  • Kings' Maxime Raynaud: Nets 14 points on seven shots

    Raynaud accumulated 14 points (6-7 FG, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one steal over 35 minutes before fouling out of Tuesday's 100-98 loss to the Mavericks.

    With just one missed field-goal attempt on the evening, Raynaud finished with a pristine true shooting percentage of 88.8. He's been playing well as a starter in Sacramento, posting averages of 13.3 points, 9.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists per contest, and he should continue to see quality minutes as long as Domantas Sabonis (knee) is sidelined.

  • Wizards' Marvin Bagley: Scores 12 off bench

    Bagley closed with 12 points (2-6 FG, 8-8 FT), three rebounds, one block and two steals in 17 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 win over the Magic.

    Bagley had an effective shift off the bench, but it's not a surprise to see him log just 17 minutes. Alex Sarr had the hot hand Tuesday with 23 points. As long as Sarr is active, Bagley's fantasy appeal will likely be limited to deeper formats.

  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Double-doubles in win

    Gafford provided 10 points (5-8 FG), 13 rebounds, one block and one steal across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 100-98 win over the Kings.

    This was Gafford's third double-double of the season, and his second over the past four games. He's been playing well over that four-game stretch, posting averages of 11.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.5 blocks per contest.

  • Jay Huff C | IND

    Pacers' Jay Huff: Drops 20 points in start

    Huff finished Tuesday's 120-116 loss to Cleveland with 20 points (7-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one block across 31 minutes.

    Huff ceded his spot in the starting lineup to Micah Potter in the two games prior to Tuesday's contest, but the two big men swapped spots against Cleveland. Huff made the most of the change, tying a season high in points while finishing as the Pacers' second-leading scorer behind Pascal Siakam (22 points). Huff also tied a season high with four triples, and he'll look to carry that momentum into Thursday's game against a Hornets team that will be without Ryan Kalkbrenner (elbow).

  • Santi Aldama C | MEM

    Grizzlies' Santi Aldama: Iffy for Wednesday

    Aldama is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Suns with right ankle soreness.

    This is a new injury for Aldama, and he must have tweaked his ankle Tuesday against the Spurs. During that game, Aldama finished with 10 points (3-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 24 minutes. If Aldama is unable to play, the Grizzlies may need to lean on some smaller lineups.

  • Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Questionable for Wednesday

    Wembanyama is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers with a left knee bone bruise.

    Wembanyama recorded 30 points (10-20 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 21 minutes during the Spurs' 106-105 loss to the Grizzlies on Tuesday, successfully returning from a two-game absence. The Spurs may tread carefully for the second leg of this back-to-back set, and it sounds like Wembanyama will be a game-time call.

  • Joel Embiid C | PHI

    76ers' Joel Embiid: Upgraded to probable

    Embiid (knee) has been upgraded to probable ahead of Wednesday's game versus the Wizards.

    Embiid was initially listed as questionable on the injury report, but with the upgrade to the probable tag, it appears he'll power through the knee issue. Check back for official confirmation on his status closer to tipoff.

  • Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Double-doubles in return

    Allen chipped in 19 points (8-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-6 FT), 12 rebounds, four assists and two steals in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 120-116 win over the Pacers.

    Allen returned Tuesday from a one-game absence due to an illness, and the veteran center was productive in his return. He has recorded three double-doubles over his last four outings, and over that span he has averaged 17.5 points, 11.3 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.3 steals over 29.8 minutes per game.

  • Hawks' Onyeka Okongwu: Questionable for Wednesday

    Okongwu (illness) has been downgraded to questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.

    Okongwu was a very late addition to the injury report, presumably after waking up under the weather. If the center is unable to suit up, the Hawks will likely lean more on Kristaps Porzingis and Mouhamed Gueye.

  • Magic's Wendell Carter: Season low scoring output in loss

    Carter provided two points (1-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt), seven rebounds and three assists in 20 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 loss to the Wizards.

    Carter and the rest of Orlando's starters did not play in the fourth quarter, as head coach Jamahl Mosley stuck with the bench unit, which nearly erased a 26-point deficit with a valiant comeback attempt. The 26-year-old big man chipped in a season low two points, and his 20 minutes marked his lowest in a game since Oct. 29.
