The Nets will be without two of their best players for Wednesday’s matchup vs. the Rockets. Durant and Aldridge will rest on the second leg of a back-to-back, which makes the Nets slightly vulnerable against a suddenly red-hot Rockets squad. They’ve won six-straight games, and the Nets are currently listed as three-point road favorites on FanDuel Sportsbook.

With Durant and Aldridge out, Paul Millsap and Bruce Brown are the leading candidates to move into the starting lineup. Both players could provide some fantasy value, but James Harden figures to be the biggest beneficiary.
