Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray (ankle) won't suit up on Tuesday versus the Milwaukee Bucks. The 23-year-old tweaked his ankle during Sunday's meeting with the Houston Rockets. He had been labeled as questionable throughout Tuesday. However, most fantasy managers weren't expecting him to be on the floor. Of course, with Murray absent, the door is open for Trey Lyles and Harrison Barnes to get more work. As a result, both men are viable streaming options in any fantasy setup.
Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray (ankle) could miss his fifth game of the season on Tuesday versus Milwaukee, as he has landed on the injury report as questionable. The 23-year-old sharpshooter injured his left ankle against Houston on Sunday. Murray was able to get through Monday's practice fully, so he actually might be closer to probable than questionable for the game. The former Iowa Hawkeye has been in a bit of a slump lately, averaging only 10.2 points. His last game against the Bucks went miserably as well, as Murray was limited to only four points, so he might not be a strong fantasy play on Tuesday even if he suits up. Murray's absence would put Trey Lyles and Harrison Barnes in a position to log extended minutes.
Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis was one assist shy of his 23rd triple-double this season but was still able to lead the team to a two-point win over the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday. Sabonis has been one of the most impressive players in the league this year but has constantly been overlooked just like he was for the NBA All-Star game. In this game, he finished with 31 points, 17 rebounds, nine assists, one steal, one block, and four turnovers while cashing in on 14 of his 19 field goal attempts. He now has 58 double-doubles and 23 games of 15 or more rebounds this season. He'll be a sleeper fantasy league winner this season after coming in as a second-round pick according to his ADP.
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jordan McLaughlin (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday's game against the Indiana Pacers. McLaughlin is in danger of missing two straight games due to an illness. If he sits, Monte Morris will be asked to be the primary backup guard for Thursday's game. It would be an increased role for him but probably not enough to warrant streaming in most fantasy formats.
Indiana Pacers forward Doug McDermott (calf) will be unavailable for a fifth consecutive game on Thursday against Minnesota. The 32-year-old sharpshooter is trying to recover from a right calf strain. The Pacers miss McDermott's ability to stretch the floor, but his return to Indianapolis hasn't gone well. McDermott has been limited to only 3.2 points in 11.0 minutes across six games, with his three-point percentage dropping to 20. Muscle strains usually take 2-3 weeks to heal, so it wouldn't be surprising to see McDermott miss further time.
