Wagner registered 13 points (6-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 19 minutes during Tuesday's 114-109 loss to the Bucks.

Wagner has reached double figures in six straight games, but his workloads remain fairly low. In that span, he's averaging 20.0 minutes per contest with 12.8 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.3 steals, 1.0 blocks and 0.8 three-pointers. He's been a viable streamer to open December.

Bitadze totaled 12 points (6-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt), 14 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 38 minutes during Tuesday's 114-109 loss to Milwaukee.

Bitadze recorded his eighth double-double of the season in the loss. Orlando continues to roll with a jumbo frontcourt featuring Bitadze and Wendell Carter together, so there are plenty of reasons to like his fantasy upside going forward. In five December outings, Bitadze is averaging 12.0 points, 10.6 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.2 blocks and 1.0 steals.

Hartenstein racked up 10 points (5-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 118-104 victory over the Mavericks.

This was Hartenstein's seventh double-double of the season in just nine appearances. On a per-game basis, the center is on pace to return sixth-round value in nine-category formats with averages of 11.6 points, 12.8 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.2 blocks on 55.4 percent shooting from the field.

Lively registered five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 FT), 13 rebounds, five assists and one block in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 118-104 loss to Oklahoma City.

Lively was moved to the bench for the start of the second half in favor of Daniel Gafford, but the former still saw a much larger workload. Lively recorded at least five assists for the third time in his career and posted double-digit rebounds for the seventh time this season. He's on pace to record 10th-round value in nine-category formats for the season due to efficient shooting with strong rebounding and shot-blocking.

Utah recalled Filipowski from the G League's Salt Lake City Stars on Wednesday.

Filipowski logged 15 minutes in Tuesday's 106-104 loss to the San Diego Clippers, finishing with two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists. He'll be a candidate to see more minutes with Utah if the franchise unloads some veterans at the trade deadline.

Carlson ended with no counting stats in one minute during Tuesday's 118-104 victory over Dallas.

Carlson was recalled from the G League's Oklahoma City Blue on Tuesday after being assigned earlier in the day and appeared in an NBA game for just the fifth time this season, with all but one appearance coming in garbage time. Despite the fact the Thunder currently have just one reliable center option, Carlson has been unable to force his way into the rotation, with the team opting to run with a small-ball lineup whenever Isaiah Hartenstein isn't on the floor.

Williams underwent successful surgery Wednesday to repair multiple tears in his right knee, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.

Williams was diagnosed with a torn ACL, meniscus and associated ligaments in his right knee back on Nov. 24. He was previously ruled out for the remainder of the 2024-25 season, and he's expected to return in 9-12 months. He finished the campaign with averages of 10.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.8 blocks across 29.9 minutes per game over 16 appearances. He should be considered questionable to be ready in time for the 2025-26 season.

Portis registered 22 points (9-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 32 minutes during Tuesday's 114-109 victory over the Magic.

After a modest start to the season, Portis has gotten things going in the right direction over the past two games. He has played at least 30 minutes in each of the two games, averaging 22.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.0 steals, 2.0 blocks and 3.5 three-pointers. While he won't be this good every night, it is clear that what he had been doing in the previous weeks was largely below expectations.

Antetokounmpo totaled 37 points (15-24 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 7-12 FT), seven rebounds, four blocks, two steals and one assist over 36 minutes during Tuesday's 114-109 NBA Cup Quarterfinals win over the Magic.

Antetokounmpo recorded a game-high 37 points while leading the Bucks in swats Tuesday. The two-time MVP made his presence felt on both ends of the floor, racking up six steals-plus-blocks for the first time over 22 regular-season outings this year. The superstar also logged his 15th 30-plus-point outing and currently leads the league in scoring, averaging 32.7 points per game thus far.

Washington (illness) won't play in Tuesday's NBA Cup Quarterfinal game against the Thunder, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.

Washington has been downgraded from questionable to out Tuesday due to an illness. The 26-year-old forward's next chance to suit up will come Saturday if Dallas is able to advance in the NBA Cup.

The Mavericks are expecting Washington (illness) to miss Tuesday's NBA Cup Quarterfinal game against the Thunder, NBA writer Marc Stein reports.

Washington is officially listed as questionable for Tuesday's contest but is now expected to sit out. Naji Marshall (illness) will likely receive increased playing time in his absence.

Isaac (hamstring) won't play in Tuesday's NBA Cup Quarterfinals game against the Bucks, Philip Rossman-Reich of OrlandoMagicDaily.com reports.

Isaac will miss his third straight contest Tuesday after being downgraded from questionable to out due to right hamstring soreness. Isaac's next chance to suit up could come Saturday if Orlando is able to advance to the NBA Cup Semifinals.

Dort ended with 11 points (4-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 118-104 win over Dallas.

On top of a productive outing on the stat sheet, Dort helped to limit Luka Doncic to 16 points with six turnovers. Dort has increased his output on the defensive end this season, putting him on pace to return eighth-round value in nine-category formats with averages of 9.9 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.2 steals, 0.9 blocks and 2.1 three-pointers.

Prosper had six points (2-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist over 12 minutes during Tuesday's 118-104 loss to the Thunder.

With P.J. Washington (illness) out of the lineup, Prosper saw a small handful of extra minutes. He's been out of the rotation for most of the season, and he's rumored to be on the trade block if the Mavericks look to upgrade their roster at the deadline.

Marshall (illness) tallied 19 points (7-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 29 minutes in Tuesday's 118-104 loss to the Thunder.

Despite the Mavericks having both Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving available for the NBA Cup quarterfinal matchup, Marshall -- who had missed the team's previous four contests -- finished as the surprise co-leader in scoring for Dallas along with Klay Thompson. Though he hadn't displayed much offensive game during the first four seasons of his career in New Orleans, Marshall has shown growth so far during his time in Dallas, as he's averaging a career-high 11.9 points per contest. He's been especially hot over his last eight appearances, posting 17.8 points per contest on 61.1 percent shooting from the field and 46.4 percent from three-point range. Both marks are well above his career-long rates of 44.3 and 31.3 percent, respectively, so fantasy managers who have been riding the wave of Marshall's recent production should anticipate some regression eventually heading his way.

Jackson had five points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and two rebounds across eight minutes during Tuesday's 114-109 victory over Orlando.

Despite continuing to start, Jackson once again came up well short when it comes to tangible production. Over the past month, Jackson has averaged 3.8 points and 3.2 rebounds in 19.3 minutes per game. Although he is listed and typically plays as a starter, his playing time and subsequent production reflect that of a secondary rotational piece.

Coach Jason Kidd said that Marshall (illness) will play under a minutes restriction in Tuesday's NBA Cup Quarterfinals matchup against the Thunder, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

The 26-year-old will return to action after a four-game absence due to an illness, though Kidd expects he'll be limited to around 25 minutes. Over his last five outings (three starts), Marshall has averaged 19.0 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 25.4 minutes per contest.

Moody (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's NBA Cup Quarterfinals matchup against the Rockets.

Moody aggravated a left knee injury after playing only five minutes during Sunday's win over the Timberwolves. With the 22-year-old sidelined, Lindy Waters and Kyle Anderson could see an uptick in playing time.

Richardson had an injection in his left heel Wednesday and will miss at least one week, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Richardson has struggled to stay healthy for Miami this season and will now miss at least two more games. He's been out of the rotation lately, so this setback for Richardson doesn't have many fantasy implications.

Thompson notched 19 points (7-14 FG, 5-10 3Pt) and four rebounds over 28 minutes during Tuesday's 118-104 loss to the Thunder.

Thompson had a productive outing offensively, but his peripheral stats were lacking. That's been the case for most of the regular season, as he's averaging just 3.5 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.3 blocks in 27.6 minutes per contest.

Boston assigned Scheierman to the G League's Maine Celtics on Tuesday.

Scheierman has played a total of 11 minutes in one December appearance for Boston, so he'll continue to supplement his reps with G League stints.

The Raptors announced Wednesday that Barnes will be re-evaluated in one week with a right ankle sprain, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.

Despite a re-evaluation coming up in one week, ESPN's Shams Charania reported Wednesday that Barnes is expected to miss several weeks of action and that's what fantasy managers should be prepared for. Davion Mitchell could see more playmaking responsibility in the meantime, while players such as Ochai Agbaji, Kelly Olynyk, Ja'Kobe Walter and Jamal Shead could see increased roles.

Utah recalled Sensabaugh from the G League's Salt Lake City Stars on Tuesday.

Prior to getting recalled, Sensabaugh played 27 minutes in Tuesday's 106-104 loss to the San Diego Clippers. He notched 21 points (9-19 FG, 3-10 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and one steal.

Barnes is expected to miss several weeks after spraining his right ankle in Monday's 113-108 loss to the Knicks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Toronto has yet to provide an update on the results of the MRI that Barnes underwent Tuesday, but the projected multi-week recovery timeline provided by Sharania suggests that the forward is dealing with at least a moderate ankle sprain. Barnes had been seeing most of his playing time at point guard of late while Immanuel Quickley (elbow) has been out indefinitely, but Davion Mitchell could now be on track to step in as Toronto's primary facilitator until one of Barnes or Quickley return. The absence of Barnes could also open up some extra minutes for players such as Ochai Agbaji, Kelly Olynyk, Ja'Kobe Walter and Jamal Shead.

Lillard had 28 points (8-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 10-10 FT), two rebounds, nine assists and one steal across 39 minutes during Tuesday's 114-109 win over the Magic.

The Bucks have turned their season around, going 9-2 in their last 11 games. Lillard has been instrumental during this turnaround, averaging 25.5 points, 8.5 assists, 4.3 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 3.5 three-pointers on 46.3 percent shooting in that span.

Wallace ended with 11 points (4-10 FG, 3-9 3Pt), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 118-104 win over the Mavericks.

This was one of Wallace's best all-around performances of the season as he made a strong case to remain with the starters. In 13 starts this campaign, Wallace has mostly been quiet with averages of 7.2 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.5 assists. Fantasy managers will want to see if he can string together some productive showings going forward.

Dinwiddie racked up nine points (3-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, four assists and three steals across 23 minutes during Tuesday's 118-104 loss to the Thunder.

Dinwiddie had an inefficient night on the offensive end, something that's been the norm for most of the season. Through 23 regular-season contests, he's hitting 40.1 percent from the field with averages of 8.2 points, 3.0 assists, 1.8 rebounds, 0.7 steals and 1.4 three-pointers. He's hard to trust outside of deeper fantasy formats.

Doncic provided 16 points (5-15 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists and four steals across 40 minutes during Tuesday's 118-104 loss to the Thunder.

The Thunder were able to effectively slow Doncic down, limiting him to 16 points -- he's been held to 16 or fewer points just three times this season. Doncic also turned the ball over a season-high six times in the defeat. He was red hot coming into Tuesday and is still averaging 28.0 points, 10.6 rebounds, 8.6 assists, 3.4 steals and 4.0 three-pointers over his last five outings.

Los Angeles assigned James to the G League's South Bay Lakers on Tuesday.

James remains on the outside of the rotation at the NBA level, playing just three minutes in one lone December appearance. He'll continue to be a key player for South Bay going forward.

Williams was ruled out ahead of Tuesday's 118-104 loss to the Thunder due to a right thumb sprain.

One of Dallas' three two-way players, Williams has seen the overwhelming majority of his playing time in the G League this season, so his absence Tuesday didn't have any impact on head coach Jason Kidd's rotation. Williams will likely head back to the Texas Legends once he's moved past the thumb injury.
