Vlatko Cancar

SF, Denver Nuggets

Vlatko Cancar (ankle) hurt his ankle during Sunday's practice.

The ankle injury may put his availability in question for opening night. An update should be coming out with more information regarding the injury, but Cancar should not be on any draft boards regardless.

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.

Daniel Theis

PF, Boston Celtics

Daniel Theis (sprained finger, right hand) will not suit up on Wednesday.

Theis was given a chance to suit up by Brad Stevens but it always seemed unlikely given his initial doubtful tag. With Robert Williams also out we should see lots of Enes Kanter and Grant Williams up front tonight.

Robert Williams III

C-F, Boston Celtics

Robert Williams (sore ankle) will miss Wednesday's game against the Wizards.

Williams is a surprise scratch and this leaves Boston shorthanded up front with Daniel Theis also out. The sophomore center is a great source of blocks and is actually churning out top-115/85 numbers in 16.0 mpg as a result, but his narrow lane of production doesn't make him a fit for all standard-league managers.

Mitchell Robinson

C, New York Knicks

Mitchell Robinson (concussion) is questionable for Thursday's game.

Robinson has missed the last two games, and there's still no update about him being cleared to practice though this condition upgrade is a positive step. Taj Gibson might fall out of the rotation again when Robinson is ready to go, though you can never be sure in New York.
