Fred VanVleet

PG, Toronto Raptors

Fred VanVleet (shoulder) is available to play in Tuesday's Game 2 against the Wizards.

VanVleet is a big part of the Raptors' dominant bench but because they have so much depth they're able to carry along without him relatively fine. How much he can go is in question as it's a bit of a surprise that he's available.

Davis Bertans

F, Washington Wizards

Both Davis Bertans and Rui Hachimura were wearing the white jerseys, joining Ish Smith, Bradley Beal and Thomas Bryant as starters in Tuesday's practice.

There were whispers of the Wizards shifting the sharp-shooting Bertans up to the three spot as the team deals with a multitude of injuries, and this practice is a good indication of the team doing so. Bertans makes for a nice late-round pick for his propensity to knock down triples.

Isaiah Thomas

PG, Washington Wizards

Isaiah Thomas (left thumb surgery) has been shooting with both hands recently but there is still no timetable for his return.

Thomas is roughly four weeks post-surgery and looks to be getting closer to a return. He will miss the first chunk of games and then will compete with Ish Smith for minutes at the PG position. Thomas will have every opportunity to show that he still has it and makes for a fine late-round lottery ticket.

Reggie Hearn

G, Los Angeles Lakers

The Lakers have signed G Reggie Hearn to contract and waived David Stockton in a corresponding move on Tuesday.

Hearn, a six-year G-League veteran out of Northwestern, will likely return to the G-League after the preseason. He is off the fantasy radar.

Kyle Lowry

PG, Toronto Raptors

Kyle Lowry (left thumb surgery) said that he will be ready to go for opening night.

Lowry, who will turn 34 in March, also said that he feels better than ever and credited that to how he takes care of his body. The Raptors are going to need Lowry to be a scorer this year, and he will have every opportunity to do so.

Devin Cannady

G, Brooklyn Nets

The Nets have signed guards Devin Cannady and CJ Massinburg to unspecified contracts on Tuesday.

Cannady and Massinburg are not on the fantasy radar.

Ahmad Caver

G, Memphis Grizzlies

The Grizzlies have signed G Ahmad Caver to a contract on Tuesday while waiving waived guard Dusty Hannahs in a corresponding move.

The terms of the deal have not yet been disclosed, but it's likely to get Caver on the team's G-League affiliate. The undrafted rookie out of Old Dominion, Caver, does not hold any fantasy value.

Cody Martin

PF, Charlotte Hornets

Cody Martin (right ankle sprain) is questionable to face the Pistons on Wednesday.

Martin has missed too much valuable time to put himself in the early season conversation. Martin will have a chance to get playing time when he gets healthy, but he is not on the fantasy radar to start the year.

Marvin Williams

PF, Charlotte Hornets

Marvin Williams (illness) is listed as probable vs the Pistons on Wednesday.

Williams is the elder statesman on a team looking at getting an early lottery pick and develop their young guys. Williams is expected to come off the bench, with a potential trade looming at some point this season.

Nicolas Batum

SG, Charlotte Hornets

The Hornets are listing Nicolas Batum (sore right Achilles) as out for Wednesday's game against the Pistons.

Batum is starting to look extremely questionable for opening day. With the team already intent on developing their younger guys, there is a chance that Batum doesn't get his starting job back should the injury continue to linger. P.J. Washington is a name to consider towards the end of drafts.

Patrick McCaw

SG, Toronto Raptors

Patrick McCaw (knee) missed Tuesday's practice after twisting his knee against the Bulls on Sunday, but the team expects him to be back soon.

Although McCaw seems to win a ring every year, he's likely to start the year in a reserve role where his value is limited. McCaw is not on the standard-league radar.
