Davis (Achilles/hip) is available and in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Jazz, Khobi Price of The Orange County Register reports.

Davis has been upgraded from questionable to available Wednesday despite dealing with nagging Achilles and hip injuries. With LeBron James (ankle) out, Davis will likely shoulder more of the offensive workload for the Lakers.

Jackson is in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Jackson will replace Myles Turner (illness) in the starting lineup Wednesday. Jackson is averaging 12.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steals in 26.0 minutes across his previous two starts this season.

Drummond will start Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.

The Bulls will match size Wednesday, rolling with both Nikola Vucevic and Drummond in the starting lineup. Chicago has trotted out this lineup once this season, in an OT win against the Timberwolves on Feb. 6. In that contest, Drummond played 35 minutes and logged 16 points, 16 rebounds and four blocks.

Kleber (toe) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Spurs, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.

Kleber has been downgraded from questionable to out Wednesday due to a right small toe dislocation. The 31-year-old big man hasn't suffered a setback, but Dallas is opting to play it cautiously with the injury that caused him to miss a lengthy period earlier this season. Kleber should be available to suit up against Phoenix on Feb. 22 after the All-Star break.

Lively (nose) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Spurs, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.

Lively has been upgraded from questionable to available Wednesday after missing Dallas' last seven contests with a nasal injury. However, the rookie big man will operate under a minutes restriction, so he could serve as Dallas' backup center to Daniel Gafford.

Fernando is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup with Charlotte, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.

With both Clint Capela (adductor) and Onyeka Okongwu (toe) sidelined, Fernando will be thrust into the starting lineup and should get all the run he can handle. He has some upside as a shot-blocker, so Fernando could be someone to think about streaming in deep leagues. Joining him in the first unit Wednesday evening will be Trae Young, Dejounte Murray, Saddiq Bey and Jalen Johnson.

Porter (ankle) will be available for Wednesday's game versus the Pacers.

Porter could play some marginal minutes behind Kelly Olynyk on Wednesday evening, but it's unlikely he'll be a large enough part of the rotation to make an impact in fantasy hoops.

Zeller (knee) is out for Wednesday's game versus the Wizards, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.

Zeller will miss his fourth straight contest Wednesday after being downgraded from questionable to out due to a left knee contusion. The veteran big man's next chance to suit up is Feb. 22 against Houston.

Turner (illness) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Raptors, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.

Turner has been downgraded from questionable to out Wednesday due to a non-COVID illness. With Jalen Smith (back) out, Isaiah Jackson and Obi Toppin should see increased minutes in the frontcourt. Turner's next chance to suit up will come after the All-Star Break on Feb. 22 against Detroit.

Hartenstein (Achilles) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Orlando, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.

Hartenstein continues to deal with left Achilles tendinopathy and will be unavailable for a third consecutive game. He'll have time to rest during the All-Star break, while Taj Gibson, Precious Achiuwa and Jericho Sims could handle increased roles Wednesday.
