Wiggins (knee) is active for Wednesday's game against Miami.

Wiggins was listed as probable leading into tonight's contest versus the Heat, but the former Thunder wing will play and handle his typical role off the Hawks' bench. In four outings with Atlanta this season, he's averaging 15.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 3.0 three-pointers in 27.1 minutes.

Carr (oblique) is out for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

The rookie first-rounder will need more time to recover from the oblique injury that's kept him sidelined for what will be his fifth consecutive contest. Carr's next chance to suit up will come against the Warriors on Friday in the first Emirates NBA Cup matchup.

Thiero (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

Thiero will miss his fifth consecutive outing to begin the 2026-27 campaign with swelling in his left knee. His next chance to suit up will come against the Warriors on Friday in the first Emirates NBA Cup matchup.

Williams (foot) is out for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

Williams is sitting out the second part of this back-to-back set. Sandro Mamukelashvili and Jake LaRavia seem to be the most likely options to replace Williams in the starting lineup.

Doncic (back) is out for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

Doncic is sitting out the second half of this back-to-back set. Quentin Grimes appears to be the most likely candidate to replace Doncic in the starting lineup.

Castle totaled 15 points (4-11 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one steal over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 130-103 win over the Kings.

Castle has not been shy from beyond the arc this season, as he's attempted a career-high 9.3 three-pointers through four outings so far. He's converting them at a career-best clip (37.8 percent), too, making 3.5 triples a night to go along with 18.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.3 steals in 29.2 minutes. Castle's ability to stuff the stat sheet, coupled with his improved outside shooting, is a great sign for fantasy managers going forward.

Fox accumulated 11 points (3-6 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and six assists over 26 minutes during Tuesday's 130-103 win over Sacramento.

The 26 minutes were a season low for Fox, but that can primarily be attributed to the Spurs nursing a large lead for most of the contest. He's dished out at least six dimes in all four outings and has seven combined steals-plus-blocks, and that trend should continue as long as he remains healthy.

Vassell supplied 14 points (5-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt), four rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 130-103 win over the Kings.

Vassell stuffed the stat sheet in just 24 minutes of action, as he finished with a team-high eight assists in the lopsided victory. He's now had at least six dimes in two consecutive games, showing improved playmaking chops for the 2-2 Spurs. With Tobias Harris (calf) still working towards his season debut, Vassell should continue operating as the starting power forward.

Acuff posted 19 points (8-20 FG, 3-7 3Pt), three rebounds and five assists across 33 minutes during Tuesday's 130-103 loss to San Antonio.

The rebuilding Kings are wasting no time giving the rookie first-rounder the green light to fire away on offense in the early stages of the season. Acuff has taken at least 20 field-goal attempts in all four of his appearances, so it seems Sacramento is prioritizing the guard's development right away.

Prince supplied three points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and two steals over seven minutes during Tuesday's 111-97 loss to the Knicks.

Prince made his first appearance of the regular season after missing Detroit's previous three games. The veteran forward connected on one three-pointer and recorded two steals but failed to register a rebound or assist. His limited playing time suggests he will primarily serve as depth in Detroit's rotation, leaving him without meaningful fantasy value in standard leagues.
