Wiggins will miss a fifth straight game, which means additional opportunities should be available for Isaiah Joe and Ajay Mitchell. Mitchell has been starting with Lu Dort (shoulder) sidelined, and even if Dort returns, Mitchell should continue to see meaningful minutes off the bench. Joe’s minutes figure to take the biggest hit when Dort returns, even if Wiggins remains out.

Dort has been sidelined for OKC’s last four games, but he has a chance to return on Saturday. If Dort is back in action, Ajay Mitchell could retreat back to the bench, but Mitchell has been too impactful to see his minutes cut significantly. The latter remains a hold in fantasy leagues.

Monk missed Sacramento’s last game and could miss a second straight outing. Kings coach Doug Christie discussed switching up the starters, so if Monk plays, that could mean he bumps into the opening group. His absence should lead to more minutes for Keon Ellis, Russell Westbrook and Nique Clifford.

Sabonis was one of several Kings players to have a rough night on Wednesday against Atlanta. Sabonis’ performance was one of the better, though — he led all starters in scoring and was the only starter to collect multiple steals. Still, he failed to make an impact on the glass, and the overall production was very insignificant for the veteran center, whose scoring has slipped to begin this season.

DeRozan logged one of his least productive games of the season on Wednesday — he set season lows in points, field-goal attempts, and minutes. To be fair to the veteran forward, there weren’t many positive takeaways for any of Sacramento’s main rotation players on a night in which they trailed by as many as 44 points at home before losing by 33. DeRozan will have a chance to bounce back against the Timberwolves on Friday.

With Malik Monk unavailable to play (ankle), Ellis saw additional opportunities in the blowout loss on Wednesday. All but two of his points came from behind the three-point line before he finished with a new season-high in points. Ellis used active hands to land a pair of steals, but otherwise, he didn’t find much production elsewhere. He may have another chance to produce and log heavy minutes, depending on Monk’s status for Friday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Rostered in 40 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Mitchell continues to provide top-50 fantasy value. With Luguentz Dort sidelined by a shoulder injury, the second-year guard should be rostered in 14-team leagues (and some 12-team leagues) until that changes. And Mitchell may be worth holding onto even after Dort and Jalen Williams return from their respective injuries.

Joe is among Oklahoma City’s “supporting cast” who have upped their production to help compensate for the absence of multiple contributors, including Jalen Williams and Luguentz Dort. He recorded his third 20-point game of the season on Wednesday, with the 21 points being one shy of his previous high. Rostered in 12 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Joe is among six Thunder players currently providing top-100 value in nine-cat formats. And with the Thunder ending its week with a game against the Hornets on Saturday, he makes for an intriguing deep-league streaming option.

At this point, you’re better off searching for the games in which SGA fails to reach 30 points. He already has 11 games of 30 points or more and is averaging 32.5 points per game. As expected, Gilgeous-Alexander is right there with Nikola Jokić and Victor Wembanyama in the race for the title of the best player in fantasy basketball. With Jalen Williams among the key players currently out due to injury, one would think that the Thunder would ask even more of their superstar point guard. However, they haven’t needed to, thanks to a combination of his efficient excellence and the supporting cast being stars in their roles as well.

The Kings won’t have Zach LaVine for Wednesday’s game, as he is dealing with a right thigh contusion. Fellow UCLA alum Westbrook will fill the resulting void, and he’s worth rostering when allowed to start.

The Kings will be without one of their key scorers off the bench on the second night of a back-to-back, as Monk deals with a sore ankle. The veteran guard is posting career-highs in shooting efficiency over nine games this season and averaging 14.2 points per game. As a result, Keon Ellis and Russell Westbrook should be even more involved off the bench for the Kings on Wednesday.

Sabonis is still playing with a left ribcage contusion and is not guaranteed to play on Wednesday.

Dort has missed the last four games with a shoulder injury. Ajay Mitchell had 17 points in 31 minutes in Dort’s absence on Tuesday against the Warriors. Mitchell’s hot start to the season has mostly made up for Dort missing time with injury.

Eubanks was outstanding on Tuesday, holding his own defensively and providing solid offensive value. The 19 points were a season-high, and the 6-foot-10 center has reached double figures in four of his last five games. That said, Eubanks has been most valuable when starting center Domantas Sabonis is unavailable or dealing with foul trouble. The latter issue limited Sabonis to 26 minutes on Tuesday, leaving the other 22 to Eubanks. He isn’t a must-add, but that could change if the Kings hold Sabonis out of Wednesday’s game against the Hawks.

Westbrook has come off the bench in Sacramento’s last two games. However, after playing 16 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Timberwolves, his playing time nearly doubled on Tuesday. Westbrook played well against his most recent former employer, recording his fourth double-double of the season. And with Dennis Schröder struggling to find his way offensively, Westbrook played more against the Nuggets. Schröder played 21 minutes and missed all three of his shot attempts, going scoreless with three assists and three turnovers. While a lineup change may not be in the cards, Westbrook’s fantasy value will rise if Schröder continues to struggle.

Sabonis is doing all he can to fight through the rib contusion that sidelined him for two games last week. On Tuesday, he shared the team lead in scoring with backup Drew Eubanks and grabbed eight rebounds before fouling out. The 26 minutes Sabonis logged were the fewest in a game for him this season; in fact, this was the first game in which he did not hit 30 minutes. While his production has not matched his Yahoo! ADP (18), Sabonis should be fine in the long run. In the short term, those ribs remain a concern, especially with the Kings hosting Atlanta on Wednesday.

Gilgeous-Alexander needed only three quarters to drop 28 points, falling just shy of eclipsing the 30-point mark for the eighth consecutive contest. The reigning league MVP would’ve accomplished the feat had he not sat out the entire fourth quarter with the game in hand already. The defending NBA champions raced out to a commanding 63-44 halftime lead over the Warriors by shooting 53 percent from three-point range, knocking down eight of 15 from downtown. Oklahoma City returns to action on Wednesday night when they host the Lakers.

Holmgren was perfect on nine shots from the field, including a pair of three-pointers, and also knocked down three free throw attempts as the defending champions absolutely demolished the Warriors, improving to 5-0 at home this season. He was able to rest for the entire fourth quarter during the lopsided affair and should be a full-go for Wednesday night’s showdown against the Lakers on the second night of a back-to-back.

After attempting five shots and scoring nine points in Friday’s blowout loss to the Thunder, LaVine was far more involved offensively on Sunday. He’s scored at least 23 points in seven of his nine appearances, with the increased scoring propelling LaVine into the top-50 in eight- and nine-cat formats. After averaging 22.4 points in 32 appearances for the Kings last season, he’s averaged 25.2 points in 2025-26. Given the limited production outside of points and three-pointers, LaVine doesn’t have much margin for error, but scoring has rarely been an issue for him. The Kings play four games during Week 4, starting with Denver on Tuesday.

Traditionally a player whom fantasy managers could count on to approach top-50 value, DeRozan has not played to that standard thus far. While his scoring and three-point production were solid on Sunday, his point and assist averages have decreased compared to the 2024-25 numbers. With Zach LaVine in the fold for a full season and the Kings adding Dennis Schröder and Russell Westbrook as free agents, there are more options for DeRozan to contend with. And that doesn’t factor in the eventual return of Keegan Murray from a preseason thumb injury. DeRozan will still be a valuable option in standard leagues, but getting back to top-50 status will be challenging.

Sabonis was back on the floor after missing two games with a rib contusion. While there were times when his discomfort was visible, the Kings center played 30 minutes and recorded his seventh double-double in as many appearances. Sabonis struggled from the field on Sunday, as the Timberwolves were able to force him to play in a crowd consistently, but frequent trips to the foul line boosted the final point tally. Also, Sabonis attempted a season-high 17 shots, the second time he’s had at least 15 attempts. That level of activity may be required for Sabonis to meet his lofty Yahoo! ADP of 18. And it could be tough to pull off due to the other scorers in the Kings’ rotation.

Schröder appeared to sprain his left ankle during the second quarter when he stepped on the foot of Minnesota’s Donte DiVincenzo while attempting a layup, with his ankle “rolling” inward instead of out. While Schröder remained in the game, he was a shell of himself from that point onward. And with the Kings beginning Week 4 with a Tuesday/Wednesday back-to-back, this may impact Schröder’s availability. Russell Westbrook would be the next man up, and he finished Sunday’s defeat with six points (2-of-7 FGs), one assist, one steal, one block and two three-pointers in 16 minutes off the bench.

After averaging a double-double for the first time in his NBA career last season, Hartenstein is on his way to doing it again in 2025-26. He’s recorded at least 13 rebounds in five games and is responsible for six double-doubles. Hartenstein is ranked well within the top-50 in nine-cat formats, and his skill set is such that maintaining that production level is a realistic possibility. The Thunder play three games during Week 4, starting with the Warriors on Tuesday.

Mitchell continues to shine for the Thunder, recording his fourth 20-point game of the season on Sunday. While fantasy managers are right to wonder what will happen once the reigning champions have their complete rotation, that’s a problem for another day. Until Jalen Williams and Luguentz Dort return from their injuries and are playing starter’s minutes, Mitchell needs to be rostered. And he may even be a hold once those two return. He’s been that good thus far.

Holmgren has scored 20 points or more in just three games this season, including Sunday’s win in Memphis. The good news for fantasy managers is that his value isn’t derived solely from scoring. He recorded another solid stat line against the Grizzlies and is providing top-25 value in nine-cat formats. The Thunder have three games on the Week 4 schedule, and fantasy managers will need to account for Holmgren potentially missing a game due to the Tuesday/Wednesday back-to-back.

Despite getting off to a slow start, Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder were dominant in the second half. The reigning MVP shot 6-of-8 from the field in the second half, and there were also frequent trips to the foul line. The result was his tenth game this season with at least 30 points. Gilgeous-Alexander remains one of the best players to have rostered in fantasy basketball, regardless of league format. The only negative is that Oklahoma City plays three games during Week 4 instead of four.

DeRozan was limited to 29 minutes on Friday in the blowout loss to OKC. In his minutes, he shot efficiently and logged more three-point makes against the Thunder than he had combined prior to Friday’s contest.

Westbrook logged his third-straight 20-point game of the season on Friday, which was again highlighted by strong overall shooting efficiency and high production from beyond the arc. The veteran guard also found success on the glass, produced as a passer, and got his teammates involved against his former team. Even in Year 18, Westbrook has proven capable of stuffing the stat sheet and providing value in fantasy leagues, especially now as he’s demonstrating an ability to be an efficient scorer. He’s certainly worthy of a roster spot.

Mitchell once again filled in for Luguentz Dort and again provided the Thunder with solid production. He didn’t reach the same 20-point mark as he did against the Trail Blazers on Wednesday, but managed to supplement a nice scoring outing on Friday with a season-high 10 assists. The double-double marked the first of the season for the second-year guard, while he compiled four stocks on the defensive end. Mitchell continues to produce in his sophomore season and has turned himself into a roster-worthy player in fantasy leagues.
