Fantasy Impact: Anthony has been downgraded to out on Monday. He'll miss his second straight game due to a sprained ankle. In his recent absence, Nassir Little and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson each logged 14 minutes off the bench in the blowout win.

C.J. McCollum scored 27 points on 10-for-21 shooting with five rebounds, two assists, one steal, on block and four three-pointers in 33 minutes in the win over the Spurs on Saturday night.

Fantasy Impact: McCollum is now averaging 22.8 points on the season with 4.8 assists, 4.1 rebounds, 3.5 three-pointers and 1.0 steals over 43 games. The veteran guard should be owned in all fantasy leagues.

Jusuf Nurkic scored 17 points on 8-for-15 shooting with nine rebounds, five assists and one block over 20 minutes as the Blazers beat the Spurs on Saturday night.

Fantasy Impact: On the season, Nurkic is averaging 11.0 points, 8.8 boards, 3.3 assists and 1.0 blocks while shooting 51.0% percent from the field. The veteran big man should be owned in all fantasy leagues.

Nassir Little finished Saturday's win over the Spurs with six points on 3-for-4 shooting with three rebounds in 14 minutes.

Fantasy Impact: Little was able to get some playing time with Carmelo Anthony (ankle) ruled out and Derrick Jones Jr. picking up a DNP-CD. The second-year forward is seeing sporadic minutes and is not worth owning in fantasy.

Damian Lillard scored 30 points on 8-for-17 shooting with four rebounds, eight assists and four three-pointers in 31 minutes during Saturday's win over the Spurs.

Fantasy Impact: Over his last six games, Lillard is averaging 31.8 points, 9.0 assists, and 5.3 three-pointers made on 55% shooting. The All-Star guard should be owned in all fantasy leagues.

Enes Kanter scored 10 points on 4-for-8 shooting and grabbed 10 rebounds across 17 minutes in a 106-101 victory over the Lakers on Friday.

Fantasy Impact: Kanter picked up his second straight double-double despite logging only 17 minutes. The veteran big man is averaging 11.5 points and 11.2 boards while shooting a career-best 60.7 percent from the field on the season.

Norman Powell scored 19 points on 6-for-18 shooting with three triples, two rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block in 38 minutes as the Blazers beat the Lakers on Friday.

Fantasy Impact: Powell had sat out Wednesday as he is dealing with knee issues but was able to play on Friday. The veteran guard is averaging 20.0 points and 2.6 three-pointers over the last five games and should be owned in most fantasy formats.

Robert Covington scored three points on 1-for-10 shooting with eight rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block over 37 minutes as the Blazers beat the Lakers.

Fantasy Impact: Covington did not shoot well on Friday and was 1-for-7 from the three-point line. The veteran forward is averaging just 6.3 points on 30.8% shooting and is no longer a must-own in fantasy.

Anfernee Simons scored 27 points on 9-for-13 shooting with nine three-pointers, four rebounds, four assists and two steals across 24 minutes off the bench in Tuesday's win over the Pacers.

Fantasy Impact: Simons was red-hot on Tuesday and made his first nine three-point attempts, breaking the franchise record for most triples made without a miss. The 27 points also represent a season-high for the Simons, who has surpassed the 20-point mark just twice this season.

Derrick Jones Jr. scored four points on 2-for-6 shooting with two rebounds, two assists and a steal over 20 minutes as the Blazers lost to the Clippers by a 113-112 score.

Fantasy Impact: Jones picked up the start on Tuesday but did not do much with the opportunity. The 24-year-old forward has seen a reduction of minutes with the acquisition of Norman Powell and is no longer a must-own in fantasy leagues.

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson scored seven points on 1-for-5 shooting with five rebounds and one assist over 22 minutes as the Blazers lost to the Hornets on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Hollis-Jefferson picked up the spot-start over Derrick Jones Jr. on Sunday with Damian Lillard (hamstring) unavailable. The veteran forward is currently on his second 10-day deal with the team and is not worth owning in fantasy.

Fantasy Impact: Powell has been on fire this season, but so was Gary Trent Jr. when filling in for the injured C.J. McCollum. Powell figures to slot in as the starting small forward, while Trent could as well if Kyle Lowry is on the move. Stay tuned.

Rodney Hood scored three points on 1-for-5 shooting with three rebounds, two assists and one three-pointer over 20 minutes as the Blazers lost to the Nets on Tuesday night.

Fantasy Impact: Hood has had a disappointing season for fantasy owners as the veteran guard has had career lows in most categories. On the year Hood is averaging 4.7 points on 36% shooting over 38 games.
