December 7, 2022, 2:19 pmLet’s preview a large mid-week card to prepare fantasy managers for any streaming decisions they might have, plus our typical bonus DFS content at the end.
Los Angeles Clippers @ Orlando Magic
Game Time: 7:00 pm ET
Injury Report
Clippers: OUT: Norman Powell (left groin strain), Marcus Morris (illness), Luke Kennard (right calf injury management), John Wall (left knee injury management)
Magic: OUT: Wendell Carter Jr. (right plantar fascia strain), Jalen Suggs (right ankle soreness), Chuma Okeke (left knee soreness), Gary Harris (right hamstring strain), Jonathan Isaac (left knee)
Stream of the Game
Mo Bamba is immediately in the streaming conversation across all formats as he’s likely going to return to the starting unit with WCJ still ailing with the foot injury. On the Clippers side of things, Reggie Jackson is a low-end streaming option more suited for points leagues because of his inefficiencies.
Atlanta Hawks @ New York Knicks
Game Time: 7:30 pm ET
Injury Report
Hawks: OUT: John Collins (left ankle sprain), De’Andre Hunter (right hip flexor strain), Trent Forrest (concussion)
Knicks: OUT: Ryan Arcidiacono (left ankle sprain)
Stream of the Game
AJ Griffin, Jalen Johnson and Jarrett Culver are reasonable streaming targets while Hunter and Collins are ruled out, with Culver a peg below the two likely starters in Griffin and Johnson. Look for Griffin for your classic 3-and-D skill set while Johnson is a great target in search of rebounding help in the hopes that he can deliver something on the defensive end as well. Onyeka Okongwu is also a low-end option whose ceiling is capped with Clint Capela soaking up most of the center minutes for the Hawks.
Charlotte Hornets @ Brooklyn Nets
Game Time: 7:30 pm ET
Injury Report
Hornets: OUT: LaMelo Ball (left ankle sprain), Gordon Hayward (left shoulder fracture), Cody Martin (left knee procedure), Dennis Smith Jr. (left ankle sprain), Mark Williams (left ankle sprain)
Nets: OUT: Ben Simmons (left calf strain), Yuta Watanabe (right hamstring strain); QUESTIONABLE: Edmond Sumner (right glute contusion)
