DFS Alerts
DeMarcus Cousins (illness) listed available Wednesday
After previously being ruled out and then re-upgraded to questionable, Cousins is now officially listed as available on the Nuggets injury report for Wednesday’s matchup against the Golden State Warriors despite battling an illness. However, his availability won’t have too much impact on the rest of the Denver rotation, but with Zeke Nnaji unavailable because of hamstring tightness, he should be expected to see the backup center minutes behind Nikola Jokic in tonight’s contest.

Zeke Nnaji (hamstring) ruled out Wednesday; Monte Morris available
Zeke Nnaji (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday’s game against the Golden State Warriors, while Monte Morris will be available. Morris will likely return to the starting lineup for the Nuggets after missing the past four games and should see his usual run. At this time, he is priced up too much on DK to be worth considering in DFS contests. Nnaji was not expected to play a major role for Denver tonight so his absence is not DFS relevant.

Dennis Schroder (Achilles) will start Wednesday
Dennis Schroder (Achilles) will start Wednesday for the Rockets against the Phoenix Suns. Schroder was considered a game-time decision but will be available and should see a decent amount of run for the Rockets who are without both Kevin Porter Jr. and Christian Wood. Schroder should run point and be one of the primary contributors on offense. He can be considered in DFS contests.

As reported by: Jason Anderson Christian Wood (illness) and Kevin Porter Jr. (illness) ruled out Wednesday
Christian Wood (illness) and Kevin Porter Jr. (illness) have both been ruled out for Wednesday’s game against the Phoenix Suns. WIth both Wood and Porter Jr. out Dennis Schroder (considered a game-time decision) and Alperen Sengun seem to be the most likely candidates to join the starting lineup for the Rockets. Both would need to be considered as value options and should see a good amount of run.

Ja Morant (ankle) will start Wednesday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Morant will make his return to the starting lineup and should see close to his normal run for the Grizzlies. His return will crush the value that could have been provided by Tyus Jones had he been given another start.

Anthony Edwards (ankle) will start Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors despite injuring his ankle last night. Edwards should be in line to see close to his normal run with the starting lineup for Minnesota.
