The Celtics will be without Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis for Friday’s game. Joe Mazzulla has decided to use a bigger lineup, starting Kornet and Horford and shifting Tatum to small forward. Kornet and Horford are more valuable as starters, but both are limited to providing deep-league value.

Due to its loaded injury report, the 76ers are using this starting lineup for the first time this season. Yabusele is the “safest” fantasy option of the five, but all will have value due to Philadelphia’s lack of available bodies. Yabusele, Bona and Council will be the most valuable for the rest of the season.

Horford continues to start with Kristaps Porzingis (illness) still sidelined. The Celtics are set to play a back-to-back so don’t expect the 38-year-old power forward to start again Saturday against the Nets. Horford figures to sit out then with Luke Kornet starting unless Porzingis, who was at shootaround Friday, can return.

Friday’s game is the first of two in as many days for the Celtics, who face the Nets on Saturday. Porzingis will miss an eighth straight game as he recovers from a viral illness, meaning Al Horford will get another start as the starter. As for Brown, his absence means more opportunities for Sam Hauser and Payton Pritchard. The latter offers a higher fantasy ceiling.

Tatum missed Monday’s game against Utah, but returned Wednesday against the Thunder. He and White are in the lineup Friday despite being listed as questionable with a knee issue. The Celtics will be without Kristaps Porzingis (illness) and Jaylen Brown (knee).

Oubre joins the many 76ers rotation players who will not play in Friday’s game. Expect to see a lot of Jared Butler, Jeff Dowtin and Ricky Council IV, and Jalen Hood-Schifino will also be available. Butler and Dowtin are worth a roll of the dice in deep leagues.

Reese was initially listed as questionable with a shoulder injury, but will ultimately be available Friday. With Paul George and Justin Edwards already ruled out, the 25-year-old forward could pick up extra minutes as well as possibly move into the starting lineup.

Friday’s game against the Pacers will be the fifth game George has missed due to lingering groin and knee injuries. Based on Nurse’s comments, the 76ers wing will also likely miss Sunday’s game against the Mavericks. If George is ruled out for the rest of the season, players like Kelly Oubre Jr., Quentin Grimes (who’s out on Friday with an illness) and Justin Edwards will have added value during the “silly season.”

Initially questionable for Friday’s game, Grimes will join the 76ers’ lengthy list of absentees. His absence will significantly impact fantasy basketball, as Grimes has been Philadelphia’s most productive scorer recently. Jeff Dowtin and Ricky Council IV should play more minutes, with one likely moving into the starting lineup.

Decimated by injuries, the 76ers have been granted a hardship waiver to sign another player to a 10-day contract. Brissett, who has spent this season with the G League’s Long Island Nets, will get another opportunity to prove himself at the NBA level. Not selected in the 2019 draft, he has played five NBA seasons for the Raptors, Pacers and Celtics.

Porzingis, who has missed Boston’s last seven games with a viral illness, remains questionable for Friday’s game against the Heat. He was also present for shootaround ahead of Wednesday’s loss to the Thunder but did not play. Even if Porzingis is allowed to play against the Heat, fantasy managers should not be surprised if his playing time is restricted due to the time missed. Al Horford has been his replacement in the starting lineup.

Oubre, already recovering from an ankle injury, has been added to Friday’s injury report with a sprained right knee. With Quentin Grimes (illness) also questionable and Tyrese Maxey and Paul George out, the 76ers’ perimeter rotation could be extremely light for Friday’s game. Ricky Council IV, Jeff Dowtin Jr. and Jared Butler would all figure more prominently within the rotation if Oubre and Grimes cannot play.

Grimes is a late addition to the 76ers’ injury report, and an absence would leave the team severely shorthanded on the perimeter. With Tyrese Maxey and Paul George dealing with injuries, Grimes has taken on a starring role within the rotation. Ricky Council IV would be in line for more opportunities if Grimes cannot play against the Pacers.

Both of Boston’s superstar wings are questionable to play against Miami, and it is important to note that this is the first game of a back-to-back, with the second leg against Brooklyn. It is unlikely that both Tatum and Brown play in both games, though sitting out against the tanking Nets feels more likely. Joe Mazzulla could opt to stagger their availability or play both against Miami. It’s unclear at this point, but Sam Hauser would likely move into the starting unit if one or both miss a game. Jordan Walsh and Baylor Scheierman would also be in line for more minutes.

White hasn’t missed a game since January, but he could start falling victim to “rest days” that are listed with actual injuries. It is unlikely that White plays both legs of this back-to-back, but Saturday’s game against the Nets seems like the more likely team for Boston to have him nurse this knee ailment. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are also questionable, so there should be plenty of extra minutes for Sam Hauser and Payton Pritchard.

Porzingis was at shootaround ahead of Wednesday’s game but wasn’t able to play through the illness, which was his seventh-straight absence. Al Horford would likely get another start if Porzingis remains out. Friday’s game is the first night of a back-to-back for Boston, and Joe Mazzulla could stagger the availability of his centers. The only chance Luke Kornet will have at moving into the starting unit is if both Porzingis and Horford are ruled out for a game. With Horford probable on Friday, Saturday’s game against the Nets will be a better opportunity for Kornet.

Horford should be able to suit up once again after recording a double-double on Wednesday. Kristaps Porzingis (illness) is questionable, and his status will be a big factor in whether or not Horford starts. This will be the first night of a back-to-back for Boston, so Horford will likely sit out against Brooklyn on Saturday. That would allow Luke Kornet to start, unless Boston staggers the availability of Horford and Porzingis.

Drummond missed time earlier this season with an injury to the same toe, and now it may keep him out of Philadelphia’s next game. Guerschon Yabusele is set to return after a one-game absence, though Adem Bona should still be in line to play extra minutes if Drummond is sidelined.

Yabusele will be back after missing Wednesday’s game, and he should immediately return to the starting unit.

Edwards has been a consistent starter for Philadelphia for well over a month now, but that hasn’t led to significant fantasy contributions.

However, if Andre Drummond (toe) is also out, Ricky Council IV could slide in as a starter as well.

George has missed four straight games and five of Philly’s last six, and he’s only appeared in 41 games for the Sixers this season. It’s been a disappointing campaign for George, and with Philly’s playoff hopes essentially sunk, he could be shutdown for the remainder of the 2024-25 season. Quentin Grimes has been balling, and Grimes should continue to see plenty of run and offensive focus moving forward.

Porzingis announced on social media on Tuesday that he is dealing with “a viral illness” that the Celtics “haven’t been able to filly identify yet.” That isn’t a great sign, and there is a chance he misses a seventh-straight game when they take on OKC.

Council IV’s role with Philadelphia hasn’t been consistent, but he has had some solid performances when he has been given the opportunity. This was another one of those games, and he set a new season-high for scoring in 29 minutes off the bench. Philly’s bench accounted for 53 of their 123 points, with Jeff Dowtin Jr. (17) and Adem Bona (12) also scoring in double figures. Council IV will certainly have a chance to impact fantasy basketball during “silly season”, and he certainly holds value in dynasty formats.

Philadelphia was more shorthanded than ever on Monday, and Grimes continued to lead the offense. Over their last six games, Grimes has averaged 25.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.8 assists, two steals and 3.2 three-pointers per game while shooting 54.7 percent from the floor. Grimes has been an incredible addition for Philly, and he should get the chance to continue to prove his worth over the final month of the season. Rostered in just under half of Yahoo! leagues, he should be added everywhere he is available.

Butler started for the second time since being traded to Philadelphia, and he was able to chip in solid value in assists. He dished out nine assists in his previous start this season, and when he played a significant role in Washington, he was able to dish out plenty of dimes. It seems as though the 76ers have shifted their focus towards the lottery, which means that Butler could hold plenty of value over the final month of the year, especially for managers that are looking for assists.

With Kelly Oubre Jr. (ankle) and Andre Drummond (illness) both sidelined, Walker IV was able to start for the first time this season. He was able to contribute decent value, but a poor shooting night limited his overall impact in an increased role. It was also a bit of a letdown after he had 25 points, 11 rebounds and five assists in Philadelphia’s previous game. If they continue to deal with injuries in Toronto on Wednesday, Walker IV may continue to hold some value as a streaming option, though he will hopefully shoot the ball better in that one.

White has had at least six assists in all three games since going off for 41 points against the Trail Blazers on March 5. The 30-year-old point guard was hardly efficient shooting the ball against the Jazz Monday. Still, White was making plays on offensive with 10 assists. He was just five rebounds away from a triple-double. White has provided top-10 fantasy value since the All-Star break.

Hauser was a viable streaming option with Jayson Tatum, Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford all out Monday. The 27-year-old small forward came through with a huge scoring game.

Volume was the name of the game for Tatum in this one, as he shot just 12-of-28 from the floor, including 6-of-16 from beyond the arc. He cashed 10-of-12 shots from the charity stripe on his way to a monster scoring effort. Saturday’s performance marks his third game with 35 or more points across his last four, and his second 40-point effort in that span. Tatum gets a phenomenal chance to keep up his hot scoring when the Celtics host the Jazz on Monday.
