We've got five games on Tuesday's NBA slate, anchored by TNT's doubleheader. Here's a look at the day's injury report, along with the relevant fantasy and betting implications.
NBA Injury Report: December 21
No notable day-to-day injuries for either team at this time.
Jimmy Butler (injury management) – probable
Kyle Lowry (knee) – questionable
If Lowry doesn't play, Tyler Herro and Butler likely see more run as creators. Gabe Vincent has already been ruled out, so Herro and Bulter are next in line as natural ball handlers.
Andrew Wiggins (groin) – OUT
Klay Thompson (knee) – probable
Jonathan Kuminga (knee) – probable
Kuminga should get good minutes with Wiggins still out, but Jordan Poole and Donte DiVincenzo remain the best DFS filler plays in this rotation.
Devin Booker (groin) – TBD
Deandre Ayton (ankle) – TBD
Booker sat Monday's game, while Ayton returned after missing some games with an ankle issue. We'll see how the Suns handle both players as the day goes on.
Nikola Jokic (knee) – probable
Jamal Murray (injury management) – questionable
Michael Porter Jr. (heel) – doubtful
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (leg) – questionable
Jokic will likely be in, while Porter Jr. is likely still out. If Murray sits, Bones Hyland gets elevated in DFS formats. If KCP sits, Bruce Brown will also be in the mix as a value play.
