  • Celtics' Neemias Queta: Nearly double-doubles in loss

    Queta amassed nine points (3-6 FG, 3-6 FT) and 10 rebounds over 25 minutes during Thursday's 116-101 loss to the Bucks.

    Queta delivered another solid performance Thursday night and nearly recorded a double-double in back-to-back games for the first time this season. The 26-year-old big man has scored in double figures in four of his past six games, averaging 12.3 points, 9.2 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.3 blocks over 26 minutes during that stretch.

    Bucks' Myles Turner: Subpar performance in win

    Turner posted four points (1-6 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds and two blocks over 28 minutes during Thursday's 116-101 win over the Celtics.

    Turner delivered a disappointing performance Thursday night against the Celtics despite the win, tying his second-lowest point total in a game this season. The 29-year-old center remains a strong source of blocks, notching at least one in 10 straight games, but the big man is averaging just 4.1 boards during that time. He's currently averaging his fewest rebounds per game (5.6) since his rookie season.

  • Kings' Maxime Raynaud: Continues to produce

    Raynaud provided 15 points (7-13 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one steal across 37 minutes during Thursday's 136-105 loss to the Nuggets.

    Raynaud has posted double-digit points and at least eight rebounds in his last three starts while filling in for Domantas Sabonis (knee). The rookie out of Stanford has also had three games with double-digit points off the bench, and he should remain a valuable fantasy commodity as long as he stays in the first unit, which should last for at least one more game. Sabonis isn't expected back until the Dec. 18 matchup against the Trail Blazers at the earliest.

  • Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Scores 22 points in return

    Sengun produced 22 points (9-22 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 15 rebounds, five assists and four steals across 36 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 victory over the Clippers.

    Sengun returned from a two-game absence due to an illness but was excellent in this matchup, posting a double-double and recording at least four tallies in four of the five major categories. Sengun showed some rust with his shot, but that won't matter much as long as he can fill the stat sheet regularly like he did Thursday. The big man is averaging a robust line of 23.9 points, 8.6 rebounds, 6.8 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.2 blocks per game over his last 10 contests.

  • John Collins PF | LAC

    Clippers' John Collins: Struggles continue

    Collins closed with nine points (3-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two assists and two steals across 24 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 loss to the Rockets.

    Collins has had little impact on the Clippers this season. Even though he's been relegated to a secondary role on offense behind James Harden, Ivica Zubac and Kawhi Leonard, Collins has also failed to capitalize on the opportunities he's had as a starter. While there has been a slight uptick in his numbers of late, Collins has surpassed the 15-point mark just three times over his last 10 games. He's averaging 12.6 points and 4.5 boards per game over that span. On the season, Collins is averaging 12.1 points per game, which would be his lowest mark since his rookie year in 2017-18.

  • Nikola Jokic C | DEN

    Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Rolls to another productive night

    Jokic chipped in 36 points (14-16 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), 12 rebounds, eight assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Thursday's 136-105 victory over the Kings.

    Jokic dominated on the offensive end of the court, leading the Nuggets in scoring by drilling 87.5 percent of his field-goal attempts. He also managed to contribute across the board, ending the night just two assists shy of a triple-double. The star center is now averaging 31.4 points, 11.6 rebounds, 10.6 assists and 1.0 steals over five December appearances.

  • Drew Eubanks C | SAC

    Kings' Drew Eubanks: Suffers thumb injury

    Eubanks suffered a left thumb injury and will not return to Thursday's game against Denver, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

    Eubanks logged just four minutes in this game before leaving for good. For now, he can be considered questionable for Sunday's game against Minnesota.

  • Ivica Zubac C | IND

    Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Drops 33 points in loss

    Zubac collected 33 points (13-14 FG, 7-11 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks in 35 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 loss to the Rockets.

    Zubac operated with efficiency on the offensive end, missing only one shot from the field while doing damage at the charity stripe. He also led the Clippers with a pair of swats, though it was a rare night in which he failed to secure double-digit rebounds. Zubac tied his best scoring performance of the 2025-26 campaign. He also racked up 33 points one other time this year Nov. 23 against Cleveland.

  • Jericho Sims C | MIL

    Bucks' Jericho Sims: Coming off bench

    Smis will come off the bench Thursday against Boston.

    Sims has been ineffective in his last two appearances, posting averages of 2.0 points, 6.0 rebounds and 0.5 blocks in 30.5 minutes per contest. For that reason, the Bucks will roll with a smaller lineup featuring Gary Trent in the first unit.

  • Yang Hansen C | POR

    Trail Blazers' Yang Hansen: Ruled out Thursday

    Hansen (face) will not play Thursday against the Pelicans.

    Portland is going to be very thin in the frontcourt Thursday with Donovan Clingan (leg) and Robert Williams (illness) both out as well. As a result, the team could lean on Duop Reath and Kris Murray.
