This will be the third missed game in a row for Wemby as he continues to deal with a knee issue. Zach Collins will continue to start for the Spurs in the meantime and is worth streaming.
A reliable streaming option with Victor Wembanyama, Collins is also on the injury report for Thursday's game. Charles Bassey and Sandro Mamukelashvili become more essential options within the Spurs rotation if Collins cannot play. In the case of Bassey, he's worth a speculative add in deep leagues after tallying 12 points, eight rebounds, one steal, and two blocks in 21 minutes off the bench on Tuesday.
Wembanyama (knee) is out for Thursday's game against the Jazz.
Barnes stepped up in the absence of Victor Wembanyama. He had 20 points on 12 shots and knocked down three 3-pointers. Barnes was +17 in 32 minutes, which led the team. He's a deep league option only, but can still step up with a big game occasionally. Wembanyama will likely be back on Thursday against the Jazz, which will cut into Barnes' opportunities significantly.
SGA continues to have big names. It's needed now more than ever as the Thunder are missing Chet Holmgren and others. Gilgeous-Alexander's 32 points and seven assists weren't enough to hold off the Spurs on Thursday even without Victor Wembanyama. Oklahoma City will continue to lean heavily on SGA in the early part of this season, which is good for his fantasy value. The Thunder take on the Trail Blazers Wednesday in the second night of a back-to-back.
