According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, Landry Shamet (shoulder) will be re-evaluated in four weeks.

Shamet sustained the injury in Saturday’s loss to Orlando, and he’ll be out through at least late December. Shamet’s play time and production were trending up prior to his injury, and his absence will free up additional playing time for Miles McBride and Jordan Clarkson.

When asked in a Wednesday interview whether he’d prefer to return on Friday against the Lakers or Saturday against the Clippers, Anthony Davis (calf) said, “That’s a real question? You know what game I want to play.”

“But we’ll see,” Davis went on to say. “We’ll have a conversation and see what makes the most sense with the medical and coaching staff.” Davis is surely motivated to take the court against his former team, and fantasy managers should keep an eye on his status leading up to Friday’s tip-off. It’s unclear if Davis will play in both legs of Dallas’ back-to-back set, but if he plays Friday, he should be considered questionable on Saturday.

Mitchell Robinson (illness) is not on the injury report for Wednesday’s game against the Hornets.

Robinson did not play in Monday’s win over the Nets due to illness. While he may return to the starting lineup on Wednesday, with Miles McBride or Josh Hart heading to the bench, the Knicks’ center has struggled to provide reliable fantasy value when available.

Dereck Lively II (foot) will miss the next three games.

Following a Marc Stein report that Lively was feared to miss extended time with a foot injury, the Mavericks provided a formal update on the 21-year-old center’s health. Lively is set to miss the team’s upcoming three games and another update will be provided in 7-10 days. Until then, Daniel Gafford will start at center for Dallas.

NBA Insider Marc Stein reports Dereck Lively II (knee) is feared to miss extended time.

NBA Insider Marc Stein reports Dereck Lively II (foot) is feared to miss extended time.

Lively was held out of Monday’s loss to the Heat with right foot injury management after having offseason foot surgery. Now the 21-year-old center is feared to miss an extended portion of the season, according to Stein. Daniel Gafford will continue to start at center with Lively out and Anthony Davis is due back soon to strengthen the frontcourt.

NBA Insider Marc Stein reports Anthony Davis (calf) is scheduled to practice on Wednesday.

Davis has been out since the end of October with a calf injury. The 32-year-old power forward is closing in on a return with his participation in practice being a necessary hurdle he has to clear. The Mavericks play the Lakers in Los Angeles on Friday and Davis’ motivations to be available for that game should be obvious, though he remains without a firm timetable for return.

Daniel Gafford added 11 points (4-of-9 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), 11 rebounds, one steal and two blocks in the loss to the Heat on Monday.

Gafford was productive on the offense and defensive glass en route to recording a team-high in rebounds on Monday. And despite an unspectacular shooting percentage, he made his way into double figures as a scorer en route to collecting his first double-double of the season. Anthony Davis’ return is likely near, which could have implications for Gafford’s production going forward. Nonetheless, he was effective on Monday.

Cooper Flagg finished Monday’s loss to the Heat with 12 points (5-of-14 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), seven rebounds, three assists and two steals.

Flagg’s performance on Monday was unspectacular. He shot inefficiently from the field, failed to register a make from beyond the arc, and finished with three assists to three turnovers. He’s struggled with his shooting in his two games since notching a career-high 29 points, but has remained solid on the glass. The Mavericks, who have lost four of their past five games, could benefit from more production from Flagg as the rookie continues to get more reps under his belt.

P.J. Washington added 27 points (10-of-20 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), eight rebounds, one assist, two blocks and three three-pointers in Monday’s loss to the Heat.

Washington was Dallas’ most productive player on Monday. He was the only one to score at least 20 points, and was one of three players on Dallas to pour in three makes from beyond the arc. The veteran forward also excelled on defense, accounting for nearly half of the team’s blocks. With Anthony Davis’ return seemingly near, it’ll be interesting to see whether Washington’s performance is affected. He’s averaging 22.0 points, 8.3 rebounds and 3.0 threes over the past three games.

Mikal Bridges amassed 16 points (6-of-11 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, four assists, two steals, one block and two three-pointers in Monday’s win over the Nets.

After shooting 1-of-5 from the field in the first half, Bridges shot 4-of-6 and scored 12 points in the third quarter. He finished with another complete stat line and continues to exceed expectations, providing first-round value in nine-cat formats. Add in his availability, which has never been an issue, and Bridges has been one of the most valuable players in fantasy basketball to this point in the season.

Josh Hart accounted for seven points (3-of-8 FGs, 0-of-1 FTs), 12 rebounds, seven assists, two steals, two blocks and one three-pointer in Monday’s win over the Nets.

With Landry Shamet (shoulder) joining OG Anunoby (hamstring) on the sideline, Hart made his first start of the season on Monday. And he did “Josh Hart” things in Brooklyn, recording a solid stat line that was only lacking in points and field-goal percentage. If Hart remains in the starting five, he’s capable of providing value on par with his excellent 2024-25 campaign. More should be learned about the severity of Shamet’s shoulder injury in the coming days.

Jalen Brunson tallied 27 points (10-of-19 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), three rebounds, three assists, one steal and four three-pointers in Monday’s win over the Nets.

While his overall stat line may have been pedestrian by his standards, Brunson took advantage of a subpar opponent to produce an efficient scoring night. He shot over 50 percent from the field and has tallied at least 27 points in five straight games. Over the past two weeks, Brunson has been a top-25 player in nine-cat formats, according to Basketball Monster. With games against the Hornets and Bucks to end Week 6, he’s capable of pushing his season-long value into the top-25.

Karl-Anthony Towns finished Monday’s win over the Nets with 37 points (14-of-20 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), 12 rebounds, three assists, one steal, two blocks and three three-pointers.

After struggling in Saturday’s loss to the Magic, Towns was much better in the penultimate game of the Knicks’ five-game road trip. He recorded his third 30-point double-double of the season, with the 37 points being two shy of his high. Just as importantly for those who have Towns rostered, his fingerprints were all over Monday’s game. Sure, the opposition wasn’t the best, but nights like Monday are why KAT remains one of the top frontcourt players in fantasy basketball. Wednesday’s game against the Hornets could potentially be another good matchup for Towns.

Jalen Brunson, Miles McBride, Mikal Bridges, Josh Hart and Karl-Anthony Towns will start Monday’s game against the Nets.

Already without OG Anunoby, the Knicks won’t have Landry Shamet or Mitchell Robinson for Monday’s game, either. As a result, McBride and Hart move into the starting lineup. Due to an illness, the former did not play in Saturday’s loss to the Magic, despite the Knicks never officially ruling him out. McBride has a clean bill of health now and is worth a look in deep leagues. Hart should already be rostered in most 12-team leagues.

Brandon Williams (back) is available for Monday’s game against the Heat.

Williams is officially available after the Mavericks listed him as questionable on the initial injury report. He’ll handle the starting point guard duties, with D’Angelo Russell serving as the primary backup. Ryan Nembhard (knee) is also available, but the rookie is unlikely to get the run needed to merit being rostered in redraft leagues.

Ryan Nembhard (knee) is available for Monday’s game against the Heat.

Nembhard is available after a five-game absence with a sprained left knee. D’Angelo Russell (illness) is also available, so the rookie guard is unlikely to get the opportunities needed to impact fantasy basketball. However, Nembhard could crack the rotation if Brandon Williams (back) can’t go. Dallas’ starting point guard is a game-time decision.

Anthony Davis (calf) will not play on Monday against the Heat.

Monday’s absence will mark the 14th straight missed game for Davis, as he continues to work his way back from a calf injury. The Mavericks have posted a 3-10 record since the injury and continue to have poor health luck to begin the season. Naji Marshall and P.J. Washington are two forwards who could continue to see increased opportunities with Davis out of the lineup. According to Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd, there’s hope that Davis will be able to practice on Wednesday.

Mitchell Robinson (illness) is out for Monday’s game against the Nets.

Added to the Knicks’ injury report late Monday morning, Robinson is now out. With Landry Shamet (shoulder) injured, either Miles McBride or Josh Hart should move into the starting lineup. Hart offers solid 12-team league value whether he starts or comes off the bench, while McBride’s inconsistent scoring makes him challenging to trust fully.

Mitchell Robinson (illness) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Nets.

Robinson popped up on the injury report with an illness on Monday morning, putting his status in doubt for the game against the Nets. The 27-year-old center will have the afternoon to recover from his illness. Miles McBride and Josh Hart are candidates to move into the starting lineup if Robinson is ultimately ruled out.

Landry Shamet (shoulder) is out for Monday’s game against the Nets.

Shamet injured his right shoulder during Saturday’s loss to the Magic. The good news is that the Knicks are listing the injury as a sprain, as he dislocated the same shoulder during the 2024-25 preseason. Mohamed Diawara and Tyler Kolek played rotation minutes on Saturday, but neither is in a position to provide tangible fantasy value.

Ryan Nembhard (knee) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Heat.

Nembhard has missed Dallas’s last five games with a sprained left knee. His absence has not affected fantasy basketball, as rotation minutes have not been guaranteed for the rookie guard. Nembhard has appeared in five games this season with a high of 16 minutes.

Brandon Williams (back) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Heat.

Williams is dealing with lower back tightness, which is why he appears on the injury report. D’Angelo Russell (illness) is available, so he can absorb some of the minutes that would usually go to Williams if he cannot play. In this scenario, D’Lo would be worth picking up in deep leagues.

D’Angelo Russell (illness) is not on the injury report for Monday’s game against the Heat.

Russell sat out Saturday’s loss to the Grizzlies, with his playing time divvied up among multiple reserves due to Jaden Hardy struggling in his 12 minutes on the floor. Hardy will likely fall out of the rotation entirely on Monday, unless starting guard Brandon Williams can’t play. He’s questionable due to lower back tightness.

Anthony Davis (calf) is doubtful for Monday’s game against the Heat.

Davis is expected to be re-evaluated early this upcoming week, so a return could occur soon. However, that isn’t guaranteed. The doubtful tag for Monday suggests he won’t be available to play against the Heat. With Davis out, P.J. Washington and Naji Marshall are worth a look in deeper fantasy leagues and some standard leagues as well.

Jalen Brunson went off for 33 points (12-of-21 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), three rebounds and 11 assists over 36 minutes during Saturday’s loss to the Magic.

Brunson — who ranks tied for 10th in the NBA at 28.4 points per game this season — came out blazing hot, knocking down eight of his first 13 shots and piling up a game-high 23 points by halftime. He managed just eight attempts after the break as Orlando seized control late in the third quarter and never let New York back into it. He’ll carry the momentum into a tasty matchup on Monday against the defensively-challenged Nets as the Knicks kick off a four-game week.

Karl Anthony Towns recorded 24 points (6-of-14 FGs, 10-of-11 FTs), eight rebounds and three assists over 37 minutes during Saturday’s loss to the Magic.

Towns lived at the foul line in this one — nearly half of his 24 points came at the stripe — but even his impressive second-half surge wasn’t enough to keep New York afloat against an unexpected Magic scoring avalanche. The 30-year-old poured in 18 of his 24 after the break, going 4-of-7 from the field and drawing eight free throws during that stretch. He’ll aim to keep the momentum going when the Knicks kick off a four-game week on Monday against the lowly Nets.

PJ Washington (back) finished Saturday’s loss to the Grizzlies with 15 points (7-of-17 FGs, 0-of-1 FTs), eight rebounds, four assists, one steal, two blocks and one three-pointer.

Washington appeared to tweak something in his lower back on a shot attempt with just under five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter of Saturday’s game, immediately heading back to the locker room after exiting. The good news is that he was back on the bench for the finish. With Anthony Davis (calf) essentially out indefinitely, Washington has added value, even if his game isn’t exactly “fantasy-friendly.” Hopefully, his name won’t show up on the injury report for Monday’s game against the Heat.

Brandon Williams accounted for 18 points (6-of-11 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), three rebounds, four assists, one steal and two three-pointers in Saturday’s loss to the Grizzlies.

With D’Angelo Russell (illness) ruled out, Williams surpassed the 30-minute mark for the first time in five games. He had a good night, shooting over 50 percent from the field and recording everything but a blocked shot in the 102-96 defeat. Rostered in 18 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Williams is ranked just outside the top-100 in eight-cat formats. He doesn’t have the highest ceiling, but Williams is worth a roll of the dice as long as he continues to start. Dallas plays three games in Week 6, beginning with the Heat on Monday.

Klay Thompson shot 7-of-17 from the field and 2-of-2 from the foul line in Saturday’s loss to the Grizzlies, scoring 22 points with one rebound and six three-pointers.

Things got a bit heated during and after Saturday’s game, but that may have done Thompson some good. He recorded his first 20-point game of the season against the Grizzlies and hit a season-high six three-pointers. Thompson didn’t provide value in any other categories, a reminder that he doesn’t offer much in fantasy basketball beyond being a specialist at this stage in his career. The ceiling is slightly higher due to Dallas’ many injuries, but Klay should not be rostered in most leagues.

D’Angelo Russell (illness) is out for Saturday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Russell has been downgraded from questionable to out, leaving the Mavericks light on options at point guard. Brandon Williams’ status as the starter is unchanged, but there will be more minutes available to Jaden Hardy. Hardy is not worth the streaming risk, even with the increased playing time.

Landry Shamet (shoulder) will not return to Saturday’s game against the Magic.

Shamet injured his right shoulder when he ran into a Wendell Carter Jr. screen. This is the same shoulder he dislocated during the 2024-25 preseason, spending months on the shelf before joining the Knicks mid-season. With Miles McBride now questionable due to an illness, the Knicks have called on Tyler Kolek and Mohamed Diawara to play rotation minutes off the bench.

Miles McBride (illness) is available for Saturday’s game against the Magic.

Initially questionable for Saturday’s game, McBride will be available to provide additional depth on the perimeter. He’s only worth streaming when inserted into the starting lineup, especially with Jalen Brunson being available.

Ryan Nembhard (knee) is doubtful for Saturday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Less than a week after Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd said he hoped the rookie would only be out for two to three weeks, Nembhard is doubtful for Saturday night. If he’s somehow cleared to play, the point guard is unlikely to get the minutes needed to impact fantasy basketball. Leave Nembhard on the waiver wire.

D’Angelo Russell (illness) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Russell missed Friday’s win over the Pelicans with an illness. Jaden Hardy had 11 points in 14 minutes off the bench and could get even more of an opportunity against the Grizzlies on Saturday if Russell were to be out again. Hardy still isn’t worth the risk to stream just yet.

Dereck Lively II (knee) is out for Saturday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Lively had four points in 18 minutes in the Mavericks’ win over the Pelicans on Friday night. The 21-year-old center is going to miss the second game of a back-to-back against the Grizzlies on Saturday for injury management reasons. Daniel Gafford will start at center with Lively out.

Miles McBride (illness) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Magic.

McBride popped up on the injury report as questionable with an illness mere hours before game-time against the Magic on Saturday. Typically, that doesn’t bode well for players in McBride’s situation. McBride doesn’t have a path towards much fantasy value with Jalen Brunson back from an ankle injury anyway.

Cooper Flagg exploded for a career-high 29 points (12-of-19 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), seven rebounds, five assists and two steals over 32 minutes to lead the Mavericks to a 118-115 win over the Pelicans.

This wound up being a thrilling showdown between the next generation of up-and-coming stars for a pair of cellar-dwelling Western Conference squads with Flagg serving as the Mavericks’ primary offensive catalyst throughout the night. The 18-year-old prodigy showed zero signs of rust following a one-game absence due to illness earlier this week, knocking down 12 of 15 shots from inside three-point range, while routinely getting into the paint to take advantage of his size, athleticism and shot-creating ability. He was especially clutch in the late stages of this one, scoring 21 of his points in the second-half. He’s in the midst of an extremely strong stretch, averaging just under 22 points per-game over his last three contests, delivering fourth-round value for fantasy purposes during that span.

P.J. Washington accumulated 24 points (8-of-14 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), nine rebounds, one assist, one steal and three blocks over 37 minutes in Friday’s victory over the Pelicans.

With less than one week until Thanksgiving, Washington set the table early with a stat sheet-stuffing performance for fantasy managers as he drained five three-pointers and gobbled up nine rebounds, falling just shy of his third double-double of the season. The 27-year-old sharpshooter did most of his damage in the early stages of this one as he notched 14 points in the first half, but he managed to come up with a clutch rebound in the final seconds to deny the Pelicans any opportunity to hoist a potential game-tying shot at the buzzer.

Max Christie went off for a season-high 23 points (7-of-12 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), three rebounds, one steal and one block over 31 minutes during Friday’s win over the Pelicans.

Christie knocked down five of nine shots, including three from downtown, as part of a 17-point second-half eruption to power Dallas to a comeback win. He drained a pair of free throws in the closing seconds to give the Mavericks a three-point advantage which they didn’t relinquish. The 22-year-old guard is averaging a career-high 5.8 three-point attempts through 17 games, shooting an absurdly high 46.9 percent so far. There’s some regression looming, but he’s going to have plenty of opportunities for the injury-depleted Mavericks in the coming months.

D’Angelo Russell (illness) is out for Friday’s game against the Pelicans.

Initially questionable for Friday’s game, Russell will not be available. Brandon Williams’ status as the starting point guard does not change, but D’Lo being out should result in more minutes for fellow reserve Jaden Hardy. Hardy is not worth the streaming risk in this role.

Dereck Lively II (knee) is available for Friday’s game against the Pelicans.

Lively had four points and 10 rebounds in 18 minutes in Wednesday’s game against the Knicks. The 21-year-old center has been active for three of the last four Mavericks games following his return from a right knee injury. Lively and Daniel Gafford handle the center duties against the Pelicans on Friday.

D’Angelo Russell (illness) is questionable for Friday’s matchup with the Pelicans.

This is a new illness for D’Lo, and his appearance on the injury report so late on a Friday means he should be considered a game-time call. Brandon Williams has started each of Dallas’ last six games and played well, but Russell’s absence could free up some additional playing time for Jaden Hardy off the bench.

Caleb Martin (illness) is available for Friday’s game against the Pelicans.

Martin did not play in Wednesday’s loss to the Knicks, which factored into fellow reserve Naji Marshall logging 34 minutes. Martin hasn’t done enough to be rostered in fantasy leagues, but he may siphon a few minutes away from the more impactful Marshall.

Cooper Flagg (illness) is off the injury report for Friday’s game against the Pelicans.

Flagg is good to go after missing Wednesday’s loss to the Knicks. His return means Klay Thompson will head back to the bench after hitting three three-pointers and scoring 13 points. Thompson is rostered in only 15 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and for good reason, as he has struggled thus far.

Hoops Hype’s Michael Scotto reports that the Pacers plan to sign guard Garrison Mathews with a hardship exception.

Mathews was with the Knicks in training camp before being waived on October 18. He has averaged 6.5 points on 38.2 percent shooting from beyond the arc in his career and should fill a minor role off the Pacers’ bench.

Mikal Bridges accounted for 16 points (7-of-13 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, six assists, three steals, two blocks and one three-pointer in Wednesday’s win over the Mavericks.

Bridges only shot 1-of-5 from deep on Wednesday, but the overall production remained solid for the versatile wing. Having entered the season with a Yahoo! ADP in the high-70s, Bridges is providing first-round value in nine-cat formats and second-round value in eight-cat. Thus far, he has been one of the best value picks in fantasy basketball, and there’s no reason to assume that will change anytime soon. Bridges managers can consider selling high, but that may not be a good idea due to his production and availability.

Josh Hart tallied 16 points (5-of-10 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), 10 rebounds, five assists, one steal, one block and three three-pointers in Wednesday’s win over the Mavericks.

After a slow start to the season due to back and finger injuries, Hart has looked more comfortable recently. He recorded his third double-double on Wednesday and has been a seventh-round player in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. While he isn’t starting for the injured OG Anunoby, the starter’s absence does raise Hart’s fantasy ceiling. While New York plays only one more game in Week 5, it will play four in Week 6. Hart is worth adding ahead of Saturday’s game against Orlando.

Karl-Anthony Towns finished Wednesday’s win over the Mavericks with 18 points (6-of-16 FGs, 5-of-9 FTs), 14 rebounds, six assists, two steals and one three-pointer.

Towns recorded another double-double on Wednesday, salvaging what was a rather ordinary night by his standards. He was 1-of-6 from three and missed four free throws, so the percentages took a beating. The good news for Towns managers is that the rebounds, assists and steals were present, so all wasn’t lost from a value standpoint. He’ll look to clean up the shooting when the Knicks visit Orlando on Saturday.

Jalen Brunson (ankle) finished Wednesday’s win over the Mavericks with 28 points (11-of-23 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), three rebounds, five assists, one steal, one block and two three-pointers

Back in the Knicks’ lineup after missing two games with a sprained ankle, Brunson made up for lost time with a solid effort to help New York pick up its first road win of the season. The foul shooting was a bit off, but the overall line will undoubtedly please those who have Brunson rostered. Just as encouraging is that he played 35 minutes without any flare-ups. Miles McBride returned to the bench on Wednesday, finishing with 11 points, two assists, two blocks and three three-pointers. With Brunson available, McBride isn’t worth holding onto in most fantasy leagues.

Jalen Brunson (ankle), Landry Shamet, Mikal Bridges, Karl-Anthony Towns and Mitchell Robinson will start Wednesday’s game against the Mavericks.

Brunson is back in the lineup after a two-game absence, giving the Knicks a welcome boost on the offensive end of the floor. His return means Miles McBride will come off the bench, which considerably lowers his fantasy ceiling. New York’s other four starters are unchanged, with Shamet continuing to fill in for the injured OG Anunoby.

Jalen Brunson (ankle) was seen at shootaround ahead of Wednesday’s game against the Mavericks.

This isn’t a guarantee that Brunson will play, but after being listed as questionable, this is a positive sign. Brunson has missed the Knicks’ last two games, which has allowed Miles McBride to fill in as a starter. If Brunson is back, McBride will return to play his typical role off the bench.

Jalen Brunson (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Mavericks.

Injured during a November 12 loss to the Magic, Brunson has missed New York’s last two games. However, he did go through a workout before Monday’s loss to the Heat and may be available on Wednesday. Miles McBride has started the last two games and played well enough to be streamed if Brunson remains out.

Josh Hart produced 14 points (6-of-11 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, nine assists, two steals and one blocked shot in Monday’s loss to the Heat.

Hart finished one assist shy of a double-double, and that’s a category where he can provide added value while the Knicks await Jalen Brunson’s return from a sprained ankle. Hart’s averages have decreased due to his being moved to the bench, with the forward ranked outside the top-150 in nine-cat formats. However, Hart has been a top-100 player over the past two weeks. That’s why he is still rostered in 76 percent of Yahoo! leagues.

Miles McBride shot 10-of-23 from the field and 0-of-1 from the foul line in Monday’s loss to the Heat, scoring 25 points with five rebounds and five three-pointers.

Despite joining his teammates in Miami late for personal reasons, McBride had one of his best games of the season on Monday. After totaling 27 points on 35.7 percent shooting in his previous four appearances, Deuce recorded his first 20-point game of the season. With Jalen Brunson (ankle) out, it would have been nice to get some assist production from McBride, but the points, rebounds, and three-pointers were good. With OG Anunoby also out, McBride should remain a starter until those two return.

Mikal Bridges accounted for 23 points (9-of-14 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), three rebounds, four assists, two steals, four blocks and two three-pointers in Monday’s loss to the Heat.

Bridges continues to provide elite category-league value, recording another complete stat line on Monday. With Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby out due to injury, the Knicks will need even more production from Bridges in the short term. With Monday’s performance, he’s now providing top-10 per-game value in nine-cat formats, according to Basketball Monster. Bridges is a “sell high” candidate, but he’s shown no signs of slowing down.

Karl-Anthony Towns finished Monday’s loss to the Heat with 22 points (7-of-19 FGs, 7-of-7 FTs), 15 rebounds, two assists, one steal, one block and one three-pointer.

Towns extended his double-double streak to nine games on Monday, but this was not his best performance by a long shot. The Knicks forward/center was 1-of-7 from beyond the arc and never seemed to establish a rhythm offensively. Towns did manage to clear 20 points and record a complete stat line, so all wasn’t lost for those who have him rostered. He’ll look to bounce back on Wednesday when the Knicks visit the Mavericks.

Miles McBride, Landry Shamet, Mikal Bridges, Karl-Anthony Towns and Mitchell Robinson will start Monday’s game against the Heat.

McBride has rejoined the Knicks after not traveling to Miami with the team for personal reasons, and he’ll continue to start in place of the injured Jalen Brunson. Also in the starting lineup is Shamet, who steps into the spot left vacant by the injured OG Anunoby. Unlike Brunson, who’s considered day-to-day, OG will be out for at least two weeks. Shamet is worth considering in deep leagues, especially after going off for 36 points in Friday’s win over the Heat.

Miles McBride (personal) is available for Monday’s matchup with the Heat.

McBride will be available and presumable draw the start with Jalen Brunson (ankle). Deuce is worth streaming if you need some point guard stats.

Miles McBride (personal) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Heat.

McBride would be in line for another start with Jalen Brunson (ankle) already ruled out for Monday. It’s unclear what McBride’s chances of playing are with an unknown personal issue. Landry Shamet would perhaps be next in line for a start if McBride is ultimately ruled out.
