Squirrel’s Nuts & Bolts NBA - December 2nd, 2025
Tuesday sees a five-game slate on both FanDuel and DraftKings, as both sites have removed the last game of the night (OKC/GSW). Despite the small size of the slate, we have a large injury list that impacts every game. Andre Drummond, Paul George, Quentin Grimes, Kyshawn George, Donovan Clingan, Jock Landale, Yves Missi, and Zion Williamson are Questionable, while Alex Sarr, Joel Embiid, Khris Middleton, Jrue Holiday, RJ Barrett, Ja Morant, Jordan Poole, and O.G. Anunoby are all either Doubtful or out. Thankfully, the sequence of games should allow straightforward late-swap options, with just one game locking at 7 PM ET (WAS/PHI), another game locking at 7:30 PM ET (POR/TOR), and the last three games all locking at 8 PM ET (MEM/SAS, MIN/NOR, NYK/BOS).
This is becoming a standard caveat for this article, but with so many Questionable players, it will be absolutely critical to pay attention to the injury news and starting lineups. Even minor injuries can disrupt the slate when a minimum-priced player gets surprisingly elevated into the starting lineup, so with late swap, it’s essential to monitor the starting lineups on a slate this large with so many injury situations.
