Kevin Durant is Ruled Out for Game 1 on Saturday
Houston Rockets forward Kevin Durant (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's Game 1 against the Los Angeles Lakers. Durant will be downgraded from questionable to out due to a right knee contusion. Head coach Ime Udoka is hopeful that this will be a one-game absence for Durant. His absence from the rotation will mean that Reed Sheppard will move into the starting five on Saturday. Tari Eason, Dorian Finney-Smith, and Jae'Sean Tate are all candidates to see increased run as well. Among the bunch, Sheppard is the best DFS option ahead of Saturday's slate. He should be a focal point on offense along with Amen Thompson and Alperen Sengun.
