Outlook Moritz Wagner
Moritz Wagner at Pelicans — Backup Frontcourt Outlook
Moritz Wagner remains healthy and slotted into Brooklyn's second unit as the primary backup center behind starter Day'Ron Sharpe. Over his last six games, Wagner has supplied efficient scoring with 10.5 points and 3.5 rebounds in 18.8 minutes per contest. Despite his solid per-minute production, fantasy sentiment has cooled, with his roster rate slipping to 9% due to a capped rotational ceiling.
In tonight’s road matchup against New Orleans, our models project Wagner for 16.2 fantasy points alongside 9 points and 4 rebounds across 16 minutes. Facing the Pelicans, his modest role off the pine leaves him with minimal standalone value outside of deeper formats. Brooklyn also navigates a light two-game weekly schedule, tempering his appeal as a short-term streamer.

Outlook Maxime Raynaud
Maxime Raynaud vs Magic — Sidelined Tonight Amid Knee Rehab
Maxime Raynaud remains out tonight as he continues to recover from a preseason right patellar subluxation, though he recently shared an encouraging update about his rehab path. The second-year big man has yet to appear this season, remaining inactive on Sacramento's depth chart behind starter Domantas Sabonis. With no firm return date, fantasy managers have steadily cut ties, lowering his ownership to 14% and start rate to 1%.
Our projections expect zero minutes and zero fantasy points tonight against Orlando at Golden 1 Center. As the Kings navigate a three-game weekly slate that includes matchups against Portland and Oklahoma City, Raynaud will need additional clearance before returning. He should remain benched or stashed in an IR spot across standard fantasy leagues until a formal re-evaluation occurs.
