will be returning from a two-game absence and it'll be interesting to see if he affects Alec Burks.

O. Okongwu - C

ATL

Onyeka Okongwu will start Sunday's game alongside Rajon Rondo, Kevin Huerter, De'Andre Hunter and John Collins.

The rookie gets the nod with Clint Capela sidelined by a sore hand, while Rondo fills in at point guard with Trae Young out due to back spasms. There's a lot of streaming and DFS opportunity for Atlanta tonight, albeit vs. one of the league's best defenses on the road in Milwaukee.

M. Bagley - PF

SAC

Marvin Bagley said his sore left wrist is "feeling better."

The Kings' game vs. Memphis on Sunday was postponed, giving Bagley extra time to rest his wrist. He initially hurt it earlier in the season and said it recently "flared up," though it hasn't cost him any games. He's showing some real-world defensive improvement lately, and is quietly chipping in some blocks to bolster his fantasy value. He's even collected a pair of double-doubles in the past week, so patient fantasy managers are starting to see some returns on their draft-day investment.

C. Capela - C

ATL

Clint Capela (sore right hand) will not suit up for Sunday's game against the Bucks.

His hand must be sore from swatting all those shots on Friday. The Hawks next two games will come as a back-to-back set, so it's possible Capela will need to skip Tuesday's matchup with the Clippers as well, but we wouldn't anticipate a prolonged absence here. John Collins will get a major boost with Capela off the floor, and there will be more minutes available for guys like Danilo Gallinari, Bruno Fernando and Nathan Knight.

T. Young - PG

ATL

Trae Young (back) and Clint Capela (hand) have both been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with the Bucks.

This will be the first missed game of the season for Trae, but considering it's just a back issue and how rarely he misses games, we'd expect to see him back in action on Tuesday vs. the Clippers. Brandon Goodwin could be headed for a spot-start tonight, and there will be more minutes available for Rajon Rondo while guys like John Collins, Danilo Gallinari, De'Andre Hunter, Kevin Huerter and Cam Reddish figure to see a sizeable uptick in usage.

G. Clark - SF

ORL

Gary Clark will move into the starting lineup for Sunday's game vs. the Hornets, with Aaron Gordon (back) unavailable.

Clark has earned two starts so far this season, but he hasn't done much when given the increased opportunity with measly averages of 1.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and not much else on 14.3% shooting, so we don't think he'd be a great streamer today. Joining him in the starting unit will be Cole Anthony, Evan Fournier, James Ennis and Nikola Vucevic.

K. Leonard - SF

LAC

Kawhi Leonard's hot shooting continued Sunday with 34 points on 14-of-21 shooting, four 3-pointers, nine boards, eight assists and zero turnovers in a win vs. the Thunder.

Leonard and Paul George have been uber-efficient this season, with both guys on pace for 50/40/90 lines (Kawhi got there with tonight's effort). That's the primary reason the Clippers are rolling with seven straight wins, outscoring opponents by an average of 18.6 points during that span. Predictably, Leonard dismissed the importance of the 50/40/90 accomplishment. "I'm just knocking down shots," he said. "As long as we win, I'm happy. It's not about my percentage." It's at least partly about percentages for fantasy managers, of course, who can also be described as "happy" about his elite production.
