SGA is a late addition to the injury report with right knee bursitis, putting his chances of taking the court seriously in doubt. If the reigning MVP is unable to play against Utah, Ajay Mitchell is a candidate to replace him in the starting five, with Cason Wallace and Isaiah Joe taking on some more minutes.

Wednesday’s game will be the 11th that Grant has missed. With Kris Murray listed as doubtful, Sidy Cissoko may be moved into the starting lineup. While a solid defender, Cissoko’s limited offensive ceiling makes him challenging to rely on as a streamer.

Deni Avdija has filled in as Portland’s primary playmaker and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. And that may be his role after Holiday returns; Deni has been that productive for the Trail Blazers.

Coming off arguably his worst performance of the season, Sharpe bounced back in a big way in this blowout victory. Sharpe’s been a high-level scorer, and he’s averaging a career high in steals, but his value in category leagues has been limited by a lack of production in other categories. However, that wasn’t the case in this game, and he was more efficient than he has typically been this year. This was an excellent outing, but it’s also one that Sharpe likely won’t be able to make happen often.

Clingan dominated early on in this game and entered the halftime break with a double-double. This was his third straight double-double, and he has one in five of his last six games. However, it’s the deep-range shooting that has been the real revelation. He hit a total of 14 triples as a rookie, but he has five over his last two games and 12 over his last seven. Clingan doesn’t need to become a true stretch five, but if he can space the floor, it will continue to open up the offense for Portland.

Avdija’s dominant first half helped Portland take a 21-point lead into halftime. He had 23 points, seven rebounds and four assists entering the break. He didn’t add much after that, but he didn’t need to for the Blazers to get the win. Turnovers and poor percentages have limited Avdija’s value in category leagues, but those haven’t been as severe an issue over his last three games. He’ll look to keep it going against the Rockets on Wednesday.

After a 24-1 start to the season, the Thunder are suddenly 6-6 in their last 12 games. The 27-point loss to the Hornets Monday was tied for their largest loss over the last two seasons. Gilgeous-Alexander didn’t have his best game with 21 points on 21 attempts and was -20 in 30 minutes. The Thunder will look to bounce back Wednesday against the Jazz.

Oklahoma City led by as many as 18 but faltered down the home stretch as Phoenix rallied late to pull out a comeback win. The reigning NBA MVP came alive in the third quarter, contributing 12 points on 4-of-9 shooting, after a slow start to the contest. The 27-year-old superstar failed to break the 30-point mark for the first time in four games, but managed to get to the line nine times. The defending NBA champions had righted the ship after a pair of late-December losses to the upstart Spurs by winning four straight. They’ll kick off a four-game slate next week with a home bout against the Hornets before squaring off against the Jazz, Grizzlies and Heat.

Williams connected on a game-tying jumper with nine seconds left in regulation but Suns superstar Devin Booker nailed a game-winning shot in the final seconds to snap the Thunder’s four-game win streak. The 24-year-old rising star has been extremely impressive since making his season debut back on November 28, delivering fifth-round fantasy value, averaging 17.2 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.4 blocks through 17 games.

Camara isn’t an elite three-point shooter, but he has upped his production in that category. The Trail Blazers’ wing has hit multiple three-pointers in six straight and nine of his last ten appearances. However, Camara’s percentages have decreased, as has the defensive production. For those reasons, he’s ranked outside the top-200 in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks. While managers in deep leagues can afford to remain patient, standard-league managers who have Camara rostered have a decision to make ahead of Portland’s four-game Week 12.

Avdija continues his charge toward a first All-Star Game appearance.

Portland opens a four-game Week 12 on Monday against the Jazz.

Wallace suffered a right knee contusion, which limited him to 14 minutes. The third-year guard finished with two points (1-of-4 FGs), three rebounds, one assist and two steals. If Wallace has to miss time, Aaron Wiggins is the most likely replacement in the starting lineup.

As Shai Gilgeous-Alexander said during his interview after Friday’s 37-point win, the Thunder are a different team when Holmgren is at his best defensively. And fantasy managers benefit as well. With Isaiah Hartenstein (calf) out, Oklahoma City needs more from Holmgren, and he answered the call on Friday. He’s recorded four double-doubles in his last five outings and totaled 16 blocks over his previous four. Over the past two weeks, Holmgren has provided top-20 per-game value in eight-cat formats.

With Nikola Jokić (knee) out for at least the next four weeks, Gilgeous-Alexander’s already-high fantasy value receives a boost due to his being available.

The many injuries that the Trail Blazers have dealt with on the perimeter opened the door for Love, and the undrafted rookie out of Arizona has taken advantage. He’s now reached double figures in six straight games, providing top-100 per-game value in eight- and nine-cat formats. Rostered in seven percent of Yahoo! leagues, Love is worth a look in deeper formats while guys like Jrue Holiday and Scoot Henderson are out. As a two-way contract player, he’s limited to 50 games, and the rookie has played 27. We’ll see if Love can do enough to earn a standard deal before hitting the 50-game mark.

Since missing three games in early December with a leg injury, Clingan has hit double digits in rebounds in eight of his 11 appearances. Friday’s double-double was his 11th of the season and fifth since returning from injury, with the second-year center providing eighth-round per-game value in nine-cat formats. Robert Williams III (four points, six rebounds, one assist and one blocked shot) played 18 minutes off the bench; as long as Clingan can meet or exceed 30 minutes, as he did on Friday, his fantasy value will be fine.

While there were moments when Sharpe struggled to get his offense going, especially when guarded by Pelicans rookie Micah Peavy, he still scored 23 points on 50 percent shooting. Over the past two weeks, Sharpe has provided top-100 per-game value in eight-cat formats.

Avdija has recorded a double-double in three of his last four games, but this was his first with at least 30 points in over a month.

Another positive for fantasy managers on Friday was that Avdija only committed two turnovers; that category has been problematic at times.

Sharpe struggled with his efficiency on Wednesday, tallying nearly as many missed shots as he had points — zero made three-pointers, and limited production from the free-throw line led to the fourth-year guard’s lowest points total of December.

In a December full of near-double-doubles, Holmgren was able to collect his second game of at least 10 points and 10 rebounds on Wednesday — he needed just 25 minutes to achieve the feat.
