San Antonio Spurs forward Tobias Harris (calf) will miss his second consecutive game Friday against the Houston Rockets. Harris continues to recover from a left calf strain and has yet to make his Spurs debut. The 34-year-old veteran averaged 13.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 2.5 assists across 63 starts for Detroit last season before signing a two-year, $31 million deal with San Antonio. His next opportunity to suit up comes Saturday against the Dallas Mavericks. Julian Champagnie and Devin Vassell remain appealing streaming options while Harris is sidelined.

Los Angeles Lakers forward Jake LaRavia (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. LaRavia sprained his right ankle during Wednesday's win over the Warriors, finishing with 10 points, two assists, two rebounds, and one steal in 18 minutes before exiting. If the 24-year-old is unable to suit up Friday, Quentin Grimes, Matisse Thybulle, and Ziaire Williams could see additional playing time, potentially boosting their short-term fantasy value.

Sacramento Kings guard Malik Monk (ankle) is listed as probable for Friday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. Monk has been dealing with left ankle soreness throughout training camp and missed Wednesday's regular-season opener. He averaged 12.5 points, 3.0 assists, and 2.0 three-pointers across 62 games last campaign. With Ben Simmons (Achilles) out for the season, Sacramento's backcourt depth is already being tested, so Monk's return could be a big boost. If he stays healthy, the 28-year-old could provide solid fantasy value with his scoring and three-point shooting.

Los Angeles Lakers guard Collin Sexton (calf) is available for Friday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. The 27-year-old missed Wednesday's regular-season opener due to a calf strain but is now set to make his Lakers debut. Sexton averaged 17.5 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 1.5 steals in 26 games with Chicago last season while shooting 48.2 percent from the field and 41.0 percent from three-point range. His fantasy upside could be limited in 2026-27, as Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves are expected to handle most of the Lakers' offensive responsibilities.
