Sarr notched 14 points (5-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal across 26 minutes during Thursday's 127-108 loss to Oklahoma City.

After a superb 31/11/5 line against the Sixers, Sarr's point total fell back to Earth, but he still registered a good rebound total. He came two rebounds shy of his third double-double over the first six games of the season, and his profile is definitely trending up despite his team's early struggles.

Turner posted 17 points (7-12 FG), seven rebounds, three assists, three triples, one block and one turnover across 29 minutes during Thursday's 120-110 victory over Golden State.

The 17 points marked a season-high for Turner, who saw some more shots falling his way with Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) unavailable, although the single block was a bit disappointing. The scoring has been inconsistent for Turner early in the season as he adjusts to his new surroundings, but he's been steady with the blocks and is averaging a career-high 3.0 assists per game, so it hasn't been a total disaster.

Horford registered three points (1-6), two rebounds, two assists, one three-pointer, two blocks and two turnovers in 20 minutes during Thursday's 120-110 loss to Milwaukee.

Horford has been in an awful rut over the past two games, going just 2-11 and 1-7 from distance, but at least he was able to block some shots Thursday night. Still, with averages of 5.8 points, 3.5 rebounds and not much else on the year, he's not worth rostering anywhere.

Kalkbrenner notched 17 points (8-9 FG, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, three blocks and one steal across 32 minutes during Thursday's 123-107 loss to the Magic.

Kalkbrenner set a new career-high in points in this one, and this was his third game of the season in which he only missed one shot. He currently leads the league in field goal percentage, draining 90 percent of his shot attempts to go with averages of 11.0 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.0 steal and 1.4 swats per contest, which has him hovering inside the top-60 on the year.

Williams (knee) is questionable to play in Friday's game against the Nuggets, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

Williams has yet to play a game this season, as the team has been cautious with his knee issue. If he's unable to play, Duop Reath and Yang Hansen will continue to receive more time on the floor.

Towns (quadriceps) has been listed as probable to play in Friday's game against the Bulls.

Towns has been nursing a quadriceps injury, but that likely won't keep him off the floor. However, he is coming off his worst offensive performance of the 2025-26 campaign, scoring a season-low eight points in Tuesday's game against the Bucks.

Looney (knee) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Clippers.

The doubtful designation is actually an upgrade for Looney, who has been out for the start of the campaign with a sprained knee. Although he's inching closer to a season debut, Looney's likely absence should allow Yves Missi, Derik Queen and DeAndre Jordan to share the center minutes.

Allen (finger) is questionable for Friday's game against the Raptors.

Allen has been diagnosed with a non-displaced fracture in his left finger, jeopardizing his status for Friday. If the star big man cannot play, Larry Nance or Dean Wade would likely be the direct beneficiaries from a fantasy perspective.

Bagley (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against the Thunder.

Bagley will play through a sprained ankle Thursday. With Alex Sarr healthy, however, Bagley's fantasy value is limited while in a backup role at center.

Robinson (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Bulls, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.

Robinson fully practiced Thursday, and he's set to be a game-time decision for Friday. The veteran big man is looking to make his season debut after missing New York's first four games of the year due to ankle injury management. Robinson appeared penciled in as the Knicks' top center early in the preseason, so he could start in his potential return to the floor.
