Wiseman will start in Saturday's game against the Grizzlies.

After not seeing the court in Thursday's season-opening double-overtime loss to the Thunder, Wiseman will join the starting five. As a result, Isaiah Jackson will come off the bench.

Kornet (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Nets, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

Kornet will miss the front end of San Antonio's back-to-back set due to a sprained left ankle, and his next opportunity to play will come Monday against the Raptors. With the big man joining Kelly Olynyk (heel) on the sideline, Bismack Biyombo is likely to see a bump in minutes behind Victor Wembanyama.

Gafford (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Raptors.

Gafford is likely to miss his third consecutive game to start the season due to a sprained right ankle. If the big man remains sidelined, Dereck Lively and Dwight Powell are candidates for a bump in minutes.

Porzingis (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Thunder.

Porzingis continues to battle an illness, keeping him sidelined for a second straight game. The team will likely turn to Onyeka Okongwu, Mouhamed Gueye and Asa Newell to help shoulder the load in a shorthanded frontcourt that also won't have Zaccharie Risacher (ankle) and Jalen Johnson (ankle).

Robinson (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Heat.

Robinson has yet to make his season debut, as the team continues to use load management with the veteran big man. The squad will continue to lean on Ariel Hukporti and Guerschon Yabusele to help shoulder the load in the paint.

Towns (quadriceps) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Heat.

Towns continues to nurse a quadriceps strain. He's been able to play through the injury for now and is coming off an impressive 26-point double-double against the Celtics. If he can't play, the team may lean on Josh Hart (back) and Guerschon Yabusele to help pick up the slack.

Dante finished Friday's 111-107 win over the Magic with three rebounds across four minutes.

Dante didn't get much time on the floor during Friday's game. However, he managed to crash the glass in that short time. It's not likely the Oregon product will get many opportunities this season, meaning he's a non-factor from a fantasy perspective.

Williams (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Nuggets.

Williams will continue to be load-managed throughout the 2025-26 season, with the team going with a cautious approach with the Duke product. The squad will likely call on Oso Ighodaro to soak up more of Williams' minutes.

Gafford (ankle) is questionable to play in Sunday's game against the Raptors, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Gafford has yet to play a game this season, as he continues to nurse an ankle injury. If he is unable to play for a third straight game, the team will likely continue to lean on Dereck Lively in the frontcourt.

Holmgren (back) has been cleared to play in Saturday's game against the Hawks, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

Holmgren has been dealing with a back issue, but it won't keep him from playing. He's coming off a double-double performance in the win over the Pacers, and he's played well to start the 2025-26 campaign, averaging 21.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steals through two contests.
