We take a look at the NBA injury report for Tuesday, November 14th and break down all the latest news in fantasy basketball.
The third round of the NBA In-Season Tournament group stage for most teams will take place on Tuesday, with 10 games to be played in doubleheaders on TNT. Here’s a look at the day’s injury report, along with the associated fantasy and betting implications.
Trae Young (personal) – Doubtful
If Young ends up missing, Dejounte Murray will be the primary guard. De’Andre Hunter and Bogdan Bogdanovic would be solid value options on the DFS roster.
Jalen Duren (ankle) – out
Duren is out again, which means Marvin Bagley should be Detroit’s starting center.
Josh Richardson (D) – Possible
Richardson should join the Heat.
Brandon Miller (ankle) – Possible
Gordon Hayward (hamstring) – Possible
Miller’s ankle injury is not serious, which is good news for Charlotte. Both he and Hayward should be available on Tuesday.
Nicolas Batum (personal) – OUT
Joel Embiid (hip) – Questionable
If Embiid misses the first night of a back-to-back for the Sixers, Paul Reed and Mo Bamba will be the primary centers. If the reigning MVP does get a night off, it might be wise to back the Pacers, although Tyrese Maxey’s current form might give bettors a bit of pause.
Gary Harris (groin) – questionable
If Harris doesn’t play, the Magic will likely insert Anthony Blake and Cole Anthony into the guard rotation and give them more playing time.
Ben Simmons (hip) – out
Simmons is out again, which is starting to become a joke for the Nets. Spencer Dinwiddie and Dennis Smith Jr. look to be Brooklyn’s primary ball-handlers.
Jeremy Souchon (groin) – questionable
Keldon Johnson (knee) – doubtful
Tre Jones (hamstring) – questionable
No matter what happens with these players, Devin Vassell will play a big role. If Jones and Johnson take office, Malachi Branham may be the biggest beneficiary.
Herbert Jones (knee) – doubtful
If Jones doesn’t play, you might root for Dallas’ wings like Grant Williams and Tim Hardaway Jr. to get better looks. For New Orleans, Jordan Hawkins and Najee Marshall will likely soak up those minutes.
Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) – out
With Brogdon sidelined and Scott Henderson expected to miss several weeks, Shaden Sharpe remains a high-usage fantasy/DFS option.
John Collins (ankle) – Possible
The combo big man should go to Utah.
Neither team currently has any significant day-to-day injuries.
Stephen Curry (knee) – questionable
Chris Paul and Brandin Pozzimski will be Golden State’s point guard options if Curry is unable to play the first night of a back-to-back for the Warriors.
Xavier Tillman (knee) – doubtful
Tillman is returning and would be a nice value-add in a DFS lineup with Memphis lacking big men. Bismack Biyombo will likely still start, but Tillman will have an advantage as a backup.
Anthony Davis (hip/groin) – Possible
LeBron James (Mavericks) – Questionable
The Lakers are in the first night of a back-to-back, and Wednesday’s game is a nationally televised game, so they theoretically can’t rest Davis and James at the same time. It could be a situation where one person plays on Tuesday and the other plays on Wednesday. If James sits, Hachimura looks like he’ll start like he did on Sunday.
