Absent from the initial injury report released by the Nets, Porter is considered probable to play on Friday. When MPJ missed Brooklyn’s first two games of 2026, rookie Danny Wolf was moved into the starting lineup. That could be the case if Porter’s status is downgraded on Friday.

Saraf’s continued absence does not affect fantasy basketball, as he has not played consistent rotation minutes this season.

Eason got up a lot of shots on Wednesday, but not a lot of them fell. His biggest near-make came in the closing moments of the game as he almost successfully tapped in a missed Kevin Durant jump shot at the buzzer to give the Rockets the win. Instead, the ball was still in his hand as the horn sounded, and the shot was waived off. Eason still had good fantasy production on the evening, thanks to his team-high and season-high in rebounds. Houston will face Portland again on Friday.

Thompson was one of the Rockets’ most productive offensive performers on Wednesday. On efficient 50-percent shooting, the former fourth-overall pick notched his 14th 20-point game of the season, and fourth in the past five games. He made his usual contributions as a passer, but also hit the glass hard to finish as one of three Houston starters to collect double-digit rebounds. Thompson’s work on the defense end also added to his overall production on the night, leading to a nice night as far as fantasy basketball goes.

On the heels of a game-winning shot against his former employer, the Suns, Durant delivered a fantastic scoring performance on Wednesday in the one-point loss. He tied a season-high in points, despite making just two three-pointers on the night. And with just one stock and no assists, there wasn’t much to the two-time Finals MVP’s final stat line. His scoring was the story in this game.

Clowney’s final stat line was an interesting one. Inefficient shooting, especially from beyond the arc, where he shot 0-of-5, kept him from putting many points on the board. Yet, he tied season-highs in assists and steals along the way to provide some solid fantasy production. His start to 2026 has been a rough one from a three-point shooting standpoint — Clowney is now without a three-pointer in three of the four games he’s appeared in. Once he regains his rhythm, the scoring production should return.

Demin stole the show late with a pair of three-pointers, including one that looked to be the go-ahead basket in overtime before Paolo Banchero delivered the actual game-winning triple just moments later. Demin also led his team in assists and has now scored in double figures in eight of his last nine appearances. As the rookie gets more games under his belt, he continues to impresss. He could be someone worth monitoring in fantasy leagues as the season goes on.

After being stuck in the twenties for six straight games, Porter Jr. utilized eight three-pointers to help him land his first 30-point game in nearly a month. He was efficient inside the arc as well and capitalized on his only couple of free-throw attempts, while also coming up big on the defensive end with a handful of steals. Porter Jr. continues to produce at a high level from a fantasy basketball standpoint in his first season with the Nets, and will look to keep things rolling against the Clippers on Friday.

While Nic Claxton (personal) is available, his minutes restriction keeps Sharpe in the starting lineup for another game. The other change is Williams, who steps in for Terance Mann. While he isn’t a must-roster player, Williams has been more productive than Mann recently.

Adams returned from an ankle injury and started in place of Alperen Sengun (ankle) against the Suns on Monday. The 32-year-old center had eight points and 11 rebounds in 31 minutes. Clint Capela only played nine minutes off the bench so it’s clear the Rockets prefer to rely on Adams with Sengun out.

With the score tied at 97 and the clock winding down, Durant hit a game-winning three-pointer from the right wing with less than one second left in regulation. It was the kind of clutch shot that Durant has become known for over the course of his career, which will one day be enshrined in the Hall of Fame. He’s still a top fantasy player, providing top-15 per game value over the last two weeks. The Rockets will be back on the floor Wednesday against the Trail Blazers.

He also said Şengün will be re-evaluated at the end of this week. If he misses 10-14 days, he’ll miss at least five more games and could miss as many as eight. Steven Adams will start in his place, with Clint Capela filling out the backup center minutes until then.

Adams is set to return after missing the last two games with a right ankle sprain. The 32-year-old center is suddenly of greater importance with Alperen Sengun set to miss two weeks with an ankle injury. Adams is rostered in just seven percent of Yahoo! leagues, but could be worth a look in deeper formats with Sengun sidelined.

Porter came back to haunt his former club by knocking down 8-of-17 shots, including 2-of-6 from beyond the arc, to record his seventh double-double of the season. The 27-year-old playmaking forward didn’t appear impacted at all by a two-game absence earlier this week due to illness. He’s been a revelation in his Brooklyn debut, delivering top-25 overall fantasy value, averaging 25.9 points, 7.6 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.2 blocks through 27 games. The Nets have just three games on tap next week when they host the Magic and Clippers before a road tilt against the Grizzlies.

Clowney played a key role on both ends of the floor for Brooklyn in this one as he poured in eight and 11 points in the first and third quarters, respectively, to help them snap a three-game losing streak. The 21-year-old playmaking forward had little trouble exploiting Denver’s lack of interior defenders and also went 4-of-6 from beyond the arc. He’s been too hit-or-miss to emerge as a reliable fantasy option in shallow leagues, but he’s shown some flashes of big-time all-around upside.

Şengün sprained his right ankle early in Saturday’s loss to the Mavericks and did not return. Who starts in his place likely depends on the availability of Steven Adams (ankle), who is questionable after missing the last two games. He’ll likely start if he can play, with Clint Capela holding onto the role if Adams can’t.

Adams has missed Houston’s last two games with a sprained right ankle. His availability gained importance when Alperen Şengün left Saturday’s loss to the Mavericks after spraining his right ankle just over a minute into the game. If Adams can’t play, Clint Capela would get another start in the middle.

Porter is back after missing Brooklyn’s last two games due to illness. Danny Wolf will likely head to the bench with MPJ available, but managers in deep leagues should consider holding onto the rookie. It isn’t the “silly season” yet, but Wolf will continue to play rotation minutes.

Surprisingly, Thompson has only recorded six double-doubles this season, with Saturday’s being his first since December 15. If Alperen Şengün has to miss time after exiting Saturday’s game with a sprained right ankle, Thompson could receive a boost in the assist category. Over the past two weeks, he has offered top-20 per-game value in eight-cat formats. The Rockets play four games in Week 12.

Saturday’s double-double was Eason’s first since moving into the Rockets’ starting lineup, and he’s capable of producing those stat lines consistently. Depending on the diagnosis for Alperen Şengün, who sprained his ankle during the first quarter of Saturday’s defeat, there may be a greater need for what Eason brings to the table, especially as a rebounder. He’s still rostered in 33 percent of Yahoo! leagues, which is too low for Eason. He should be a popular option for those competing in category leagues going into Week 12.

With Houston losing Alperen Şengün to a sprained right ankle just over a minute into Saturday’s game, Durant was needed to do even more offensively. Despite even more defensive attention, he shot over 50 percent from the field and was a steal shy of a complete stat line. Over the past two weeks, Durant has offered top-15 per-game value in eight-cat formats. The Rockets play four games in Week 12, starting with the Suns on Monday.

Şengün rolled his right ankle within the first two minutes of Saturday’s game and walked back to the locker room shortly thereafter. At halftime, the Rockets announced that he would not return. Clint Capela started the third quarter and could remain in that role if Houston doesn’t have Şengün and Steven Adams.

Claxton remains away from the team for personal reasons, with Sunday’s game being the second that he will miss. Day’Ron Sharpe stepped into the starting lineup for Friday’s loss to the Wizards, logging 30 minutes. Given the workload, he is worth streaming as long as Claxton is unavailable.

Sharpe was productive in his first start of the season. The 24-year-old center stepped up with Nic Claxton (personal) out, scoring 14 points and grabbing nine rebounds. Sharpe also had three assists and filled the stat sheet with two steals and two blocks. After a game like this, there could be more starts in the future for Sharpe.

It was all set up for Clowney on Friday. His 13 field goal attempts with Nic Claxton are a little more than he typically gets, but while the opportunity was there, he simply had an off-night. Clowney missed all eight of his three-point attempts and finished with just eight points in 28 minutes. He was a -12 in the 20-point loss. Clowney and the Nets will look to bounce back Sunday against the Nuggets.

The Nets won’t have Michael Porter Jr. or Nic Claxton for Friday’s game, opening up two spots in the starting lineup.

Due to injuries, Wolf was tabbed to make his first start on Thursday. The rookie forward/center recorded a complete stat line, providing solid value in the assist and steal categories.

Due to injuries, Williams was one of three replacements in the Nets’ starting lineup on Thursday. While the scoring was solid, the steals category is where the former first-round pick stood out. Williams’ five pilfers were a career-high, and he’s recorded at least one in five straight games (11 total). If Michael Porter Jr. remains out, Williams will be worth a look for deep-league managers needing steals, but the offensive production has been inconsistent.

Due to the amount of time he missed with a hamstring injury, Thomas continues to come off the bench. The good news for fantasy managers is that they know he won’t get cheated on the shot attempts when he’s in the game.

While Durant was unable to extend his streak of 30-point games to three, that does not diminish his overall productivity. The Rockets forward dished out a season-high 11 assists, recording his second double-double of the season. Over the past two weeks, Durant has offered top-15 per-game value in eight-cat formats. The Rockets play once more during Week 11, Saturday night in Dallas.

After a two-game absence with a calf injury, Şengün was back in the Rockets’ lineup on Thursday. He recorded an efficient stat line against the rebuilding Nets, but the most critical takeaway for fantasy managers was that Şengün was able to play 34 minutes.

While the Rockets don’t look to Thompson to be a prolific scorer, he has increased his production in recent games. The third-year wing has scored at least 18 points in five of his last six appearances, one reason why he has been close to a top-25 player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks.
