Davis supplied 21 points (7-18 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 7-9 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 118-97 loss to the Mavericks.

The veteran big led the Lakers in points and boards while producing his fifth straight double-double, and his 26th of the season -- third in the NBA behind Domantas Sabonis (32) and Karl-Anthony Towns (30). Davis' double-double streak might be at 13 games were it not for an ankle injury he suffered Christmas Day against the Warriors, and over those last 13 appearances, he's averaging 24.2 points, 12.8 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 2.6 blocks and 1.3 steals while shooting 50.0 percent from the floor.

Turner is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bulls due to an illness.

Turner was a late addition to the injury report after presumably waking up feeling under the weather. The center hasn't missed a game since Nov. 18 and has been remarkably durable this campaign. If he's unable to go, the Pacers could turn to Obi Toppin, Jarace Walker and Thomas Bryant to take on extra minutes out of the frontcourt.

Reid notched 13 points (6-16 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one block across 23 minutes during Tuesday's 104-97 win over the Pelicans.

Reid had a strong showing and recorded his first double-double since Oct. 24. His overall numbers have slightly decreased compared to the 2023-24 season, and while he remains a reliable option in fantasy due to his heavy workload and usage rate off the bench, his upside is currently capped. Last season, Reid shot a career-high 41.4 percent from deep which led to 2.1 made three-pointers per game. This season, Reid is shooting 35 percent from deep and making only 1.7 threes a night.

Kessler totaled 21 points (8-11 FG, 5-6 FT), 10 rebounds, three blocks and one steal in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 124-121 loss to the Hawks.

Kessler had another solid two-way display Tuesday, recording a third straight double-double and reaching that feat for the fifth time over his last six contests. The big man remains one of the best two-way centers in the NBA, and he's averaging 12.3 points, 12.5 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game over that six-game stretch.

Capela ended Tuesday's 124-121 victory over the Jazz with 18 points (9-11 FG), six rebounds and three blocks over 25 minutes.

Capela was efficient from the floor and posted his highest scoring output since Nov. 22, when he finished with 21 points and 11 rebounds in a loss to the Bulls. That said, this was the first time he eclipsed the 10-point mark in January and just the third time he had done it over his last 10 games. He remains valuable in fantasy, but there's no doubt his upside is not what it once was.

Adebayo closed Tuesday's 114-98 victory over the Warriors with 19 points (9-14 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), nine rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals across 30 minutes.

Although the Warriors put up a fight in the paint behind Trayce Jackson-Davis and Draymond Green, Adebayo received great support from his teammates and was able to post a solid total. The team was likely fatigued after a challenging double-overtime loss to the Kings on Monday night, and although Adebayo finished a bit below his usual scoring average, he showed no adverse effects from the back-to-back.

Porzingis posted 25 points (9-18 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-8 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 118-106 victory over Denver.

Nikola Jokic's (illness) absence left the door wide open for Porzingis to dominate the paint, and he finished with his first double-double of the season. While it's surprising to note that Porzingis was without a double-double this season before Tuesday's game, the big man's attendance record hasn't helped his bottom line. He's missed a total of 23 games and is still dealing with a lingering ankle injury.

Valanciunas supplied 18 points (7-11 FG, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and one assist across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 135-112 loss to the Rockets.

The veteran big man finished as the club's second-leading scorer behind Corey Kispert (23 points) in the blowout loss. Valanciunas has played a muted role throughout the season with the Wizards prioritizing Alexandre Sarr's development, and Valanciunas will likely continue to hover around the 20-minute mark. The 32-year-old has reached double-digit points in three of his last five games, and during that five-game span, he has shot 60.0 percent from the floor in 21.0 minutes per contest.

Sengun posted 26 points (12-23 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, six assists and two steals in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 135-112 win over Washington.

The 22-year-old delivered a stellar bounce-back performance scoring the rock following back-to-back 14-point outings. Sengun struggled in the first half, posting eight points and five boards while shooting only 4-for-11 from the field. However, the big man found his rhythm in the third quarter, racking up 14 points and four rebounds while shooting an efficient 7-for-11 from the field. Sengun also posted his 23rd game of the season with 10-plus points and double-digit rebounds in Tuesday's blowout win.

Richards produced 15 points (4-6 FG, 7-8 FT), 12 rebounds and three blocks over 25 minutes during Tuesday's 115-104 win over Phoenix.

Richards made his mark off the bench in Tuesday's winning effort, leading all Hornets players in rebounds while concluding as one of three players with 15 or more points in a double-double showing. Richards, who also hauled in a team-leading trio of blocks, has recorded a double-double in five contests this season.
