Our weekly Fantasy Basketball Planner is the essential guide to setting your lineup for the upcoming scoring period. Every week, we provide you with news and notes for each team, tracking hot and cold players, injuries and rotation changes.

Atlanta Hawks
Schedule: @ORL, NJ, @SA, IND
Good Plays: Josh Smith, Al Horford
Bad Plays: Maurice Evans, Zaza Pachulia
Toss Ups: Jamal Crawford, Marvin Williams, Mike Bibby
Injury Report: Joe Johnson (elbow/January)
Notes: With Johnson out for 4-6 weeks, Evans moved into the starting lineup this week. However, Evans will serve as merely a place-holder in the starting lineup for Crawford, whom we expect to see the biggest boost. He becomes worthy of activating as a No. 3/4 guard in most standard formats. ... Williams should also see an increase in touches. Expect him to see double-figure shot attempts on a regular basis, making him a sleeper to benefit here. ... The Hawks have four low-scoring matchups ahead of them in Week 7. Their opponents allow an average of 96.3 points per game. That makes Williams and Bibby less desirable as low-end plays barring a huge weekend.

Boston Celtics
Schedule: DEN, @PHI, @CHA
Good Plays: Rajon Rondo, Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett
Bad Plays: Nate Robinson, Marquis Daniels, Jermaine O'Neal
Toss Ups: Shaquille O'Neal, Glen Davis
Injury Report: Nate Robinson (foot/day-to-day), Jermaine O'Neal (knee/out indefinitely), Delonte West (wrist/February) Kendrick Perkins (knee/February)
Notes: The Celtics are quietly getting solid production out of Shaq and Davis in the front court. ... Shaq entered the weekend averaging 14.8 points and 8.4 over his last five games. ... Davis entered the weekend riding a three-game hot streak during which he averaged 17.0 points and 7.3 rebounds. ... Both are are worthy of activating as potential stopgaps off the waiver wire with no signs of a return for Jermaine O'Neal.

Charlotte Bobcats
Schedule: DEN, @IND, BOS
Good Plays: Gerald Wallace, Stephen Jackson
Bad Plays: Nazr Mohammed, Shaun Livingston
Toss Ups: D.J. Augustin, Boris Diaw, Tyrus Thomas
Injury Report: No significant injuries.
Notes: Augustin is struggling from beyond the arc (4 of 19 over last five games), but is averaging a 16-7-4 stat line in that span. That is just about must-start quality in most formats. ... Diaw is getting playing time in the high 30s per game, leading to low-double digit scoring on a consistent basis with around five boards, three dimes and a steal per game. He is also providing good 3-point shooting and is a solid category-league option. ... Thomas scored 26 points with 11 points against the Knicks on Nov. 24, but was held below 10 points in each of his next three games. He remains far too spotty to trust in Fantasy despite his upside.

Chicago Bulls
Schedule: OKC, CLE, LAL, MIN
Good Plays: Derrick Rose, Joakim Noah, Luol Deng
Bad Plays: Taj Gibson, Kyle Korver, Keith Bogans, Ronnie Brewer
Toss Ups: Carlos Boozer
Injury Report: No significant injuries.
Notes: Boozer is finally back, but he is likely to require a few games before he gets back into playing shape having missed the entire preseason and regular season to this point. He should be considered a low-end play for Week 7, but has high-end appeal in the long-term. ... Boozer's return does mean that Gibson's minutes and touches will likely decline by the game. He is also dealing with plantar fasciitis. Avoid him. ... Joakim Noah was held without a rebound on Wednesday night. While there is some concern that Boozer will begin to cut into Noah's value, Boozer had nothing to do with that on Wednesday as he had just five points and two boards in his return.

Cleveland Cavaliers
Schedule: @PHI, CHI, @HOU, @OKC
Good Plays: Mo Williams
Bad Plays: Joey Graham, Jamario Moon, Ryan Hollins
Toss Ups: Antawn Jamison, J.J. Hickson, Anderson Varejao, Daniel Gibson, Ramon Sessions, Anthony Parker,
Injury Report: No significant injuries.
Notes: The four opponents the Cavs will face in Week 7 allow an average of 101.9 points per game. Expect a high-volume week. ... Graham has been unproductive in his five games since being named a starter, averaging just 8.4 points and 3.0 rebounds. Even with high-scoring games ahead, we recommend avoiding him in anything but the deepest of leagues. ... Jamison has hit the skids this past week, being held to eight or fewer points in three of his last four games. The minutes are there, however, and we still view him as a decent low-end play given the matchups. ... Hickson is averaging just 7.0 points and 6.4 rebounds over his past five games, but could be in for a slight boost. Consider him in a pinch. ... Varejao is one of our favorite sleepers at center for Week 7, coming off a 16-and-12 effort against Boston. He is avearging 8.8 rebounds per game over his last five contests. He could average double-digit scoring to go along with the boards, blocks, steals this week.

Dallas Mavericks
Schedule: GS, NJ, UTA
Good Plays: Dirk Nowitzki, Jason Kidd, Jason Terry
Bad Plays: Brendan Haywood, Jose Juan Barea
Toss Ups: Tyson Chandler, Caron Butler, Shawn Marion
Injury Report: Roddy Beaubois (foot/mid-December)
Notes: Chandler is averaging 12.8 points and 13.8 rebounds over his last five games. He should start in any format. ... Haywood looked viable Wednesday with 10 boards and seven points in 21 minutes off the bench, but most of his production came in garbage time. ... Caron Butler is averaging a 15-1-3 stat line over his last five games. He remains just a low-end play for now. ... Marion is out-producing Butler, averaging a 15-1-7 stat line with a steal per game over the same span.

Denver Nuggets
Schedule: @CHA, @BOS, @TOR, @NY
Good Plays: Carmelo Anthony, Nene
Bad Plays: Ty Lawson, Chris Andersen, Shelden Williams, Gary Forbes
Toss Ups: Chauncey Billups, J.R. Smith, Arron Afflalo, Al Harrington
Injury Report: Kenyon Martin (knee/January)
Notes: Billups is back from his wrist injury and looked as productive as he has all season. He has looked plenty healthy in his first two games back and should be activated again in all formats. ... The return of Billups pushes Lawson back to an inconsistent backup role. ... Smith is coming off a pair of strong games, but beware of falling into a trap. He notched a 30-2-8 stat line against the Suns on Sunday with Carmelo Anthony missing nearly the entire game because he was sick. Then, he managed a 20-1-10 stat line his next time out. This time, 'Melo was ejected in the third quarter. Smith has upside, but George Karl has preferred Afflalo's consistency. At the first sign of cooling off, Smith could have the rug pulled from under him. ... Afflalo is averaging a 12-3-5 stat line over his last five games. He offers that level of production with solid 3-point shooting. ... Harrington has been held under 10 points in three of his last five games.

Detroit Pistons
Schedule: @HOU, @NO, @MIN, TOR
Good Plays: Rodney Stuckey
Bad Plays: Greg Monroe, Austin Daye, Jason Maxiell, Will Bynum, Tracy McGrady
Toss Ups: Tayshaun Prince, Charlie Villanueva, Richard Hamilton, Ben Gordon, Ben Wallace
Injury Report: Jonas Jerebko (Achilles'/February)
Notes: The Pistons play a favorable four-game slate with three games against teams that allow well over 100 points per game. The average points allowed per game of their Week 7 opponents is 102.3. ... Coach John Kuester insists on playing the matchups at power forward, creating a very shaky situation for Daye, Maxiell and Monroe. The only player who remains mostly unaffected is Villanueva. Despite favorable matchups, we recommend avoiding the likes of Moroe, Daye and Maxiell due to the inconsistency. ... Prince may be looking at more than his usual 11-12 shots per game in what figures to be a high-volume week for the Pistons. He is averaging 15-3-5 over his last five games, but could see an improvement this week. ... Hamilton is averaging 13-4-3 over his last five games. He could hit the mid-teens with a light increase across the line given the matchups. ... Gordon has been held below 10 points in two of his last three games. He may also see a 15-point game here or there over the course of the scoring period, but remains too inconsistent to trust. ... Wallace should provide more of the same. Rebounds and blocks are his specialty. Scoring is not, even with high-scoring games ahead, don't expect a boost there.

Golden State Warriors
Schedule: @DAL, @SA, MIA
Good Plays: Monta Ellis, Stephen Curry, David Lee
Bad Plays: Reggie Williams, Jeff Adrien
Toss Ups: Dorell Wright, Andris Biedrins
Injury Report: No significant injuries.
Notes: The Warriors have perhaps the toughest Week 7 schedule in the league. They will play three teams that allow an average of 94.6 points per game. ... Wright is averaging a 16-4-5 stat line over his last five games to go with plus 3-point shooting. He is a decent start in most formats despite the matchups, but be aware of a potential dip. ... Biedrins is avearging 14.0 rebounds over his last five games, but has scored more than eight points just once in that span. It was a 28-point effort go with 21 rebounds on Nov. 26 in Memphis, but that was before Lee returned. Expect rebounds, but not much scoring in Week 7.

Houston Rockets
Schedule: DET, @MIL, CLE
Good Plays: Luis Scola, Kevin Martin
Bad Plays: Aaron Brooks, Yao Ming, Chuck Hayes, Courtney Lee, Chase Budinger, Jordan Hill
Toss Ups: Kyle Lowry, Shane Battier, Brad Miller
Injury Report: Yao Ming (ankle/could return Dec. 7), Aaron Brooks (ankle/could return Dec. 10)
Notes: Yao is practicing lightly and is targeting Tuesday for a possible return, which means he could be available for all three games for Houston. However, a limited Yao is likely and with the Rockets playing a back-to-back set over the weekend there is a strong possibility he could be reserved for one of those two games. Keep him reserved where possible. ... Miller stands to see around 20-25 minutes per game regardless of whether or not Yao plays, but his stock takes a hit once Yao is back to what passes as full strength. He should be treated as only an emergency fill-in option off the waiver wire at center. ... Brooks could return by the weekend, but the back-to-back set makes it likely he is looking at just one game -- at best -- in Week 7. ... Lowry is averaging a 10-8-4 stat line over his last five games. Daring owners who are not overly concerned about Brooks' possible return could squeeze one more good scoring period out of him. ... Shane Battier has two games with 17 or more points in his last four games. He has just five points combined in the other two games. If his 3-point shot is not falling, he offers very little.

Indiana Pacers
Schedule: TOR, @MIL, CHA, @ATL
Good Plays: Danny Granger, Roy Hibbert
Bad Plays: Josh McRoberts, Tyler Hansbrough, T.J. Ford, James Posey, Paul George
Toss Ups: Darren Collison, Mike Dunleavy, Brandon Rush
Injury Report: No significant injuries.
Notes: Collison seems to be settling into a comfort zone. While it is not quite at the level that he managed last season in a breakout year for the Hornets, the 15-5-4 stat line he has going over his last five games makes him a quality play in most formats. ... Coach Jim O'Brien is mixing and matching with Dunleavy and Rush based upon matchups. That is leading to inconsistent production from both players. Avoid this situation until somebody can emerge.

L.A. Clippers
Schedule: SAC, LAL, MEM, ORL
Good Plays: Blake Griffin, Eric Gordon
Bad Plays: Al-Farouq Aminu, DeAndre Jordan, Craig Smith, Ryan Gomes, Rasual Butler, Randy Foye
Toss Ups: Baron Davis, Eric Bledsoe, Chris Kaman
Injury Report: Chris Kaman (ankle/day-to-day), Randy Foye (hamstring/day-to-day)
Notes: Kaman is "hoping" to play on Friday night. Fantasy owners will have to use the weekend in order to determine his viability for Week 7, but barring setbacks most owners will want to get him back in their active lineups. ... Davis returned from a 10-game absence to play 24 minutes off the bench on Wednesday night. He will be eased back into the rotation, but he played in crunch time Wednesday night and seems to be ready for more minutes. ... More minutes for Davis means an end for Bledsoe's Fantasy prominence.

L.A. Lakers
Schedule: WAS, @LAC, @CHI, @NJ
Good Plays: Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom
Bad Plays: Ron Artest, Matt Barnes, Derek Fisher, Steve Blake
Toss Ups: Shannon Brown
Injury Report: Pau Gasol (hamstring/day-to-day), Andrew Bynum (knee/late December)
Notes: Gasol tweakeed a hamstring on Wednesday night. While he said following Wednesday's game that he expects to play on Friday, the team considers him a game-time decision. Plan on having him active in Week 7, but monitor his situation closely over the weekend for setbacks. ... Brown remains a very spotty scorer, but positive matchups against three teams that allow 100-plus points per game could have him in double figures two or three times in Week 7.

Memphis Grizzlies
Schedule: @UTA, @PHO, @LAC
Good Plays: Rudy Gay, Zach Randolph, Marc Gasol, Mike Conley
Bad Plays: Darrell Arthur, Xavier Henry, Hasheem Thabeet, Greivis Vasquez
Toss Ups: O.J. Mayo
Injury Report: Darrell Arthur (groin/day-to-day)
Notes: Any signs that Mayo's 23-point performance against the Warriors may have pointed toward a resurgence seem to have been a mirage. He followed that game with three pedestrian efforts, averaging 11.3 points, 1.3 assists and 2.3 rebounds. His move to the bench has not sparked a fire under him and the emergence of Conley as a scorer this season has cut into Mayo's potential for production. Avoid him until he can get his act together.

Miami Heat
Schedule: @MIL, @UTA, @GS, @SAC
Good Plays: LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh
Bad Plays: Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Erick Dampier, Joel Anthony, Carlos Arroyo, Mario Chalmers, Eddie House
Toss Ups: James Jones
Injury Report: Mike Miller (thumb/late December), Udonis Haslem (foot/April)
Notes: The Heat are getting virtually nothing from the combination of Ilgauskas, Dampier and Anthony at center. ... Chalmers has climbed the depth chart ahead of House, but is still playing just 20-25 minutes per game. ... Jones entered play on Thursday night 8 of 21 (38.1 percent) from beyond the arc over his last five games and 39 of 94 (41.5 percent) overall. He had not cracked double digits in nine straight games and should only be used in larger category leagues at this stage.

Milwaukee Bucks
Schedule: MIA, IND, HOU
Good Plays: Brandon Jennings
Bad Plays: Luc Richard Mbah a Moute
Toss Ups: Andrew Bogut, Drew Gooden, Ersan Ilyasova, Larry Sanders, John Salmons
Injury Report: Andrew Bogut (back/day-to-day), Carlos Delfino (concussion/mid-December),Michael Redd (knee/February)
Notes: Bogut said on Thursday that he was unsure whether or not he would be able to play on Saturday. Have healthy alternatives available. ... With Bogut out and Gooden banged up, Sanders had a wild stat line on Wednesday night with 14 points, 10 boards and eight blocks in 34 minutes. He will not be in line for 34 minutes on a regular basis, but he is worth taking a flier on in deeper leagues given how banged up the Bucks are up front. ... Gooden played just 10 minutes on Wednesday after missing two games. He is dealing with plantar fasciitis and should not be activated until he can prove he can produce while playing with what could be a lingering issue all season. ... While Gooden remains banged up, Ilyasova is looking at more minutes and touches. He is averaging 12 points and eight boards over his last five games and is worth activating in larger formats while you can. Matchups against the Heat (who can't seem to stop anybody up front) and the Rockets bode well for a productive week for Ilyasova. ... A 1 of 11 shooting night on Nov. 29 aside, Salmons has been a steady option for low-end double-digit scoring. His 21-point effort at Denver on Wednesday, however, harkened back to his numbers from a season ago. He is not all the way back yet, but those numbers are in there somewhere for Salmons.

Best Fantasy Schedules

2. Bulls OKC, @CLE, LAL, MIN
3. Timberwolves @NY, OKC, DET, @CHI
4. Cavaliers @PHI, CHI, @HOU, @OKC
5. Pistons @HOU, NO, @MIN, TOR

Minnesota Timberwolves
Schedule: @NY, OKC, DET, @CHI
Good Plays: Kevin Love, Michael Beasley
Bad Plays: Jonny Flynn, Anthony Tolliver, Sebastian Telfair
Toss Ups: Darko Milicic, Luke Ridnour
Injury Report: Jonny Flynn (hip/out until at least Dec. 6), Martell Webster (back/out indefinitely)
Notes: Flynn will play on Friday night in a D-League game. If all goes well, he would return to the Timberwolves as soon as Monday's game in New York. He has not played in a single competetive game this season and is likely going to need at least a week or two to get back to full strength. Avoid activating him, but he is well worth an add in your league if he is available. ... Flynn's potential return makes Ridnour a player to avoid as his minutes will slowly begin to decline. ... Expect the new and improved Darko to get up for Monday's game against one of his former teams in the Knicks. He should benefit from an up-tempo game against the Knicks and a matchup against a Thunder team with very little opposition up front.

New Jersey Nets
Schedule: @ATL, @DAL, LAL
Good Plays: Brook Lopez
Bad Plays: Derrick Favors, Troy Murphy, Terrence Williams
Toss Ups: Devin Harris, Jordan Farmar, Kris Humphries, Anthony Morrow, Travis Outlaw
Injury Report: Devin Harris (knee/out until at least Dec. 7)
Notes: Harris will be re-evaluated prior to Tuesday's game against the Hawks, but final word on his status may not be known until after the week. Be prepared to go without him, but Farmar would only be a suitable replacement option in weekly formats if Harris is ruled out for the entire week. ... Humphries continues to have his run of things at power forward, averaging 30 minutes over his last five games. His scoring is spotty at best, but he offers premium rebounding (11.2 over his last five games). ... Morrow and Outlaw have been alternating good and bad games for much of the entire season. Neither should be trusted as anything more than an injury replacement in deeper leagues.

New Orleans Hornets
Schedule: DET, OKC, @PHI
Good Plays: Chris Paul, David West, Emeka Okafor
Bad Plays: Jarrett Jack, Willie Green, Jason Smith, Marcus Thornton
Toss Ups: Trevor Ariza, Marco Belinelli
Injury Report: No significant injuries.
Notes: Ariza has scored exactly 10 points in three straight games going into the weekend, not exactly the stuff of Fantasy superstars. He is offering around five boards, two dimes and a steal per game, but is a low-end start at best. His primary asset at this stage seems to be his 3-point shooting. ... Belinelli is very quietly beginning to fade in New Orleans, seeing under 10 shots in four of his last five games. He has been reduced to being a spot 3-point shooter.

New York Knicks
Schedule: MIN, TOR, @WAS, DEN
Good Plays: Amar'e Stoudemire, Raymond Felton, Wilson Chandler
Bad Plays: Anthony Randolph, Ronny Turiaf, Kelenna Azubuike
Toss Ups: Danilo Gallinari, Landry Fields, Toney Douglas
Injury Report: Toney Douglas (hip/day-to-day), Kelenna Azubuike (knee/early December)
Notes: The Knicks have the most favorable schedule in Week 7, playing against four teams that allow over 100 points per game. Their opponents allow an average of 105.3 points per game. ... Expect Chandler and Gallinari to post excellent numbers. While Chandler is on a roll, Gallinari has struggled some over the last week with his shot. He is averaging 37.6 minutes per game over his last five contests and should do plenty with that type of playing time in Week 7. ... Fields is averaging 9.0 rebounds over his last five games. His offense has been spotty, but expect him to get a chance to average close 15 points per game in Week 7.

Oklahoma City Thunder
Schedule: @CHI, @MIN, @NO, CLE
Good Plays: Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, Jeff Green
Bad Plays: James Harden, Nenad Krstic, Thabo Sefolosha, Nick Collison
Toss Ups: Serge Ibaka
Injury Report: Kevin Durant (knee/day-to-day)
Notes: Durant was in a suit on Wednesday night in New Jersey, but there is no real indication that he is dealing with a long-term injury. We would be shocked if he does not play a full week in the upcoming scoring period. ... When Durant has been out of the lineup this season, Harden has thrived. With Durant expected back, however, he should be reserved. ... Ibaka has faded with the return of Green. He does stand to get starts for however long Durant remains sidelined, but is a player to avoid outside of daily formats for now.

Orlando Magic
Schedule: ATL, @POR, @UTA, @LAC
Good Plays: Dwight Howard, Jameer Nelson
Bad Plays: Brandon Bass, J.J. Redick, Quentin Richardson, Mickael Pietrus, Chris Duhon, Marcin Gortat
Toss Ups: Rashard Lewis, Vince Carter
Injury Report: Rashard Lewis (knee/day-to-day), J.J. Redick (illness/day-to-day)
Notes: Lewis left Wednesday's easy win over the Bulls, but the move was precautionary. Lewis should return over the weekend, but remains just a 3-point contributor. He is averaging just 14.0 points, 1.6 assists and 2.2 rebounds over his last five games. ... Carter looked plenty healthy in his second game back from a knee injury on Wednesday night, scoring 22 points. Get him back into active lineups.

Philadelphia 76ers
Schedule: CLE, BOS, NO
Good Plays: Andre Iguodala, Jrue Holiday, Elton Brand
Bad Plays: Evan Turner, Lou Williams, Spencer Hawes, Andres Nocioni, Marreese Speights
Toss Ups: Thaddeus Young
Injury Report: No significant injuries.
Notes: Since the return of Iguodala from his injury, Turner has become a non-factor. He is averaging just 3.6 points and 2.0 rebounds over his last five games. ... Williams is averaging 7.6 points and 3.8 assists over his last five. ... Young is averaging 11.6 points and 5.2 rebounds over his last five, useful in deeper formats. However, the Cavs face opponents that allow an average of just 94.7 points per game in Week 7.

Phoenix Suns
Schedule: @POR, MEM, POR
Good Plays: Steve Nash, Jason Richardson
Bad Plays: Goran Dragic, Josh Childress, Jared Dudley
Touss Ups: Channing Frye, Hakim Warrick, Grant Hill, Hedo Turkoglu
Injury Report: Grant Hill (foot/day-to-day), Robin Lopez (knee/mid-December)
Notes: The Suns expect Lopez to miss another couple of weeks, allowing Frye to maintain solid playing time. Frye is averaging 13.6 points and 5.4 rebounds over his last five games while seeing around 37 minutes per game. ... Hill is dealing with what is believed to be just a "minor" foot sprain. He is considered day-to-day and should be available for Week 7. The veteran is averaging an 18-4-5 stat line over his last five games. ... Warrick now finds himself as a starter for the Suns at power forward. Coach Alvin Gentry insists that he will give Warrick a fair shot at maintaining the starting job. He is averaging 15.4 points and 6.0 rebounds over his last five games. ... Turkoglu, now coming off the bench, is going to be used in his more comfortable small forward role. With Grant Hill playing so well, Turkoglu will have a very low ceiling for production in the short term.

Portland Trail Blazers
Schedule: PHO, ORL, @PHO, @SA
Good Plays: LaMarcus Aldridge, Brandon Roy, Andre Miller, Marcus Camby
Bad Plays: Rudy Fernandez
Toss Ups: Wesley Matthews, Nicolas Batum
Injury Report: Marcus Camby (knee/day-to-day), Joel Przybilla (knee, illness/day-to-day), Greg Oden (knee/out for the season)
Notes: The Trail Blazers have made a switch at small forward, getting Matthews into the lineup over Batum. This has allowed Matthews, who stood to lose a lot of Fantasy appeal with Roy back from his knee injury, to retain a lot of the Fantasy appeal he gained while Roy was away. ... Batum has been held to five or fewer points in four straight games.

Sacramento Kings
Schedule: @LAC, WAS, MIA
Good Plays: None
Bad Plays: Beno Udrih, Luther Head
Toss Ups: Tyreke Evans, Carl Landry, DeMarcus Cousins, Samuel Dalembert, Jason Thompson
Injury Report: Samuel Dalembert (knee/out until at least Dec. 6)
Notes: Evans has been plagued by a bad jump shot recently, leading to just a 12.2 scoring average over his last five games. He thinks he has addressed the mechanical flaw. If you trust him, keep him active in all leagues. ... Thompson is now starting at power forward for the Kings, but the rotation is anything but set in stone. Thompson has excellent upside, but is a player who should be reserved until he can prove consistent. ... Landry, who was moved to the bench, has had success in a reserve role in the past. However, he has scored a combined 11 points in his last two games. ... Cousins dropped 20 points on the Pacers on Wednesday night and stands to put up excellent numbers for however long Dalembert remains sidelined. Dalembert has been ruled out through the weekend, but his status for Monday's game may not be decided until tipoff. We would only recommend activating Cousins if Dalembert is ruled out through Week 7, which seems unlikely.

3. 76ers CLE, BOS, NO
4. Nets @ATL, @DAL, LAL
5. Magic ATL, @POR, UTA, LAC

San Antonio Spurs
Schedule: GS, ATL, POR
Good Plays: Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili
Bad Plays: Antonio McDyess, Tiago Splitter
Toss Ups: Tony Parker, George Hill, Richard Jefferson, DeJuan Blair, Matt Bonner
Injury Report: No significant injuries.
Notes: Parker was mysteriously absent for much of the second half of Wednesday's loss at the Clippers, playing under three minutes in the third quarter and not at all in the fourth. He finished with two points in the game and has scored less than 10 points in three of his last four games with 12 points in the only other contest. With personal issues stemming from a widely publicized divorce looming over him, it is wise to let him prove productive again before activating him. ... With Parker struggling, Hill is averaging a very solid 15-3-2 stat line over his last five games. ... Jefferson continues to be inconsistent. He is getting around 10 shots per game and is just as likely to score 19 points on any given night as he is three points. Activate him only in deeper leagues for now. ... Blair showed flashes of the upside he displayed for much of last season on Nov. 30 in Golden State, scoring 16 points with 10 boards. He will get to play the Warriors again in Week 7, but he has been far too inconsistent this season to trust. He will also face two very tough defensive centers the remainder of the week in Al Horford and Marcus Camby.

Toronto Raptors
Schedule: @IND, @NY, DEN, @DET
Good Plays: Andrea Bargnani
Bad Plays: Linas Kleiza, Leandro Barbosa, Jerryd Bayless, Sonny Weems, Ed Davis, Joey Dorsey
Toss Ups: Jose Calderon, Amir Johnson, DeMar DeRozan
Injury Report: Peja Stojakovic (knee/day-to-day), Reggie Evans (foot/February)
Notes: Calderon is seeing around 31 minutes per game as a starter and is translating that into high-end assist production. He is averging 7.8 assists per game over his last five contests, but just 10.6 points per game during the same span. ... With Evans expected to miss a couple of months, Johnson is getting a chance to start. He is still splitting playing time with Dorsey for now, however. ... DeRozan has dealt with some hamstring issues lately, but his last two games seem to indicate it is no longer an issue. He scored 20 points with six rebounds on Wednesday night against the Wizards and looks to be a decent low-end start again. He should be able to take advantage of favorable matchups against the Knicks and Nuggets.

Utah Jazz
Schedule: MEM, MIA, ORL, @DAL
Good Plays: Deron Williams, Al Jefferson, Paul Millsap
Bad Plays: C.J. Miles, Raja Bell, Mehmet Okur
Toss Ups: Andrei Kirilenko
Injury Report: Mehmet Okur (Achilles'/mid-December)
Notes: Okur appears close to a return, but the Jazz do not seem to be in a rush to activate him. There remains no concrete timetable set for his return. ... Kirilenko is playing around 35 minutes per game, offering Fantasy owners around 13-15 points to go with six boards and a block or two per game. He remains a useful play in most category leagues and larger Head-to-Head formats.

Washington Wizards
Schedule: @LAL, @SAC, NY
Good Plays: John Wall, Gilbert Arenas, Andrawy Blatche
Bad Plays: Al Thornton, Nick Young, Yi Jianlian
Toss Ups: JaVale McGee, Kirk Hinrich
Injury Report: Yi Jianlian (knee/day-to-day), Josh Howard (knee/mid-December)
Notes: McGee was able to shake off some back pain earlier in the week to come up with 10-and-10 against the Heat on Monday night and then 21-and-7 on Wednesday in Toronto. He blamed the back problem on the fall he took on Nov. 23 when he was hit by Elton Brand, but that does not seem to be an issue any longer. ... Hinrich is getting 30-plus minutes per game behind Wall and Arenas, but he has scored in double figures just one in his last five games. Big minutes aside, he is going to be far too inconsistent while Wall and Arenas are healthy to rely upon. ... Thornton returned from his ankle injury this week to play 16 minutes on Wednesday in Toronto. He will be eased back into the rotation and is not worth activating in any format at this time.
