3 days agoMiami Heat point guard
Terry Rozier (foot) is unavailable for Monday's game against the 76ers due to discomfort in his right foot. Since Monday's matchup is the second half of back-to-back sets, it's likely a precautionary decision to sit the 30-year-old. On the bright side, the Heat will be glad to have
Jimmy Butler (ankle) back on the court after missing four games due to an ankle issue, especially as Rozier has struggled this November, with a shooting percentage of just 35.3 percent.

3 days agoHouston Rockets forward
Cam Whitmore (knee) is dealing with some soreness in his left knee and has been ruled out for the team's Monday night contest against the Milwaukee Bucks. The second-year wing hasn't appeared in a game since November 6 when he received around seven minutes against the San Antonio Spurs in a blowout. Once the team got healthier and added
Reed Sheppard in the NBA Draft, Whitmore fell out of the rotation and remains off of the fantasy radar until injuries or a trade happens.

3 days agoNew York Knicks guard
Miles McBride (knee) has been ruled out for a third consecutive game on Monday and will watch from the sidelines as the team takes on the Washington Wizards. The fourth-year guard is dealing with knee inflammation which seems to be bad enough to cause the Knicks to take a cautious approach. Despite coming off of the bench, McBride has averaged 26.4 minutes per game this year, so his minutes will likely be split between
Cameron Payne and the starters.

3 days agoMiami Heat forward
Jimmy Butler (ankle) has been cleared to play for Monday's matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers. Butler had missed four consecutive contests due to a right ankle sprain. He is averaging 16.1 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.9 assists in eight starts. Despite the 35-year-old's return, Miami will be without the services of
Terry Rozier (foot) and Jaime Jaquez (ankle). With Rozier and Jaquez unavailable, Butler will see plenty of action after his absence.

3 days agoWashington Wizards forward
Bilal Coulibaly (head) has been deemed questionable for the team's Monday night contest against the New York Knicks. In the Wizards' last game, Coulibaly took an elbow to the mouth, so the team has listed him with a "post-traumatic" head injury. The Frenchman has been enjoying a solid start to the season as he's increased his numbers almost fully across the board from his rookie year. If he can't suit up in this contest,
Kyshawn George and
Corey Kispert are likely to see the biggest increases in usage.

3 days agoIndiana Pacers guard
Ben Sheppard (oblique) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The young shooter played his way into the end of the team's rotation last season and has now seen five starts in 13 games this year. Unfortunately, he'll miss Monday's game with a strained oblique. With
Andrew Nembhard (knee) still sidelined,
T.J. McConnell could join the starting five while
Quenton Jackson and even
Johnny Furphy could see some minutes off of the bench.

3 days agoIndiana Pacers center
Myles Turner (calf) popped up on the injury report as questionable with a sore right calf on Monday. He's appeared on the injury report a few times so far this season but has only had to miss one game. Through 12 starts, Turner has posted three double-doubles, two 30-point games, and two 20-point games. If he's unable to play,
Jarace Walker and
Obi Toppin will see added opportunities since
James Wiseman (Achilles) and
Isaiah Jackson (Achilles) are both sidelined.

3 days agoDetroit Pistons guard
Jaden Ivey (ankle) is listed as probable on Monday and should suit up for the third game in a row after spraining his ankle and only missing one game. He's played no more than 30 minutes in the last two contests, but the last game against the Washington Wizards happened to be a blowout where he scored 28 points to go along with eight assists, four rebounds, and one steal. He should remain in all fantasy lineups as long as he's healthy.

3 days agoPhiladelphia 76ers guard
Tyrese Maxey (hamstring) has been out since November 6 when he strained his hamstring against the Los Angeles Clippers. According to Shams Charania, the star combo guard could return as early as Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies. He said there was "optimism" around Maxey's return, so nothing official just yet. Fantasy managers will want to stay tuned for the injury report on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. In the meantime,
Jared McCain will see heavy minutes with
Kyle Lowry alongside him in the starting lineup.

3 days agoDetroit Pistons guard/forward
Tim Hardaway Jr. (head) is listed as probable for the team's Monday night game against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran shooter hasn't played since November 12 when he was hit in the head and suffered a laceration. He seems primed to take back his starting role on the team without any restrictions. This likely means that
Malik Beasley will head back to the bench, but he still has received around 28 minutes per contest, so both could be viable in deeper leagues.

3 days agoChicago Bulls forward
Patrick Williams (foot) is dealing with foot soreness heading into the Monday night matchup against the Detroit Pistons but has been listed as probable. The 23-year-old hasn't been as efficient this year compared to the rest of his career but has increased a handful of his numbers so far. Through 14 games, Williams averages 10.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.1 steals, and 1.9 threes per game. He's a better asset in deeper leagues but has started to make a case for 12-team leagues recently.

3 days agoPhiladelphia 76ers center
Adem Bona has been recalled from the team's G League affiliate and is officially available to play on Monday against the Miami Heat. He was originally sent down earlier Monday morning, but with
Joel Embiid (illness) getting downgraded to doubtful, the team wanted to make sure they had another big man on the depth chart. Bona has usually come into the game during garbage time, so he's not much of a fantasy streamer at this time.

3 days agoBoston Celtics center
Kristaps Porzingis (foot) is trending in the right direction during his recovery from foot surgery. According to Jared Weiss, the big man will practice with the team's G League affiliate, the Maine Red Claws, along with
Xavier Tillman Sr. Porzingis hasn't appeared in a game yet this season with his last game played coming in last year's NBA Finals.
Al Horford,
Neemias Queta, and
Luke Kornet will continue to rotate through the center minutes until Porzingis can get back on the court.

3 days agoGolden State Warriors guard
Lindy Waters III (knee) received the starting nod on Friday and unfortunately suffered a hyperextended left knee. Now, he's on the injury report as questionable for the team's Monday night matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. If he's able to suit up, he may get the start again since
De'Anthony Melton (knee) remains sidelined. On the flip side,
Brandin Podziemski and
Buddy Hield would likely see heavy minutes with one of them moving into the starting lineup if he can't give it a go.

3 days agoGolden State Warriors guard
De'Anthony Melton (knee) will miss his seventh game of the season, this time with an ACL sprain instead of the back issues he's been facing periodically. The two-way combo guard was unable to play in their last game against the Memphis Grizzlies as well.
Buddy Hield and
Brandin Podziemski will see big minutes yet again while
Lindy Waters III (knee) could be in the starting lineup again if he's upgraded from questionable.
