Hawks plan to keep Lou Williams in bench role

The Hawks plan to bring Lou Williams off the bench once he returns from ACL surgery next season, according to USA Today's Lang Greene.

Jeff Teague will reprise his starting PG role next year, and Williams' sixth-man status is an acknowledgement that he's not big enough (6'1", 175 lbs) to defend the league's starting SGs. The market for free agent SGs has quickly dried up (Nate Robinson, Alan Anderson, Damien Wilkins and Sam Young are among the best remaining), and at the moment it seems as though John Jenkins or Jared Cunningham could be candidates for Atlanta's starting SG job.

DeAndre Jordan to start, won't play much

DeAndre Jordan is expected to start to keep his games played streak alive, but isn't expected to play a lot of minutes.

If you can still sub him out, it's probably a good idea.

Rudy Gay, Isaiah Thomas will play on Wed.

Rudy Gay (back) and Isaiah Thomas (quad) will play on Wednesday night.

This is a bit of a surprise and Gay's back must be feeling good. He missed Sunday's game and should be busy tonight with DeMarcus Cousins (suspension) out. Derrick Williams could still get some run at power forward tonight and is a possible fantasy option.

LaMarcus Aldridge, Mo Williams out Wednesday

LaMarcus Aldridge and Mo Williams will rest for Wednesday's game vs. the Clippers.

The Blazers certainly don't want to put Aldridge in harm's way and will keep him out in preparation for a first-round series vs. the Rockets. With Aldridge out, expect to see some of Dorell Wright, Thomas Robinson and Joel Freeman.

MCW, Thadd Young starting for 76ers

Michael Carter-Williams, James Anderson, Adonis Thomas, Thaddeus Young and Henry Sims are starting for the Sixers on tank day.

MCW will hopefully go out with a bang, while Young might be playing his last game as a Sixer. And Sims could have another solid line tonight, while this will be one of the first times we'll get a long look at Thomas.

Dwyane Wade in starting lineup vs. Philly

Dwyane Wade will start next to Toney Douglas, James Jones, Shane Battier and Udonis Haslem on Wednesday vs. the Sixers.

Wade is expected to see a nominal amount of minutes, but it's still a great sign for the Heat to even see him suit up. He had to play through injuries last postseason and chances are he will have to again.

Enes Kanter out with sore knee

Enes Kanter will miss Wednesday's finale with a sore knee.

Here's a late benching we didn't see coming, and of course, news broke right at 7 p.m., making it nearly impossible to get him replaced in lineups. Kanter had a nice season, but it would have been a lot better had he not been stuck on the bench behind the likes of Marvin Williams. Next season should be a different story. Erik Murphy is available for the Jazz tonight.

Luis Scola, Roy Hibbert starting for Pacers

Luis Scola will join George Hill, Evan Turner, Rasual Butler and Roy Hibbert in the starting five for the Pacers tonight.

Scola and Turner look like decent fantasy plays tonight, but we'd stay away from the rest of them.

Thornton in odd starting lineup for Nets

Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett are out for the Nets on Wednesday, while they'll use a makeshift starting lineup of Marquis Teague, Jorge Gutierrez, Marcus Thornton, Jason Collins and Andray Blatche.

Mysteriously absent from that list is Mason Plumlee, who has been playing well, although he could still come off the bench. Deron Williams is also out, while Alan Anderson could play a few minutes. And if you're still trying to figure out who Gutierrez is, you're not alone.

Korver starting, starters to see fewer mins.

Kyle Korver, Jeff Teague, DeMarre Carroll, Mike Scott and Pero Antic will start against the Bucks on Wednesday.

The starters will likely have some limited minutes tonight, so fantasy owners might want to watch out for guys like Jeff Teague, DeMarre Carroll and Kyle Korver. Mike Scott should still be solid and could have a nice line.

Tim Duncan, Marco Belinelli out for Spurs

Tim Duncan and Marco Belinelli are out for the Spurs on Wednesday.

The kicker is that Gregg Popovich says he has no idea who he's going to start tonight. Stay tuned.

Westbrook, Durant starting, OKC trying to win

The Thunder will start their normal crew in Wednesday's finale and are trying to beat the Pistons to secure the No. 2 seed in the West.

This should mean that Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant and Serge Ibaka all play pretty normal minutes. However, if the Thunder get up big anytime after halftime, it could be bench city for all of them. Additionally, Brooks said that once the playoffs start, any minutes restrictions that Westbrook has been under will be lifted.
