Fantasy Impact:

Barea played through the injury last Friday and played well, but then sat out the team's following game that Saturday. Fantasy owners should check on Barea's status closer to game time, but his ability to play at full capacity is far from a sure thing. If Barea can't go, Yogi Ferrell will make for a great play in daily and season-long leagues with Wesley Matthews and Dennis Smith Jr. both out the lineup.
