Toronto Raptors guard/forward Ochai Agbaji (back) is considered questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Agbaji has played only once in the last three games and could sit out a second consecutive contest due to lower back spasms. Toronto has managed to stay healthy this season, limiting Agbaji's workload to 13.9 minutes per game. He has averaged only 2.7 points and 2.1 rebounds. Due to Agbaji's health issues, Ja'Kobe Walter and Gradey Dick can play a slightly more significant role off the bench. However, neither player has made a substantial fantasy impact in the 2025-26 season.

Utah Jazz forward/center Kevin Love (rest) has come off the injury report for Thursday's contest against the Atlanta Hawks. Utah completed a back-to-back on Tuesday night with a blowout win against the Indiana Pacers, and Love was rested for the game. Before his scheduled rest day, Love featured in five consecutive games, averaging 4.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.4 assists in 13.0 minutes. Due to his limited role, Love hasn't been a factor in fantasy basketball, and that's unlikely to change on Thursday night.

Toronto Raptors forward/center Sandro Mamukelashvili (back) remains on the injury report with a questionable tag ahead of Thursday's encounter with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Due to a back issue, he was also listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Brooklyn Nets. Toronto ruled him out for the contest ahead of tip-off, resulting in Mamukelashvili's first absence this season. The 26-year-old has been fairly productive as a reserve in Canada, averaging 9.0 points and 3.4 rebounds in 17.8 minutes. On Thursday, Mamukelashvili could be joined on the sidelines by Collin Murray-Boyles(illness), meaning starting center Jakob Poeltl might be in for a very busy night. Jonathan Mogbo would then likely take on the backup minutes at center.

Toronto Raptors forward/center Collin Murray-Boyles (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The rookie is dealing with an illness and may be sidelined after playing in nine consecutive games. Jakob Poeltl has been in and out of the Raptors lineup, meaning Murray-Boyles has seen plenty of time on the court early in his NBA career. The 20-year-old has averaged 8.8 points and 3.9 rebounds in 20.8 minutes. With Sandro Mamukelashvili (neck) also questionable for Thursday's matchup, the Raptors frontcourt could be short-handed. In this case, Jonathan Mogbo might get a much larger workload than he's used to.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (sciatica)practiced with the team's G League affiliate, the South Bay Lakers, on Wednesday. "He was able to participate in the practice," Lakers head coach JJ Redick said. "Got up and down a little bit with just some, like, warmup transition drills and progressed to five-on-five in the half court, and got, I think about 12 to 15 possessions of live five-on-five contact." James' ability to do some five-on-five work marks a big step toward his return to game action. According to Redick, James "looked good" during the practice. The four-time MVP has missed the first few weeks of the season due to sciatica on his right side and is expected to sit out at least two more games.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (hamstring) has been cleared for contact, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports. The former No. 1 pick went through some one-on-one drills during Wednesday's shootaround. Williamson has missed five games due to a left hamstring strain. While he looks to be nearing his return, the team hasn't provided an official timeline for Williamson. Saddiq Bey has stepped into the first unit as Williamson's replacement, delivering solid performances. He has averaged 17.8 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 2.0 assists over the past five games.

Denver's C Nikola Jokic recorded a double-double, scoring 55 points and grabbing 12 rebounds in a 130-116 win over the Clippers on Wednesday, Nov. 12.

San Antonio's G Stephon Castle recorded a triple-double, finishing with 23 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds in a 120-125 loss to the Warriors on Wednesday, Nov. 12.

San Antonio's C Victor Wembanyama recorded a triple-double, finishing with 31 points, 10 assists and 15 rebounds in a 120-125 loss to the Warriors on Wednesday, Nov. 12.

Golden State Warriors' G Stephen Curry scored 46 points on 13-of-25 shooting in a 125-120 win over San Antonio on Wednesday, Nov. 12.

Denver Nuggets shooting guard Christian Braun (ankle) left the team's matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday, and will not return. The fourth-year guard appeared in just 16 minutes of action before leaving with what the team is labeling a left ankle injury. Tim Hardaway Jr. and Bruce Brown are will likely see increased usage is Braun's injury lingers. The 24-year-old was averaging 11.9 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.9 assists per game heading into Wednesday's matchup. Braun should be considered questionable when the Nuggets travel to Minnesota to play the Timberwolves on Saturday.

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) was seen leaving Madison Square Garden in a walking boot Wednesday night. The team is yet to release an official statement, but head coach Mike Brown told reporters Brunson "rolled his right ankle". The team is set to face the Miami Heat at home on Friday. Brunson leads the team with 27.7 points and 6.6 assists per game. If Brunson misses time, Mikal Bridges could be called upon to shoulder the playmaking duties for the team. Bridges currently ranks second on the team with 5.2 assists per game.

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (knee) won't return to Wednesday's game against the Spurs. The 2021 No. 7 overall pick was listed as questionable heading into this one. While he ended up suiting up, he wasn't in the starting lineup. Kuminga would be held scoreless before exiting after only 12 minutes of work. The 23-year-old hasn't missed a game all season, averaging 14.9 points. He's also logged career-highs in rebounds (6.8) and assists (3.1). With that said, it's unknown if Kuminga will be available for Friday's rematch between the Spurs and Warriors, but if he's not out there, Will Richard and Buddy Hield may see more work.

Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero (groin) won't return to Wednesday's meeting with the New York Knicks. The 23-year-old logged only 12 minutes before exiting with a groin strain, finishing with four points, three rebounds, one steal, and one block. Orlando won't play again until Friday against the visiting Brooklyn Nets. Hopefully, Banchero will be out there. Of course, fantasy managers will be anxiously awaiting an update. If he can't suit up versus the Nets, Franz Wagner will handle even more of the scoring load, with Desmond Bane, Anthony Black, and Jalen Suggs in line to produce above-average fantasy production.

Washington Wizards forward Bilal Coulibaly (calf) is still without a timetable for his return, according to head coach Brian Keefe. Keefe noted that the third-year man was doing limited work during the team's shootaround on Wednesday. Coulibaly has been limited to just four games so far this season, all starts, due to injury. The Frenchman is averaging 10.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists, one block, and one steal in his limited action. The Wizards, who haven't won a game since October 24th, continue to tinker with the starting lineup. Kyshawn George and Khris Middleton picked up starts at the forward positions for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets.

Atlanta Hawks guard Nickeil Alexander-Walker (back) has been upgraded to probable, putting him in line to return to the lineup on Wednesday night. Alexander-Walker has missed the last two games with his back issue. Before that, the Hawks' offseason acquisition was starting at point guard for the injured Trae Young (knee). NAW is averaging a career-best 17.6 points, 3.2 assists, and 1.8 stocks per game, while getting to the free throw at his most efficient clip. The Hawks swept the Los Angeles teams without Alexander-Walker. He and the Hawks continue their West Coast trip with a matchup against the Kings.

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (knee) will play against the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night, despite the questionable tag earlier in the day. However, Kuminga won't be in the starting lineup for the first time this season. Following Tuesday's blowout loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, forward Draymond Green publicly questioned some of the team. Today, head coach Steve Kerr announced there was an "obvious" need for lineup changes. Rookie second-round pick Will Richard will pick up his second start of the season, alongside Stephen Curry, Moses Moody, Jimmy Butler, and Green.

Memphis Grizzlies point guardJa Morant will be sidelined for Wednesday's matchup with the Boston Celtics. Morant is dealing with soreness in his left ankle after tweaking it during Tuesday's 133-120 loss to the Knicks. Morant has averaged 18.9 points, 8.1 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 30.8 minutes per contest across 11 games this season. Cam Spencer will likely start while the 26-year-old star point guard is out, while Jaren Jackson Jr. could see extra scoring opportunities during tonight's tilt.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) won't play on Wednesday against the Bulls. The 21-year-old has played extremely well during the 2025 campaign, averaging 19.4 points, 12.0 rebounds, 1.2 blocks, and 1.1 steals. He was listed as probable on Tuesday night. However, Duren was downgraded to questionable before ultimately getting ruled out. With Isaiah Stewart (ankle) sidelined, the Pistons will likely start Paul Reed at the five. Reed is coming off an eight-point, nine-rebound effort in Monday's overtime win over the Washington Wizards, although it's safe to assume he'll be much more productive for fantasy managers in need of a streaming option.

Detroit Pistons forward/centerIsaiah Stewart(ankle) is out for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Stewart will be out of action for a third consecutive contest due to a left ankle sprain. WithAusar Thompson(ankle) also unavailable,Ron Holland II will likely be in the starting lineup. Unfortunately, Holland has averaged only 7.0 points as a starter, so he has some work to do before landing on fantasy managers' radar.
