New this season, ESPN Analytics will also generate daily NBA fantasy projections. By combining historical player and team data and specific game factors ESPN is able to accurately predict player box score stats. Accounting for injuries, trends in playing time, and other factors impacting future performance the statistical models can be used to help NBA fantasy players gain an edge in their league.

Now that the in-season tournament schedule is set it's time to focus on regular-season hoops again on Wednesday.

We're looking at a seven-game schedule featuring the Phoenix Suns at Toronto Raptors, the Philadelphia 76ers at New Orleans Pelicans, the Houston Rockets at Denver Nuggets and the LA Clippers at Sacramento Kings.

The Rockets were eliminated from the in-season tournament after falling to the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday and there are plenty of injury implications to look at.

This segment nominates three key streaming options ahead of that day's action. A streamer, by our standards, is a player available in at least half of ESPN men's basketball leagues.
