Peyton Watson - Chance to play Saturday Watson (side) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Rockets.

Impact Watson was unable to play against the Magic on Thursday due to a right trunk contusion, but he may limit his absence to one game if he's cleared to return Saturday. He was in the Nuggets' starting lineup in the 14 games prior to Thursday's contest, and over that span he averaged 14.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.6 threes and 1.1 blocks over 30.2 minutes per game.

Jonathan Isaac - Questionable against Utah Isaac is questionable for Saturday's game against the Jazz with a left hip contusion.

Impact After sitting out Thursday's loss to the Nuggets, Isaac's status remains in limbo for Saturday. Tristan da Silva (shoulder) joins Isaac as a questionable mark, meaning Jett Howard could be worth streaming in shallow leagues and Jase Richardson in deeper settings if both players end up being out of action.

Jalen Suggs - Doubtful for Saturday Suggs (hip) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Jazz.

Impact Suggs is trending towards missing his second straight game for Orlando. He was not given a timetable by the Magic, so fantasy managers can consider him day-to-day since he hasn't been completely ruled out for this contest.

Tristan da Silva - Iffy for Saturday Da Silva is questionable for Saturday's game against the Jazz due to a right shoulder contusion.

Impact Da Silva is in danger of missing consecutive outings with the injury. With Jonathan Isaac (hip) also iffy for Saturday, Jett Howard could be a viable streaming option in all fantasy formats if da Silva and Isaac are both sidelined.

Jett Howard - Strong showing from second unit Howard recorded 12 points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Thursday's 126-115 loss to Denver.

Impact Howard got a chance at some extended run Thursday, given that Jalen Suggs (hip), Jonathan Isaac (hip) and Tristan da Silva (shoulder) were all sidelined. The 29 minutes matched a season high, so Howard's fantasy prospects are likely to hinge upon the availability of some of Orlando's key players in Saturday's tilt against Utah.

Jalen Pickett - Fares well off bench Pickett totaled nine points (3-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt), three rebounds and seven assists over 24 minutes during Thursday's 126-115 win over the Magic.

Impact With several players injured in Denver, Pickett has emerged with some solid performances recently. Over his last three appearances, Pickett has averaged 6.7 points, 4.7 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 2.0 three-pointers in 21.6 minutes per contest.
