Bulls' G Josh Giddey recorded a triple-double, finishing with 28 points, 11 assists and 11 rebounds in a 103-113 loss to the Nets on Wednesday, Dec. 3.

Nuggets' G Jamal Murray scored 52 points on 19-of-25 shooting in a 135-120 win over Indiana on Wednesday, Dec. 3.

According to Will Gottlieb of AllCHGO.com, Chicago Bulls guard/forwardKevin Huerter(hamstring) will miss at least one week due to a hamstring injury before he is re-evaluated. The 27-year-old could return to action on Dec 12, versus the Hornets. While Huerter is absent, Ayo Dosunmu will likely take on extra minutes and could make a significant impact in fantasy with an expanded role. Through 18 appearances this season, Dosunmu is averaging 15.8 points and 3.2 assists across 27.4 minutes per contest.

Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford (ankle) didn't return to Wednesday's meeting with the Miami Heat. He's been battling a right ankle injury for months. Although the 27-year-old was listed on the injury report heading into this contest, he still managed to suit up. Unfortunately, he logged only 14 minutes before re-aggravating the issue, finishing the night with two points, five boards, and one steal. With a matchup against OKC on tap for Friday evening, fantasy managers should start making plans in the event Gafford can't get on the floor. Dereck Lively II (foot) is still without a firm return date, and P.J. Washington (ankle) also isn't healthy, meaning Anthony Davis may need to spend all of his time at the five spot. Moussa Cisse could also be more involved than usual, even though he has a way to go in order to earn a place in most fantasy lineups.

Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (thigh) exited Wednesday's loss to the New York Knicks. He did not return. With LaMelo Ball (wrist) available, Sexton came off the bench. Unfortunately, he ended up logging only nine minutes before suffering a thigh injury, finishing with four points. The 26-year-old has shuffled between the starting lineup and reserve roles throughout the 2025 campaign. However, no matter his role, he's still played well enough to be considered an every day fantasy option in all formats despite not doing much outside of his contributions on the scoring end. Charlotte won't play again until Friday in Toronto. If Sexton doesn't suit up, there are several directions head coach Charles Lee may go with the rotation, with Liam McNeeley and Tidjane Salaun the favorites to see more work. There's also a chance KJ Simpson gets the bump up from the G League.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) won't return to Wednesday's meeting with the Detroit Pistons. He was listed on the injury report but was able to suit up. However, on a day when it was reported that the multi-time MVP was contemplating his future with the franchise, he exited after only three minutes due to a right calf strain. The Bucks don't play again until Friday versus the visiting Philadelphia 76ers. Considering Antetokounmpo recently missed four games because of a groin strain, it's certainly possible he might be looking at more time off the floor. If that happens, Bobby Portis, averaging 18.5 points and 7.5 rebounds in two starts this season, could work his way back into the starting lineup, with Ryan Rollins and Kevin Porter Jr. anticipated to do most of the heavy lifting offensively.

According to Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun, Miami Heat guard/forwardPelle Larsson(ankle) is available to play against the Dallas Mavericks after carrying a questionable tag earlier on Monday. Larsson is nursing a toe sprain in his right foot. However, the injury won't keep him out of action during tonight's tilt. The 24-year-old has played in all 21 Heat games this season, posting averages of 9.7 points, 4.6 assists, and 2.7 rebounds across 22.5 minutes per contest. Miami may take a cautious approach and limit Larrson's minutes this evening as he deals with the new injury.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (ankle) will miss Wednesday's game against Miami after being ruled out despite taking part in the shootaround. Washington's absence leaves a clear lane for Naji Marshall, who logged nine points, seven rebounds, and six assists across 33 minutes in Monday's win over Denver. Marshall profiles as a short-term streamer for rebounds, defensive stats, and low-end scoring while Washington remains sidelined, especially with Dallas thin at the forward spots. His next chance to return comes Friday against Oklahoma City, the front end of a back-to-back set.

Chicago Bulls forward Jalen Smith (hamstring) will remain sidelined for the third straight game on Wednesday. Smith has been officially ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets due to a lingering hamstring issue. The Bulls are shorthanded right now, which means Nikola Vucevic will probably play as many minutes as he can handle. Over the last three games, Vucevic has registered two double doubles in 30 minutes or more in all three contests. The veteran center has been offering nearly top five production at his position. Fantasy managers should make sure to get Vucevic active in their lineups ahead of tip-off.

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (wrist) is available for Wednesday's game against the Knicks. The 2020 No. 3 overall pick has been listed on the injury report plenty of times throughout the 2025 campaign, mostly due to ankle issues. However, wrist soreness won't be enough to keep him off the floor, and he'll now suit up for his fifth-straight contest. Ball has struggled offensively this season, amassing 18.9 points per contest, although he's made up for it by averaging a career-high 8.9 assists. As always, he should be featured in all fantasy lineups, although DFS managers may want to tread carefully, considering the Knicks have been sound defensively all season.

Chicago Bulls guard Tre Jones (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Jones has gone in the wrong direction after initially being listed as probable on the injury report. Now, Jones will officially sit out after tweaking his ankle during Monday's loss to the Orlando Magic. The absence of Jones should mean increased playing time for Ayo Dosunmu and Jevon Carter. Between the two, Dosunmu is the better streaming option for Wednesday's slate. Dosunmu has scored 15 points or more in three of his last four games. He should be able to produce viable streaming value with an increased role on Wednesday.

Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against Miami after missing two straight contests. Gafford has averaged 7.2 points, 7.6 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks over his last five active outings, including an 11-point, 11-rebound double-double against the Heat on Nov. 24. His return steadies Dallas' frontcourt and immediately trims the minutes of Dwight Powell and Moussa Cisse, taking both off the streaming radar outside of very deep leagues. Gafford remains a reliable source of efficient scoring, rebounds, and blocks when he lands in the mid-20s for minutes.

Detroit Pistons guard/forwardDuncan Robinson(ankle) will miss his second game in a row on Wednesday versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Robinson is dealing with a right ankle sprain and was out for the first time this season on Monday versus the Hawks.Daniss Jenkins started while Robinson was out of action, registering six points, eight rebounds, and six assists. Even withCade Cunninghamin the lineup, Jenkins had the most shot attempts on the team. However, he finished 3-for-16 from the field. Despite the off night, Jenkins has done well as a starter this season and will be a solid fantasy option if he remains in the first unit against a weak Bucks defense during tonight's tilt.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija (ankle) is available to play ahead of Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Avdija has been upgraded to available after being tagged as questionable due to an ankle sprain. It looks like he'll play through the injury during the second leg of this back-to-back set. It's possible that Avdija is somewhat limited because of the ankle injury. However, fantasy managers shouldn't be worried about his production. Avdija has been elite with 25.8 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 6.1 assists across 34.2 minutes per game this season. Fantasy managers should get him active in their lineups ahead of tip-off.

Houston Rockets center Steven Adams (ankle) is available for Wednesday's matchup with Sacramento after missing Monday's loss in Utah. His return shifts the frontcourt rotation after Clint Capela logged only 9 minutes in that contest, while Alperen Sengun delivered 31 points, eight rebounds, 14 assists, two steals, and five blocks across 38 minutes. Adams has averaged 10.2 rebounds over his last five active games, giving him deep-league value for boards and defensive stats, though his minutes tend to fluctuate. Capela remains the primary player affected, with his role tightening whenever Adams is active.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Lonzo Ball (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against Portland after missing two straight contests. Ball last logged 17 minutes in Atlanta, producing three points, five rebounds, and four assists, and he continues to deliver low-usage playmaking with scattered defensive value when active. His minute volatility remains the main concern given ongoing injury management, making him more of a deep-league assists specialist than a standard-league hold. His return slightly trims opportunities for Craig Porter Jr. and reduces secondary ball-handling touches for Darius Garland.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis (eye) is available to play ahead of Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Portis was a late addition to the injury report due to a left eye injury. He was able to get through warmups without any issues, so he will be available for this contest. Portis has been a less than ideal fantasy option this season. He'll continue to battle with Kyle Kuzma and Jericho Sims for minutes in the rotation. So far, Portis is averaging 11.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 1.2 assists across 21.4 minutes per game. He does enough to warrant being used as a streaming option, but he isn't a must-have player in 12-team formats right now.

Milwaukee Bucks point guardKevin Porter Jr.(back) is available to suit up for Wednesday's meeting with the Detroit Pistons. Porter exited Monday's loss to the Washington Wizards with lower back spasms. The 25-year-old registered 30 points with 12-for-15 shooting before leaving the game. However, the injury won't keep him out of action for tonight's clash. If Porter has a setback this evening, Ryan Rollins, A.J. Green, andGary Trent Jr.will soak up the available minutes.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (groin) has been cleared to play ahead of Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. As expected, Antetokounmpo will suit up after being listed as probable on the earlier injury report. The superstar forward figures to resume his regular role in the rotation. He's averaging 30.6 points, 10.7 rebounds, and 6.4 assists across 30.8 minutes per game through 16 games this season. Antetokounmpo is a top three fantasy contributor at the moment. Fantasy managers should double check their lineups and make sure Antetokounmpo is in there ahead of tip-off.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is available for Wednesday's meeting with Indiana after briefly carrying a questionable tag. Murray logged 10 points, four rebounds, and nine assists across 26 minutes in Monday's loss to Dallas, continuing a strong five-game stretch that includes 37, 29, and 24-point outings. His availability keeps Denver's offensive structure intact and secures his floor in all formats. Nikola Jokic maintains his typical usage, while Spencer Jones and Tim Hardaway Jr. retain deeper-league relevance with Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Christian Braun (ankle) still out.
