Dwight Powell

PF, Dallas Mavericks

Dwight Powell (left hamstring strain) went through the non-contact portions of Monday's practice, per Rick Carlisle.

Fantasy managers should prepare to be without Powell for the season opener, though it's possible that he plays before going through a full practice. Assuming he isn't out for much longer, Powell makes for a quality late-middle round selection in any remaining fantasy drafts. Maxi Kleber and Boban Marjanovic will fill his minutes in the meantime, with Kleber already worth a late-round selection on his own merit.

Jahlil Okafor

C, New Orleans Pelicans

Jahlil Okafor (left ankle sprain) is questionable to play on Thursday.

Okafor is battling with Jaxson Hayes for playing time behind Derrick Favors at this point, and while he's been a nice surprise in terms of effectiveness this move shouldn't impact many fantasy leagues. Currently Jah is returning numbers that put him on the map in 14-16-teamers but he's not an inspiring option unless injuries strike.

Josh Hart

SG, New Orleans Pelicans

Josh Hart (left ankle sprain, left knee sprain) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game.

Hart has capitalized on New Orleans' early season injuries and is posting surprising top-65 value so far this season, so this news should impact most leagues. Hopefully he isn't out long. E'Twaun Moore, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Frank Jackson should see more run on the wings for as long as Hart is out.

Paul George

SF, Los Angeles Clippers

Paul George (shoulders) has been ruled out on Wednesday.

George was expected to return on the Clippers' current road trip, which means that he has a good chance to play tomorrow night. The buy-low opportunities are just about finished with, while your sell-high window on the other Clippers (excluding Kawhi Leonard and Montrezl Harrell) is almost shut too.

Kevin Huerter

SG, Atlanta Hawks

The Hawks have sent Kevin Huerter (left shoulder) back to Atlanta so team doctors can assess the results of his MRI.

Huerter has been ruled out of Thursday's game and it sounds like he could miss more beyond that. He had just gotten back into form on the court, so this is a tough break for Huerter and his fantasy managers. He's a must-own player in standard leagues when healthy, but if there's a can't-miss free agent sitting out there then you'll have a tough choice to make. We'd advise waiting for a timetable if possible.

Omari Spellman

PF, Golden State Warriors

Omari Spellman (left ankle sprain) is available for Wednesday's game with the Lakers.

Spellman missed Monday's game and wasn't able to practice on Tuesday, but he'll be ready if called upon tonight. With Draymond Green back in action, Spellman is a complete roll of the dice. He and Marquese Chriss figure to be jockeying for a rotation spot on most nights.

Rodney Hood

SG, Portland Trail Blazers

Rodney Hood (back spasms) is probable to play on Wednesday.

Hood was also listed probable on Tuesday but ended up sitting out, so fantasy managers will need to check back for an update. He's returning late-round value and isn't a must-own player in 12-teamers given his moderate upside, but he is trending in the right direction if you'd usually plug him into lineups.

Hassan Whiteside

C, Portland Trail Blazers

Hassan Whiteside (right foot sprain) is probable for Wednesday's showdown with the Raptors.

Whiteside's been able to play through the injury of late and could be in line for a big rebounding game against a thin Toronto frontcourt. Get him in your lineups if you've got him.

Danuel House

PF, Houston Rockets

Danuel House (back) will not play on Wednesday and Ben McLemore will start in his place.

The Rockets have extremely limited depth so McLemore is getting a big chance to earn more work down the line here. He's on the deep-league radar as a potential streamer, though House is said to be day-to-day going forward. House should be held in all formats.

Furkan Korkmaz

SG, Philadelphia Sixers

Furkan Korkmaz will remain in the starting lineup on Wednesday night.

Korkmaz started for the resting Al Horford on Tuesday and will start in place of the resting (technically a knee designation) Joel Embiid in this one. He's had some hot shooting nights so given Korkmaz a look if you need threes and points in the short term.

Trey Burke

PG, Philadelphia Sixers

Trey Burke (calf tightness) will play on Wednesday night.

Burke sat out against the Cavs on Tuesday, so it's good to know he isn't dealing with a serious injury. With Ben Simmons back, Burke doesn't figure to play much at all, healthy or otherwise.
