Scheierman produced three points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one steal across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 125-124 overtime victory over the Nets.

Scheierman struggled to find his shot, connecting on just one of his five field-goal attempts. The second-year wing contributed modestly in other categories but remained a secondary offensive option despite receiving 21 minutes off the bench. His limited scoring opportunities make him a difficult option to roster outside deeper fantasy leagues.

Queta provided seven points (3-3 FG, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 15 minutes before fouling out of Tuesday's 125-124 overtime win over Brooklyn.

Queta made all three of his field-goal attempts but was limited by foul trouble, picking up six fouls in just 15 minutes. Mitchell Robinson started at center and logged 25 minutes, while Queta played a reserve role. The combination of limited playing time and competition in Boston's frontcourt makes Queta difficult to trust in most fantasy formats.

Clowney amassed three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 24 minutes during Tuesday's 125-124 overtime loss to Boston.

Clowney made his lone field-goal attempt but was otherwise quiet offensively, attempting just one shot despite playing 24 minutes. The 22-year-old forward did contribute two blocks, matching his total from his previous three appearances combined. Clowney has averaged just 6.3 points and 4.0 rebounds through four games, limiting his fantasy appeal despite a relatively steady role in Brooklyn's rotation.

Larsson (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Hawks.

No surprise here, as Larsson was previously considered probable. The versatile forward holds averages of 9.0 points, 3.3 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.5 steals in 30.8 minutes per game.

Wagner amassed 15 points (6-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 125-124 overtime loss to the Celtics.

Wagner delivered his best performance of the young season, establishing season highs in points, assists, steals and minutes. The veteran big man has now scored in double figures in consecutive games, shooting 11-for-17 from the field and 4-for-6 from beyond the arc during that stretch. Wagner remains a reserve behind Day'Ron Sharpe, but his recent offensive production could help him earn additional playing time in Brooklyn's frontcourt.

Dybantsa (ankle) was present at Wednesday's morning shootaround,Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

The rookie forward remains questionable on the latest injury report. However, he's trending in the right direction and could be cleared to make his NBA debut against the Cavaliers.

Fontecchio (illness) is out for Wednesday's game against the Hawks.

The veteran sharpshooter was previously listed as doubtful. His next chance to play comes Friday against the Pacers.

Black (personal) was not present at Wednesday's morning shootaround, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Black is listed as questionable on the injury report. However, Beede reports that Black is expected back in time before tipoff, so fantasy managers can keep him in lineups for the time being.

The Warriors are exploring potential trades involving Porzingis (personal), who remains away from the team indefinitely while dealing with ongoing health concerns, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports.

Porzingis is reportedly contemplating his future in basketball as he continues to battle health issues that have plagued him for nearly two years. Golden State isn't expecting the veteran center to rejoin the team anytime soon, and his contract structure could make him an attractive trade piece despite the uncertainty surrounding his playing future. With no timetable for his return and retirement potentially on the table, Porzingis remains a highly speculative fantasy stash, even in leagues with injured reserve spots.

Thompson contributed 11 points (5-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-3 FT), six rebounds, two assists, two steals and a block across 25 minutes in Tuesday's 111-97 loss to the Knicks.

Thompson returned to the starting lineup after missing Sunday's game against Philadelphia, and he delivered his usual multi-category contributions -- he had at least two tallies in four of the five major categories and had three combined steals-plus-blocks. Thompson's defensive versatility gives him considerable upside, but his minutes and offensive involvement will be important factors to monitor. He has yet to score more than 11 points in any of his three appearances this season.
