CJ McCollum

SG, Portland Trail Blazers

C.J. McCollum dropped 33 points in the Blazers' 127-116 win over the Kings on Wednesday night, tacking on four rebounds, four assists, a steal, four blocks and five 3-pointers.

McCollum continues to prove top-50 value and better with nights like this. He is a natural scorer and the blocks aren't too shabby from the guard position either.

Jakarr Sampson

SF, Indiana Pacers

Jakarr Sampson is questionable to face the Warriors on Friday due to his left ankle sprain.

Sampson is barely cracking the Pacers' rotation. Whether he is healthy or injured, it does not make much of a difference for his status in fantasy.

Goga Bitadze

C, Indiana Pacers

Goga Bitadze is questionable to face the Warriors on Friday with a sore left knee.

Bitadze's role is irrelevant as long as Domantas Sabonis and Myles Turner are around to play center for the Pacers. You can ignore Bitadze beyond the deepest of leagues.

Tim Frazier

PG, Detroit Pistons

Tim Frazier has recovered enough from his illness to return to the Pistons lineup for Friday's game against the Grizzlies.

Illness and injuries still have his teammates down for the moment, but with Reggie Jackson back in action, it has only gotten tougher for Frazier to crack the Pistons' rotation. He's best left on waivers.

Bruce Brown

SG, Detroit Pistons

Bruce Brown Jr. will sit out Friday's tilt with the Grizzlies as he continues to cope with an illness.

Brown's absence from the lineup will give Reggie Jackson another opportunity to shine. It was surprising to see him so successful right off the bat, but if you have room feel free to pick up Jackson and see where things go. Jackson has never had a fantasy-friendly game, and he will have to perform well a couple more times to justify being a must-add in standard leagues.

Andre Drummond

C, Detroit Pistons

Andre Drummond (lip) will miss Friday's matchup against the Grizzlies.

This will be Drummond's second missed game after taking a rough hit to the head on Monday. The incident should not be a long term setback so just stay patient here. Christian Wood could be in for a large stat line and Markieff Morris should have a chance to grab more rebounds with Drummond inactive.

Bogdan Bogdanovic

SG, Sacramento Kings

According to Shams Charania, Bogdan Bogdanovic will get the start in place of Buddy Hield when the Kings face the Bulls on Friday.

The Kings have been stinking it up over the course of a six-game losing streak, and they've only won three out of there last 18 games. Maybe Hield will get more opportunities leading the bench unit, but one has to hope his minutes remain in the 30s. Bogdanovic will have a hard time breaking out as long as De'Aaron Fox is healthy and operating the offense, but he could get a few more minutes as a starter.

Jaylen Brown

SG, Boston Celtics

Jaylen Brown (right ankle sprain) will not play on Friday against the Magic.

Brown will be on the sidelines with Jayson Tatum and Enes Kanter. The rest of the Celtics roster should be in for big nights, making Kemba Walker, Marcus Smart, Gordan Hayward and Daniel Theis popular targets in DFS on Friday. In particular, Brown's absence should open up increased opportunities for Hayward. Brown was originally projected to tough it out on Friday so hopefully, he's back in action soon.

DeAndre' Bembry

SF, Atlanta Hawks

Deandre' Bembry (neuritis) underwent a non-surgical procedure on his right hand and will be reassessed prior to Sunday's game.

Bembry will be able to return without restrictions so there is no need to be overly concerned about his status. He remains a useful resource when you are seeking steals, but he brings little else to the fantasy table.

Isaiah Roby

PF, Dallas Mavericks

Isaiah Roby has been traded to the Thunder, while Justin Patton and cash considerations are being sent back to the Mavs.

Roby has not appeared in an NBA game this season, and the second-round pick has been spending the campaign in the G League with the Texas Legends until now. Maybe he gets an opportunity with the Thunder down the line, but in all likelihood, he will remain a developmental project that is best left in the fantasy free agent pool.

Justin Patton

C, Oklahoma City Thunder

Justin Patton and cash considerations have been traded to the Mavs for Isaiah Roby.

It's been a lost fantasy season for Patton who has appeared in just five games with the Thunder thus far. He will serve as a big back big for the Mavs now that they are without Dwight Powell. He is still not much of a fantasy asset, but keep an eye on him in case another injury occurs in Dallas.
