  • Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Limited role in loss

    Sharpe finished Tuesday's 125-124 overtime loss to the Celtics with four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds, one block and one steal in 17 minutes.

    Sharpe started at center but saw limited playing time, with Moritz Wagner logging 22 minutes off the bench. Although Sharpe provided three combined steals and blocks, his modest offensive involvement and reduced minutes were disappointing. The distribution of minutes between Brooklyn's centers will be worth monitoring.

    Spurs' Dylan Harper: Productive in easy win

    Harper logged 13 points (6-7 FG, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, six assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Tuesday's 130-103 victory over Sacramento.

    Harper is settling in as a starter on the wing for the Spurs. The eventual return of Tobias Harris (calf) could complicate matters in the Spurs' first unit, but Harper should continue to enjoy an amplified role at least for the time being.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Sniffs double-double

    Clingan produced nine points (3-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 1-4 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one block in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 136-129 victory over the Lakers.

    It's worth noting Robert Williams double-doubled Tuesday and closed the game in place of Clingan. The 26 minutes were still a season high for Clingan, so it appears there's plenty of room for both big men to be productive even if Williams continues to cut further into Clingan's playing time.

  • Knicks' Andre Drummond: Near double-double in victory

    Drummond recorded 10 points (5-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds and one assist over 14 minutes during Tuesday's 111-97 win over Detroit.

    After two straight outings with fewer than 10 minutes of action, Drummond got a bit more run with Karl-Anthony Towns battling foul trouble. Across four games this season, Drummond is averaging 7.0 points, 6.8 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 13.2 minutes.

  • Toumani Camara SF | POR

    Trail Blazers' Toumani Camara: Scores efficient 12 points

    Camara closed with 12 points (4-5 FG, 4-5 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 136-129 victory over the Lakers.

    Portland went with the hot hand of Jrue Holiday over Camara down the stretch, but Camara was efficient in his own right. Camara should remain entrenched as a starter for the Trail Blazers going forward.

  • Collin Sexton SG | LAL

    Lakers' Collin Sexton: Settling in with new team

    Sexton totaled nine points (4-11 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and four assists over 14 minutes during Tuesday's 136-129 loss to the Trail Blazers.

    Sexton has now made three straight appearances off the bench for the Lakers after missing the start of the year with a calf injury. His fantasy upside should remain capped while the team's backcourt is nearly fully healthy.

  • Wizards' Justin Champagnie: Undergoes foot surgery

    Champagnie (foot) is expected to miss several months, per Josh Robbins of The Athletic.

    The forward underwent surgery Wednesday to address a fractured foot, and the Wizards hope Champagnie will be ready to return at some time around the All-Star break in February. The likes of Bilal Coulibaly, Tre Johnson and Bub Carrington will all be asked to help pick up the slack for the foreseeable future.

  • Spurs' Tobias Harris: Sitting out Wednesday

    Harris (calf) is out for Wednesday's game against Utah, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

    This will be Harris' fifth straight game on the shelf as the Spurs continue to wait for his official debut. Harris is progressing and is said to be close to day-to-day.

  • Naji Marshall SG | DAL

    Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Downgraded to doubtful

    Marshall (illness) is now doubtful for Wednesday against the Thunder.

    Marshall was originally questionable, so he's trending in the wrong direction. With the Mavericks expected to hold him out, the team could rely more on Zaccharie Risacher.

  • Mavericks' Tarik Biberovic: Ruled out Wednesday

    Biberovic (heel) is out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

    Biberovic is still waiting to make his NBA debut. His next chance to do so arrives Friday against the Rockets.
