Stephon Castle Iffy for Monday

San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle (hip) is questionable for Monday's game against Miami after missing the last two contests due to soreness. If the rookie guard remains out, Dylan Harper could continue seeing expanded minutes after delivering 24 points, one three-pointer, four rebounds, and three assists in 28 minutes during his last start. Harper could be worth a short-term stream for points and guard stats if Castle sits. With Devin Vassell (hamstring) also questionable, Harper may have a clearer path to steady minutes next to De'Aaron Fox in the backcourt.

Bennedict Mathurin Remains Out Monday

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Bennedict Mathurin (toe) will remain out for Monday's game against Milwaukee, extending his absence to four straight contests. His continued absence has opened steady rotation minutes on the wing. Kris Dunn logged five assists, two steals, and two blocks in 32 minutes off the bench in his last outing and remains a defensive streaming option in deeper formats. Jordan Miller also chipped in 10 points in 22 minutes and could continue seeing reserve minutes. Mathurin should still be viewed as questionable for Wednesday against Toronto.

Isaiah Collier Still Sidelined Monday

Utah Jazz guard Isaiah Collier (hamstring) will miss another game Monday against Toronto, marking his third straight absence due to injury management. With Keyonte George (hamstring) also sidelined, Utah has leaned heavily on Kennedy Chandler and Bez Mbeng to handle point guard duties. Mbeng logged 13 points, six rebounds, and seven assists in 45 minutes in his last start, while Chandler added 19 points, five rebounds, and four assists in 37 minutes off the bench. Both guards are worth a look in deeper leagues while Collier remains out.

Kyle Kuzma Iffy for Monday Vs. Clippers

Milwaukee Bucks forward Kyle Kuzma (Achilles) is questionable for Monday's game against the Clippers after exiting Saturday's win over Phoenix with soreness. His absence would likely open more minutes in the frontcourt rotation. Ousmane Dieng could remain in a sizable role after posting 11 points, one three-pointer, two rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 33 minutes as a starter. Bobby Portis, now off the injury report, is also positioned for a larger workload and offers streaming appeal after recording 11 points, six rebounds, and two steals in 24 minutes in a recent game.

Pascal Siakam • PF • Pacers

Pascal Siakam May Miss Monday's Game Vs. Orlando

Indiana Pacers forward/center Pascal Siakam (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against Orlando after returning Saturday from a six-game absence and logging 14 points, five assists, two rebounds, and one steal in 29 minutes. Managers should monitor his status closely after the quick turnaround. Jarace Walker would remain the main beneficiary if Siakam sits after producing 21 points, five three-pointers, four rebounds, and four assists in 35 minutes in his last start. Kobe Brown could pick up a few extra minutes and is on the radar in deeper leagues, while Jalen Slawson is still a risky play since he's on a two-way deal and not guaranteed a steady role.

John Collins • PF • Clippers

John Collins Expected to be Available Monday Vs. Bucks

Los Angeles Clippers forward/center John Collins (ankle) is listed as probable for Monday's game against Milwaukee and is expected to play through a minor sprain. Collins logged eight points, one three-pointer, three rebounds, one steal, and two blocks in 29 minutes during his last start against Dallas, showing modest production despite a steady run. His fantasy outlook could improve if Kawhi Leonard (ankle) sits, which would open more usage and scoring chances. Collins remains a situational hold in standard leagues. Jordan Miller and Derrick Jones Jr. could also see slight bumps in minutes depending on Leonard's status.

Tristan Vukcevic • PF • Wizards

Tristan Vukcevic Exits Early With Back Tightness

Washington Wizards forward/center Tristan Vukcevic (back) did not return to Sunday's game against the New York Knicks after experiencing lower-back tightness. The 23-year-old started in place of Alexandre Sarr (toe) but played just 15 minutes, finishing with 13 points, one rebound, one assist, and three three-pointers. His status for Wednesday in Utah is uncertain. If he misses time, Anthony Gill could see deeper rotation minutes after posting 18 points, five rebounds, and three steals in 26 minutes.

Bobby Portis • PF • Bucks

Bobby Portis is Cleared for Monday's Game

Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis (rib) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Portis is back in the mix after being scratched ahead of Saturday's game due to a left rib issue. Luckily, this doesn't appear to be a long-term issue with Portis already cleared to play again. Over the last five games, Portis is averaging 18.4 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 2.0 assists across 27.4 minutes per game. Portis plays a significant role in this rotation and should be rostered and started in most fantasy formats.

Kawhi Leonard • SF • Clippers

Kawhi Leonard Holds Questionable Tag for Monday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (ankle) is currently considered questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. It shouldn't shock anyone that the oft-injured forward is on the injury report once again. The veteran forward is dealing with a left ankle sprain that could force him to miss his third game this month. If Leonard does sit out, Jordan Miller and Kobe Sanders would see expanded roles during Monday's game. Between the two, Miller is the much better streaming option if Leonard is out. Miller has been a consistent contributor in the rotation and should be a reliable streaming option without Leonard on the court.

Danny Wolf • C • Nets

Danny Wolf Suffers Ankle Injury on Sunday

Brooklyn Nets forward Danny Wolf (ankle) needed to be helped to the locker room during Sunday's loss to the Sacramento Kings. Wolf suffered a left ankle injury when he awkwardly landed on teammate Terance Mann during the second quarter of Sunday's contest. He limped off the court and didn't return to this game. The Nets have a quick turnaround with a matchup versus the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday. Fantasy managers should consider Wolf highly questionable for that one, given he struggled getting off the court on Sunday. Chaney Johnson and E.J. Liddell would likely see larger roles in the rotation if Wolf sits out on Monday.

Killian Hayes • PG • Kings

Killian Hayes Exits in First Half

Sacramento Kings guard Killian Hayes (toe) was forced to make an early exit from Sunday's win over the Brooklyn Nets. Hayes suffered a left toe injury and was forced to leave during the first half of Sunday's game. Hayes was unable to return to the contest, which led to increased playing time for Devin Carter and Malik Monk. Both guards could continue seeing increased roles in the rotation if Hayes remains out for Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Fantasy managers will need to check back for another update ahead of that contest.

Nique Clifford • SF • Kings

Nique Clifford Exits Early on Sunday

Sacramento Kings guard Nique Clifford (ankle) exited early and was unable to return during Sunday's win over the Brooklyn Nets. Clifford left the game after rolling his ankle early in the fourth quarter. The Kings decided to hold him out for the rest of the night, but the severity of the injury is unknown right now. He finished this game with seven points, four rebounds, and four assists. Killian Hayes (toe) also exited early on Sunday, so the Kings could be shorthanded going forward. Malik Monk and Devin Carter stand to gain value if Clifford or Hayes end up missing time. The Kings don't play again until Tuesday, so fantasy managers will need to check back for another update ahead of their matchup with the Charlotte Hornets.

Royce O'Neale • PF • Suns

Royce O'Neale is Ruled Out on Sunday

Phoenix Suns forward Royce O'Neale (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Toronto Raptors. O'Neale will miss his third straight game due to left knee soreness. His absence from the rotation should mean that Jordan Goodwin continues to see an increased role. Goodwin finished with 11 points, seven rebounds, and four assists in 27 minutes of action during Saturday's game. The veteran guard should offer decent streaming value while the Suns are shorthanded. Fantasy managers looking for help on Sunday night should consider snagging Goodwin.

Kevin Porter Jr. to Miss Third Straight Game

Milwaukee Bucks guard Kevin Porter Jr. (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers, marking his third straight absence because of right knee inflammation. His continued absence keeps Ryan Rollins in an expanded role after he delivered 26 points, three three-pointers, 10 rebounds, seven assists, and three steals in 33 minutes in his last start. Rollins has been solid all season and is worthy of a roster spot in standard leagues. AJ Green and Gary Trent Jr. could continue battling for minutes, while Cam Thomas should remain in the rotation.

Collin Murray-Boyles • PF • Raptors

Collin Murray-Boyles Remains Out Sunday

Toronto Raptors forward/center Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) will miss Sunday's game against the Phoenix Suns, extending his absence to 11 straight contests because of a lingering thumb injury. The rookie was recently upgraded to questionable prior to this game, which could signal progress toward a potential return soon. In the meantime, Jakob Poeltl should continue anchoring the middle after finishing with 23 points, 11 rebounds, two assists, and two steals in 35 minutes in his last game. Sandro Mamukelashvili remains a deep-league streaming option as the primary backup center.

Jalen Johnson • PF • Hawks

Jalen Johnson Could Miss Second Straight Game

Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies because of left shoulder inflammation after missing the previous contest. If Johnson remains out, Atlanta could again lean on Mouhamed Gueye, Zaccharie Risacher, and Jonathan Kuminga for extra minutes. Gueye impressed in his last start with 16 points, four three-pointers, 10 rebounds, and two assists in 26 minutes, giving him deep-league streaming appeal. Risacher could also remain on the streaming radar after scoring 17 points off the bench, while Kuminga may see additional frontcourt opportunities.

Joel Embiid • C • 76ers

Joel Embiid Remains Sidelined Monday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (oblique) will not play Monday against the Oklahoma City Thunder as he continues to recover from a right oblique strain. His absence keeps Adem Bona in the starting lineup after the second-year center produced 16 points, five rebounds, one steal, and two blocks in 27 minutes in his last outing. Andre Drummond should also continue seeing steady backup minutes after posting eight rebounds and four blocks in 21 minutes. Both bigs are worth considering as short-term streamers, while Quentin Grimes and VJ Edgecombe may have to carry more of the offense.

Grayson Allen • SF • Suns

Grayson Allen to Miss Fourth Straight Game

Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (knee) will remain out for Sunday's game against the Toronto Raptors as he continues to manage a left knee issue, marking his fourth straight absence. His continued absence keeps Collin Gillespie in a larger role after the starting guard logged 33 minutes with 18 points, four three-pointers, four rebounds, and six assists in his last start. Gillespie should remain on the short-term streaming radar while the Suns work through injuries. Devin Booker should continue carrying a heavy offensive load, while Jalen Green may also see increased scoring opportunities.

Naz Reid • C • Timberwolves

Naz Reid Back in Action Sunday

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Boston Celtics after missing two games with a right ankle sprain. Reid should resume his usual role as a key reserve behind Julius Randle and Rudy Gobert, providing scoring and defensive stats off the bench. Over his last five games, Reid has averaged 12.0 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.4 blocks in 24.7 minutes while shooting 51.1 percent from the field and 90.0 percent from the line. His return likely pushes Joan Beringer out of the rotation.

Yesterday

Josh Hart • SF • Knicks

Josh Hart Good to Go Sunday

New York Knicks guard/forward Josh Hart (knee) is available for Sunday's game against the Washington Wizards after missing one contest with a right knee issue. Hart should resume his usual starting role and minutes workload after averaging 15.6 points, 8.6 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.8 three-pointers across his last five games. His ability to contribute across categories keeps him rostered in standard leagues. Hart's return likely pushes Mohamed Diawara back into a smaller bench role, while Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns continue leading New York's offensive usage.
