Week 11 of fantasy basketball is set to see some key players making their return from suspensions and injuries. Naji Marshall is back with the Dallas Mavericks after a four-game suspension, and with Luka Doncic's calf strain, he may be a decent pick in deeper leagues. Jusuf Nurkic of the Phoenix Suns will also return from suspension, although Mason Plumlee is expected to retain his starting position despite Nurkic's superior fantasy value this season.
The Los Angeles Clippers welcomed Kawhi Leonard back as he made his season debut, albeit on a restricted 20-minute limit, impacting the roster dynamics. The decision over who starts between Kris Dunn and Derrick Jones Jr. will depend on specific matchups, making it a fluid situation for the Clippers.
In Atlanta, Jalen Johnson and Bogdan Bogdanovic sat out a recent game due to injuries but are expected back for the upcoming week. Meanwhile, De’Aaron Fox's recent injury has opened opportunities for Malik Monk and Keon Ellis in the Sacramento Kings' backcourt, with Monk emerging as a potential add in standard leagues.
Utah Jazz also faced lineup adjustments with John Collins, Lauri Markkanen, and Keyonte George sitting out due to various reasons. Despite missing these key players, the Jazz managed a successful Florida trip, indicating depth within their roster.
