S. Johnson - PF

TOR

Stanley Johnson joins Fred VanVleet, Norman Powell, OG Anunoby and Aron Baynes in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

With Pascal Siakam (left knee swelling) being a late scratch, Johnson will be making his first start of the season Sunday afternoon. He doesn't offer much in the way of fantasy value, but this is a great opportunity for Johnson to to cement his place in the Raptors rotation. He played 14 minutes in Friday's win over the Heat, accounting for three points, two rebounds, three assists, one steal and one 3-pointer.

A. Nesmith - SF

BOS

Aaron Nesmith (lower back spasms) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers.

Nesmith was originally listed as doubtful, so the upgrade is good news. But he isn't a consistent rotation player when available, so he should be left on the waiver wire.

P. Washington - PF

CHA

P.J. Washington said that he still expects to see some time at center, despite the return of Cody Zeller.

Zeller, who missed a significant amount of time due to a broken wrist, made his return to the Hornets starting lineup Friday night. But that didn't change much when it came to Washington getting minutes at the center position, as he was still utilized in that role at times. For his part, Hornets coach James Borrego said that he's still figuring out "the best mix" of Washington, Zeller and Bismack Biyombo in the rotation. Per Cleaning the Glass, Washington has played 55% of his minutes at center, and he ranks in the 69th percentile in points per possession. By comparison, he ranks in the 10th percentile in points per possession when used at the power forward spot.

P. Siakam - PF

TOR

Pascal Siakam (left knee swelling) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Pacers.

The Raptors will be down two starters Sunday afternoon, as Kyle Lowry (toe) has also been ruled out. Siakam's absence frees up more scoring opportunities for OG Anunoby, who pumped in 23 points in Friday's win over the Heat. Over the last week, Anunoby has been a top-20 player in 9-cat formats. He's rostered in 87% of Yahoo leagues, so it's going to be very difficult to pick him up at this point. But Anunoby is a very good option for those putting together their DFS squads. Stanley Johnson and Terence Davis should also see an uptick in minutes, while Chris Boucher remains in his usual sixth man role.

K. Lowry - PG

TOR

Kyle Lowry (toe infection, right foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

Lowry will miss a second straight game due to the foot injury, which will in all likelihood mean another start for Norman Powell. Powell played well Friday night, tallying 23 points, three rebounds, two steals and three 3-pointers in a blowout win over the Heat. Powell is currently rostered in 54% of Yahoo leagues, and he should be picked up with Lowry sidelined.

JaKarr Sampson (illness) has been upgraded to probable for Sunday's game against the Raptors.

Sampson was listed as questionable on Saturday's injury report, and it seems likely that he will be able to give it a go Sunday afternoon. That being said, he doesn't offer much in the way of fantasy value, especially with Myles Turner (hand) back in the rotation.

L. Ball - PG

CHA

When asked why LaMelo Ball played just 16 minutes in Friday's loss to the Bulls, Hornets coach James Borrego pointed to the rookie's turnover count.

"If you’re turning the ball over five times in 16 minutes, that ain’t gonna cut it for me," Borrego said on Saturday. "If you’re doing that on the offensive end, you better be bringing something defensively." Ball finished the game with seven points, one rebound, two assists and two steals, shooting 3-of-7 from the field. While the second overall pick has put together some positive stretches of play this season, he's still a rookie and there are growing pains that he'll experience. Borrego said that he believed Ball's poor decision-making Friday night impacted him defensively, hence the decrease in minutes. He'll be fine moving forward.

S. Doumbouya - PF

DET

Pistons coach Dwane Casey said after Saturday's loss to the 76ers that Sekou Doumbouya's opportunity for more minutes is "coming."

Doumbouya has found it difficult to crack the Pistons rotation on a consistent basis, but with Blake Griffin (knee) being held out of Saturday's game more minutes were available to the second-year forward. And to his credit Doumbouya took advantage of the opportunity, posting a line of 13 points (4-of-10 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, one assist, one steal and one 3-pointer in 19 minutes. He made a positive impression on his coach, who believes that it's just a matter of time before Doumbouya puts it all together. "Sekou, as far as not having the opportunity, it’s coming," Casey said after the loss. "He’s going to be in this league a long time. … I’m happy and proud of him, the way he came in and played, defended, rebounded, was out there talking, leading in a positive way. The future’s going to be very bright for Sekou in this league." He doesn't offer much in the way of fantasy value right now, but that should change once the Pistons (who are now 3-13) turn their focus towards the future.
