Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (knee) will miss the team's upcoming three-game road trip, P.J. Ziegler of FOX 8 reports. Due to right knee tendonitis, he will sit out a sixth consecutive game on Tuesday night against the Milwaukee Bucks. In Allen's absence, Thomas Bryant's workload has slightly increased, while Keon Ellis has made back-to-back starts. After impressing in his season debut on Sunday against Dallas, Max Strus is also a candidate to see some action in the starting unit until Allen returns.

Los Angeles Clippers forward/center John Collins will be a starter in Monday's contest against the San Antonio Spurs. Law Murray of The Athletic reports. He will replace Kawhi Leonard (ankle), who was injured in Saturday's loss to Sacramento. Collins has also faced health issues lately, returning from a seven-game absence on Saturday. He was a regular starter before exiting the lineup and has posted 13.9 points and 5.2 rebounds per game as a member of the first unit. Leonard's absence is also likely to increase the offensive usage of Darius Garland and Bennedict Mathurin.

Washington Wizards point guard Trae Young (quadriceps) has been ruled out for the rest of Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He will miss the final quarter due to a right quadriceps contusion. Young sustained the injury in the third quarter after colliding with Warriors guard Will Richard. During the closing moments, Washington's backcourt will also be without Bub Carrington, who was ejected after receiving two technical fouls. Sharife Cooper and Tre Johnson will take on larger roles. Before leaving early, Young amassed 21 points, two rebounds, five assists, one steal, and one block in 21 minutes. The Wizards will likely head into Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons without Young.

Sacramento Kings guard Russell Westbrook (foot) is off the injury report and available for Tuesday's game against the Spurs after sitting out Sunday. The veteran has averaged 17.2 points, 6.8 rebounds, 9.6 assists, and 2.2 steals over his last five games and remains a strong fantasy hold for managers needing assists and steals. His return should push Killian Hayes back into a smaller reserve role, while Malik Monk (ankle) could see slightly less ballhandling if active. Westbrook should continue seeing steady usage alongside DeMar DeRozan in the starting unit.

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (calf) carries a questionable tag on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's clash against the Charlotte Hornets. He is experiencing tightness in his right calf, and Adebayo might miss his first game of 2026 as a result. Without Adebayo, Kel'el Ware would have a much bigger role in the frontcourt, while Myron Gardner or Simone Fontecchio could get a chance to start. On the offensive side, Norman Powell and Tyler Herro would handle a larger load.

Houston Rockets forward/center Alperen Sengun (back) is out for Monday's game against the Lakers, with veteran center Clint Capela moving into the starting lineup. Capela finished with nine points, five rebounds, two assists, one steal, and four blocks in 22 minutes off the bench in his last game and shapes up as a short-term rebounds and blocks streamer. Amen Thompson and Kevin Durant could also see slight usage increases with Sengun's 27.1 percent usage rate unavailable. Capela is better viewed as a short-term category streamer, while Sengun remains a clear hold once healthy.

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center GG Jackson II (foot) is out for Monday's game against the Bulls, with guard Rayan Rupert moving into the starting lineup. Rupert logged 13 points, seven rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 38 minutes in his previous appearance and profiles as a deep-league streaming option if he sees a similar run. Taylor Hendricks posted seven points, five rebounds, two steals, and two blocks in 30 minutes last game and should remain in the rotation, while Olivier-Maxence Prosper could continue seeing usage after a 17-point outing.

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's showdown against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The former MVP injured his left ankle last week, causing him to miss one game. He returned to play on Sunday against Indiana and nearly posted a 30-point triple-double, but Antetokounmpo only logged 23 minutes. If he shakes off the questionable tag, Antetokounmpo might see limited minutes again. Meanwhile, Bobby Portis and Jericho Sims will have bigger roles if he doesn't suit up at all, especially with Myles Turner (calf) also uncertain for the game.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Javon Small is inactive for Monday's game against the Bulls, while rookie guard Walter Clayton Jr. (ankle) returns to the starting lineup. Clayton recorded 14 assists in 34 minutes in his last start and could offer deep-league value for assists if his minutes hold. Small had averaged 15.0 points, 5.0 assists, and 1.4 steals across his last five NBA appearances but remains off the fantasy radar while inactive. Cam Spencer and Rayan Rupert could also pick up extra backcourt minutes, though both are risky streaming options due to uncertain roles.

Chicago Bulls center Nick Richards (back) will be active against the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday. He initially had a small question mark hanging over him due to a probable designation. Richards has performed well recently, averaging nearly a double-double this month, with 11.0 points and 9.1 rebounds per game. However, the Bulls' frontcourt is looking a bit crowded, with Jalen Smith and Guerschon Yabusele also part of the rotation at center, which could disrupt Richards' recent good momentum.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards (knee) won't play on Tuesday against the Phoenix Suns. He will sit out the game with a sore right knee. It's an issue that has troubled Edwards for some time. So far, he has played through the injury, but his recent performances have been very inconsistent. Due to Edwards' absence, Ayo Dosunmu and Bones Hyland will move up the depth chart, with one of them likely starting. There will also be additional offensive duties for Julius Randle, Donte DiVincenzo, and Jaden McDaniels.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (illness) will not play in Monday's matchup against Dallas, opening short-term minutes in the backcourt. Rookie guard Jeremiah Fears could move into a larger role after scoring nine points with three three-pointers in 13 minutes off the bench in his last outing, though he remains a risky deep-league streamer due to uncertain minutes. Trey Murphy III and Zion Williamson may take on more playmaking responsibilities. This situation appears temporary, making Fears a speculative add while the starters remain the safest fantasy plays.

Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford (illness) won't be in the lineup for Monday's tilt against the New Orleans Pelicans. He has been downgraded from doubtful to out due to illness, keeping Gafford sidelined for a second straight game. With Gafford out, P.J. Washington had a big game in the frontcourt against Cleveland on Sunday. Meanwhile, Marvin Bagley III has a clearer route to playing time, but he was only on the court for 16 minutes in Sunday's matchup. Gafford's next chance to return will be Wednesday against the Atlanta Hawks.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ty Jerome (shoulder) will sit out Monday's contest against the Chicago Bulls. His status has been downgraded from doubtful to out ahead of tip-off. Jerome has posted three straight 20-point outings, but he hasn't taken the floor in two consecutive games for over a month. With Javon Small inactive on Monday, the Grizzlies' backcourt will rely on Cam Spencer, Cedric Coward, Walter Clayton Jr., and Jahmai Mashack. Out of the quartet, Spencer has been the most consistent performer in recent weeks, averaging 11.6 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 5.0 assists this month.

Portland Trail Blazers center Robert Williams III (knee) won't suit up on Monday against the Brooklyn Nets. Initially, there was a chance Williams III would play in the second leg of a back-to-back when he was listed as questionable, but the team has now ruled him out. Williams III had six points, 12 rebounds, and three blocks across 20 minutes in Sunday's loss to Philadelphia. With Williams III unavailable, starting center Donovan Clingan could take on a larger workload, and we might also see more of Sidy Cissoko in Monday's game.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Vit Krejci (calf) will exit the lineup on Monday against the Brooklyn Nets. He was listed as doubtful on the initial injury report, and Krejci hasn't recovered enough from a calf contusion to play. Since moving to Portland, Krejci has averaged 7.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 19.9 minutes per game. In his absence, Kris Murray could return to the rotation on Monday night, while Scoot Henderson and Matisse Thybulle may also pick up some of the available minutes.

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (rest) will miss Monday's matchup with the New Orleans Pelicans. The 36-year-old veteran forward is out for tonight's contest for rest purposes. He was also out of action during Sunday's 130-120 win over the Cavs. His next chance to return to the floor is on Wednesday at home versus the Hawks. With Thompson sidelined, fantasy managers can look to 34-year-old sharpshooter Khris Middleton as a potential streaming option as he should continue to see extra minutes this evening.

The Chicago Bulls announced on Monday that guard Anfernee Simons (wrist) recently underwent further evaluation of his left wrist. Simons is making progress and will be re-evaluated in 10 days. He sustained a left wrist fracture on Feburary 24. The earliest date Simons could now return is March 27 against OKC. Jaden Ivey (knee) will also continue to miss time and will be re-evaluated in a week. Extra backcourt minutes should continue to be available for Tre Jones, Collin Sexton, and Rob Dillingham while Simons and Ivey are out of action.

The Chicago Bulls announced on Monday that guard Jaden Ivey (knee) continues to make progress in his recovery from left knee soreness and will be re-evaluated in one week. The 24-year-old has been sidelined since the All-Star break, missing 11 consecutive games. With Ivey expected to miss at least three more contests and Anfernee Simons (wrist) also sidelined, Tre Jones should remain a solid streaming option for fantasy managers. The 26-year-old guard has scored at least 20 points in three of his last five appearances.

Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official reports that Atlanta Hawks forward Jonathan Kuminga (knee) will play against the Orlando Magic on Monday. Kuminga was previously listed as questionable due to a knee issue, but he has since been cleared to play. The injury kept him out of four of the previous five games. Besides health issues, moving to Atlanta has worked out for the 23-year-old forward, as he's averaged 16.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 1.3 steals in 24.8 minutes per contest across four appearances.
