  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Records double-double in victory

    Clingan produced 14 points (6-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-3 FT), 14 rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 30 minutes during Saturday's 98-93 win over Sacramento.

    Clingan finished with his seventh double-double of the season in the low-scoring affair, taking advantage of Sacramento's current woes at the center position. Although he endured a rocky return after a three-game absence, the second-year pro roared back to life with a 19-point outing in the front end of the two-game set against the Kings, and posted another big number Saturday night.

  • Suns' Mark Williams: Rough night again Saturday

    Williams accumulated four points (2-3 FG), five rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 18 minutes during Saturday's 119-116 loss to Golden State.

    Williams was poor for the third time in the past four games, a worrying trend for those invested in the big man. While the lack of production has been frustrating, at least it correlates with his playing time, providing managers with a workable sample size. At this stage, the hope is that he can figure things out, starting with Tuesday's matchup against the Lakers.

  • Paul Reed C | DET

    Pistons' Paul Reed: Garbage-time special

    Reed notched one block in two minutes during Saturday's 112-86 win over the Hornets.

    Reed was in the rotation for the fourth time in the past five games, albeit during garbage time only. With Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart carrying the center load, Reed is merely a depth option at this point, called upon when others are injured. In 21 appearances, he has averaged just 6.1 points and 4.1 rebounds in 10.9 minutes per game.

  • Hornets' Mason Plumlee: Scoreless again Saturday

    Plumlee contributed one rebound, one assist and one steal in seven minutes during Saturday's 112-86 loss to the Pistons.

    Plumless continues to play a non-existent role, serving as the third-string center behind Ryan Kalkbrenner and Moussa Diabate. In 13 appearances this season, the veteran is averaging just 1.6 points and 2.7 rebounds in 8.8 minutes per game, making him a non-factor in all fantasy formats.

  • Alex Sarr C | WAS

    Wizards' Alex Sarr: Records seventh double-double

    Sarr closed Saturday's 130-122 victory over the Grizzlies with 18 points (8-16 FG, 2-4 3Pt), 11 rebounds, two assists and one block in 26 minutes.

    The Grizzlies lost Brandon Clarke (calf) early in the contest, and Sarr was able to take advantage of the gap opposite an overworked Jaren Jackson. Although Jock Landale stepped in to cover the absence, he had limited success while the Wizards worked their way back from a massive deficit. Sarr showed no ill effects from the thigh injury that sidelined him for six games, although he may take a seat for injury management Sunday, which is the tail end of the back-to-back.

  • Ivica Zubac C | IND

    Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Won't return Saturday

    Zubac will not return to Saturday's game against the Lakers due to a left ankle injury, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

    Zubac rolled his left ankle, and while he was able to walk off the court under his own power, he was sporting a serious limp as he went back to the locker room. For now, Zubac should be considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Rockets, and if he needs to miss time, that would benefit John Collins and Brook Lopez.

  • Jay Huff C | IND

    Pacers' Jay Huff: Limited to nine points Saturday

    Huff closed with nine points (3-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 21 minutes during Saturday's 128-109 loss to New Orleans.

    Huff didn't have his best performance in this contest, though to be fair, the Pacers' frontcourt struggled mightily all game, except for Pascal Siakam (22 points, 6-14 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 8-11 FT). Huff has been making his presence felt on defense, though, as he's recorded multiple blocks in each of his last 14 regular-season appearances.

  • Ivica Zubac C | IND

    Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Goes to locker room

    Zubac limped to the locker room with an apparent ankle injury during Saturday's game versus the Lakers, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

    Zubac appeared to roll his left ankle and wasn't able to put much weight on it. The Clippers will likely provide an update shortly, but his night could be done.

  • Nikola Jokic C | DEN

    Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Pops for team-high 25 in loss

    Jokic logged 25 points (9-20 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-7 FT), seven rebounds and five assists in 29 minutes during Saturday's 115-101 loss to the Rockets.

    The perennial MVP candidate led the Nuggets in scoring on the afternoon, but he failed to record at least a double-double for only the third time in 27 games this season. Jokic's seven boards tied his season low, while his five dimes were his lowest output in that category so far in 2025-26. He has scored more than 20 points in 10 straight games, averaging 29.1 points, 10.9 boards, 10.1 assists, 2.0 threes and 1.0 steals over that stretch.

  • Mavericks' Anthony Davis: Double-doubles in loss

    Davis contributed 24 points (11-20 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 15 rebounds, two assists and one block over 34 minutes during Saturday's 121-114 loss to the 76ers.

    Davis dominated his matchup with Andre Drummond, and this was a solid bounce-back game from him following Thursday's 7-for-18 shooting performance. The Mavs open up Week 10 with a Monday-Tuesday, back-to-back set, so managers will need to be on the lookout for a potential rest day for the 32-year-old veteran.
