Appearing in a game for the first time since November 21, Horford is part of the Warriors’ starting lineup, filling the void left by the injured Jimmy Butler III. With the 39-year-old returning from sciatica, his minutes are likely to be restricted, meaning a slight bump may be in the cards for Quinten Post.

Horford is available to make his first appearance since November 21 against the Trail Blazers. He’ll give the Warriors another option to call upon in the frontcourt, but the days when the veteran center was a lock to provide reliable production may be in the rear-view mirror.

Kuminga is available after being questionable, giving the Warriors some much-needed depth on the wing. With Jimmy Butler III unavailable, there may be additional opportunities available to Kuminga. However, because of the knee injury that sidelined him for multiple games, the Warriors may take a conservative approach to Kuminga’s playing time.

Post should remain in the Warriors’ rotation on Thursday, regardless of what happens with the status of 76ers starting center Joel Embiid. However, the second-year center’s fantasy ceiling is limited, even with the Warriors not having Stephen Curry or Jimmy Butler III to rely on offensively.

Butler was initially questionable for Thursday’s game after a sore left knee caused a premature exit from Tuesday’s loss to the Thunder. Gary Payton II and Buddy Hield should see their minutes increase, and De’Anthony Melton is available to make his first appearance of the season. Of the three, Hield offers the highest offensive ceiling.

A 20-point scorer in two consecutive games for the third time this season, Thompson recorded his fourth double-double on Wednesday. Also, this was his first game with at least 20 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists since November 5 against the Grizzlies. While he still hasn’t reached the heights that many fantasy managers hoped he would before the season began, Thompson has been a top-50 player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks.

In addition to scoring at least 24 points in each of his last three games, Durant dished out a season-high eight assists on Wednesday. Given his skill set, it’s unsurprising that the future Hall of Fame forward has fit in seamlessly with his new teammates. Durant may not be providing first-round fantasy value, but he’s been far from a slouch in his new home. Houston closes its Week 7 with a back-to-back against the Suns (Friday) and Mavericks (Sunday).

The Kings struggled to find an answer for Şengün, who recorded his 11th double-double of the season on Wednesday. For the season, the Rockets center is providing top-25 value in eight-cat formats, which aligns with his Yahoo! ADP (19). As long as Şengün stays healthy, those who have him rostered should be well-positioned to compete in their leagues throughout the season.

Adams missed Monday’s loss against the Jazz due to rest. The 32-year-old center will be back on the floor for Wednesday’s matchup with the Kings. Adams isn’t worth rostering in most fantasy leagues unless something happens to Alperen Sengun.

Post has been a solid backup center this year, but with Draymond Green healthy, he won’t have much upside as a streamer regardless of his status.

Melton last suited up on Nov. 12, 2024, meaning if he sees the floor against Philadelphia, he will play for the first time in over a calendar year. It’s unclear how large of a role he’ll have, though it can safely be assumed that it won’t be a large one at first. Melton has a fantasy-friendly skillset, and he could end up as an intriguing waiver-wire pickup later in the year.

Horford could make his return after missing Golden State’s last four games. Quinten Post and Trayce Jackson-Davis are also questionable, so the availability of all three players will impact the minutes of each. Still, if Horford plays, he’s going to see his typical role as a backup center.

Since returning from a seven-game absence due to a bilateral knee issue, Kuminga has played 19 and 16 minutes off the bench. Now, he’s dealing with right ankle soreness. If he isn’t able to suit up against Philly, Moses Moody and Buddy Hield should see a bump in minutes.

Knee soreness ended Butler’s night early on Tuesday, which allowed Gary Payton II to start the second half in his place. Buddy Hield logged 28 minutes off the bench, and while he didn’t shoot well, he did get 15 shots. If Butler misses Thursday’s game, Hield would be the preferred streaming option over GPII.

Curry, who suffered a right quad contusion during the Warriors’ November 26 loss to the Rockets, has not played in the team’s last two games. Unfortunately, he’ll be out for a bit longer, with head coach Steve Kerr announcing following Tuesday’s loss to the Thunder that Curry will not travel for the team’s three-game road trip. After visiting Philadelphia on Thursday, the Warriors have games against the Cavaliers (December 6) and Bulls (December 7) before returning home. The hope is that Curry will be able to play on December 12 against the Timberwolves. Until then, Brandin Podziemski should continue to start, and he’s worth adding in 12-team leagues.

With older brother Stephen out with a quad contusion, Seth made his Warriors debut on Tuesday. And he provided excellent scoring value in his role, logging 18 minutes off the bench. Curry was one of four Warriors reserves to reach double figures, and the team will need more of the same with Jimmy Butler exiting Tuesday’s game with a sore right knee. Seth should not be rostered on the strength of one game, but with Stephen not traveling for the upcoming road trip, that could change with another solid performance.

Due to injuries to Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler, the Warriors needed contributions from everyone to compete with the reigning champs on Tuesday. That includes Spencer, who matched his career-high in points in 21 minutes off the bench. In the three games leading up to Tuesday, the two-way contract guard totaled seven points on 3-of-6 shooting from the field. Against the Thunder, Spencer also recorded a career-high in made shots (eight) and provided solid value in the assist category. He should not be picked up in the immediate aftermath of Tuesday’s showing, but Spencer is worth watching for now.

With Stephen Curry (quad) out and Jimmy Butler (knee) not returning for the second half of Tuesday’s game, the Warriors relied on an even more balanced offensive approach than usual. Podziemski was one of six players to score in double figures, and one of four to hit double digits in shot attempts. He’s been Curry’s replacement in the starting lineup. And with Warriors head coach Steve Kerr saying after Tuesday’s defeat that Steph won’t travel on the upcoming road trip, now is a good time to roll the dice on Podziemski in 12-team formats.

Butler, who exited Tuesday’s game during the first half, was officially ruled out between the third and fourth quarters. Also, the Warriors describe his injury as a sore right knee rather than a sprained right ankle.

Butler sprained his ankle during the first half of Tuesday’s game, and he was not on the bench to begin the third quarter. While the Warriors have managed to trim the deficit in his absence, it’s possible that Butler’s night is done. Gary Payton II started the third quarter in his place.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr made just one change to his starting lineup, replacing Quinten Post with Richard. The smaller lineup may work better defensively, mainly since the Thunder employs only one big man in their current five (Chet Holmgren). Starting gives Richard a higher fantasy ceiling, but he is not a must-stream in this spot.

Thompson finished with at least 20 points for the third time in the last five games, with his production inside the arc being key on Monday. Despite the loss, his scoring was significantly higher than the five points he posted the night prior against the Jazz. Yet, Thompson didn’t have nearly the same level of success as a facilitator this time around. Nonetheless, the third-year guard had a solid performance overall and should be able to secure another against the Kings on Wednesday.

Sengün was fantastic in Monday’s loss, reaching the 30-point mark for the third time this season while providing much more production as a rebounder and facilitator than the previous night against the Jazz. And as if his near-triple-double wasn’t enough, the fifth-year center had his most dominant defensive performance of the season from a fantasy basketball standpoint, tallying seven stocks for the game. Sengün is likely to make a massive impact on the offensive end each time he takes the floor. If his defensive production can remain consistent, his floor and ceiling will rise even further in fantasy leagues.

Durant was one of two Rockets to pass the 30-point mark on Monday in Salt Lake City. He tallied as many free throws as he did made field goals in this game, with high volume allowing his inefficient shooting to make enough scoring production to lead Houston in points. The two-time Finals MVP also tied a season-high in rebounds to fall just shy of a double-double. His five turnovers were one of his limited weaknesses on the night. He’ll have a chance to put together another strong performance against the Kings on Wednesday.

Adams only logged 17 minutes in this game, but that was enough time for him to record his third double-double of the season. He was able to dominate down low, but also at the free throw line, which is typically a weakness for him. Adams is shooting a career-best 73.3 percent from the line after shooting 46.2 percent last year and 36.4 percent the year before. He’ll only be worth consistently streaming when Alperen Şengün is unavailable, but this was a strong performance for him.
HOU • Center • #28

Şengün didn’t supply his typical dose of rebounds and dimes, but he was unstoppable as a scorer. He only played 28 minutes in the blowout win, so he could’ve had a better outing if the game was closer. Houston will remain in Utah to take on the Jazz once again on Monday, so Şengün should have no issues having another big scoring night.

Sheppard moved into the starting lineup with Kevin Durant (personal) unavailable for two games, but with KD back, Sheppard remained a starter, with Josh Okogie returning to the bench. Sheppard played 31 minutes in the blowout win, and while he didn’t do much scoring, he was able to make a big impact on this game. Assuming Sheppard remains a starter, he should be a reliable option in fantasy hoops for the remainder of the season, with potential to be one of the best late-round picks this year.

Following a two-game absence, KD was able to get back on track after struggling in his last two appearances. He shot 11-of-33 across his last two games, but in this one, he shot above 70 percent for the third time this season. Durant will continue to be an elite fantasy basketball option, even if his numbers are slightly down from his typical output. Hopefully this efficient shooting night will help kickstart his offense and lead to a strong run. They’ll remain in Utah to take on the Jazz again on Monday.

KD missed two games, but he’ll be back to take on Utah to close out the week. Reed Sheppard started in his place and played really well.

In that case, it would be Josh Okogie heading to the bench, though it is more likely that Sheppard returns to the sixth man role.

On a night in which Kevin Durant was unavailable, Sengun didn’t fully take advantage of the additional scoring opportunities left behind. He shot inefficiently from the field, didn’t make a three-pointer, and was hardly impactful on the glass. Still, Sengun came up with a big basket down the stretch and finished as the Rockets’ leader in assists. He’s been less productive over the past few games, but should remain as one of the top centers in fantasy leagues moving forward.

After tallying just seven points in a win over the Suns on Monday, Sheppard responded on Wednesday with his third 20-point game of the month, and first 30-point game of his young career. He was productive from beyond the arc and dazzled in the midrange, which led him to finish as Houston’s leading scorer on the evening. He also made an impact with his rebounding and playmaking in the win. The sophomore guard continues to put together a strong season and should remain an important piece going forward.

Thompson took over as Houston’s primary offensive catalyst with Kevin Durant — averaging a team-high 24.6 points per game — out of the lineup for the first time this season due to personal reasons, propelling the Rockets to their 11th time in their last 13 contests. They were in complete control from the outset of this one as Thompson knocked down 10 of 16 shots from the floor while also chipping in eight assists and seven rebounds in a stat sheet-stuffing performance worthy of a Thanksgiving feast. The 22-year-old burgeoning superstar has been hot recently, averaging 20.7 points, 7.7 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 2.3 steals over his last three games, delivering second-round value for fantasy purposes during that stretch. The Rockets return to action on Wednesday night with a challenging road tilt against the Warriors.

The -year-old sharpshooter scored 12 of his 22 points in the first half to help lift Houston to a nine-point lead at the break which they wouldn’t relinquish.
