LaRavia registered eight points (3-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 25 minutes during Sunday's 131-125 win over the Raptors.

LaRavia delivered a well-rounded performance despite modest scoring, providing two three-pointers and contributions in four additional categories. His starting role offers a path to consistent playing time, though his limited offensive usage caps his upside in standard fantasy formats.

Carr posted no counting stats in one minute during Sunday's 131-125 victory over the Raptors.

The rookie missed Los Angeles' first six games due to an oblique injury before making a brief appearance Sunday. His return to the floor is a positive development, though Carr remains outside the regular rotation and carries little immediate fantasy value.

Jackson notched 12 points (4-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 23 minutes in Sunday's 98-90 loss to the Nets.

Jackson hasn't started a game for the Pacers this season, but he looks set to earn more playing time soon if he keeps this up. He's notched 36 points, seven rebounds, three assists and five made three-pointers over his last two appearances. With Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring) out for the time being, Jackson could be a player worth keeping close tabs on in deep formats if you need backcourt depth.

Nesmith finished with 11 points (3-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, four assists and a steal across 30 minutes in Sunday's 98-90 loss to the Nets.

Nesmith struggled from beyond the arc, missing all four of his three-point attempts, but salvaged some offensive production at the free-throw line. His four assists were a season-high output, and he also scored in double digits for the fourth time in the Pacers' last five games. Nesmith should continue to enjoy an expanded offensive role with Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring) sidelined for the time being.

Siakam delivered 17 points (6-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, five assists and a steal across 35 minutes in Sunday's 98-90 loss to the Nets.

Siakam contributed across several categories but couldn't provide enough offensive production to prevent Indiana's fourth consecutive defeat. His five assists helped compensate for a relatively modest scoring total, while his 35-minute workload highlights just how important he is in the Pacers rotation. Siakam's established role as a primary offensive option provides a dependable fantasy foundation, and his contributions in other areas boost his upside considerably. He's averaging 21.4 points, 7.4 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game.

Sharpe registered 15 points (5-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 13 rebounds and four assists across 26 minutes in Sunday's 98-90 win over the Pacers.

Sharpe dominated the glass, collecting four offensive rebounds while shooting efficiently en route to his first double-double of the season. It was also the second time he scored in double digits this season. Sharpe's rebounding provides a useful foundation, although his ceiling will depend on whether Brooklyn consistently gives him enough touches and playing time -- he has played more than 25 minutes just twice all season long.

Traore tallied 16 points (6-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt), two rebounds, six assists and a steal across 30 minutes in Sunday's 98-90 win over the Pacers.

Making his third consecutive start in the Nets' backcourt due to the absence of Egor Demin (leg), Traore delivered a productive performance, connecting on four three-pointers while committing just one turnover. His six assists also highlighted his growing involvement as a facilitator as well. Traore's combination of perimeter scoring and playmaking gives him intriguing fantasy upside, although his efficiency and role remain worth monitoring as the season progresses.

Porter posted 23 points (7-16 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 6-9 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and a steal across 36 minutes in Sunday's 98-90 win over the Pacers.

Porter led Brooklyn in scoring and narrowly missed what would've been his second double-double of the season en route to helping the Nets secure their first victory of the season. Porter continues to offer a strong combination of scoring, perimeter volume, and rebounding, making him a valuable fantasy contributor across all formats and one of Brooklyn's go-to options on offense alongside Julius Randle. Porter has scored at least 20 points in four of his six appearances so far.

The Clippers recalled Niederhauser (foot) from the G League's San Diego Clippers on Sunday.

Niederhauser remains unlikely to play a meaningful role in the short term following a seven-month recovery from foot surgery. The 23-year-old might instead make a phased return to action, possibly seeing limited minutes at some point in upcoming weeks and making some appearances in the G League. Last season, he averaged 4.3 points, 2.9 rebounds and 0.3 assists per regular-season game during his rookie year.

The Clippers recalled Ingram (Achilles) from the G League's San Diego Clippers on Sunday.

Ingram appears to be making steady progress after missing the opening run of the 2026-27 season through a partial Achilles tear, although it remains unclear when he'll be an option again for the Clippers and how quickly he'll regain playing time. Having worked with the G League squad Sunday, the versatile man is back with the main team, and his eventual return to action will restore a major piece of the rotation. However, while Ingram remains out, Darius Garland and Kris Dunn look set to carry most of the workload in upcoming contests.
