Dillon Brooks (hip) available and will start Thursday
Dillon Brooks (hip) will be available and start Thursday against the Denver Nuggets. Brooks should see a decent chunk of run and play a larger role than normal with Morant still out. He is priced up a bit too high on DK to be considered heavily in DFS contests at this time however.

Carmelo Anthony (illness) out Thursday
Carmelo Anthony (illness) has been ruled out Thursday against the Golden State Warriors. The Lakers have been eliminated from the playoffs and there is no reason for any of their veterans to see big minutes tonight. Anthony will be rested giving THT, Monk, Reaves, and other younger Lakers the chance to play a bigger role tonight. THT and Monk seem like the best options in DFS contests tonight as long as they are a part of the starting lineup.
As reported by: Jovan Buha Jarrett Culver (knee) out Thursday
Jarrett Culver (knee) has been ruled out Thursday. Culver was not expected to be part of the rotation so his absence should have no DFS ramifications.

Brandon Ingram (hamstring) out on Thursday. With Ingram out, we should see Devonte Graham in the starting lineup, which is a boost for him. It’s also a potential boost for Jose Alvarado if he’s going to run the second unit.
