According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Isaiah Stewart (sprained right big toe) will be re-evaluated in 2-3 weeks. Stewart injured his toe during Monday’s loss to the Raptors, exiting after playing 13 minutes. Marvin Bagley, who started alongside Bagley, is the player who stands to gain the most as far as fantasy value is concerned. However, we’ve been down this road with Bagley before, and managers who refuse to play that game again cannot be blamed. Saddiq Bey could be back in the starting lineup with Stewart sidelined, as long as the Pistons aren’t intent on going with two bigs. Jalen Duren’s value will also be boosted, while Nerlens Noel should log consistent rotation minutes. There’s no need to add Noel right now.
Los Angeles Clippers DFS Spin
Paul George (left hand contusion) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Pistons. The good news is that the injury is on George’s non-shooting hand, which may increase the odds that he plays Thursday night. If he’s ruled out, Norman Powell and John Wall are the players who gain the most as far as fantasy is concerned. While Powell has gotten off to a slow start this season, Wall has provided solid value off the bench.
