Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (ankle) is considered probable to play against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday. The 23-year-old has become one of the key pieces to the Bulls' offensive success as he revived his career with the best season he's posted yet. White averages 19.2 points, 5.1 assists, 4.7 rebounds, 2.8 made threes, and 2.2 turnovers per game. He's even shooting 46.3% from the floor and 39.4% from beyond the arc. Since he's expected to play, he should remain in all fantasy lineups regardless of the league format or size. Especially with Zach LaVine (ankle) out for the rest of the season, White's fantasy value is at an all-time high.


Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (calf) has been sidelined since December 26 and the team never gave an update on him after saying he would be re-evaluated near the end of January. Head coach Steve Clifford said Hayward is "pretty close to being able to come back," but didn't offer any firm timetable. His injury has been listed as a calf strain this whole time, but there hasn't been any official word from the team on the severity or the treatment plan. For now, fantasy managers will have to check back for any updates on Hayward throughout the week. There have been a few reports saying the Hornets are also exploring trade options with Hayward, so that will be another avenue to watch. In the meantime, Brandon Miller will continue seeing big minutes with the starting five.


Los Angeles Lakers forward Jarred Vanderbilt (foot) has officially been diagnosed with a right mid-foot sprain, and the team doctors will re-evaluate his status in three to four weeks, according to Dave McMenamin of ESPN. The 24-year-old sprained his foot in their contest against the Boston Celtics on Feb. 1. Some reports, before he was officially diagnosed, said he may miss the rest of the season. He at least has a timetable to check his status before then and has a chance to be back for the end of the season and a potential playoff run. In the meantime, Christian Wood and Rui Hachimura will likely see added time and could serve as streaming options in a pinch.


Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie has fallen out of any future plans with the team it seems as Adrian Wojnarowski reports that they're listening to offers for him, Dorian Finney-Smith, and Royce O'Neale. The 30-year-old point guard hasn't been able to find an offensive rhythm with the Nets yet while he shoots sub-40 percent right now and averages 12.7 points per game. With the rise of Cam Thomas, Lonnie Walker IV, and Dennis Smith Jr., it seems like the Nets are comfortable getting some draft capital or younger players in return for Dinwiddie. Depending on where he moves, Dinwiddie's fantasy value could take a sizeable jump if he sees some playing time with a better team.



Brooklyn Nets forwards Dorian Finney-Smith and Royce O'Neale are two of three players seemingly on the trade block ahead of the NBA's trade deadline on February 8. According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, the Nets are listening to offers on both of their veteran forwards and Spencer Dinwiddie. They're expected to look for deals on just these three vets while the rest of the roster is expected to stay in Brooklyn at least until this offseason. Finney-Smith and O'Neale are two prototypical 3-and-D wings that many playoff contenders could use. It's unclear right now what the Nets are expecting in return and whether or not it would be a package of picks plus younger players or one of the two.
