Week 5 in the NBA features a unique schedule with more teams playing three games compared to four, and four teams only playing two games. This week, injuries and rotation changes are creating opportunities for fantasy players.
Highlighted start candidates include Jared McCain from the Philadelphia 76ers and Kris Dunn from the Los Angeles Clippers, both of whom have shown promising performances. Conversely, players like Terry Rozier of the Miami Heat and Jimmy Butler, also from the Heat, are advised to be benched due to poor form and limited game opportunities.
Centers Bobby Portis from the Milwaukee Bucks and Moritz Wagner from the Orlando Magic are also recommended starts, while Jusuf Nurkic of the Phoenix Suns should be avoided as he struggles with performance and limited playtime.
