Miami Heat center Orlando Robinson (back) will be available Thursday versus Denver. He has been absent for the last three games with a back issue. Robinson will be an extra body to through at Nikola Jokic, but he isn't expected to see a lot of minutes. For the season, he's averaged 10.0 minutes in 24 games. On Thursday night, Robinson might see a bit more action due to the absences of Kevin Love (heel) and Thomas Bryant (suspension), but it's still unlikely that he will play a significant role.

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (knee) is now out for Wednesday's meeting with the Denver Nuggets. He injured his left knee on Tuesday in the loss to the Miami Heat. However, the 26-year-old finished with 27 points in 39 minutes. Fox did go through shootaround on Wednesday, so there's a good chance he'll be back in the lineup on Friday in Minnesota. Davion Mitchell is expected to slide into the starting lineup. But the 2021 No. 9 overall pick has averaged just 8.3 points in three starts this season, meaning he's hard to trust for fantasy purposes. On the other hand, Malik Monk should spend more time at the one, brightening his fantasy outlook on Wednesday evening.

According to Sacramento Kings head coach Mike Brown, guard De'Aaron Fox (knee) will go through pre-game warmups ahead of Wednesday's meeting with the Denver Nuggets. If all goes well, he'll suit up. The 26-year-old suffered a left knee contusion in Tuesday's loss to the Miami Heat. Yet, he still finished with 27 points while logging 39 minutes. Without question, Denver needs him out there against the defending champs. However, if Fox can't play, Malik Monk could see more action at the one, regardless of whether it's starting or off the bench, making him a must-start in all fantasy setups.

Miami Heat center Orlando Robinson (back) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Robinson appears to be back on track to play after missing the first three games since the All-Star break. It looks like Robinson will be ready for Thursday's game, but he hasn't been making a huge impact when healthy anyway. Fantasy managers can probably find a better option for Thursday's slate.

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (knee), who is still questionable for Wednesday's tilt against the Denver Nuggets, was a full participant in the morning shootaround. Fox is nursing a left knee contusion, but his presence at Wednesday's session bodes well for his game status. Consider the speedy point guard to be on the right side of the questionable tag. Fox has made at least 12 field goals in each of his last five showings, piling up 31.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 7.2 dimes, and 2.6 steals per game covering this interval ahead of a tough matchup against a Nuggets group that's allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing point guards, according to DraftKings scoring.
