2024-25 Fantasy Basketball Week 11 Schedule Breakdown

[ad_1]

Week 11’s schedule will be fun for fantasy managers, as every day has between seven and nine games on the slate. Monday and Sunday (nine games) will be the busiest days of Week 11, with seven games being played on Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday (eight on Wednesday and Thursday). From an availability standpoint, injuries to Luka Doncic, Jalen Suggs, Jaden Ivey, and Kawhi Leonard will have an impact, as will Jimmy Butler’s seven-game suspension in Miami.
