Squirrel’s Nuts & Bolts NBA - February 12th, 2026
The NBA heads into the All-Star Break with three games on Thursday night, with the main slate on FanDuel and DraftKings tipping off at 7:30 PM ET. Despite the small size of the slate, injury news continues to make an impact. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Isaiah Hartenstein, Ajay Mitchell, Jalen Williams, Shaedon Sharpe, Keyonte George, Lauri Markkanen, Cooper Flagg, Deandre Ayton, and Luka Doncic are all out, while Moussa Cisse and Ryan Nembard are listed as Doubtful. Kyle Kuzma, Ryan Rollins, Deni Avdija, Robert Williams, Naji Marshall, and Caleb Martin are all Questionable.
This is a standard caveat for this article, but with so many injury situations, it will be 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.
