Fantasy Impact:

Lillard will miss his first game of the season Tuesday, and it's unclear if he'll miss any more time. Expect CJ McCollum to handle a huge workload in the backcourt, while Anfernee Simmons could garner his first start of the season. Simmons is a cheap DFS play who should see a sizeable share of minutes. The offensive-minded guard has averaged 11.3 points, 1.6 triples and 1.3 assists this season across 21.3 minutes off the bench.
