The 22-year-old will likely not have any restrictions placed on him during the contest and could be a solid fantasy option as he's averaging 20.0 points per game.

Daniel Gafford Unavailable For Dallas On Tuesday
The Mavs PR X account announced that Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford (ankle) is unavailable for Tuesday's matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. Gafford suffered a sprained ankle on Monday versus Memphis. If the 26-year-old is out for a while, Dallas will miss his aggressiveness in the paint. Gafford has averaged 11.7 points, six rebounds, 1.1 assists, and 1.4 blocks across 25 games this season. In the meantime, expect Maxi Kleber, Dereck Lively, and Dwight Powell to see an uptick in minutes on the court.

According to Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com, Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cam Reddish (back) is unavailable for Tuesday's matchup with the Dallas Mavericks. Reddish is dealing with lower back soreness and will be out of the lineup for the first time since December 1st. While he is missing in action, Dalton Knecht and Dorian Finney-Smith will likely take extra minutes to get off the bench. The 25-year-old's next chance to suit up will be on Thursday against the Hornets.

Tyler Herro Questionable On Tuesday
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Golden State Warriors. Herro may sit out due to a left knee contusion. He was on the floor for a significant amount of time on Monday, playing 49 minutes in an overtime loss to Sacramento. If the 24-year-old cannot go, it will be a massive loss for the Heat, with Jimmy Butler (suspension) already missing in action as he continues to serve his suspension. Fantasy managers should expect Terry Rozier, Duncan Robinson and Jaime Jaquez to take on extra minutes.

Jaime Jaquez, Terry Rozier, and Duncan Robinson will continue to see a significant amount of extra minutes since Tyler Herro (knee) is questionable and could be out of the rotation. Jimmy Butler (suspension) will also be missing in action as he continues to serve his suspension.

Alex Caruso Ruled Out For Wednesday
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Alex Caruso (hip) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers. Caruso is set to miss his eighth game in a row due to a lingering hip issue. His next opportunity to suit up will come on Friday versus the Knicks. Luguentz Dort and Cason Wallace figure to continue seeing increased roles in the rotation during the 30-year-olds absence. Dort is the slightly better fantasy option than Wallace, but both players are low-end streaming options while Caruso is sidelined.

Gabe Vincent Upgraded To Probable Versus Dallas
According to Jovan Buha of The Athletic, Los Angeles Lakers guard Gabe Vincent (oblique) will likely play against the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday. Vincent was previously listed as questionable, but he's since been upgraded to probable. The 28-year-old had previously missed four games in a row due to an oblique injury. He's struggled this season, shooting 33.0 percent from three-point range, and if available this evening, Vincent won't make much of an impact in fantasy.

Kyle Lowry Will Not Play Wednesday Against Washington
Philadelphia 76ers guard Kyle Lowry (hip) will miss a second straight game on Wednesday after being listed out along with Joel Embiid (foot) and Paul George (groin). Without two of their three superstars, the Sixers will have to lean heavily on Tyrese Maxey. Lowry won't be available to work with Maxey in the backcourt, leaving Reggie Jackson, Eric Gordon, and Jeff Dowtin as the main guard depth options available. Maxey played 44 minutes with Lowry out on Monday, finishing with an impressive stat line of 31 points, 10 assists, and two steals. With limited options once again on Wednesday, he's likely to be very busy in a favorable matchup against the Wizards.

Cam Reddish Likely Unavailable Tuesday
Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports that Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cam Reddish (back) has been downgraded to doubtful for Tuesday's matchup with the Dallas Mavericks. Reddish was listed as questionable early in the day, but it appears he will likely not suit up. If it turns out the 25-year-old is unable to play, Dorian Finney-Smith and Dalton Knecht will take on extra minutes on Tuesday.

Paul George Ruled Out For Wednesday
Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George has played in 14 straight games, but that streak will come to an end on Wednesday against the Wizards since he was listed as out due to left groin tightness. George played 38 minutes on Monday in the Sixers' loss to the Suns and finished with 13 points, nine rebounds, and five steals. He and Joel Embiid (foot) will both be sidelined, leaving plenty of work for Tyrese Maxey in a smash spot against the Wizards. When George missed time earlier this season, Kelly Oubre and Caleb Martin were more involved, but both were already in the starting five on Monday. Eric Gordon and Ricky Council IV could get more work in George's place on Wednesday, but Maxey will have to step in and carry most of the offense, which he has proven he can do regularly so far this season.

Andre Drummond Listed As Questionable For Wednesday
Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) could be returning to a big role on Wednesday against the Wizards since fellow center Joel Embiid (foot) was listed as out. Drummond has started 14 games this season, averaging 8.1 points, 10.1 rebounds, and 24.2 minutes in those contests. He'll be an interesting option for DFS and streaming if he does get the start in place of Embiid, but if he misses another game with his sprained toe, Guerschon Yabusele could be set for a second straight start. On Monday in the Sixers' 10-point loss, Yabusele played 36 minutes with Drummond and Embiid both out and racked up 14 points and 10 rebounds. The Wizards have been a very favorable matchup for centers, so either Drummond or Yabusele will have a good ceiling on Wednesday.

Zion Williamson Set To Return On Tuesday Versus Minnesota
The New Orleans Pelicans announced forward Zion Williamson (hamstring) will return against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday. After recovering from a hamstring strain, Williamson will see his first action since Nov. 6. He looked good during the early parts of the season before getting injured, registering 22.7 points, 8.0 rebounds, 5.3 assists, and 1.2 blocks in six contests. Fantasy managers should expect the 24-year-old to see limited minutes initially since he's been out for over two months.

Joel Embiid Listed As Out For Wednesday's Game Against Washington
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) will miss a second straight game on Wednesday after he was listed on the team's injury report as out for the home game against the Wizards due to a left-foot sprain. Embiid has been limited to only 13 games this season but has played in nine of the team's last 13 contests. He had back-to-back 28-point double-doubles in his last two games but sat out the team's 109-99 loss to the Suns on Monday. Andre Drummond (toe) also missed Monday's game, and Guerschon Yabusele got the start and had 14 points, 10 rebounds, a block, and an assist while playing 36 minutes. Yabusele could be lined up for a big role once again if Drummond is also out, but the big man was initially listed as questionable. With Paul George (groin) joining Embiid on the sideline, most of the Sixers' offense will have to come from Tyrese Maxey in a very favorable matchup against the Wizards.

Brandin Podziemski Will Not Play Tuesday
Golden State Warriors guard Brandin Podziemski (abdomen) will miss a fifth straight game on Tuesday night when the Warriors host the Heat. Podziemski had played 30 of 31 games before his current issue and was averaging 9.1 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 25.3 minutes per game in his 11 games before leaving early with an injury against the Suns on December 28. While Podziemski is out, there will continue to be extra work for Moses Moody and Buddy Hield. The Warriors next game and Podziemski's next chance to return will be Thursday against the Pistons.

Trey Murphy III Out On Tuesday
New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Trey Murphy III (ankle) will not suit up for Tuesday's contest against Minnesota. He injured his left ankle on Sunday against Washington and will sit out at least one game. However, Murphy III is expected to make a quick return, as the team considers him day-to-day. Brandon Boston Jr. and Jordan Hawkins might play larger roles in the rotation with Murphy III out, although this will depend on Zion Williamson's (hamstring) status. The high-flying star is on track to return to action this week and has been listed as questionable for Tuesday's game.

Dejounte Murray Listed As Questionable For Tuesday
New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (elbow) is questionable to face Minnesota on Tuesday. He has injured his right elbow. However, the injury didn't keep Murray from posting his first triple-double of the season in Sunday's matchup against Washington, so there should be a good chance he will remain in the lineup. Jose Alvarado and Brandon Boston Jr. will be in line to receive additional work if Murray can't play against the Timberwolves. Both players have had strong outings in 2024-25 but haven't performed consistently, making them risky options for fantasy managers.

Zion Williamson Might Be Back In Action Tuesday
New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (hamstring) has been listed as questionable for Tuesday's meeting with Minnesota. After recovering from a hamstring strain, Williamson could see his first action since Nov. 6. Williamson looked good during the early parts of the season before getting hurt. He posted 22.7 points, 8.0 rebounds, 5.3 assists, and 1.2 blocks across six games. Considering he's been out for two months, it seems almost certain that Williamson will only be given limited work initially, so fantasy managers should temper their expectations for the first few games.

Bogdan Bogdanovic Considered Probable Tuesday
Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (lower leg) will likely return to action against Utah on Tuesday, as the team has listed him as probable on the injury report. Having recently returned from a lower leg injury, Bogdanovic sat out the second leg of a back-to-back on Saturday against the Clippers. With Bogdanovic's return, Garrison Mathews and Vit Krejci will lose fantasy appeal, although neither player has offered consistent fantasy value. The Hawks face an excellent fantasy matchup on Tuesday, as the Jazz have the league's worst defensive rating (118.3).
10 hours ago
Trae Young Probable For Tuesday's Game
Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (Achilles) is probable for Tuesday's contest against Utah. An Achilles issue has accompanied him throughout the season, but it doesn't appear to be serious, as Young has sat out for just two games. He has also shaken off a hand contusion, which gave Young a questionable designation ahead of Saturday's game against the Clippers. It's been a big campaign for Young, who averages 22.5 points and 12.0 assists with 1.3 steals. He is in a smash spot against the Jazz, who allow the second-most fantasy points in the league to opposing point guards.
