Welcome to the daily updates and injury news article. We'll try and update it right up to line-up locks with as much information as comes across our desks. Let's get to it!
Last night's picks can be found here, so you can wrap your mind around what you need to be looking at before lineups lock tonight.
By the way - we keep our projection system updated with all of the changes as they occur throughout the day right up until lineup lock. Every day. If you want access to that system so you can cut out a lot of the research element, click the button below!
This is a huge loss for the Heat, who need everyone they can get right now. They are on a 12 game winning streak and have a great chance to extend it against the Nets. James Johnson and Goran Dragic should see the biggest bumps, and I love both of them in all formats. Rodney McGruder could also see a bump, though I won't touch him outside of large field tournaments.
Thad has already missed a few games, and nobody has really taken advantage. Lavoy Allen had 1 good game, but 2 stinkers right after. I think it solidifies Turner's minutes, and makes him an elite cash game play.
Z-bo is a huge force for these Grizzlies, and one they really can't afford. Jamychal Green and Marc Gasol will pick up a few more minutes and shots. Both of them can be played against the Warriors.
Pretty simple here. If Butler plays, the whole situation is pretty cloudy and uninteresting. If Butler is out, Wade is the guy who we have the most interest in. He should see a full allotment of minutes and has been great this year with Wade out.
Millsap may not be the most popular option tonight and that's a bonus. He comes in as the top guy at PF and should be in for a fantastic night against the Kings. The Kings have ranked bottom 10 against both centers and power forwards, and Millsap has done well against them in the past. The Hawks have been feeding Millsap on offense and has been producing. This game with the Kings figures to be played pretty fast, and will certainly be competitive. Some may worry about him get into foul trouble, but I think Howard covers Cousins.
James Johnson gets a huge bump with Dion Waiters being ruled out, as he should see the ball quite a lot more coming off the bench. Johnson has been playing extremely well for the Heat lately, and this match-up is ideal. The Nets play at the fastest pace in the NBA, which plays right into Johnson's game. He is a guy who excels in fast, transition filled games. This should be one where the Heat see a huge uptick in possessions and I wouldn't be surprised to see Johnson hit 40 fantasy points. Johnson is a safe option for both cash games and tournaments.
