Squirrel’s Nuts & Bolts NBA - January 6th, 2026
Tuesday night brings six games on the NBA schedule, but only five games on the main DFS slate as both FanDuel and DraftKings have removed the 11 PM ET game (DAL/SAC). There isn’t a ton of injury news, but the Questionable tags are impactful, with both Victor Wembanyama and Anthony Edwards listed as Questionable. Jalon Tyson and Herb Jones are also drawing Questionable designations, while Bennedict Mathurin, Donovan Mitchell, Jalen Suggs, Cedric Coward, and Jaime Jaquez are all out, and Ja Morant is Doubtful.
This is becoming a standard caveat for this article, but with so many injury situations, 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.
