Bradley Beal is questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Knicks due to a left hamstring strain. Corey Kispert should continue to start for as long as Beal is sidelined, and guys like Rui Hachimura and Will Barton should see some additional run off the bench. We'll make sure to keep a close eye on Beal's status ahead of Wednesday's clash with New York.

Julius Randle accumulated 21 points (7-of-20 FGs, 6-of-9 FTs), 15 rebounds, eight assists, one steal, and one 3-pointer in Monday's 123-121 overtime loss to the Raptors. Randle has grabbed 15 rebounds or more in five straight games, and his double-double streak has reached 11. The latter is the second-longest current streak in the NBA, trailing Domantas Sabonis (20). Randle is one of three Knicks providing 5th-round value in 9-cat formats, with Mitchell Robinson and Jalen Brunson being the others. Randle and the Knicks will look to bounce back from Monday's defeat Wednesday night when they host the Wizards.
