Injuries are wreaking havoc across the NBA, affecting teams and players alike. Dante DiVincenzo's grade-three toe sprain presents a significant blow to the Golden State Warriors, likely sidelining him for an extended period, potentially four to five months. With his absence, players like Mike Conley and Nikhil Alexander-Walker may see increased minutes, while Rob Dillingham's performance might be a point of interest as he steps into a rotational role.

Brandon Miller is also anticipated to be out for the remainder of the season due to a significant shoulder injury, with indications pointing towards surgery. This opens the door for Nick Smith, who has stepped into a starting role and is expected to contribute significantly for the Charlotte Hornets.

The Atlanta Hawks are feeling the effects of injuries as well, with Clint Capela's starting role now officially taken over by Onyeka Okongwu, who has seen a surge in minutes and is now a must-roster player.

Injuries are not limited to these teams, with the Chicago Bulls and Cleveland Cavaliers also experiencing player absences, leading to adjustments in their lineups for both short and long-term strategies. As teams navigate these challenges, the fantasy implications continue to evolve.
