Good news with Kon Knueppel set to return tomorrow! Grayson Allen had #FantasyBasketball value with him and White out, but now that they are healthy, he’s a drop in most leagues.
INJURY REPORT: @hornets at BKN 11/4
Kon Knueppel (L Hamstring Strain) and Coby White (L Calf Injury Management) are probable
Grant Williams (R Hamstring) is out

What a stat. #Pacers
From @StatsWilliams
In their 4 point loss, the Pacers used only 6 players against the Hawks.
That is the earliest into a season a team has used 6 or fewer players in a game since the Lakers in 1948 vs the Celtics.
The Lakers used only 5 players in their 3rd game of the season

Yesterday, Luka Doncic played 35 minutes and Austin Reaves played 39 minutes for the #Lakers. They are both playing tonight. Luka even played the entire first quarter. You love to see it! #FantasyBasketball

The #Pacers only lost by 4 points, but that doesn’t change anything. Of course the guys on the floor are trying to win. However, the team made a mockery of the game by resting starters and only having 6 players available. Even if they had won, it was a ridiculous decision to sit so many guys.

The #Pacers should be forced to refund ticket sales to customers and also be fined by the #NBA for this debacle tonight. This is not tanking, but it’s also not trying to win. You can’t only have 6 players available less than two weeks into the season because of rest days for three starters.

The #Pacers lost to the #Nets yesterday. Now they are resting Siakam, Nembhard and Nesmith tonight. We aren’t even 2 weeks into the season. I get the team’s logic, but this still makes me mad. #FantasyBasketball

Obi Toppin - Questionable (lumbar sprain)

Lamar Jackson is becoming the Kawhi Leonard of #FantasyFootball. Great when healthy, but it’s always something with him.
