The NBA schedule for Sunday, Jan. 11, 2026, features 10 games that fantasy managers, DFS players and bettors will need to navigate. Injuries, potential returns and several close point spreads headline the day.
Key story lines
Injury returns: The Portland Trail Blazers expect Jrue Holiday to play against the New York Knicks after missing 27 games with a calf injury, and the Knicks plan to re-insert Josh Hart following an ankle issue. In Toronto, Scottie Barnes is listed as probable versus the Philadelphia 76ers after a brief knee absence.
Competitive slate: Only two of the 10 contests carry double-digit spreads, limiting blowout risk and improving minutes stability for fantasy purposes.
Top fantasy streamers
Peyton Watson, SF/PF, Denver Nuggets (39.4 % rostered) – At least 21 points in five straight games as Denver hosts Milwaukee.
Cam Spencer, SG/PG, Memphis Grizzlies (25.0 %) – Primary creator in Ja Morant’s absence, draws Brooklyn’s backcourt.
Keldon Johnson, SF/PF, San Antonio Spurs (19.6 %) – Coming off a double-double versus Boston and should see extra usage with Devin Vassell out against Minnesota.
Julian Champagnie, SF, Spurs (14.2 %) – Averaging a 15-point double-double over the past week while San Antonio’s rotation remains thin.
Notable prop bets
DeMar DeRozan OVER 6.5 assists + rebounds – Sacramento continues to rely on the veteran’s playmaking while Domantas Sabonis is sidelined.
CJ McCollum OVER 16.5 points + assists – Debuts for Atlanta against Golden State after logging nearly 40 minutes in his final game with Washington.
