Mogbo supplied seven points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 18 minutes during Sunday's 123-112 loss to the Grizzlies.

Keegan Murray sat out Sunday with an ankle injury, allowing Mogbo to play an expanded role. Once the G League season begins, the two-way player is likely to report to the Stockton Kings.

Mamukelashvili chipped in nine points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), three rebounds and one block over 21 minutes during Sunday's 132-123 victory over the Jazz.

Mamukelashvili is averaging 7.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 22.3 minutes per game as the backup to Ziaire Williams and Walker Kessler in the frontcourt. Mamukelashvili will continue to provide solid contributions in three-pointers and rebounds for the revamped Lakers, but his upside is limited as a reserve.

Hunter chipped in seven points (2-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds and one assist across 29 minutes during Sunday's 123-112 loss to the Grizzlies.

Hunter is off to a sluggish start to the new campaign. The forward has yet to score in double digits in any of his first three appearances, but he should be able to hang on to a starting role with the rebuilding Kings going forward.

Martin (thumb) is out for Monday's game against the Heat, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Martin will miss his fourth straight game to begin the 2026-27 season. His absence won't have any effect on the Mavericks' rotation, and he can be considered week-to-week moving forward.

Edwards (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against Cleveland.

Minnesota is considering giving the superstar guard the night off for the second half of this back-to-back set. Ayo Dosunmu and Terrence Shannon would both have added fantasy appeal if Edwards sits out Monday.

Flagg (shoulder) has been upgraded to probable for Monday against the Heat, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Flagg was carrying a questionable tag prior to this update with his mild shoulder strain. He made it through the morning shootaround with no setbacks, however, and the Mavericks are now preparing for their star forward to suit up. For now, there's no word of potential restrictions.

Smart (arm) is out for Monday's game against the Hawks.

Smart was previously labeled as questionable for Houston. With Smart sidelined for a second straight contest, the Rockets could lean more on Reed Sheppard and Bogdan Bogdanovic. His next chance to play comes Wednesday against the Bucks.

Drummond ended Sunday's 111-102 loss to the Magic with four points (2-3 FG), three rebounds and two assists in seven minutes.

Drummond was pulled by coach Mike Brown early on due to a lack of effort. James Wiseman picked up seven minutes as a result, making this a situation to monitor in very deep formats. Drummond has been limited to seven minutes in two straight games following his strong showing on Opening Night.

Garland racked up 16 points (7-17 FG, 2-8 3Pt), four rebounds and 11 assists across 36 minutes during Sunday's 108-101 loss to the Thunder.

Garland led the Clippers in scoring and recorded his first double-double of the season, though he struggled from beyond the arc and committed six turnovers against Oklahoma City's aggressive defense. With Brandon Ingram (heel) and Max Strus (foot) sidelined, Garland continues to handle substantial offensive responsibilities, giving him a strong opportunity to produce points and assists despite his early-season efficiency issues.

Wagler finished Sunday's 108-101 loss to Oklahoma City with 11 points (2-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 26 minutes.

Wagler continued to receive substantial playing time off the bench, reaching double figures for the third consecutive game to begin his NBA career. The rookie struggled with his shooting and committed four turnovers, but his perfect performance at the charity stripe and contributions as a rebounder and facilitator were encouraging. His early involvement in the rotation makes him worth monitoring in deeper fantasy leagues.
