Miami Heat guard/forward Klay Thompson scored a season-high 25 points in Friday's 145-125 NBA Cup win over the Indiana Pacers, shooting 9-for-14 from the field and 7-for-12 from three. The 36-year-old caught fire in the third quarter with 15 points as Miami pulled away. Thompson entered the night averaging only 7.8 points on 31.7 percent shooting through five games, making the breakout a welcome change. His fantasy value still leans heavily on his jumper, but nights like this show the scoring upside remains when the threes are falling. Miami begins a five-game road trip Monday against the Lakers.

Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving scored a season-high 35 points with four rebounds and nine assists in Friday's 116-111 NBA Cup win over the Houston Rockets. Irving shot 12-for-19 from the field, 5-for-8 from deep and 6-for-6 at the line, pouring in 26 points after halftime as Dallas erased an 11-point deficit. His jumper with just over two minutes left broke a 100-100 tie, while Cooper Flagg added 33 points. Irving is averaging 21.4 points and 4.8 assists through five games, and this was easily his best offensive showing of the young season.

Miami Heat forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo piled up 31 points, 18 rebounds, and 10 assists in Friday's 145-125 NBA Cup win over the Indiana Pacers. He shot 13-for-19 from the field and committed just one turnover in 31 minutes, becoming the first player in Heat history with at least 30 points, 15 rebounds, and 10 assists in a game. It was Antetokounmpo's second triple-double in three outings after totaling only nine assists across his first three games. He is now averaging 28.2 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 5.5 assists, and the recent jump in playmaking only adds to his already elite fantasy profile.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry poured in 31 points, four rebounds, and six assists in Friday's 112-95 NBA Cup win over the Los Angeles Lakers. Curry went 11-for-23 from the field and 8-for-14 from deep as Golden State erased a 25-point deficit. One of those fourth-quarter triples moved him past Dominique Wilkins for 18th on the NBA's all-time scoring list. Brandin Podziemski added 21 points, while De'Anthony Melton and Georges Niang combined for 27 off the bench. Curry's volume from deep remains a major fantasy strength heading into Sunday's matchup with the Clippers.

Memphis Grizzlies center Quinten Post (ankle) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings after leaving Thursday's win over Portland early. Post was productive before exiting, scoring 10 points with four rebounds in seven minutes while knocking down two of his three attempts from deep. The 26-year-old is averaging 7.6 points and 2.6 rebounds through five games while providing Memphis with some shooting off the bench. Isaiah Stewart could see more frontcourt work if Post sits after scoring 18 points on 7-for-10 shooting Thursday.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Jaylon Tyson (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Tyson played through a cervical strain Thursday in Atlanta but is now dealing with a sprained ankle. The 23-year-old has had a quiet start to his third season, though he did score 15 points with three triples against Brooklyn after managing three points in the opener. Mario Hezonja and Sam Merrill could pick up more minutes with Tyson sidelined, while Meleek Thomas (foot) would also be in the mix if cleared. Tyson's next chance to return comes Monday against Oklahoma City.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Meleek Thomas (foot) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks after missing Thursday's loss to Atlanta with foot inflammation. The rookie has made an immediate impact since entering the rotation, scoring 16 points with four threes in his NBA debut against Minnesota before adding 10 points against Washington. Thomas is averaging 13.0 points on 58.8 percent shooting in 19.5 minutes through two appearances. With Jaylon Tyson (ankle) already ruled out, Thomas could have room for a larger bench role if he is cleared to play.

Portland Trail Blazers center Robert Williams III (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz after sitting out Thursday against Memphis for injury management. The 29-year-old is averaging 9.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 1.0 blocks in 18.0 minutes through three appearances. Williams also closed Tuesday's win over the Lakers with 14 points and 10 rebounds in 21 minutes. If he sits again, Donovan Clingan should have more room to work inside, while Yang Hansen, Micah Potter, and Branden Carlson could all be candidates for extra reserve minutes.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (wrist) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Markkanen sprained his wrist early in Monday's loss to Memphis and sat out Wednesday's overtime defeat to San Antonio. The 29-year-old had averaged 20.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 2.3 assists through three games before the injury. Utah is already without Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) and Jusuf Nurkic (foot), so another Markkanen absence would leave plenty of work for Ace Bailey. Keyonte George should also remain heavily involved after scoring 31 points Wednesday.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ty Jerome (back) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The issue first surfaced shortly before Thursday's win over Portland, but Jerome still started and finished with 10 points on 3-for-12 shooting in 24 minutes. The 29-year-old is averaging career highs of 25.8 points and 5.8 assists through five games after earning Western Conference Player of the Week honors to open the season. Jerome also scored 31 points against Sacramento last Sunday. If he sits, Scotty Pippen Jr. (back) would be the first name to watch if cleared, while Cam Spencer could take on a larger role if both guards are unavailable.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Scotty Pippen Jr. (back) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The 25-year-old has appeared in all five games for the unbeaten Grizzlies, but his playing time has dipped below 15 minutes in each of the last two. Pippen is averaging 6.4 points, 2.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.0 steals in 16.0 minutes this season. Ty Jerome (back) is also questionable, which could leave Memphis thin at point guard. Cam Spencer would be the name to watch if both sit after posting eight points, six rebounds, and eight assists in 23 minutes Thursday.

The Oklahoma City Thunder are signing guard/forward Ochai Agbaji to fill their open roster spot, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. The move gives Oklahoma City another wing option after Jalen Williams (leg) and Cason Wallace (shoulder) underwent surgery. Agbaji averaged 5.1 points and 2.3 rebounds across 62 games with Toronto and Brooklyn last season before being waived by New York ahead of this season. He shot just 18.5 percent from three with the Raptors, though he connected at a 39.9 percent clip in 2024-25. With Oklahoma City short on healthy wings, Agbaji should get a chance to compete for rotation minutes, but his shooting will need to improve for him to hold onto them.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (personal) is not listed on the injury report for Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks after missing Thursday for the birth of his son. The 30-year-old is averaging 17.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 6.0 assists, and 2.0 steals in 32.3 minutes through four games. Herbert Jones started in his place Thursday and finished with 16 points and two steals, but he should head back to the bench with Murray returning. Jordan Poole (ankle) remains out, leaving Murray with plenty of opportunities to handle the ball against his former team.

Denver's G Christian Braun scored 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in a 127-120 win over Phoenix on Friday, Oct. 30. Braun is owned in only 44.4% leagues.

Dallas' G Kyrie Irving scored 35 points on 12-of-19 shooting in a 116-111 win over the Rockets on Friday, Oct. 30. Irving is owned in very few, if any leagues.

Heat's F Giannis Antetokounmpo recorded a triple-double, finishing with 31 points, 10 assists and 18 rebounds in a 145-125 win over the Pacers on Friday, Oct. 30.

Toronto Raptors' F Scottie Barnes scored 41 points on 19-of-34 shooting in a 114-121 loss to the Magic on Friday, Oct. 30.

Lakers' G Luka Doncic scored 37 points on 12-of-27 shooting in a 95-112 loss to Golden State on Friday, Oct. 30. Doncic is owned in only 50.0% leagues.

Warriors' G Stephen Curry scored 31 points on 11-of-23 shooting in a 112-95 win over the Lakers on Friday, Oct. 30. Curry is owned in only 61.1% leagues.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Cason Wallace (shoulder) underwent surgery to repair a torn labrum and will be re-evaluated before the end of the 2026-27 regular season, the team announced. Wallace led the NBA with 150 steals last season while averaging 1.9 per game and earning All-Defensive Second Team honors. His absence leaves Oklahoma City without one of its best perimeter defenders for an extended stretch. Ajay Mitchell has already taken on more responsibility, including a career-high 30-point game against Phoenix, while Jared McCain should also continue seeing steady minutes in the backcourt.
