Golden State Warriors

Draymond Green- Mild Muscle Strain – OUT – Eric Paschall will be moving into a starting role. You will see Eric Paschall has the best value rating in our Projections Portal. The Warriors are thin and will need to move players down in order to fill out their minutes. We will see some creative lineups with Wiggins playing the 4. Chriss isn’t able to play the 4 like he used to, he is a true center on this Warriors team. The Warriors will be getting Wiseman back from the Covid list.

Brooklyn Nets

Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving- We will look to see what type of minutes report we get from the Nets tomorrow. They may keep it tight to the vest and play the situation by ear. This will be Kevin Durant’s first regular season action since tearing his Achilles. They will not push Durant right away, we currently have Kevin Durant for 31 minutes in our NBA Projections Portal.

Los Angeles Clippers

Marcus Morris- Right Knee Soreness- OUT- This is an injury that has been bothering him for years. Batum will move into a starting role at the 4. He has not been great in recent years posting a low teen usage rate. He is a viable DFS punt play if trying to jam in the studs.

Los Angeles Lakers

Dennis Schroder- Will Play- After missing the last two preseason games with a sprained ankle, Dennis will be available for the Lakers opener. We still don’t have a starting for Lakers, that will be some news to monitor tomorrow.
