Collins will undergo surgery for a sprained right toe and will be sidelined for the rest of the 2025-26 season.

Collins has not played since sustaining the injury against the Bucks on Dec. 27. He was recently re-evaluated by medical staff, who determined that season-ending surgery was the best course of action for the veteran big man. Collins was limited to just 10 regular-season games due to injury and averaged 9.7 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 0.9 threes over 18.4 minutes per game. He will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.

Jokic produced 32 points (10-15 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 9-11 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists and four steals in 29 minutes during Friday's 157-103 win over the Trail Blazers.

It was the highest point total for the Nuggets in franchise history during a road game, and Jokic led the way by pacing all scorers on the night. The regular triple-double threat has scored more than 20 points in eight of nine games since returning from a bone bruise in his left knee, averaging 25.0 points, 13.0 boards, 8.8 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.3 threes over that stretch while shooting 51.0 percent from the floor.

Queen registered 18 points (7-10 FG, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, two blocks and three steals across 28 minutes during Friday's 139-118 loss to Milwaukee.

The rookie center just missed recording his 11th double-double of the season, and Queen's five combined steals-plus-blocks was his highest total since the calendar flipped to 2026 -- he racked up five blocks and two steals against the Bulls on New Year's Eve. Queen is still prone to some inconsistency, but over the last eight games he's flashed an impressive collection of skills, averaging 13.5 points, 6.6 boards, 3.4 assists, 1.1 steals, 1.1 blocks and 0.9 threes while shooting 57.1 percent from the floor and 63.6 percent (7-for-11) from long distance during that span.

Hartenstein (calf) posted 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal across 24 minutes during Friday's 105-86 win over the Nets.

Hartenstein made his return to the lineup after missing the Thunder's final game before the All-Star break due to right soleus injury management. The veteran center has been a big piece for Oklahoma City, and it's been his passing of late that's shining brightest. Friday marked his fifth consecutive showing with four or more assists. Over that stretch he's averaging 8.8 points and 9.8 boards to go with his 7.4 assists per game.

Sharpe recorded 12 points (6-8 FG, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals across 27 minutes during Friday's 105-86 loss to Oklahoma City.

Sharpe was in the starting lineup for the sixth time this season and looked like he belonged on Friday. The fifth-year big man finished with 12 points and eight boards in 27 minutes. He was one of only three Nets players in double figures. He also had a block and two steals. Furthermore, he's accumulated 10 steals in his past seven games.

Lovering became a free agent following the Grizzlies' 123-114 win over the Jazz on Friday after his 10-day contract expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

The undrafted rookie out of Utah picked up his first NBA start Friday and appeared in two of the Grizzlies' three games over the course of his 10-day deal, averaging 7.0 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.5 blocks in 24.5 minutes per contest. The Grizzlies are still likely to be shorthanded in the frontcourt heading into Saturday's matchup with the Heat, so Lovering could end up being re-signed to a second 10-day deal ahead of that contest.

Lopez accumulated 16 points (7-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and two steals across 35 minutes during Friday's 125-122 loss to the Lakers.

Lopez was forced to play a larger role on offense after John Collins (head) went down with an injury in the second quarter. Lopez recorded his third double-double of the season, and Ivica Zubac's (ankle) departure should allow Lopez to hit the milestone more frequently.

Gobert logged 22 points (9-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-8 FT), 17 rebounds, three blocks, one assist and one steal over 32 minutes during Friday's 122-111 win over the Mavericks. He was assessed his seventh flagrant foul of the season late in the second quarter, triggering an automatic one-game suspension.

Gobert finished with another strong double-double while offering four defensive counters, but his flagrant 1 foul marred an otherwise excellent night. The NBA will presumably review the play in question, but if the flagrant foul isn't rescinded, Gobert will sit out Sunday's game against the 76ers. Gobert previously served a one-game ban Jan. 13 against the Bucks after accruing his sixth flagrant foul. Though Gobert will be assessed another one-game suspension if his sixth flagrant foul is upheld, any additional flagrant 1 or 2 fouls beyond that will result in an automatic two-game suspension.

Bagley ended with 15 points (5-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 13 rebounds and one block over 24 minutes during Friday's 122-111 loss to the Timberwolves.

Bagley logged at least 24 minutes for the third time in his past four appearances, continuing to play a relatively consistent role for his new team. During that span, he has averaged 11.8 points, 9.3 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in 23.3 minutes per game. He is by no means a must-roster player, but should at least be on the radar for anyone needing points and rebounds.

Gafford (ankle) closed with eight points (4-7 FG), five rebounds, two blocks, two steals and one assist across 24 minutes in Friday's 122-111 loss to the Timberwolves.

After leaving the Mavericks' final game prior to the All-Star break Feb. 12 against the Lakers due to right ankle soreness, Gafford carried a questionable tag into Friday's contest but was cleared to play ahead of the opening tip. He came through with a serviceable two-way performance and is now averaging 8.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.5 blocks, 1.2 assists and 0.8 steals in 23.5 minutes per contest while appearing in each of the last 10 games. While his ceiling is limited, Gafford looks worthy of a roster spot in most fantasy leagues, specifically for managers looking for aid in the rebounds, blocks and field-goal percentage categories.
