Miami Heat forward
Nikola Jovic (hip) will play against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday. Jovic has missed four straight games due to a hip impingement. The 22-year-old was averaging 21.4 minutes per contest across 14 games. However, he will likely see fewer minutes than he did before his setback, as
Kel'el Ware and
Bam Adebayo have formed a productive frontcourt duo in his absence.

Miami Heat guard/forward
Norman Powell (groin) will play against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday. A groin issue kept Powell out of action on Monday night against the Dallas Mavericks.
Andrew Wiggins (hip) is also set to return after a three-game absence. Powell's move to Miami has worked out well for him, as the former Clipper is averaging a career-high 25.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 1.3 steals. However, it will be interesting to see how well Powell meshes with
Tyler Herro, who made his season debut on Monday against Dallas, scoring 24 points in 29 minutes.

Milwaukee Bucks forward
Giannis Antetokounmpo (adductor) won't play on Wednesday against Miami. He's missed the last three games with a left adductor strain. While it appeared there was a chance the multi-time All-Star would be back for this one, fantasy managers will need to wait a little longer. His next chance to suit up will be on Friday versus the New York Knicks at MSG. In the meantime,
Ryan Rollins,
Kyle Kuzma, and
Bobby Portis are the favorites to lead the way offensively.

Miami Heat forward
Andrew Wiggins (hip) is available to suit up for Wednesday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. He has missed three games due to a left hip flexor strain but has been cleared to play.
Norman Powell (groin) will also return to the lineup for this evening's tilt. Wiggins is averaging 16.7 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.1 steals in 33.1 minutes per contest this season and could provide plenty of fantasy production in his return.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (illness) is currently questionable for Wednesday's meeting with Minnesota. Fantasy managers should already be planning for his absence. However, it's not a lock he'll be sidelined, with SGA planning to warm up to see how he feels. If Gilgeous-Alexander isn't available, it will be all hands on deck, although
Chet Holmgren,
Cason Wallace, and
Ajay Mitchell may benefit the most offensively.

Miami Heat shooting guard
Dru Smith (hip) is set to suit up against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday. Smith has been dealing with a left hip contusion, but he has yet to miss a game this season. The 27-year-old is averaging 6.3 points, 3.0 assists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.5 steals in 16.8 minutes across 18 games. He will continue to have a limited role in the Heat's rotation and will likely not factor in fantasy basketball this evening.

Miami Heat guard/forward
Jaime Jaquez Jr. (hip) is now available to suit up against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday. Jaquez has been cleared to play after he was listed on the injury report earlier due to issues with his right hip. Coming off the bench, the 24-year-old has been excellent this season, averaging 16.5 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 5.4 assists in 30.4 minutes across 18 games. However, his reliable fantasy production could take a hit now that
Tyler Herro is back in the mix.

Miami Heat guard/forward
Jaime Jaquez Jr. (hip) has been upgraded to probable ahead of Wednesday's matchup with the Bucks. The 24-year-old hasn't missed a game this season, but he was listed on the injury report as questionable earlier due to issues with his right hip. Jaquez is becoming one of the NBA's best bench performers, averaging 16.5 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 5.4 assists across 30.4 minutes. If Jaquez has a setback and is unable to suit up this evening, it would allow
Simone Fontecchio to take on a larger role in the rotation.

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward
Pat Connaughton (calf) is unavailable for Wednesday's matchup with the New York Knicks. Connaughton picked up a right calf strain against the Clippers on Sunday and will miss his second straight game this evening in Charlotte. His next chance to get back on the floor will come on Friday versus the Bulls. The 32-year-old is averaging only 4.3 points across 9.3 minutes per contest and he rarely makes much of an impact in fantasy basketball.

According to Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News, San Antonio Spurs guard
Dylan Harper (calf) is available to suit up for Wednesday's matchup against Portland after missing 10 straight games due to a calf strain. His return adds needed depth while second-year guard
Stephon Castle (hip) is out of action. Harper's role may shift early on as the Spurs sort out how to divide minutes between
De'Aaron Fox, Castle, and Harper once everyone is ready to return. Before sustaining the calf injury, the 19-year-old rookie was averaging 14.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 3.8 assists across six appearances.

Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports that Golden State Warriors forward
Jonathan Kuminga (knee) has been assigned to the G League's Santa Cruz Warriors on Wednesday. Currently, there isn't a timetable on when the 23-year-old will be back with the Warriors. He will likely participate in scrimmages, but will not see any live action with Santa Cruz. Before sustaining a knee injury, Kuminga was averaging 13.8 points, 6.6 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 27.7 minutes per contest across 13 appearances.

According to Shams Charania of ESPN, New York Knicks guard/forward
Landry Shamet (shoulder) will be out at least four weeks due to a right shoulder sprain. Before the setback, the 28-year-old secured his spot as a starter and was shooting 42.2 percent from beyond the arc. He also averaged 9.2 points with 1.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists over his last five outings. With Shamet out, fantasy managers could look to
Miles McBride and
Jordan Clarkson as possible streaming options.

November 26, 2025
Houston Rockets center
Steven Adams (ankle) will miss Wednesday's matchup against Golden State. His absence does not guarantee a major role for
Clint Capela, who has been a fringe option and could still get squeezed if Houston leans into small-ball looks. Capela has averaged 2.0 points and 3.2 rebounds across his last five appearances, but Houston's thin frontcourt with
Kevin Durant (personal reasons),
Tari Eason (oblique), and
Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle) all out could lead to a slight bump in minutes. He remains a deeper-league rebounding flyer rather than a standard-league option.

November 26, 2025
Sacramento Kings guard
Dennis Schroder (hip) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Phoenix after appearing in every game so far. The veteran has recently slid into more of a backup role behind
Russell Westbrook but is still providing 14.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 6.0 assists per game on 43.1 percent shooting over his last five outings. If he's ruled out, Westbrook takes on more creation duties, and
Malik Monk,
Nique Clifford, and
Keon Ellis each gain a slight uptick in minutes and touches.

November 26, 2025
Phoenix Suns guard/forward
Grayson Allen (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup against Sacramento, marking his sixth straight absence. His continued absence keeps
Collin Gillespie and
Jordan Goodwin in elevated roles. Gillespie has averaged 17.0 points, 5.0 assists, and 1.8 steals over his last five games, highlighted by 16 points and three steals in 29 minutes against Houston. Goodwin has also been productive, contributing 11.8 points and 2.0 steals on 51.0 percent shooting in that same span. Both remain viable streamers while Allen is sidelined.
