Packed Injury Report: The Wizards injury report is packed for Wednesday’s contest. Veterans such as Malcolm Brogdon, Khris Middleton, Marcus Smart and Corey Kispert are out. Bilal Coulibaly and rookie Kyshawn George are also out. This means that players such as Justin Champagnie, Tristan Vukcevic and AJ Johnson should get decent run and can be streamed in.
Monitor Bona: Adem Bona only logged “only” 19 minutes on Monday night vs. the Pelicans, but still put up solid numbers. Bona has shown in the past that he can produce even in limited minutes, and can should be monitored accordingly.Stream of the Game
With how shorthanded the Wizards are, fantasy managers can look at Justin Champagnie as a streaming option.
Alternatives: Guerschon Yabusele and Justin Edwards. Tristan Vukcevic, AJ Johnson and Adem Bona (deeper formats).
Toronto Raptors @ Brooklyn Nets
Game Time: 7:30 pm ET

TOR +2.5 (+114), BKN -2.5 (-135)
Game Total: 215Key Storylines
Mogbo Trending Up: Rookie Jonathan Mogbo is trending in the right direction as of late. Mogbo amassed eight points, 11 rebounds and two steals in 24 minutes of action vs. the Wizards on Monday. The Raptors are currently playing multiple centers off the bench in Orlando Robinson and Chris Boucher, though Boucher is out, (Note: Colin Castleton’s 10-day has expired) but Mogbo saw some minutes at the four. Should this trend continue, Mogbo is someone to keep a close eye on down the stretch of the season.
Stream in Watford For Points: If there is one thing that Trendon Watford can do on the court, it is to put up a lot of shots. Watford’s game outside of scoring is more than lackluster, but he can help fantasy managers in need of points at this stage of the season, especially with Cam Johnson (rest) out on Wednesday and Day’Ron Sharpe also sidelined with a knee injury.

Keon Johnson can help fantasy managers in need of a boost in points and triples.
