Forward Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics is doubtful for Sunday’s game against the Portland Trail Blazers due to a knee injury.
WHAT IT MEANS: Tatum’s availability is currently in doubt due to a right knee contusion. If Tatum is ruled out, expect Sam Hauser to play more forward minutes.
Tatum currently has 26.3 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 4.6 assists in his projected stat line.
Spurs’ Keldon Johnson (foot) is expected to play on Sunday.
Forward Keldon Johnson of the San Antonio Spurs is expected to play for the squad on Sunday against the Philadelphia 76ers.
WHAT IT MEANS: Johnson had been out recently due to a strain to his left foot. He is now considered likely for Sunday night’s game, though. Over the course of the next day, keep a loose check on his status.
Johnson is expected by our models to play 29.6 minutes and finish with 16.9 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.9 assists, and 28.5 FanDuel points.
Anfernee Simons of Portland (knee) is still sidelined on Sunday.
Anfernee Simons, a guard with the Portland Trail Blazers, will not play against the Boston Celtics on Saturday due to a knee injury.
WHAT IT MEANS: Due to left knee tendonitis, Simons will miss his ninth straight game. When facing his previous side, Dalano Banton should be expected to play a larger offensive role.
Banton currently has 18.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 4.6 assists projected for him.
Richaun Holmes (toe) is doubtful for Sunday’s Wizards game.
Richaun Holmes, a forward with the Washington Wizards, is doubtful to play in the team’s game against the Toronto Raptors on Sunday.
WHAT IT MEANS: A huge toe contusion on Holmes’ left has kept him out of action recently. He is now considered uncertain for the competition on Sunday night. Over the next 24 hours, keep a careful check on his status. Tristan Vukcevic should get another start if Holmes sits down once more.
Holmes is averaging 5.0 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 13.0 FanDuel points in 40 games this season.
