Caruso will be sidelined for a fourth straight game, as the Thunder look to snap a two-game skid and get back in the win column. With Caruso, Jalen Williams, and Ajay Mitchell unavailable, Cason Wallace (hip), if healthy, would be a nice streaming option for Tuesday’s contest. Kenrich Williams and Isaiah Joe could also see quality minutes and have opportunities to produce.

Wallace left Sunday’s loss to the Raptors due to what was described as a sore groin, but he’s on the injury report for Tuesday due to a sore left hip. With Ajay Mitchell (abdominals) already out, Aaron Wiggins would be the most likely starter if Wallace can’t play against New Orleans.

Tuesday’s absence will mark the third straight for the second-year guard out of Santa Barbara, who is enjoying a breakout sophomore campaign. Mitchell, despite spending most of the season as a reserve, is averaging 14.1 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.4 steals per game. His two-way versatility will be missed as the Thunder try to snap a two-game losing streak.

Hartenstein will miss his 16th consecutive game on Tuesday when the defending champs host the Pelicans and look to snap a two-game losing streak. Since his last appearance on December 28, the Thunder have gone 10-5. Hartenstein’s interior presence is missed, but while he remains out, Jaylin Williams and Chet Holmgren will likely continue to soak up the frontcourt minutes.

Coming off a 47-point outing against the Pacers on Friday, Gilgeous-Alexander had just 24 points in Sunday’s loss to the Raptors. SGA was efficient, taking just 11 field goal attempts and making 8-of-10 free throws. He’s been the top player in per game value over the last two weeks. The Thunder have three games in the upcoming week, starting with a matchup against the Pelicans on Tuesday.

Bey continues to shine for the Pelicans, and he’s rebounded nicely after missing the entire 2024-25 season with a torn ACL. He’s scored at least 20 points in three straight and four of his last five appearances, providing top-75 per-game value in eight-cat formats since January 1. Bey is rostered in 30 percent of Yahoo! leagues, but now may be a good time to commit to him in standard leagues, even with the Pelicans playing three games in Week 15.

After starting for most of his rookie season, Missi has primarily been an afterthought in his second year due to the arrival of Derik Queen. However, since the calendar flipped to 2026, the 6-foot-11 center has averaged 22.3 minutes per game. While Missi’s fantasy value hasn’t been great during this stretch, the increase in playing time gives him more chances to do what he did on Sunday: record a double-double with a few “stocks.” Due to foul trouble, Queen (four points, four rebounds and one assist) played 17 minutes, which opened the door for Missi.

Murphy played Sunday’s game after appearing on the injury report with a sore right hand, and that may have affected his shooting. Entering the game shooting 49.4 percent from the field and 38.1 percent from three, the Pelicans forward struggled against the Spurs. Murphy shot 3-of-11 from three and was slightly better (4-of-11) from inside the arc. However, the good news for fantasy managers is that he offered good value in the rebound and assist categories.

In a matchup of two of the NBA’s more unique individual talents, Williamson outplayed Victor Wembanayma on Sunday. The Pelicans forward recorded his second double-double in as many games and third of the season. Add in the assists and percentages, and Sunday’s performance was an excellent one for Williamson. The Pelicans play three games in Week 15, starting with the Thunder on Tuesday.

Wallace played 16 minutes before being ruled out for the rest of Sunday’s game, finishing with three points, one rebound and one assist. Aaron Wiggins entered the lineup to begin the third quarter, and he would have deep-league streaming value if Wallace misses time.

Aaron Wiggins is back after a two-game absence, but he will come off the bench. JayWill is the fifth starter for Sunday’s game, with Isaiah Joe moving to the bench. Williams isn’t a great streaming option here, as SGA and Holmgren are available.

Sunday’s game will be Alvarado’s first since January 6, giving the Pelicans additional depth at point guard. With Jeremiah Fears recently moving to the bench, there may not be as many minutes available to Alvarado as there would be if the rookie were starting. Alvarado isn’t a must-add player, but he’s worth keeping an eye on.

Absent from the Pelicans’ initial injury report for Sunday, Murphy has been added due to a sore right (shooting) hand. He’s been the team’s most productive player, so not having Murphy would significantly affect the Pelicans on both ends of the floor. If he sits, the recently benched Jeremiah Fears could move back into the starting lineup, but fantasy managers in most leagues can afford to leave the rookie alone.

Caruso will miss a third consecutive game since suffering a strained right adductor during a January 19 win over the Cavaliers. Due to the injuries on the perimeter, more minutes have been available to Isaiah Joe and Cason Wallace, with the latter being the superior fantasy option.

Alvarado has not appeared in a game since January 6, when he suffered a strained oblique during a loss to the Lakers. His return may result in fewer minutes for Micah Peavy, who played 16 off the bench in Friday’s win over the Grizzlies. This would not have a significant impact on fantasy basketball.

Joe started on Friday but was one of many Thunder players to struggle. He went without a made three-pointer for the first time since January 9 against Memphis, and wasn’t able to make much of an impact in any other area. Joe will almost certainly have better games moving forward as one of the NBA’s premier three-point specialists, but when he’s not making shots, his final lines can look a lot like Friday’s.

Holmgren was highly productive in his 33 minutes of game action. In the loss, he made more than half of his shot attempts, contributed from beyond the arc, and was stellar on the glass. And to complement his offensive success, Holmgren added a few blocks on the defensive end. The strong two-way performance isn’t anything new for the former Gonzaga Bulldog. He should remain a nightly double-double threat the rest of the season.

Gilgeous-Alexander did all that he could on Friday to collect a win in the Finals rematch against the Pacers, but even a near 50-point performance wasn’t enough to secure the win. The reigning MVP worked mostly inside the arc to get his buckets and was his usual productive self from the free-throw line. His four assists weren’t particularly high, but it’s notable that he tied a team-high in this game. He came up with a couple of stocks to boost his production from a fantasy standpoint. And despite the loss, he put together yet another fantastic outing.

After exiting Wednesday’s game early with an illness, Williamson made up for the missed time against the Grizzlies on Friday. As usual, he did all of his work inside the arc as a scorer and would have crept a bit closer to the 30-point mark if it weren’t for missed free throws. The versatile forward also left his mark on the glass, as he led the Pelicans in rebounds on the evening en route to his second double-double of the season. Williamson remains a high-ceiling player in fantasy leagues. He’s put together some nice performances of late.

Murphy was one of multiple Pelicans players to have a big night. On the offensive end, he efficiently shot his way past the 30-point mark for the fifth time in January and utilized the free-throw line along the way. Defensively, Murphy used his length to rack up a few steals and boost his fantasy basketball production in the process. Friday’s strong two-way performance was just the latest in what’s been a great start to the calendar year for Murphy. He’ll have a chance for another big game against the Spurs on Sunday.

Bey’s stellar season continued against the Grizzlies, as he shot efficiently from the floor en route to his first 30-point game of the season. A season-high six three-pointers was a major part of his success on the offensive end in this game, while he also made contributions as a facilitator. Bey’s best moments, however, came in the fourth quarter; he scored 19 in the frame to help the Pacers mount a big comeback and ultimately an overtime victory. Bey remains one of the bright spots for New Orleans this season.

Jones is back in the lineup following an eight-game absence, and he’ll immediately start. Jeremiah Fears, who has started every game since the third game of the season, will head to the bench. Fears should still play a significant role, but he doesn’t hold the same value as a reserve.

Joe will make his first start of the season on Friday, replacing Ajay Mitchell, who started against the Bucks on Wednesday.

Jones will take the floor on Friday for the first time since January 6 against the Lakers, ending an eight-game absence.

Williams was also questionable ahead of Wednesday’s win over the Bucks, but he did not play.

Caruso suffered a strained right adductor during Monday’s win over the Cavaliers, and Friday’s game will be the second that he’s missed since. Cason Wallace and Isaiah Joe have picked up a few additional minutes in Caruso’s absence, with the former starting due to Jalen Williams being out. Of the two, Wallace offers a higher fantasy upside.

Already down a few rotation players, the Thunder lost Ajay Mitchell during Wednesday’s game with a hip contusion. The absences created opportunities for Williams to increase his production, and “Kenny Hustle” had one of his best games of the season. Wednesday’s game was his sixth this season in double figures, and the 18 points were three shy of his season-high. There’s no need to add Williams after this performance, but there may come a time later this season when his playing time increases due to other players resting for the postseason.

The Bucks had no answer for the reigning MVP, who was on his “A game” Wednesday night. Gilgeous-Alexander’s three misses were shots that he usually makes at a high clip, and he finished three rebounds shy of a triple-double. With Nikola Jokić sidelined by a knee injury, an argument can be made that Gilgeous-Alexander is the best player in fantasy basketball. And SGA could be in for another big night as the Thunder hosts the Pacers on Friday.

Inserted into the starting lineup due to Aaron Wiggins being out, Mitchell played 25 minutes before exiting with a right hip contusion. The second-year guard was productive while on the floor, finishing with 18 points (8-of-12 FGs), three rebounds, two assists, two steals and two three-pointers in 25 minutes.

For managers seeking players who could potentially offer value during the “silly season,” Peavy may be one of those options. The rookie out of Georgetown scored a season-high 17 points and recorded a complete stat line on Wednesday. While the Pelicans have no reason to tank, as they don’t control their 2026 first-round pick, there may be a desire later in the season to evaluate Peavy further. There’s no need to add him now, but keep the rookie on your radar.

Give the Pistons credit for their work on the defensive end, with Murphy requiring 19 shots from the field to score 17 points. He remains, by a considerable distance, the best fantasy option on the Pelicans’ roster, and that isn’t changing anytime soon. As long as Murphy’s healthy, he’ll provide excellent fantasy value regardless of league format. On Wednesday, he ran into one of the best teams in the NBA.

Bey didn’t have a great night shooting from the field, but he was a perfect 11-of-11 from the foul line. He’s scored 20 points or more in 11 games this season, going from “fantasy afterthought” to someone who needs to be rostered in deep leagues. At a minimum, Bey should remain in the starting lineup as long as the Pelicans remain without Herb Jones (ankle).

Due to an illness, Williamson was initially questionable for Wednesday’s game. He started but only played 15 minutes before having to exit for the rest of the night.
