Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is available ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Murray has been dealing with an ankle issue but was cleared to play after going through his pregame routine. Reggie Jackson is expected to remain on the bench and won't have great streaming appeal there. Fellow guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (personal) has been ruled out. That means Justin Holiday will likely start alongside Murray on Saturday. Holiday doesn't offer great value even on a small-slate night. Fantasy managers should make sure they have Murray back in their lineups.


Memphis Grizzlies guard Luke Kennard (illness) is available ahead of Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The Grizzlies will get some reinforcements with both Kennard and John Konchar (thumb) available to play on Saturday. Kennard figures to move back into the starting five which will shift Jordan Goodwin to the bench. Konchar will likely remain in a bench role and doesn't have a great path to value with Ziaire Williams doing well as a starter.


Phoenix Suns guard Eric Gordon (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. Gordon continues to be sidelined due to a lingering groin issue. He will be joined by Nassir Little (knee) during Saturday's game. The absence of Gordon should mean more playing time for Royce O'Neale. He'll be bounced to the second unit with Bradley Beal back in the picture. O'Neale won't be as appealing off the bench, but should still have some streaming value in deep leagues.


Denver Nuggets guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (personal) has been downgraded to out ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Nuggets could be shorthanded here with Jamal Murray (ankle) listed as questionable for this game. Justin Holiday figures to fill the spot in the starting five left by Caldwell-Pope. Despite the extra minutes, Holiday doesn't offer great streaming value. He has a limited ceiling and isn't even an above-average option on a small-slate night like Saturday.


Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) is available ahead of Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. As expected, Beal will make his return to the court after missing each of the last five games due to a left hamstring injury. His return will shift Royce O'Neale back to the bench. O'Neale won't have as much streaming appeal anymore and will only be worth a look in deep leagues. It's unclear if Beal is going to be under a minutes limit during this game. Regardless, fantasy managers in season-long formats can get Beal back in their lineups.
