Alec Burks Probable Against The Defending Champs

Detroit Pistons guard Alec Burks (hamstring) is expected to play on Sunday versus the Denver Nuggets. Burks has slowed down since averaging 15 points per game in October. However, he scored at least 21 points or more in the previous two games leading up to Friday's loss to the Warriors, so there may be something there for fantasy managers willing to risk putting him in the starting lineup.

Richaun Holmes Not Expected To Play On Sunday

Dallas Mavericks center Richaun Holmes (personal) is doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The 30-year-old has missed the last two games, so it appears he's moving toward another absence. That said, Holmes has rarely seen the floor this season, averaging 3.8 rebounds and 3.4 points in 10.6 minutes per contest. He could see more action on Sunday, if he plays, considering Dereck Lively II (ankle) is expected to miss another game. However, Dwight Powell should get the most minutes in the middle, although he likely won't offer fantasy managers anything outside of rebounds.

Grant Williams May Not Play On Sunday

Dallas Mavericks forward Grant Williams (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Timberwolves. He's dealing with a sprained right ankle, keeping him out of the lineup in Friday's win over the Portland Trail Blazers. Luka Doncic (ankle) didn't play in that game, either, so Williams could have gotten more involved offensively. At any rate, if Williams can suit up and Doncic can't, he is worth considering as a streaming option for fantasy managers. However, the former Celtic will be a risky option in any format.

Dereck Lively II Doubtful On Sunday

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (ankle) isn't expected to suit up for Sunday's game versus the Minnesota Timberwolves. The rookie has played well this season, averaging 8.7 points, 7.6 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks in 29 appearances. However, he's been battling a sprained ankle, an injury he sustained versus the Trail Blazers on Wednesday evening. With Maxi Kleber (toe) out and Richaun Holmes (doubtful), Dwight Powell could continue to fill most of the void underneath the basket. Powell got the start on Friday for the rematch against Portland, finishing with nine rebounds, one block, and one steal. But he only scored six points, so he has limited potential for category managers outside his contributions on the glass and defensive end.

Luka Doncic Questionable Versus Minnesota

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the visiting Timberwolves. He didn't suit up on Friday night versus Portland because of right ankle swelling. As a result, Kyrie Irving led the way offensively, finishing with a game-high 24 points, adding nine rebounds, five assists, two steals, and two blocks. Additionally, Tim Hardaway Jr., Jaden Hardy, and Josh Green got more involved on the scoring end, so they will remain streaming options in all fantasy leagues if Doncic misses his second consecutive contest.
