Claxton and Dëmin were initially probable for Sunday’s game, so the upgrades in status were expected. They will occupy their usual places in the Nets starting lineup. While Claxton is worth rostering in 12-team formats, Dëmin is a solid option in deeper formats.

George had a chance to put Washington ahead in the final seconds but uncorked an errant pass that went out of bounds, sending the Wizards to their 14th straight defeat. The 21-year-old forward has been one of the club’s few standouts this season, delivering seventh-round value for fantasy purposes, averaging 16.5 points through 15 games. The Wizards will attempt to turn things around when they open a two-game week with a showdown against the Hawks on Tuesday night.

Whitmore didn’t play a ton in this one, but he still managed to make a sizeable impact, shooting 70 percent from the floor and grabbing seven rebounds to reach the 20-point mark for just the second time this season. The 21-year-old former first-round pick’s upside is limited by his reduced role in Washington at the moment.

Due to a sore left hip flexor, Johnson will miss a game for the first time in his young NBA career. While the rookie’s absence does not affect fantasy basketball, it leaves the Wizards short of a bench option. Cam Whitmore and Corey Kispert are the reserves most likely to absorb the minutes that would have gone to Johnson.

Dëmin, who has started Brooklyn’s last seven games, is dealing with a sore neck and jawline. However, the probable tag suggests that the rookie will ultimately be cleared to play. If Dëmin can’t play, Terance Mann will take on more of the playmaking responsibilities. Even with an expanded role, Mann hasn’t been the most dependable fantasy option this season.

Claxton is dealing with a sprained left elbow. While he is listed as probable on the initial injury report for Sunday, the Nets’ starting center is a left-handed shooter. If Claxton can’t play against Toronto, Day’Ron Sharpe will likely move into the starting lineup.

Johnson is dealing with left hip flexor soreness. The 19-year-old guard left Friday night’s game against the Raptors with the injury.

Here’s an oversimplification: Porter was able to get whatever shot he wanted from anywhere on the floor against an undersized Celtics squad. He eclipsed 20 points for the eighth straight game and posted his fifth 30-point outing of the season, drilling four of six from deep and shooting nearly 62 percent overall as Boston had no answers for his blend of size, speed and athleticism. The 27-year-old scoring machine has delivered third-round fantasy production so far, averaging 24.9 points, 7.7 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 0.8 steals through 14 games.

Claxton took full advantage of Boston’s lackluster frontcourt as he seemed to be able to get to the rim whenever he wanted against relatively inexperienced big men Neemias Queta and Luka Garza. The double-digit assists were the real surprise here as it was the first time he was in double figures in that department since last March. He’s averaging 14.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.3 blocks through 15 games this season.

It doesn’t totally show up on the stat sheet, but Clowney was a real X-factor in this contest as he relentlessly attacked the rim early on, finishing the first half with 14 points while also blocking three shots on the defensive end of the floor. He cooled off a bit in the second half but led the Nets in minutes over the final two quarters. He would’ve had an even bigger night offensively had he not gone ice-cold from three-point range, hitting just three of 11 attempts from distance.

With Alex Sarr and Marvin Bagley out due to injury, Vukčević made his first start of the season on Friday. However, despite the opportunity, there was no reason for fantasy managers to consider streaming the third-year forward/center. Vukčević played only 17 minutes, as Washington went small for extended stretches. His place within the rotation for Saturday’s game against the Wizards depends on the availability of Sarr and Bagley.

On a night when Keyonte George (5/3/4/0/2 with one three-pointer) struggled, shooting 2-of-7 from the field, Johnson had a solid outing off the bench. The rookie guard hit double figures for the fourth time in his last five games, with the 14 being the most he’s scored since November 7 (season-high 19 vs. Cleveland). Johnson isn’t at the point where he can be of much value to fantasy managers currently. Still, rookies on rebuilding teams tend to be useful during the “silly season.”

McCollum was the only Wizards player to score 15 or more points on Friday, but this season has been a struggle regarding his fantasy value. Shooting 40.5 percent from the field, which would be the lowest percentage of his career, the veteran guard is ranked outside the top-150 in eight- and nine-cat formats. With the Wizards rebuilding, McCollum’s ceiling is lower, and managers also have to factor in the possibility that his minutes decrease later in the season.

Not only will the Wizards be without Alex Sarr for Friday’s game, but Marvin Bagley is also out due to injury. Vukčević is the next man up, and while a risky streaming option, Washington doesn’t have many options to fill the void at center. Anthony Gill should play rotation minutes off the bench. The other four starters are unchanged.

No surprise here as Bagley was originally listed as doubtful with a hip injury. The 26-year-old power forward will join Alex Sarr (toe) on the sidelines for Friday’s game against the Raptors. Tristan Vukčević is set to pick up significant minutes in this one and is worth streaming.

Friday’s game will be the second Sarr misses due to a toe injury. However, with backup Marvin Bagley (hip) also out, the Wizards will have to rely on Tristan Vukčević and Anthony Gill to fill the void. Of the two, Vukčević offers a higher ceiling, but neither player is a must-stream.

Sarr did not play in Wednesday’s loss to the Timberwolves, with Marvin Bagley replacing him in the starting lineup. However, with Bagley (hip) doubtful for Friday night, Sarr’s availability is even more critical. If both players are unavailable, the Wizards will have to rely on a rotation of Tristan Vukčević and Anthony Gill.

Filling in for the injured Alex Sarr, Bagley played 31 minutes in Wednesday’s loss to the Timberwolves. However, he landed hard on his hip while attempting to grab a rebound, which led to Bagley’s appearance on the injury report. With Sarr questionable for Friday’s game, Tristan Vukčević will figure more prominently in the Wizards’ rotation. He is only worth streaming if Sarr and Bagley can’t play.

After totaling seven points on 2-of-11 shooting in his prior two appearances, Coulibaly needed a night like Wednesday. He only missed one shot from the field, and the final stat line was only lacking in the steals category. Coulibaly’s inconsistent offense is what holds him back in fantasy, as he’s only shooting 42 percent from the field. However, he’s shot 58.3 percent from the field over the past two weeks, which is why he’s been a third-round player during this stretch.

With Alex Sarr (toe) out, Bagley made his first start of the season on Wednesday. He had a good night, shooting over 50 percent from the field and recording a near-complete stat line. Bagley is only rostered in one percent of Yahoo! leagues, so there weren’t many managers willing to roll the dice. However, he’ll be worth a look in deep leagues if Sarr misses more time. Tristan Vukčević served as the backup center on Wednesday, finishing with seven points, five rebounds, one assist and one three-pointer in 20 minutes.

George continues to flourish, most recently doing so on a night when the Wizards were without Alex Sarr. The second-year wing has scored at least 20 points on five occasions this season, including each of his last two appearances. In fantasy basketball, only Sarr has been more valuable than George among Wizards players thus far. Given how well Kyshawn has played, that’s unlikely to change anytime soon.

Wednesday’s absence will be the first of the season for Sarr, who has been a fantasy standout so far.

Sharpe hit double figures for the third time this season on Tuesday, and he’s produced respectable scoring and rebounding averages over the last two weeks. During this stretch, he’s averaged 7.3 points, 5.9 rebounds and 2.1 assists, but the defensive stats have been lacking on most nights. And with Nic Claxton (7/11/3/0/1) ahead of him in the pecking order, Sharpe’s fantasy ceiling is extremely limited. He’s only worth rostering on nights when Clax is unavailable.

After shooting 27.3 percent from three in his lone season at BYU, Dëmin was not expected by many to be as productive a perimeter shooter as he’s been. The rookie shot 4-of-7 from deep on Tuesday and is averaging 1.8 three-pointers per game at a respectable 36 percent clip. Dëmin is shooting 37.6 percent from the field overall, and that needs to change if he’s to become a player who should be rostered in more than six percent of Yahoo! leagues as he currently is.

Since missing the Nets’ November 3 loss to the Timberwolves, Porter has scored at least 21 points in seven straight games. During this stretch, the Nets forward has averaged 27.0 points, 7.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.0 steals and 3.4 three-pointers in 33.2 minutes, shooting 48.4 percent from the field and 89.6 percent from the foul line. That’s the production many fantasy managers hoped Porter would provide in his new home, posting gaudy numbers for a rebuilding team. The lone concern for the rest of the season is a potential shutdown as the front office prioritizes maximizing its draft lottery odds.

Porter fell just short of a triple-double as he powered the Nets to their second win of the season in a battle between Eastern Conference bottom-dwellers. He dominated the first half, knocking down six of his first eight shots and scoring 19 points to give Brooklyn a 10-point halftime lead, then tacked on 15 more after the break as the Nets cruised to a comfortable victory. The 24-year-old has emerged as Brooklyn’s go-to option this season, averaging 23.3 points and 7.7 rebounds through 11 games. The Nets face a three-game week ahead, including back-to-back matchups with the Celtics before taking on the Raptors next weekend.

George knocked down five of 10 attempts from beyond the arc, finishing just shy of his second 30-point outing of the season. It was an impressive individual showing, but it wasn’t enough to keep Washington from dropping its 11th straight game, falling to 1-12 on the year. The 21-year-old has averaged 19.7 points over his last three contests, performing at roughly a fifth-round level for fantasy purposes during that stretch. The Wizards will attempt to turn things around this week when they face the Timberwolves, Raptors and Bulls in road tilts.

Claxton did a little bit of everything for Brooklyn against a Washington squad that had zero answers from a defensive standpoint, hitting five of his seven shots from the field while getting to the line nine times.

MPJ provided his usual supply of buckets, but his playmaking was what was intriguing. His previous career-high for assists was six, but he matched that mark in the first quarter and surpassed it by halftime. He didn’t add any more dimes after the break, but he was still able to have an excellent night despite the loss. MPJ will continue to be a fantasy stud on a tanking team, though managers shouldn’t expect him to dish out that many assists often.

Clowney has been an effective scoring option as a starter for the Nets, and that trend continued in this game. He has started the last six games for Brooklyn and has scored in double figures in five of those. This was a subpar shooting performance from him, with half his points coming from the free throw line and the other half coming from beyond the arc. Still, his starting spot feels safe, and he has an intriguing matchup coming up on Sunday to close out the week.

Williams has been a solid reserve for Brooklyn this season, where he has been an inconsistent source of offense. He has been able to hit shots from deep frequently, but he has been more valuable to the Nets than he has been for fantasy managers. He was one of five players to score in double figures for Brooklyn, but that wasn’t enough for them to get a win. Williams should be left on the waiver wire unless he gets the opportunity to start, which has yet to happen this season.

The nine assists were a career-high for the second-year wing, who is ranked just outside the top-50 in eight-cat formats.

Powell may not have moved into the starting lineup in the aftermath of Cam Thomas’ hamstring injury, but the rookie has received more playing time to show what he can do. After logging 27 minutes in Friday’s loss to the Pistons, Powell played 23 on Sunday and produced his best offensive showing of the season. Powell, who entered Sunday 0-of-3 from deep, made all three of his attempts against the Knicks. He isn’t a player who should be rostered in fantasy leagues right now. Still, Powell’s name should be filed away in preparation for the “silly season,” especially with the Nets prioritizing getting a good draft pick next spring.

In the two-plus games the Nets have played since losing Cam Thomas to a hamstring injury on November 5, Porter has tallied 32, 28 and 25 points. And while the shot attempts have increased, MPJ has shot 47 percent or better in each of those outings. Whether he can continue to shoot at the clip or not, Porter is in a spot where he can put up massive individual numbers. The lone concern would be Porter losing out on minutes so the youngsters can get additional run, but that should not be an issue in early November. The Nets play three games during Week 4.

Sharpe was on a roll Sunday night, making all three of his field-goal attempts and going 4-of-4 from the foul line. Unfortunately, tightness in his left hamstring ended the Nets’ center’s night with 1:49 remaining in the third quarter. Brooklyn opens a three-game Week 4 at home against the Raptors on Tuesday, and Sharpe’s injury could mean rotation minutes for Danny Wolf if he misses time. Wolf, one of Brooklyn’s five first-round picks in June, was on assignment with the team’s G League affiliate on Sunday.
