Aaron Gordon starting second half
Aaron Gordon is starting in place of the injured Victor Oladipo. He should a nice bump in value, also look for Evan Fournier and Tobias Harris to get more shots.

Myles Turner questionable to return
Myles Turner has a sprained left thumb and his return is questionable tonight. Jordan Hill, Lavoy Allen, and Ian Mahinmi will pick up the slack for Myler Turner. All these player are weak defenders and should be attacked in the event Turner misses the game Friday against Minnesota. Jordan Hill would be the best option to replace Turner’s production, and could also be low-owned.
As reported by: Marc D'Amico Raymond Felton starting Wednesday
Raymond Felton is starting in place of Chandler Parsons. The Mavericks are going with a two-point guard lineup with Deron Williams also starting, moving Wes Matthews over to SF.
As reported by: Mavericks on Twitter Michael Carter-Williams targeting Saturday return.
Michael Carter-Williams is nursing an ankle injury but is looking to come back on Saturday. The Bucks host the Cavaliers and Carter-Williams will be needed to cool down Mo Williams. Tyler Ennis will lose the little DFS value he did have with Carter-Williams looking to return. Jerryd Bayless has been playing well when he comes off the bench for the Bucks, but the minutes distribution has been weird in Milwaukee with the lineups being shuffled daily. Carter-Williams could be a very low-owned player due to being 7 games on the slate Saturday.
As reported by: cfgardner on Twitter Tyler Ennis and Johnny O'Bryant starting Wednesday
Michael Carter-Williams will miss another game and Jabari Parker will be rested. Tyler Ennis plays again at PG instead of Carter-Williams’ while Johnny O’Bryant will start for Parker at PF.
As reported by: cfgardner on Twitter Victor Oladipo will not return Wednesday
Victor Oladipo was diagnosed with concussion-like symptoms and has been ruled out for the game. Mario Hezonja will make up the minutes at SG for the Magic. Devyn Marble could also get some minutes against the Lakers.
As reported by: Rotoworld.com Wilson Chandler to undergo surgery, done for the season
Wilson Chandler had been struggling with a hip injury all season and is now going under the knife. The Nuggets have gotten used to playing without Chandler, but he was supposed to be a solid back-up for Danilo Gallinari.
As reported by: Adrian Wojnarowski Yahoo Sports Joffrey Lauvergne out, Jameer Nelson game-time decision
Joffrey Lauvergne is out and J.J. Hickson could replace him in the starting lineup. While no official word has been given, Jameer Nelson’s injury will likely be the final deciding factor. If Nelson plays, there will be a little bit more depth on the Nuggets bench thus allowing Will Barton to start. If Nelson does not play, Barton will likely be on the bench and Hickson could start.
As reported by: Nate Timmons JaKarr Sampson starting instead of Canaan
The 76ers made a last minute change to their starting lineup and started Sampson. Originally Isaiah Canaan was going to start, but with injuries mounting the Sixers had to go with Sampson to keep some depth on their bench.
As reported by: Rotoworld.com Chandler Parsons out
Chandler Parsons will rest tonight and not play the Clippers. He has been on a season-long minutes restriction and the Mavericks are on the second night of a back-to-back.
As reported by: Rotoworld.com Bradley Beal to play Saturday
Bradley Beal has said he wants to play on Saturday against the Magic. He is nursing a left shoulder injury and missed his first game of the season due to it. Gary Neal will go back to the bench, eliminating all his DFS value. John Wall really struggled in Beal’s absence and he should bounce back as well.
As reported by: J. Michael on Twitter Andrew Bogut to come off the bench Wednesday
Andrew Bogut has no minutes restricton but will still be coming off the bench for the Warriors. Festus Ezeli will get the start once again, but by both players being available, none really has any super DFS value. The Warriors play against the Grizzlies tonight in Memphis, which will require both big men to be ready. The Grizzlies will be looking to make up for their embarrassing 50 point loss.
As reported by: Rusty Simmons on Twitter Pelicans starting Ish Smith, Ryan Anderson vs. Hawks
We’re just passing along confirmation that both Ish Smith and Ryan Anderson will start. Both players are elite value options across the industry and can be used confidently in any format.

Jrue Holiday out Wednesday
Jrue Holiday is out on the second night of a back-to-back set. Ish Smith, Ryan Anderson, and Eric Gordon will get a lot of shots tonight. Luke Babbitt even makes for an interesting play.
As reported by: John Reid on Twitter Anthony Davis out Wednesday
Anthony Davis is out against the Hawks Wednesday. The MRI just revealed a bruise and he is listed as day-to-day. No official starters have been named, but Ryan Anderson will likely get all the minutes he can handle. Alexis Ajinca will also get a bump in minutes, but remains a tough DFS recommendation.
