Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee) won't play on Friday against Indiana. Oubre had 13 points, five boards, three steals, and one block in Wednesday's loss to Toronto. However, he won't be available on Friday, joining Andre Drummond (toe), Justin Edwards (ankle), Paul George (groin), Quentin Grimes (illness), Tyrese Maxey (back, finger), and Lonnie Walker IV (concussion) on the shelf. As a result, Philly will need to dig deep for production, with Jared Butler, Adem Bona, Jeff Dowtin Jr., Ricky Council IV, and Guerschon Yabusele on tap to see a sizable bump in scoring opportunities.

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. A minor knee issue will keep him sidelined for the second time this month. Brown's absence will increase the offensive opportunities for the rest of the starting lineup, while Payton Pritchard is expected to see more action in the rotation. The last time Brown was out of the lineup, Pritchard went for 19 points, six assists, and two steals in 32 minutes.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Alex Reese (shoulder) will play on Friday against the Pacers. He signed a two-way deal with Philadelphia at the end of February. Since then, the 25-year-old has appeared in just five games for the club, averaging 3.8 points and 3.6 rebounds. Reese was questionable for Friday's game because of a shoulder contusion. However, he's good to go. Under normal circumstances, the rookie's availability wouldn't mean much for fantasy managers. But with Lonnie Walker IV (concussion), Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee), Tyrese Maxey (back, finger), Quentin Grimes (illness), Paul George (groin), Andre Drummond (toe), and Justin Edwards (ankle) all ruled out, Reese is worth streaming in nearly all fantasy formats. He'll also draw value interest from DFS managers.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (knee) will play in Friday's contest against the Miami Heat. Tatum is dealing with right knee tendinopathy, but his status has been upgraded from questionable to available. With Jaylen Brown (knee) absent from the lineup on Friday, we could see something special from Tatum, who has increased his scoring output in games without Brown this season to 30.5 points. With Boston back in action on Saturday against the Brooklyn Nets, we might see Brown returning and Tatum sitting out, which would then boost Brown's offensive usage.

According to Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com, Los Angeles Lakers centerJaxson Hayes(knee) will be out against the Denver Nuggets on Friday. The 24-year-old will miss his fourth straight game in a row due to a bruised right knee. He's still dealing with swelling, so it's unknown when he will be healthy enough to return. However, his next chance to return is on Sunday against Phoenix. IfDorian Finney-Smith(ankle) and/orTrey Jemison(illness) are also sidelined, Alex Len will likely see an uptick in minutes. Unfortunately, Len won't factor in fantasy even with the extra playing time during tonight's contest, as he's only registered a total of two points and seven rebounds in his last five outings.

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) won't play on Friday against the Pacers. The 76ers are in trouble, with Justin Edwards (ankle), Paul George (groin), Quentin Grimes (illness), Tyrese Maxey (back, finger), Lonnie Walker IV (concussion), and Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee) also sidelined versus Indiana. With that in mind, fantasy managers can expect increased production from guys like Guerschon Yabusele, Ricky Council IV, Jeff Dowtin Jr., Jared Butler, and Adem Bona.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Quentin Grimes (illness) won't play on Friday against the Pacers. The 76ers have a lengthy injury report for Friday night, with Tyrese Maxey (back, finger), Lonnie Walker IV (concussion), and Paul George (groin) already ruled out. In addition, several others are listed as questionable, including Andre Drummond (toe), Justin Edwards (ankle), and Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee). With that in mind, if Drummond, Edwards, and Oubre are sidelined versus Indiana, Jared Butler, Guerschon Yabusele, Ricky Council IV, and Jeff Dowtin Jr. may be in store for a busy night.

Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam (elbow) will play on Friday versus Philly, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. The former Raptor was questionable heading into this contest because of right Olecranon bursitis. But he'll be out there. Siakam hasn't missed a game with the Pacers since being dealt by Toronto ahead of last season's trade deadline. He also remains one of Indiana's top performers, averaging 20.8 points and 7.2 rebounds while shooting a career-high 40.1% from downtown. With Philadelphia dealing with a multitude of injuries, Siakam could thrive for fantasy managers, although his presence should mean less work for Obi Toppin, who would have likely slid into the starting lineup.

Memphis Grizzlies forward/centerSanti Aldama(calf) will remain out for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 24-year-old has been dealing with a right calf strain. Friday's contest will be the sixth he's missed in the last seven due to the injury. Jaren Jackson Jr. (ankle) is questionable, so the Grizzlies could potentially have a light frontcourt this evening. Vince Williams,Brandon Clarke, GG Jackson, and Zach Edey will likely be relied upon to fill the void during tonight's matchup.

Philadelphia 76ers guardLonnie Walker IV (concussion) won't suit up against the Pacers on Friday. The 26-year-old picked up a concussion on Wednesday versus the Raptors. Walker signed a two-year, $3 million contract three weeks ago with the 76ers. With several Sixers players out with injuries, Walker played at least 25 minutes per contest in four of his last six outings. His next chance to get back in the lineup is Sunday versus Dallas. Unfortunately, Walker may miss more time as he must pass through the league's concussion protocols before returning to game action.

Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.comreports that Los Angeles Lakers point guardLuka Doncic(ankle) won't play against the Denver Nuggets on Friday. Due to left calf management and a right ankle sprain, Doncic will sit out the second half of back-to-back games. With Doncic sidelined and Gabe Vincent(knee) listed as doubtful, Jordan Goodwin and Shake Milton will likely receive extra minutes on the floor this evening. Still, neither player provides a solid fantasy option versus the Nuggets.

Utah Jazz guard Keyonte George (foot) has officially been ruled out for Friday's matchup with the Toronto Raptors due to a left foot contusion. This will be George's third consecutive game on the sidelines with this ailment. Since the Jazz are looking towards the NBA Draft lottery, they're likely going to play every injury on the cautious side. Collin Sexton and Isaiah Collier will lead the backcourt again while Cody Williams and Jordan Clarkson get the minutes off of the bench. Collier has been an excellent streaming option (rostered in 31% of leagues) with averages of 10.8 points, 8.1 assists, and 4.1 rebounds per game as a starter.

The Utah Jazz have announced that forward John Collins (ankle) has suffered a lateral ankle sprain in his left ankle and will be re-evaluated in two weeks. The 27-year-old has battled a multitude of injuries this season and appeared in 40 of a possible 66 games so far. The earliest he would be back is March 27 against the Houston Rockets, so Brice Sensabaugh and Kyle Filipowski will likely see a sizeable boost in minutes in the meantime. Both have been inconsistent, but could be used in short streaming spurts. Sensabaugh averages 9.9 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game while Filipowski has posted 8.3 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 1.9 assists.

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) appeared on the injury report for Friday's matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers but he's considered probable while he continues to deal with Achilles tendinitis. The superstar point guard remains a must-start in every fantasy format despite his shooting efficiency taking a big dip this year. He's currently leading the league in assists at 11.5 per contest while he sits at 18th in points per game with 24.0. His playmaking abilities have been the main attraction in March as he's averaging an astounding 12.8 per night through five games so far.

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Jaren Jackson Jr. (ankle) has a chance to return from a five-game absence after being listed as questionable for Friday's contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The former Defensive Player of the Year sprained his ankle on March 3 against the Atlanta Hawks and hasn't been able to take the court since then. If he's unable to suit up, Zach Edey and GG Jackson II should remain as the starting frontcourt. Brandon Clarke should also see some more opportunities off of the bench, but Edey provides the most stability with 9.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks per game.

Toronto Raptors center Jakob Poeltl (rest) will watch Friday's game against the Utah Jazz from the sidelines as he's been ruled out for rest. Both teams are competing for better odds in the NBA Draft lottery so they've decided to list almost everyone on the injury report. With Jonathan Mogbo (nasal) also ruled out, Orlando Robinson and Colin Castleton seem poised to take on the minutes at center. During their last game against the Philadelphia 76ers, Castleton got the starting nod and registered seven points, 14 rebounds, two assists, and three blocks. Robinson had a solid night as well with 25 points, 12 rebounds, and six assists. Both would be great streaming options for big man stats in category leagues.

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (personal) will miss Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers for family reasons. This will be the second consecutive missed game for the veteran big man and his next chance to play will come Sunday against the Brooklyn Nets. Mouhamed Gueye and Dominick Barlow should continue to receive some added minutes in Capela's absence. If fantasy managers are looking for big man streamers, Gueye started in the Hawks' last game and posted six points, three rebounds, one assist, two steals, and two blocks. He could be helpful to boost some stats in deep category leagues.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Ben Simmons (knee) has a chance to return from his seven-game absence to face the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. He's been out due to what the team is calling injury management on his left knee. Since being traded away from Brooklyn, Simmons has appeared in five games and averages 6.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 1.4 steals across 21.2 minutes per game. If he remains sidelined, however, Amir Coffey and Derrick Jones Jr. should still see the bulk of the bench minutes. Neither one is strongly recommended as streaming options except for very deep leagues.

Los Angeles Clippers guard Norman Powell (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's matchup with the Atlanta Hawks, which will be his seventh consecutive missed game since suffering a hamstring strain on March 2. Despite missing Powell, the Clippers have gone 4-2 over the last six games while Bogdan Bogdanovic and Amir Coffey both get bumps in playing time and opportunities. Bogdanovic is averaging 15.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 2.0 threes per game during that stretch while Coffey is posting 8.3 points, 1.3 rebounds, and 1.3 threes per contest.

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker has been with the team since they made him the 13th overall pick in the 2015 NBA Draft. Despite the rough season with three max-contract players, Booker seems to be cemented in the team's plans moving forward. Even in a down year, the 28-year-old is averaging 25.9 points, 6.8 assists, 4.1 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 2.7 threes per game. Owner Matt Ishbia made it clear that Booker is not on the trade block, even though the Suns are expected to make a major shakeup this offseason. Co-stars Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal have already had their names thrown into the rumor mill, and it seems like their moves away from Phoenix are all but inevitable. Ishbia is not a fan of rebuilds, so there could be a brand new supporting cast around Booker with other veterans if he gets his wish.
