Only three games Thursday as the league heads into the All-Star break. With very little to choose from, I take a look at all six teams in action, with a couple of potential streaming options on such a low-volume day. E’Twaun Moore returned Tuesday, scoring 19 points in 26 minutes and is one player to consider if you need a boost heading into the break.

Players to stream
- Damyean Dotson
- Terrance Ferguson
- E’Twaun Moore
- Darius Miller
Charlotte Hornets @ Orlando Magic
Hornets
- Miles Bridges (35%) – Drop
- Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (22%) – Drop
- Tony Parker (16%) – Drop
- Shelvin Mack (14%) – Drop
- Bismack Biyombo (11%) – Drop
Magic
- Jerian Grant (18%) – Drop
- Khem Birch (10%) – Drop
- Isaiah Briscoe (9%) – Watch: Briscoe appears to have secured the backup point guard minutes but is really only worth considering if you need assists.
- Wes Iwundu (8%) – Drop: Iwundu has played better over the past two games, flashing his defensive upside along the way. That being said, he is not in the standard league conversation and appears a long way from there right now.
New York Knicks @ Atlanta Hawks
Knicks
- Allonzo Trier (30%) – Drop
- Damyean Dotson (23%) – Stream: Dotson had one of his patented random high-scoring games Wednesday. His numbers and playing time have both been incredibly inconsistent of late but he is worth a look if you need points on what is a low-volume day Thursday.
- Luke Kornet (16%) – Drop
Hawks
- Alex Len (45%) – Drop: Len has scored in double-digits in back-to-back games but there is really nothing to see here.
- DeAndre Bembry (32%) – Watch
- Omari Spellman (19%) – Watch
- Jaylen Adams (6%) – Watch: Adams is questionable once again heading into Thursday but is still someone to watch in deeper formats. His two-way contract has been converted into a standard deal, indicating he will be the primary backup behind Trae Young once he does return.
Oklahoma City Thunder @ New Orleans Pelicans
Thunder
- Nerlens Noel (37%) – Drop
- Terrance Ferguson (19%) – Stream: Ferguson was basically invisible in his last game but the playing time was still there. He appears locked in as the starter moving forward and despite predictable inconsistencies, should be viewed as a solid enough streaming option.
- Patrick Patterson (8%) – Drop
Pelicans
- E’Twaun Moore (44%) – Stream: Moore returned to the starting lineup Tuesday, ending with 19 points including three triples. There are only three games Thursday and so Moore is worth a look if you need points and threes.
- Stanley Johnson (25%) – Drop
- Darius Miller (18%) – Stream: The return of E’Twaun Moore is going to dampen Millers’ upside but he could still be streamed in for his three-point shooting on what is a low volume Wednesday.
- Frank Jackson (15%) – Watch
- Tim Frazier (15%) – Watch: Elfrid Payton is questionable heading into Thursday, posing a serious question mark around Frazier’s value. If Payton is forced to miss another game, Frazier could be worth considering if you need assists.
- Cheick Diallo (14%) – Drop
