October 19, 2022, 1:16 pmIt’s kind of funny to be discussing streamers at this stage of the year before any of these teams have played their first game, but here we are talking fantasy hoops and isn’t it glorious. Some surprising injury news should allow for some interesting adds right out of the gate and let’s dive in.
Orlando Magic @ Detroit Pistons
Game Time: 7:00 pm ET
Injury Report
Magic: OUT: Markelle Fultz (left big toe fracture), Gary Harris (left knee), Jonathan Isaac (left knee), Moritz Wagner (right midfoot sprain)
Pistons: OUT: Marvin Bagley III (right knee sprain), Isaiah Livers (right hip soreness), Alec Burks (left navicular fracture)

Terrence Ross looked rejuvenated in the preseason and could be worth a dart-throw as a streaming option with the hopes that he sees big minutes off the bench or perhaps even gets the starting nod. It’s by far a sure thing, but Ross has a shot at delivering low-end 12-team value out of the gate if he takes on the additional minutes that have been vacated by the absence of Gary Harris after he rehabilitated his value in 2021-22 with Orlando.
Washington Wizards @ Indiana Pacers
Game Time: 7:00 pm ET
Injury Report
Wizards: OUT: Corey Kispert (left ankle sprain); QUESTIONABLE: Vernon Carey Jr. (concussion)
Pacers: OUT: Daniel Theis (right knee soreness); QUESTIONABLE: Jalen Smith (right knee soreness), Aaron Nesmith (left foot soreness)
Stream of the Game
I would prefer to look at other contests for streaming options as the likely beneficiary of a potential Smith absence is already rostered in most formats in Isaiah Jackson. Perhaps Deni Avdija could be a guy that can deliver some value, but his return from injury in the opener is not something I’d bank on in 12-team leagues.
Houston Rockets @ Atlanta Hawks
Game Time: 7:30 pm ET
Injury Report
Rockets: OUT: Jae’Sean Tate (left ankle soreness), TyTy Washington (left knee sprain); PROBABLE: Daishen Nix (back soreness)
Hawks: OUT: Bogdan Bogdanović (right knee)
