Randle continues to deal with soreness in his left thumb, which is difficult to deal with for a left-handed shooter. The 31-year-old power forward was able to play through the injury Monday against the Grizzlies. If Randle is out Wednesday, Jaylen Clark could move into the starting lineup and Naz Reid would have a higher ceiling.

While Edwards is back on the injury report, the good news is that it’s because of a sore left elbow rather than the lingering right foot issue. With the Timberwolves trading Mike Conley on Tuesday, Bones Hyland would be the likely replacement in the lineup if Ant-Man can’t play.

DiVincenzo’s production has come inconsistently this season, but he’s still capable of getting hot and pouring in the points. He shot over 70 percent for the first time this season while still contributing plenty of triples and steals. This was the 15th straight game that he hit at least two three-pointers, and he has swiped at least one steal in all but two of those games. January was a productive month for him, and he has started February off well.

McDaniels has been on a heater recently, which continued in this game. This was the third straight game that he scored at least 20 points, and he has averaged 23.3 points and 4.3 triples while shooting 69.2 percent from the floor during this stretch. He’s enjoyed arguably the best season of his career thus far, but he has taken his scoring up a notch recently. He’ll look to stay hot in Toronto on Wednesday.

It has been nearly two months since Edwards last scored less than 20 points in a game, and this was the second game in a row that he scored at least 30 points, with both games being played in Memphis. However, they ended up on the wrong side of the scoreboard in this one, which ended a four-game winning streak. He is having the best season of his career by averaging a career high for points while also having the best field goal and three-point percentage of his career. He’ll look to stay hot in Toronto on Wednesday.

Randle is managing sore in his thumb in his shooting hand, but it won’t keep him out of the lineup against Memphis. He had 27 points, seven rebounds and seven assists in Saturday’s game against them and will look to provide an encore in the second game of this mini series.

Curry injured his knee during Friday’s loss to Detroit, and while the Warriors have downplayed the severity, it will keep him out in their first game since then, which is also four days later. De’Anthony Melton and Pat Spencer will take on larger roles, with one of them likely sliding into the starting unit. With Curry, Jimmy Butler (knee) and Jonathan Kuminga (knee) all out of the lineup, there will be plenty of usage to go around.

Randle is dealing with a sore left thumb, which is problematic since he’s a left-handed shooter. He’s yet to miss a game this season, but an absence could push Jaylen Clark into the starting lineup. No Randle would also raise Naz Reid’s ceiling, even if he’s used in his usual reserve role.

Reid, who’s reached double figures in four straight and six of his last seven games, had one of his best all-around games of the month on Saturday. The six three-pointers were a new season-high, and he was a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. Over the past month, Reid has been a top-40 player in fantasy basketball according to Basketball Monster. If he’s sitting on the waiver wire in a shallow league, don’t hesitate to pick him up.

Rebounds and defensive stats are the areas where Gobert can be most valuable to fantasy managers, and that’s how things played out on Saturday. He’s hit double digits in rebounds and blocked at least two shots in three of his last four outings. For those willing to punt free-throw percentage, Gobert has been a top-25 fantasy player this season. The Timberwolves play four games in Week 16.

For the first time since early November, McDaniels has recorded back-to-back 20-point games. He’s also reached double figures in shot attempts in two straight games, and this level of aggression is what the Timberwolves need from McDaniels consistently. He got off to an excellent start to the season, but tailed off a bit after Christmas. Even if he doesn’t do much scoring, McDaniels will provide solid fantasy value. However, he’s a far different player when willing to look for his shot more often.

While Randle’s defensive production wasn’t as robust as it was in Thursday’s win over the Thunder, he got back on track offensively. The Timberwolves’ forward was responsible for 27 points and seven assists, with the latter tally being the most in a game for him since December 29. The Timberwolves open a four-game Week 16 in Memphis on Monday, which is good news for those who have Randle on their fantasy rosters.

Edwards finished Saturday’s victory with season-highs in made free throws and free-throw attempts, boosting his overall scoring output. He’s now scored 30 points or more in 20 games this season, with six having occurred in January. The Timberwolves open their four-game Week 16 with another game in Memphis on Monday, so another 30-point night may be in the cards for Ant-Man.

Curry exited Friday’s loss to the Pistons during the third quarter with a sore right knee. Following the game, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said that he didn’t believe the knee injury to be “anything major,” and Saturday’s MRI backed that up. The Warriors are off until Tuesday against the 76ers, so Curry will have a few more days to rest.

Melton had another excellent shooting night off the bench Friday. The 27-year-old shooting guard has now been in double figures in nine of his last 11 games. Melton typically plays 25 minutes or less, which caps his overall fantasy value and makes ceiling games hard to come by. Still, his scoring was up in January as he averaged 14.4 points per game. Melton and the Warriors have a few days off before their next game Tuesday against the 76ers.

Curry left Friday’s game against the Pistons in the third quarter with right knee soreness and didn’t return, but his coach didn’t seem too concerned about it postgame. Kerr told reporters he doesn’t think the injury is anything major, though it’s been nagging the 37-year-old point guard for the past week. The Warriors will have a more official update on Curry’s status Saturday, but it seems more like an injury he’ll have to manage than something that could keep him sidelined for an extended period. The Warriors fortunately have a few days off before Tuesday’s game against the 76ers.

Curry checked out of the game in the third quarter Friday against the Pistons and headed straight to the locker room following a brief interaction with the team’s trainer. The Warriors quickly ruled him out for the rest of the game with right knee soreness. While the severity of the injury is unclear, the Warriors have a few days off before their next game Tuesday against the 76ers. With Jimmy Butler already done for the year, a significant injury to Curry isn’t one the Warriors can afford.

Randle may not have done much scoring on Thursday, but he was one of the Timberwolves who brought added defensive intensity to the table. And that paid off in the form of four steals, a season-high for Randle. He’s providing top-25 value in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks, averaging just over 22 points per game. The Timberwolves play one more game in Week 15, as they visit the Grizzlies on Saturday.

With Rudy Gobert initially questionable for Thursday’s game with a sprained left ankle, it appeared that Reid would have a chance to start. Gobert (14 points, 11 rebounds, three assists and one steal) played, but his presence in the lineup didn’t keep Reid from doing what he usually does as the highest-scoring reserve in the NBA. Over the past two weeks, he has been close to a top-50 player in eight-cat formats.

After averaging 11.8 points on 42 percent shooting in Minnesota’s last five games, McDaniels had an outstanding night against the Thunder. He made all five of his three-point attempts and has scored at least 20 points in 11 games this season, one less than his tally for the entire 2024-25 campaign. While playing alongside Anthony Edwards and Julius Randle limits McDaniels’ offensive ceiling, his overall production makes him worth having in standard category leagues.

After sitting out Monday’s loss to the Timberwolves, Horford was back in the starting lineup on Wednesday. Having started the last two games that he’s been available for, it’s fair to wonder if Horford will be able to hold onto the job for a bit. He provided good value in that role on Wednesday, recording a complete stat line that included eight assists and three blocks. Quentin Post (10/6/2 with two three-pointers) had a good night off the bench, but Horford has a higher ceiling because of his abilities as a facilitator and defender.

Of the eight Warriors who finished Wednesday’s victory in double figures, five were reserves. That includes Santos, whose 16 points were three shy of his career-high. And while Golden State did lead by as much as 27, his production can’t be credited solely to the game getting out of hand. There’s no need to add Santos after Wednesday’s performance, but this may inspire some confidence among deep-league managers the next time that Golden State is shorthanded.

Recording his first 20-point game in nearly two weeks, Moody had one of his best games of the season on Wednesday. The 26 points were the most he’s tallied in a game since November 16, when the Warriors’ guard dropped a season-high 32. With Jimmy Butler (knee) done for the rest of the season, the Warriors will need increased production from the supporting cast, including Moody. While his season-long fantasy value remains low, the circumstances make Moody a player worth adding in standard leagues.
