Denver Nuggets guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (hamstring) won't play on Wednesday against Sacramento. He's been battling a hamstring issue, keeping him out of the lineup for the previous two games heading into Monday's meeting with Milwaukee. Although Caldwell-Pope was available for that one, he logged only nine minutes before exiting. With Jamal Murray (leg) also out, the Nuggets will rely on Reggie Jackson and Justin Holiday to hold things down in the backcourt. Of course, Nikola Jokic, Aaron Gordon, and Michael Porter Jr. should remain the top offensive contributors.


Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (leg) won't play on Wednesday versus Sacramento. This one shouldn't surprise anyone, considering he was downgraded from questionable to doubtful throughout the day. Barring a setback, he should be back immediately after the All-Star break. However, until Murray returns to the lineup, Nikola Jokic, Michael Porter Jr., and Aaron Gordon should remain locks for all fantasy lineups. On the other hand, Reggie Jackson, who will start for Murray, is worth streaming.


New York Knicks guard Donte DiVincenzo (hamstring) won't suit up for Wednesday's matchup with Orlando. The 27-year-old is coming off a 23-point, two-steal showing on Monday against the Houston Rockets. However, he suffered a hamstring issue in that one. Fortunately, it doesn't appear he'll be out long, so there's a good chance he will return to the floor immediately after the All-Star break. That said, with the Knicks also adding Isaiah Hartenstein (Achilles) and Bojan Bogdanovic (calf) to an already extensive injury report, Alec Burks and Josh Hart should get all the minutes they can handle. But Jalen Brunson will be the top offensive option versus the Magic, although that goes without saying.


New York Knicks forward/center Isaiah Hartenstein (Achilles) won't play on Wednesday versus Orlando. He had carried a questionable tag throughout the day. However, the Achilles issue is still bothering him, so he'll miss a third consecutive contest. As a result, Precious Achiuwa will continue to see extra work, with the former Raptor coming off an impressive 17-rebound, three-block showing in Monday's loss to Houston. Without question, Achiuwa is a must-start in all fantasy formats, including those participating in DFS contests.


New York Knicks forward Bojan Bogdanovic (calf) won't play on Wednesday night versus Orlando. The veteran sharpshooter is out because of an ailing calf, an injury that he's dealt with throughout the 2023-24 campaign. Unfortunately, the Knicks also won't have Donte DiVincenzo (hamstring) and Isaiah Hartenstein (Achilles), so the team will be even more shorthanded than usual. Without question, Jalen Brunson will nearly monopolize the chances on the offensive end. But guys like Alec Burks and Josh Hart should be locks for all fantasy lineups on Wednesday evening.
