Olivier-Maxence Prosper Off Injury Report Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Olivier-Maxence Prosper (wrist) is not listed on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Knicks after missing one contest. The 23-year-old has been productive recently, averaging 15.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.8 threes and 1.6 steals in 24.4 minutes over his last five games, giving him some late-season appeal in deeper formats. With Taylor Hendricks (finger) doubtful, Prosper could handle significant frontcourt minutes again. His return should help steady Memphis' frontcourt rotation alongside G.G. Jackson and Cedric Coward, but his fantasy value will still depend on whether he continues to see consistent minutes.

Ty Jerome to Miss Fifth Straight Game

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ty Jerome (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against New York, marking his fifth straight absence due to a left ankle sprain. With Jerome sidelined, Javon Small should continue seeing starting point guard duties, while Cam Spencer and Walter Clayton Jr. remain involved in the rotation. Spencer finished with 16 points, four three-pointers, and five assists in 19 minutes last game, giving him some deep league and DFS appeal. Small also offers assist and steal upside, while Clayton provides secondary playmaking. Jerome can be dropped in most redraft formats.

Caris LeVert Available Tuesday Against Raptors

Detroit Pistons guard Caris LeVert (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against Toronto after being listed as questionable. The veteran wing logged 10 points, four rebounds, two assists, and one block in 26 minutes off the bench Monday and has averaged 7.0 points, 3.4 assists, and 3.2 rebounds in 19.8 minutes over his last five games. LeVert's reserve role caps his fantasy ceiling, making him more of a deep-league option for modest across-the-board production. His availability could cut slightly into Kevin Huerter's and Marcus Sasser's minutes in the second unit.

Miles McBride to Suit up on Tuesday

New York Knicks guard Miles McBride (pelvis) is available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Houston Rockets. It was uncertain if McBride would be able to play after he made an early exit from Sunday's game. He played 11 minutes on Sunday before leaving due to what is being called a pelvic injury. He has been cleared for Tuesday's game, but the Knicks will likely monitor him closely. McBride is recovering from sports hernia surgery, so they don't want to re-aggravate the issue. The 25-year-old guard won't be an ideal streaming option for Tuesday's slate.

Collin Murray-Boyles Cleared to Play Tuesday

Toronto Raptors forward Collin Murray-Boyles (back) is available for Tuesday's game against Detroit after missing time with lower back spasms. The rookie first-round pick has flashed defensive upside in limited run, posting 9.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks across his last three appearances, though his role remains modest behind Jakob Poeltl and Sandro Mamukelashvili. Murray-Boyles could carve out deeper-league value for managers chasing blocks, but inconsistent minutes limit his reliability. His return may trim Mamukelashvili's workload slightly, while Poeltl should continue handling the bulk of the center minutes.

Marcus Sasser  • PG  •  Pistons

Marcus Sasser is Available on Tuesday

Detroit Pistons guard Marcus Sasser (hip) is available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Sasser will shed the questionable tag and should play his normal role in the rotation on Tuesday. He finished with 12 points, four assists, and knocked down four three-pointers across 18 minutes of action on Monday. The second-year guard doesn't offer a ton of streaming value, but he's a decent source of three-pointers. He figures to continue playing minutes in the teens with the Pistons mostly healthy outside of Cade Cunningham (lung) right now.

Brandon Ingram  • SF  •  Raptors

Brandon Ingram Returns Vs. Detroit

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Brandon Ingram (heel) will play Tuesday against Detroit after missing one game with right heel soreness. Ingram has averaged 14.8 points, 1.0 three-pointer, 5.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.0 block in 31.6 minutes over his last five games and should resume his usual role as a secondary scoring option behind RJ Barrett and Scottie Barnes. His return likely sends Ja'Kobe Walter back to the bench after a spot start. Ingram remains a steady category contributor, particularly for points and rebounds, and should already be rostered in most competitive formats.

Ziaire Williams Moves into Starting Five

Brooklyn Nets forward Ziaire Williams will shift back into the starting five ahead of Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Williams is back in the rotation after sitting out Sunday's game due to a coach's decision. Williams will move back into the starting five with Terance Mann (Achilles) unavailable on Tuesday. Williams has scored 16 points or more in five straight games before getting benched on Sunday. When active, Williams is a decent streaming option and figures to play 20-plus minutes in the rotation without Mann available.

Duncan Robinson  • SG  •  Pistons

Duncan Robinson Active Vs. Toronto

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Duncan Robinson (hip) will play Tuesday against Toronto after sitting out one game with right hip soreness. The veteran sharpshooter has averaged 12.8 points, 3.4 three-pointers, 3.0 rebounds, and 2.4 assists in 28.0 minutes over his last five games, giving him value for managers targeting three-point production. His return likely pushes Kevin Huerter back into a smaller role after Huerter scored 17 points as a spot starter Monday. Robinson remains a viable category specialist for threes, while Tobias Harris and Ausar Thompson should continue handling steady offensive roles.

Jalen Duren  • C  •  Pistons

Jalen Duren is Back in Action on Tuesday

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (knee) is available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Duren is back in action after sitting out Monday's game due to knee injury management reasons. With Duren back in the mix, Paul Reed should see a reduced role in the rotation. Reed finished with 21 points and 10 rebounds across 34 minutes on Monday. His streaming value will take a hit with Duren back in the mix. Fantasy managers should double-check their lineups and make sure Duren is active ahead of tip-off.

Tobias Harris  • SF  •  Pistons

Tobias Harris Available Tuesday

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (hip) has been cleared to play Tuesday against Toronto after missing one game with left hip soreness. Harris has been steady lately, averaging 15.8 points, 1.6 three-pointers, 5.8 rebounds, 4.8 assists, and 1.2 blocks in 29.3 minutes over his last five, making him a reliable multi-category option. Javonte Green, who scored 19 points in 30 minutes as a spot starter Monday, is expected to return to a bench role. Harris should continue to see consistent usage alongside Jalen Duren and Daniss Jenkins.

Marvin Bagley III to Miss Second Straight Game

Dallas Mavericks forward Marvin Bagley III (shoulder) is ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Bagley will miss both legs of the back-to-back set due to a left shoulder injury. His next chance to play will come on Friday, so fantasy managers should check back ahead of that game. In the meantime, Dwight Powell figures to serve as the backup center to Daniel Gafford on Tuesday. Powell finished with nine points and eight rebounds across 24 minutes on Monday. Fantasy managers looking for a cheap DFS option might want to consider Powell, given he'll have an expanded role.

Ryan Rollins  • SG  •  Bucks

Ryan Rollins Good to Go Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks guard Ryan Rollins (hip) is available for Tuesday's game against Dallas after missing one contest with left hip soreness. Rollins has been productive when given starter minutes, averaging 20.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 5.4 assists, and 1.6 steals across his last five appearances, and he should continue seeing strong usage with Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) and Bobby Portis (wrist) still out. Andre Jackson Jr. is expected to move back to the bench with Rollins returning. Rollins should continue to hold standard-league value and carries DFS appeal while Milwaukee remains short-handed.

Klay Thompson  • SG  •  Mavericks

Klay Thompson is Resting on Tuesday

Dallas Mavericks guard Klay Thompson (rest) is heading to the bench ahead of Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. It's not shocking to see the Mavs resting the veteran Thompson during the second leg of this back-to-back set. He finished with five points, two assists, and two rebounds across 22 minutes of action on Monday. The Mavs are very thin on forward depth, so Khris Middleton will likely play a significant role. The veteran forward doesn't offer a ton of streaming appeal, but could be worth a look as a cheap DFS option.

Kyle Kuzma  • PF  •  Bucks

Kyle Kuzma Returns Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Kyle Kuzma (Achilles) will play Tuesday against Dallas after missing four games with right Achilles tendinopathy. His recent production has been fairly modest, averaging 10.6 points, 1.2 three-pointers, 2.8 rebounds, and 2.6 assists in 24.0 minutes over his last five, which makes him more of a depth option than a clear must-start. Pete Nance is likely headed back to a smaller bench role with Kuzma returning. With Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) still out, Kuzma could see enough touches to stay fantasy relevant. Kuzma fits best as a deeper-league play with realistic expectations.

Marcus Smart  • PG  •  Lakers

Marcus Smart Out Against Cavs

Los Angeles Lakers guard Marcus Smart (ankle) is unavailable for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He will miss his fifth consecutive contest due to a right ankle contusion, with his next opportunity to return coming Thursday versus Oklahoma City. With Smart sidelined, Luke Kennard and Jake LaRavia should continue to see increased opportunities. Kennard could be viewed as a solid short-term streaming option after recording 19 points, two rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 23 minutes during Monday's 120-101 win over Washington.

Max Strus  • SG  •  Cavaliers

Max Strus Active on Tuesday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Max Strus (foot) is available for Tuesday's matchup with the Los Angeles Lakers. Strus had Monday's game against Utah off for left foot injury maintenance. The 30-year-old forward has been coming off the bench, averaging 12.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists across six games since recovering from a left foot issue that kept him sidelined for most of the 2025-26 campaign.

Sam Merrill Unavailable Against Lakers

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Sam Merrill (hamstring) won't play against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday. Merrill will have the evening for maintenance and should be back in action for Thursday's game against Golden State. Keon Ellis could absorb some of Merrill's available minutes this evening. Ellis collected 13 points, two rebounds, one assist, two steals, and one block across 24 minutes in his last outing on Monday against the Jazz.

Jarrett Allen  • C  •  Cavaliers

Jarrett Allen Slated to Suit Up on Tuesday

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (knee) is available to suit up against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday. Allen will be back in action after sitting out Monday's game against Utah to rest. In his last outing on Friday versus Miami, the 27-year-old big man was limited to 18 minutes but still collected a double-double, scoring 18 points and grabbing 10 rebounds. Keon Ellis and Thomas Bryant will likely see their roles reduced with Allen returning to the lineup.

Jaylen Wells  • SF  •  Grizzlies

Jaylen Wells Has Successful Surgery on Tuesday

On Tuesday, the Memphis Grizzlies announced guard/forward Jaylen Wells (toe) underwent a successful procedure to stabilize his right big toe. The 22-year-old will miss the rest of the season but is expected to be good to go for the start of the 2026-27 campaign. Wells played in 69 contests this season, averaging 12.5 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.1 blocks, and 0.9 steals while shooting 43.1 percent from the field and 35.3 percent from beyond the arc across 26.4 minutes per game. Wells extended absence opens the door for Rayan Rupert, Jahmai Mashack, and DeJon Jarreau to take on expanded roles in the rotation.
