Rollins has dished out seven assists in two of his last three games, and his season-long fantasy value continues to hold steady just outside the top-50 in eight-cat formats. And with Kevin Porter Jr. (oblique) expected to be out for a while, now is a good time to hop back onto the Rollins bandwagon, even with Wednesday’s modest production.

Not only were the nine assists a season-high for Portis, but Wednesday’s tally equalled his total in Milwaukee’s previous eight games. While Gary Harris (three points, one assist and one three-pointer) started for the injured Myles Turner, he only played nine minutes, and Portis was in the lineup to begin the third quarter. If Turner isn’t back for Friday’s game against the Nuggets, one would think that Portis would be his replacement. It doesn’t make sense to start anyone else.

The Bucks were on the wrong end of their fourth defeat in five games, with Giannis leading the way offensively. He remains under a minutes restriction, but the Bucks continue to battle inconsistency with the trade deadline two weeks away. While Giannis may not be on the move, the team around him likely needs to change if Milwaukee is to entertain any thoughts of being a factor come playoff time.

The Bucks don’t have Myles Turner for Wednesday’s game, opening up a spot in the starting lineup. He’ll be replaced by Harris, who can give the Bucks’ perimeter defense a boost. This lineup also means Giannis will start guarding Chet Holmgren.

Porter, who came off the bench in Monday’s win over the Hawks, is dealing with a strained oblique muscle. Given Rivers’ words, KPJ’s injury may be a week-to-week deal, and that’s being conservative. His absence raises Ryan Rollins’ fantasy ceiling, and Gary Trent Jr. may re-enter the rotation.

Washington is back with the team after missing the last two games for personal reasons. His return likely means that Caleb Martin will head to the bench, where he offers minimal fantasy value.

A late scratch for Dallas’ January 17 game against the Jazz, Russell also sat out Monday’s win over the Knicks. His availability may affect Ryan Nembhard, who is still on a two-way contract. If the Mavericks make the undrafted rookie inactive, there will be rotation minutes for Russell. That said, there’s no need to roster him.

Gafford has missed the Mavericks’ last three games with a sprained ankle. While Dwight Powell started Monday’s win over the Knicks, reserve Moussa Cissé was more productive. That will likely be the rotation on Thursday if Gafford remains out, but Cissé is also questionable due to an illness.

Cissé, who has provided valuable contributions off the bench when the Mavericks have been shorthanded, is dealing with an illness. How impactful his absence would be depends on Daniel Gafford (ankle), who’s also listed as questionable for Thursday night. If Gafford plays, there may not be much room in the rotation for Cissé, especially if the Mavericks decide to save a game since the rookie is on a two-way deal.

Turner’s absence should mean plenty of run for Bobby Portis, with Jericho Sims earning some additional minutes off the bench. In six starts this season, Portis has averaged 16 points, nine boards and 1.7 triples across 31 minutes.

KPJ came off the bench in his last game out, but his vacated minutes should give Ryan Rollins a higher upside. Gary Trent Jr. may pick up some extra minutes too, but Rollins is the clear streaming option here.

Turner is dealing with a left ankle sprain, according to the injury report. His status is up in the air for Wednesday’s game against the Thunder given his questionable designation. Bobby Portis and Jericho Sims would be candidates to fill in at the center position if Turner is ultimately ruled out with Portis as the preferred fantasy option.

Porter, who came off the bench in Monday’s win over the Hawks, is dealing with a strained oblique muscle. Gary Trent Jr. could be moved into the rotation after picking up a DNP-CD the last time out, but he would not be worth the streaming risk.

Cissé wasn’t in the starting lineup on Monday, but the rookie center had one of his best games of the season. Finishing one rebound shy of a double-double, he was also responsible for four blocked shots. While Cissé isn’t a must-add right now, he’s worth being mindful of if the Mavericks decide to prioritize the 2026 draft lottery.

Making his first appearance at Madison Square Garden as an NBA player, Flagg had a solid evening at the office as the Mavs blew out the Knicks. Over the past two weeks, the rookie has been close to a top-50 player in eight-cat formats. The lone concern for Flagg would be staying healthy, as Monday’s game was his first after missing two with a sprained ankle.

Two significant issues became apparent for the Knicks early in Monday’s game: they couldn’t run Max Christie off the line, and they couldn’t keep Marshall out of the paint. Naji shot 6-of-12 from inside the arc, with a 1-of-6 mark from three negatively affecting his overall field-goal percentage. Providing sixth-round value in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks, Marshall is worth rostering, especially with P.J. Washington and Anthony Davis sidelined.

Christie put on a three-point shooting clinic in the first half of Monday’s game, making six of his seven attempts. The Mavericks guard would end the game with a career-best eight three-pointers and a season-high point total. In fact, Christie has scored at least 20 in consecutive games for the first time this season. With Anthony Davis out, there’s a need for scoring, and that makes Christie worth a look in deeper fantasy formats.

Flagg is back after missing the last two games with a sprained left ankle. His return pushes Brandon Williams to the bench, so look for the rookie to initiate a lot of the Mavericks’ offense. Williams will still take on a solid role off the bench, but his fantasy ceiling has been lowered with the change.

Following a two-game absence, Flagg will be back in the lineup to take on New York. Caleb Martin should return to playing a role off the bench with Flagg back, which will eliminate the little streaming value he held.

Looking to give the bench unit a spark, Bucks head coach Doc Rivers moved Porter to the bench, with Kyle Kuzma moving into the starting lineup. While he didn’t score much, KPJ’s seven assists were valuable. As for Kuzma, he accounted for 10 points, one rebound, one assist, one block and one three-pointer. Porter moving to the bench is disappointing from a fantasy standpoint, but managers must hold onto him. The playing time will still be there.

Turner’s making four three-pointers in Monday’s victory was not a surprise, as he is one of the best perimeter-shooting bigs in the NBA. However, the veteran center was more productive on the glass than he’s been for most of this season. The eight boards were the most in a game for Turner in nearly two months, having last reached that number on November 26. Unfortunately, fantasy managers can’t count on Turner for consistent rebounding production.

A double-digit scorer in five straight games, Portis’ 19 points were the most he’s had in a game since dropping 20 in a January 2 win over the Hornets. While there wasn’t much rebounding production to be had, the veteran forward had a good afternoon shooting the basketball. Portis has only exceeded 25 minutes in two of the seven games he’s played this month, and the playing time does more harm to his fantasy ceiling than being used in a reserve role. That said, he should still be rostered in 14-team leagues.

Antetokounmpo’s playing time is still being restricted, with the Bucks’ forward limited to 30 minutes on Monday. The good news for fantasy managers was that Giannis still recorded a robust stat line, with the low free-throw percentage being the only issue. However, most fantasy managers understand that the poor foul shooting comes with the territory when rostering Antetokounmpo.

With the change to the All-Star Game format, starters are announced by conference, with no regard to position. Giannis led the way among Eastern Conference vote-getters, and he’ll be a starter for the World squad in next month’s All-Star Game in Inglewood, California. Brunson, Cunningham, Maxey and Brown will represent one of the two United States teams.

Having lost three straight and four of their last five games, the Bucks are making a change to the starting lineup. Kuzma is in, with Kevin Porter Jr. being moved to the bench. While KPJ’s fantasy value takes a hit, Ryan Rollins’ value should receive a boost since he’ll be the lone primary ballhandler in the lineup.
