As reported by: Indiana Pacers official Twitter feed Kobe Bryant questionable to play tonight
Kobe Bryant has a sore back and is questionable to play tonight. It’s a situation to monitor closely and his absence would be a bump for all members of the Lakers back court including Nick Young, Lou Williams, and Jordan Clarkson.
As reported by: Mark Medina on Twitter Nerlens Noel and Robert Covington out tonight
Two key components of the 76ers rotation will be absent from tonight’s game against the Raptors as both Nerlens Noel and Robert Covington have been ruled out with injuries. Richaun Holmes is the biggest beneficiary of this news and is an excellent punt play at the PF position.
As reported by: Dei Lynam on Twitter Anthony Davis injured
Anthony Davis suffered a right hip contusion in the second quarter and did not return to the game. He will be re-evaluated before tomorrow’s game against the Hawks and is questionable for now.
Kevin Durant out Tuesday
Kevin Durant is suffering from a hamstring injury and is out for the rest of the game. Kyle Singler replaced him to start the second half.
Rubio scratched late on Tuesday
Ricky Rubio was a game-time scratch with a knee injury. Zach Lavine started in his place.
As reported by: TWolves on Twitter Kevin Martin starting Tuesday
Kevin Martin will join Adreian Payne in the starting lineup for the Timberwolves. Andrew Wiggins and Kevin Garnett will both miss the game. Nemanja Bjelica will also get a bump in value and should make for a strong DFS option tonight.
As reported by: TWolves on Twitter Andrew Wiggins not expected to play Tuesday
Andrew Wiggins is nursing a rib injury and will likely miss tonight’s game. Kevin Martin would make for a great pivot, and Ricky Rubio will likely have to carry a larger offensive burden. Shabazz Muhammad will also likely make a decent punt play on the late-swap eligible DraftKings.
As reported by: Rotoworld.com Gerald Henderson probable Wednesday
Gerald Henderson is probable Wednesday for the Trail Blazers against the Spurs. This will likely cut into the minutes of C.J. McCollum and Al-Farouq Aminu thus limiting their upside, but keeping them fresher for the rest of the season.
As reported by: Rotoworld.com Brook Lopez probable Wednesday
Brook Lopez is recovering from a foot injury and will be probable Wednesday against the Rockets. He will likely face Dwight Howard and would be a low-end big man in that contest. The game figures to be uptempo, limiting the effectiveness of Lopez.
As reported by: Rotoworld.com Dwyane Wade starting Tuesday
Dwyane Wade will be in the starting lineup against the Lakers. The starting 5 for the Heat will remain the same with Dragic, Deng, Bosh, and Whiteside. Whiteside and Dragic remain as elite options against a terrible Lakers defense.
As reported by: Ira Winderman on Twitter Jae Crowder starting Tuesday
Jae Crowder will be starting Tuesday against the Bucks. He will be matched up with Giannis Antetokounmpo and is a cheap pivot off of Antetokounmpo in the Turbo slate tonight. Crowder is coming off of a 40 point fantasy night, so he’ll look to keep the momentum going.
As reported by: Rotoworld.com Omer Asik expected to start tonight
Asik is expected to start tonight, which will shift Alexis Ajinca over to the bench, and also will lessen the number of minutes for Ryan Anderson. Anthony Davis and Eric Gordon are both very solid targets in this game, but it’s very hard to trust any other option on the Pelicans for DFS even considering the high total/close spread.

DeMarre Carroll, Terrence Ross out on Tuesday
DeMarre Carroll and Terrence Ross will both miss tonight’s game against the Knicks. This sets up beautifully for James Johnson, who should see at least 23-25 minutes of run (with upside for much more) with Carroll and Ross out. Johnson is an excellent punt play in any format tonight. Cory Joseph will also see extra run as a result and becomes a sneaky GPP punt.
