James played 32 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Trail Blazers, a game in which the Lakers were without Luka Dončić, Deandre Ayton and Austin Reaves, to name three of the absentees. If James can’t play, the Lakers will be in a challenging spot, especially if Dončić remains out.

Dončić did not play in Saturday’s loss to the Trail Blazers, which prompted Gabe Vincent to move into the starting lineup. Vincent scored three points on 1-of-6 shooting against Portland, and there’s no need to consider streaming him if Dončić remains out.

While Ayton has missed only one game due to injury, Hayes has missed the last three. With both available for Sunday’s game, Maxi Kleber and Drew Timme will likely fall out of the rotation entirely. Ayton should be rostered in standard leagues already, but there isn’t much to gain from rostering Hayes.

Russell has fallen behind Ryan Nembhard and Brandon Williams on the Mavericks’ depth chart, so his availability isn’t impactful in the world of fantasy hoops.

Flagg has missed two straight games, but he’s got a chance to take the court on Monday. If Flagg is forced to miss a third straight game, Naji Marshall could remain in the starting unit. Marshall is worth adding off the waiver wire if he’s still available.

Gafford will be out for a third straight game, which means more minutes for Dwight Powell, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl and Moussa Cisse. None of that trio is particularly appealing for fantasy basketball purposes.

Washington sat out Thursday with an ankle injury, and he’ll miss both legs of Dallas’ Saturday-Sunday back-to-back set due to personal reasons. Expect Caleb Martin to remain in the starting lineup.

With Deandre Ayton and Jaxson Hayes out due to injury, there were going to be opportunities for Timme to contribute. He didn’t start, as Maxi Kleber (11/5/1/1 with one three-pointer) received the nod, but that didn’t keep the third-year forward from having a career night. Timme recorded his first 20-point game as a pro, shooting 75 percent from the field. If Ayton and Hayes can’t play on Sunday against the Raptors, Timme will be worth considering in deep leagues.

Smart limped off the court during the fourth quarter, heading to the locker room briefly before returning to the bench. He had an excellent night before the lower-body injury, with the 25 points being a season-high. There was no announcement from the Lakers regarding Smart’s injury, which may bode well for his availability for Sunday’s game against the Raptors. And if Luka Dončić (groin) can’t play, Smart will be worth streaming.

With no Luka Dončić in the lineup, the Lakers had to rely on James more than they would prefer to in Portland. While he kept turnovers in check, committing only four, the added responsibility made it more challenging for James to get going offensively. He still finished with a complete stat line, and the field-goal percentage was the only issue. The question now is whether LeBron will be available for Sunday’s game against the Raptors.

Already without Austin Reaves, the Lakers won’t have Luka Dončić, Deandre Ayton or Jaxson Hayes for Saturday’s game, either. Vincent and Kleber move into the starting lineup, but neither should be viewed as a must-stream option. Of the two, Vincent offers the higher ceiling for managers who may be desperate to plug someone into their lineups.

Dončić was ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Trail Blazers due to a sore left groin. The good news is that his MRI results were “good” in Redick’s words, and the point guard is considered day-to-day. The Lakers host the Raptors on Sunday, then hit the road for an eight-game trip that begins in Denver on Tuesday.

With Jaxson Hayes already out, the Lakers could ill afford not to have their starting center available for Saturday’s game. Unfortunately, Ayton will not be able to play against the Trail Blazers. Jarred Vanderbilt may move into the starting lineup, and there will also be a need for rotation minutes from Maxi Kleber and even Drew Timme.

The lone negative for Marshall on Saturday was the premature trip he took to the locker room during the fourth quarter. The team said nothing regarding an injury, but that’s something to keep an eye on ahead of Monday’s game against the Knicks. With Cooper Flagg and P.J. Washington missing time due to injury, Marshall has added value as a starter.

Williams has scored at least 18 points in three consecutive games, and he finished Saturday’s victory with his sixth 20-point game of the season. While Ryan Nembhard (seven points, one rebound, four assists and two three-pointers) was the preferred fantasy option earlier this season, Williams has been the superior option recently. He’s worth a look in deep leagues as long as Cooper Flagg (ankle) is out.

Back in the lineup after a two-game absence, it took Christie a little time to get going. But once he did, the Mavericks’ guard produced one of his better performances this season. Christie finished with his fourth 20-point game of the season and was a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. With Cooper Flagg (ankle) joining Anthony Davis on the sidelines, Christie is worth a roll of the dice in deeper leagues.

Thompson came out hot on Saturday, knocking down six three-pointers and scoring 23 points. During the run, he surpassed 17,000 career points and continues to close in on a place in the top 100 in NBA history. Thompson didn’t score after halftime, but the Mavericks didn’t need much from him as they won 138-120. The Mavericks open a four-game Week 14 in New York on Monday.
