Wed Dec 8 202108:29RJ Barrett Hits Career-High Seven Triples Versus SpursRJ BarrettSFKnicksTeam 6
New York Knicks shooting guard RJ Barrett produced a big night against the Spurs on Tuesday, hitting a career-high seven triples with eight attempts en route to a game-high 32 points. He was 11-for-20 overall from the field in a 121-109 win, notching five rebounds with two assists, two steals and two turnovers. Barrett can heat up in a hurry, but he's struggled to make 40 percent of his shots this season and it's limited his effectiveness on the offensive end. He meets the Pacers next, a team against whom Barrett has shot only 36.4 percent from the field this season.

Wed Dec 8 202108:22Kristaps Porzingis Grabs A Double-Double In Comeback GameKristaps PorzingisPFWizardsTeam 8
Dallas Mavericks forward/center Kristaps Porzingis ended a two-game absence with a 17-point, 12-rebound double-double in Tuesday's loss to the Nets, shooting 6-for-17 from the field and 1-for-5 from behind the arc. He also recorded five assists with one steal, one block and two turnovers. Porzingis now has six double-doubles in 16 games for the season. He's sadly very injury-prone, and the big guy could get a rest day on Wednesday, as the Mavericks face a battle against Memphis. There's another back-to-back set on the horizon as well and the team will definitely want to play it safe with Porzingis.

Wed Dec 8 202108:15Luka Doncic Continues To Struggle From DeepLuka DoncicPGMavericksTeam 6
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic returned to the lineup on Tuesday against Brooklyn, producing a game-high 28 points but struggling from downtown with a 3-for-11 effort. He shot 9-for-21 overall from the field in a 102-90 loss, collecting six rebounds and nine assists with one turnover in 37 minutes. Doncic is now 5-for-22 from three-point land this month. He'll look to turn the tide next against Memphis and Indiana. These are fairly uncomfortable matchups for him, but the Grizzlies give up the fifth-most made triples per game this season and their defensive efficiency has been the worst in the league for most of the season.

Wed Dec 8 202108:07James Harden Falls Just Short Of A Triple-DoubleJames HardenPGNetsGeoff
Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden missed his fifth triple-double of the season by one rebound in Tuesday's victory over Dallas, racking up 23 points, nine boards and 12 assists with one block and five turnovers. It was a nice shooting night for the Beard, as he went 7-for-13 from the field and 3-for-6 from downtown with a 6-for-7 record at the line. Harden played a whopping 42 minutes, so it will be interesting to see if he has any juice left for Wednesday's special matchup against Houston. The former MVP shined with a 29-10-14 line in his first trip back to H-Town last season.

Tue Dec 7 202121:12Kevin Porter Jr. Won't Be Available On WednesdayKevin PorterPGRocketsFree Agent
Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. (thigh) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Fantasy managers are certainly frustrated with how frequently Porter pops up on the injury report. He continues to deal with this lingering thigh issue that won't go away. His absence should mean more minutes for Eric Gordon and Garrison Mathews. Also, Armoni Brooks will see extended playing time off the bench. All of them could be possible deep league streaming options while Porter is out.

Tue Dec 7 202121:06Romeo Langford Won't Be Limited On TuesdayRomeo LangfordSGCelticsFree Agent
Boston Celtics guard Romeo Langford (ankle) won't be limited during Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The organization is calling his ankle injury a pain tolerance type of issue. Head coach Ime Udoka mentioned Langford won't have a minutes restriction for this contest. Right now, Langford is averaging 18.6 minutes per game on the season. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to go over that on Tuesday. That means, he'll be a low-end streaming option for Tuesday's small slate.

Tue Dec 7 202120:59Nassir Little Questionable For WednesdayNassir LittleSFTrailblazersFree Agent
Portland Trail Blazers forward Nassir Little (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He has missed each of his last four games due to a left ankle sprain. The Blazers could certainly use him out there with Damian Lillard (abdominal) and C.J. McCollum (lung) already ruled out. Also, Anfernee Simons (ankle) and Ben McLemore (hip) are questionable for Wednesday. CJ Elleby could be a tempting streaming option and Little would be asked to pick up the slack, assuming he's able to play on Wednesday.

Tue Dec 7 202120:54Cody Zeller Might Miss Wednesday's GameCody ZellerCTrailblazersFree Agent
Portland Trail Blazers center Cody Zeller (quad) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The injuries continue to pile up for Zeller, which is certainly frustrating to fantasy managers. His absence would likely mean more minutes for Larry Nance Jr. as the backup to starting center Jusuf Nurkic. Nance might have some low-end DFS appeal, assuming he gets increased playing time.

Tue Dec 7 202120:50Harrison Barnes Tagged As Questionable For WednesdayHarrison BarnesSFKingsGeoff
Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes (foot) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. The veteran forward has missed nearly two weeks of action due to a right foot sprain. The good news is, Barnes has been able to go through each of the last two practices. It sounds like Barnes is on track to play on Wednesday. However, fantasy managers should be mindful that Barnes could be on a minutes limit. His return could mean less minutes for Terence Davis and Chimezie Metu. Although, fantasy managers should check back on Wednesday for more information.

Tue Dec 7 202120:45Nicolas Batum Might Play WednesdayNicolas BatumPFClippersDr. A.
Los Angeles Clippers forward Nicolas Batum is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. It sounds like the veteran forward is getting closer after being sidelined while following the league's health and safety guidelines. Although, Marcus Morris Sr. (knee) is back in the rotation, which could might it more difficult for Batum to carve out a significant role. When healthy, Batum has been a top-100 player in terms of fantasy production. For the moment, fantasy managers should hold Batum until further notice.

Tue Dec 7 202120:40C.J. McCollum Out IndefinitelyCJ McCollumSGTrailblazersTeam 9
Portland Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum (lung) won't be returning to the court anytime soon. The star guard was held out of Monday's contest due to a rib contusion. However, the team has announced that McCollum is dealing with a collapsed right lung. It sounds like the organization plans to evaluate him further. Although, fantasy managers shouldn't expect McCollum back on the court anytime soon. Dennis Smith Jr. becomes an automatic pickup as basically the only healthy guard on the roster. Anfernee Simons (ankle) will get plenty of run as well once he is back in the picture.

Tue Dec 7 202120:00Romeo Langford Available For Celtics On TuesdayRomeo LangfordSGCelticsFree Agent
Boston Celtics guard Romeo Langford (ankle) is ready to play on Tuesday against the Lakers. He's back after missing Saturday's 145-117 dismantling of the Blazers. The 22-year-old doesn't play a big role for Boston, but with Jaylen Brown (hamstring) unavailable, there's an opportunity to log some more minutes. Aaron Nesmith and Payton Pritchard, who both enjoyed Saturday's blowout win, will have to settle for less playing time with Langford back in the mix and might not even feature at all.

Tue Dec 7 202119:53Jaylen Brown Misses Another Game On TuesdayJaylen BrownSFCelticsDr. A.
Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (hamstring) will remain sidelined for Tuesday's contest against the Lakers. He dealing with right hamstring tightness and will miss a third consecutive game. With Brown missing, Jayson Tatum will continue to lead the offense, and he's going for his third consecutive 30-point game here. Tatum torched the Lakers for 37 points in this season's first head-to-head meeting. Dennis Schroder has also looked great in the last two games that Brown has missed, and this is of course a special matchup for the German. Let's see if he can produce a special performance.

Tue Dec 7 202119:45Devin Vassell Remains Out On TuesdayDevin VassellSFSpursFree Agent
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Devin Vassell (quadriceps) will miss a second consecutive game on Tuesday against the Knicks. The 21-year-old has featured just once in the past five games, so his good campaign has taken a bit of a hit. Vassell has averaged 25 minutes a night, meaning there's a fair share of playing time available for others. Lonnie Walker IV benefits the most from Vassell's absence, although he hasn't done much in recent games.

Tue Dec 7 202119:24Tim Hardaway Jr. Good To Go On TuesdayTim HardawaySGMavericksTeam 6
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. (knee) is in the lineup for Tuesday's clash with the Nets. The 29-year-old sniper popped up on the injury report with a right knee contusion, but he's good to go. Hardaway Jr. exploded for a season-high 29 points off the bench at the weekend against the Grizzlies, so he's carrying some good momentum ahead of the tough matchup. The Mavs offense will run through Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis, who are both back on the court, but Hardaway Jr. should see plenty of the ball as well coming off the bench.

Tue Dec 7 202119:16Kristaps Porzingis Returns From A Two-Game AbsenceKristaps PorzingisPFWizardsTeam 8
Dallas Mavericks forward/center Kristaps Porzingis will be back on the court in Tuesday's fascinating matchup against Brooklyn, ending a two-game absence. Maxi Kleber has logged 30-plus minutes in back-to-back games with Porzingis unavailable, but the German will now head back to the bench. It's likely that we sadly won't be seeing any Boban Marjanovic either. Brooklyn has defended well against opposing bigs this season, so this isn't a great comeback spot for Porzingis, but his presence will at least give Dallas a much better chance to get the win.

Tue Dec 7 202119:08Luka Doncic Will Play Against The NetsLuka DoncicPGMavericksTeam 6
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (ankle) will return from a one-game absence on Tuesday against the Nets. This moves Jalen Brunson back on the bench and the rest of the Mavericks will have to deal with seeing the ball a lot less. Doncic has struggled to stay in the lineup lately, but he'll hopefully have a nice run in the team now. The Mavs superstar is averaging a 25-8-8 line this season, and he'll be a problem all game for the Nets.

Tue Dec 7 202109:08Jakob Poeltl Posts His Sixth Double-Double Of The SeasonJakob PoeltlCSpursTeam 5
San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl found his way to his sixth double-double of the campaign on Monday, notching 14 points and 11 rebounds in a 108-104 loss to Phoenix. He shot 7-for-11 from the field and capped off his line with two assists, one block and three turnovers in 32 minutes. A matchup against the Knicks is now on the horizon for the Austrian. New York gives up 22.1 points and 16.5 rebounds per 48 minutes to centers this season, so it's a pretty good spot for Poeltl to do some more damage.

Tue Dec 7 202109:04Dejounte Murray Extends Double-Double StreakDejounte MurrayPGSpursTeam 3
San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray collected a seventh consecutive double-double in Monday's loss to the Suns, scoring 17 points on 7-for-12 shooting and delivering 14 assists with four turnovers in 34 minutes. He hit both attempts from deep and finished things off with six rebounds and two steals. Murray has looked awesome all year and this was the start of a huge week for him. The Spurs have a whopping five games to play. It will be interesting to see how San Antonio head coach Gregg Popovich handles the situation. Murray has some injury history, so his minutes might be limited or he might even not feature in every game.

Tue Dec 7 202108:59Chris Paul Bags 12th Double-Double Of The SeasonChris PaulPGSunsTeam 4
Phoenix Suns point guard Chris Paul recorded his 12th double-double of the season in Monday's win over San Antonio, scoring a game-high 21 points on 9-for-18 shooting and handing out 10 assists with three turnovers. His work on the defensive end included one steal and one block. Paul lost his backcourt mate Devin Booker (hamstring) recently and he enjoyed a nice chunk of extra shots here. Scoring shouldn't be a problem for him in the next matchup either, as Phoenix takes on the Celtics, who are giving up the fifth-most points in the league to opposing point guards this season.
