Joel Embiid "Day-To-Day"
Jan 14, 2025, 10:29 PM ET
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) didn't play in Tuesday's loss to OKC. However, it appears he has a chance of returning for Wednesday's game against the Knicks, with head coach Nick Nurse labeling the multi-time All-Star as "day-to-day." Embiid, who hasn't been as productive this season, has appeared in only 13 of Philly's 38 games during the 2024-25 campaign, most recently missing five games because of a foot sprain. With Andre Drummond (toe) uncertain for Wednesday's meeting with New York, Guerschon Yabusele, amassing 17 points, seven rebounds, and four assists on Tuesday night, could find himself back in the middle if Embiid remains sidelined.--Dennis ClausenSource: Ky CarlinComments · Join ChatOpen App

Dejounte Murray Ruled Out Versus Nuggets
Brian Dailisan
Nov 14, 2026, 7:00 PM ET
New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (ankle) will miss his second straight game Saturday against the Denver Nuggets due to a left ankle sprain. His absence comes one day after ESPN's Shams Charania reported that Murray requested a trade, a development the Pelicans later confirmed. Phoenix has reportedly shown interest, though no trade talks have developed. Murray is averaging 13.4 points, 4.4 assists, and 1.6 steals while shooting 43.1% through nine games. Jeremiah Fears should continue handling more of the backcourt workload after posting 18 points and seven assists against Memphis on Friday, while Murray's fantasy outlook now depends heavily on where he lands.--Brian DailisanSource: DNVR Nuggets
Trey Murphy III Remains Sidelined Saturday

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Trey Murphy III (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's matchup with the Denver Nuggets due to bilateral patellar tendinopathy. It will be his fourth straight absence and fifth missed game of the season. Murphy has averaged 15.6 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 2.2 threes in 32.8 minutes when available. With Dejounte Murray (ankle) also sidelined, Saddiq Bey should remain busy after putting up 30 points and 10 rebounds against Memphis on Friday. Murphy's recurring knee issue remains the bigger concern for fantasy managers until he can put together a healthier stretch.--Brian DailisanSource: DNVR Nuggets
Yves Missi Cleared to Return Saturday Against Denver
Brian Dailisan
Nov 14, 2026, 6:50 PM ET
New Orleans Pelicans center Yves Missi (knee) is set to return Saturday against the Denver Nuggets after missing 11 straight games with a left knee bone bruise. Missi will be on a minutes restriction in his first game back, which should keep expectations modest right away. He opened the season as New Orleans' starting center and posted 13 points, 14 rebounds, five assists, two steals, and three blocks against Indiana before the injury. Karlo Matkovic and DeAndre Jordan have handled most of the center starts in his absence, but Missi's rebounding and defensive production could earn him a larger share of the frontcourt minutes as his workload increases.--Brian DailisanSource: Jim Eichenhofer

Brian Dailisan
Nov 14, 2026, 9:11 AM ET
Houston Rockets forward/center Alperen Sengun erupted for a season-high 43 points in Friday's 125-118 NBA Cup win over the Utah Jazz, adding 12 rebounds, five assists, one steal, and one block. Sengun shot 17-for-24 from the field and 8-for-12 at the line while carrying Houston's offense on a night when Kevin Durant scored 22 points on 5-for-14 shooting. He also became the third player in franchise history to post at least 40 points, 10 rebounds, and five assists while shooting 70% or better. Sengun is now averaging 23.1 points, 9.6 rebounds, and 7.6 assists, giving him one of the strongest all-around fantasy profiles at center.--Brian DailisanSource: NBA
Darryn Peterson Drops Career-High 28 Points Against Houston
Brian Dailisan
Nov 14, 2026, 9:01 AM ET
Utah Jazz guard Darryn Peterson poured in a career-high 28 points on 9-for-20 shooting in Friday's 125-118 loss to the Houston Rockets. The rookie added seven rebounds, four threes, two steals, and one block while extending his streak of 20-point games to five. Peterson is averaging 24.4 points and 3.4 threes during that stretch, giving Utah another reliable scoring option in the backcourt. With Lauri Markkanen (hand) sidelined, Peterson should continue seeing enough shot volume to stay productive even with Keyonte George back in the lineup. His scoring and three-point production have given his fantasy value a noticeable lift during this run.--Brian DailisanSource: NBA
