Impact Vanzeir is working his way back to healthy following his hamstring injury. He was able to record an assist against Houston, making two starts at forward to open up the campaign.

MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable against Dallas Vanzeir (hamstring) is questionable for Saturday's clash with Dallas.

SEPTEMBER 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Makes bench Wednesday Vanzeir (hamstring) is on the bench for Wednesday's game against New England.
