The Portland Trail Blazers are one of the most injury-riddled teams on the slate, with
Damian Lillard (OFS),
Jrue Holiday (Out),
Matisse Thybulle (Out),
Scoot Henderson (Out), and
Blake Wesley (Out). This leaves
Shaedon Sharpe,
Jerami Grant,
Kris Murray, and
Deni Avdija as the primary offensive options who will see immense usage. The Golden State Warriors are without
Al Horford (Out), but still feature a strong core of
Stephen Curry,
Jonathan Kuminga,
Draymond Green,
Jimmy Butler III, and
Buddy Hield. Expect the Warriors to control this game, with their stars being reliable fantasy plays. The Blazers, while likely underdogs, offer concentrated value through their few remaining active players.
