Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (hamstring) has been tagged as questionable for the late-night game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday. The do-it-all wing is dealing with a right hamstring strain which can be one of the trickier injuries. He was unable to suit up in their last game against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday, and they'll likely have him test out the hamstring during shootaround to see if it can heal in time. Caruso has always been a player who does a lot of things well but won't win a fantasy matchup by himself. So, if fantasy managers are looking for some options just in case he doesn't play, Ayo Dosunmu should see plenty of opportunities while Jevon Carter and Onuralp Bitim will see minutes off of the bench.


Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kyle Anderson (knee) has been listed as doubtful on Friday while he suffers from a left knee sprain. The 30-year-old wasn't able to play in their last game either and it looks like his inactive streak will at least stretch to two games. Anderson's playing time has dwindled this season which has led to his contributions not amounting to that much fantasy relevance. He currently averages 6.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.1 assists, and 1.3 turnovers per game. While he sits out against the Sacramento Kings, fantasy managers can expect Jaden McDaniels to see more opportunities with the starting five while Naz Reid and Nickeil Alexander-Walker both see over 20 minutes off of the bench.



Memphis Grizzlies guards Luke Kennard (illness) and John Konchar (thumb) have both been listed as doubtful ahead of their Friday night matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers. This is likely going to be Konchar's third consecutive missed game and Kennard's second. With a team as banged up as the Grizzlies, they would have both seen around 20 minutes or more if they were able to suit up, but it looks like the youth movement will continue. While they watch from the sidelines, Vince Williams Jr., Jordan Goodwin, and GG Jackson II (questionable - quad) would all be quality streaming options regardless of fantasy league size or format.

Memphis Grizzlies forward GG Jackson II (quad) has popped up on the injury report again as he deals with a right quad contusion and has been listed as questionable. The Grizzlies currently have nine players listed as out or doubtful right now, so if Jackson can suit up, he should still see north of 25 minutes off of the bench like he has been recently. The former second-round pick has become a quality fantasy option in deeper leagues as he provides solid scoring, three-point shooting, and some rebounds. If he suits up, he should still be a good fantasy contributor, but if he has to be sidelined, Jake LaRavia and Lamar Stevens would likely see more opportunities off of the bench.


Portland Trail Blazers center Moses Brown (wrist) is officially questionable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies, which could potentially be his first game back since Jan. 1 after suffering a fractured wrist. In the last four games that he did appear in, he was a starter but didn't get any more than 15 minutes in any of them. If Brown does suit up, it's unclear how he'd fit into the rotation just yet. Duop Reath has stepped up as a serviceable backup big, and Deandre Ayton remains the starting center. Fantasy managers may want to hold off on picking Brown up until his minute situation is figured out moving forward.
