Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) is questionable for Tuesday's meeting with the Mavericks. The left toe issue has given the veteran a lot of issues over the last month. But the Sixers could use him back on the floor, especially with the team dealing with so many injuries. With Joel Embiid (knee) questionable, Drummond has a chance to see more minutes against Dallas. But if Embiid and Drummond remain on the shelf, Guerschon Yabusele, amassing 49 points and 13 rebounds in the last two games, will presumably remain in the middle. Adem Bona would likely stay involved, although he doesn't do much outside of his contributions on the glass.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (calf) will play on Monday against the Orlando Magic. The veteran was battling a left calf strain, keeping him off the floor for the Warriors' last 10 contests. It's not known if he'll see limited minutes in his first game back from a lengthy layoff. But Green's presence will mean Gary Payton II will head back to the bench.

Golden State Warriors guard Buddy Hield (illness) is available for Monday's matchup with the Orlando Magic. The veteran isn't feeling well. Fortunately, the illness won't force him to miss his first game of the 2024-25 campaign. Hield is hard to trust from a fantasy standpoint. But he had 13 points while shooting 3-for-5 from deep in Friday's loss to the Phoenix Suns, so fantasy managers hope he'll keep it going on Monday night. However, Hield could have a tough time getting that done versus an Orlando squad that has allowed 105.4 points per game this season, the second-best average in the NBA.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee) is off the injury report heading into Tuesday's game against Philadelphia. The 26-year-old didn't play on Sunday versus the Cavaliers because of a sore knee. As a result, Olivier-Maxence Prosper entered the starting lineup and finished with 10 points, six rebounds, and two steals. But with Washington back in the equation, Prosper can be removed out of fantasy lineups. On the other hand, Washington remains a must-start, especially since Anthony Davis (abdomen) won't make his Mavericks debut on Tuesday.

Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) is off the injury report ahead of Tuesday's clash with the 76ers. The 32-year-old appeared in eight games leading up to Sunday's loss to the Cavs. However, he wasn't available for that one due to shoulder soreness. The Mavericks' front office made a bold move recently, with the team acquiring Anthony Davis (abdomen) from the Lakers in exchange for Luka Doncic (calf). It's unknown how Davis' presence will impact Irving's production. But with AD out on Tuesday, it will be business as usual for Irving.

Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford (ankle) is off the injury report heading into Tuesday's matchup with the 76ers. The 26-year-old wasn't available for Sunday's loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. But with Anthony Davis (abdomen) not ready to make his Mavericks debut, Gafford should be back in the middle on Tuesday night. He has played well in 24 starts during the 2024-25 campaign, averaging 15.0 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks. It's hard to tell how Davis' arrival will impact Gafford's workload. However, it's reasonable to assume he'll see a dip in minutes and production. For now, he remains worthy of a spot in any fantasy lineup.

Dallas Mavericks center Anthony Davis (abdomen) won't play on Tuesday against Philadelphia. AD suffered an abdominal strain before the blockbuster trade that sent him to the Mavericks and Luka Doncic to the Lakers. While he could be back on the floor at some point soon, his Mavs debut will need to wait. With Daniel Gafford (ankle), who didn't play on Sunday versus the Cavs, off the injury report, he remains a viable starting option for fantasy managers. But Gafford's outlook won't be as favorable once Davis is ready to roll.

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (quadriceps) will remain on the shelf for Monday's meeting with the Golden State Warriors. The team downgraded Suggs from questionable to doubtful earlier in the day and has now ruled him out for a fourth consecutive game. Anthony Black will likely continue to fill in for Suggs in the starting lineup. The second-year player has averaged 9.1 points, 2.9 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 1.1 steals in a starting role this season. Cole Anthony will get more work off the bench and has been prolific recently, sinking five triples to average 19.5 points over the past two games.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) will not play on Monday against the Utah Jazz. Indiana begins a back-to-back on Monday night, and Turner has been ruled out with a right peroneal strain after the team gave him a questionable tag on the injury report earlier in the day. Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle considers Turner day-to-day. Thomas Bryant is likely to make his second start as a Pacer. His debut in the role could not have gone much better, as the 27-year-old notched 22 points, eight rebounds, and a pair of steals in a 129-113 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Jan. 8. Obi Toppin's workload might also increase with Turner's absence.

Dallas Mavericks guard Max Christie is available for Tuesday's matchup with the 76ers. Christie was involved in the blockbuster trade involving Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis. It will be his first game for the Mavs after he averaged 8.5 points, 2.7 rebound, and 1.4 assists in 46 games with the Lakers. It's unknown how much action Christie will see. However, the 21-year-old appears to have a bright future, so he's worth stashing on fantasy rosters even if he gets off to a slow start with his new squad.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid (finger) is good to go for Monday's action against the Sacramento Kings. The team has upgraded his status from questionable to available ahead of tip-off. Reid will make a second consecutive start, with Julius Randle (groin) remaining on the shelf. A finger sprain ruined Reid's first start of the campaign on Saturday against the Washington Wizards, limiting him to eight points and three rebounds in 20 minutes. However, his career numbers as a first-unit member are solid at 14.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards (illness) will return to the lineup on Monday against the Sacramento Kings. He has recovered from an illness, which sidelined Edwards over the weekend against the Washington Wizards. Edwards will look to post his third consecutive game with 30-plus points. The Sacramento defense has struggled against him all season, allowing him to average 32.3 points per game in the matchup.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George (finger) won't play on Tuesday against the Mavericks. The 34-year-old has been banged up all season for various reasons. However, he's missed the last four games because of a strained left finger. Joel Embiid (knee), Andre Drummond (toe), Eric Gordon (knee), and Caleb Martin (hip) are all questionable, so Tyrese Maxey, coming off a 34-point outing in Sunday's loss to Boston, may be tasked with taking on more of the scoring load once again. Kelly Oubre Jr., Ricky Council IV, and Guerschon Yabusele may also be in line for added production, depending on who is ruled out.

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (illness) has been cleared to return to action on Monday against the Memphis Grizzlies. An illness kept Wembanyama out from Saturday's matchup against the Miami Heat, but he is ready to return on Monday after receiving an upgrade from questionable to available. Wembanyama is on a seven-game double-double streak and has exploded for a pair of 30-point games lately. However, with former Defensive Player of the Year Jaren Jackson Jr. in their lineup, the Grizzlies have limited the French star to 16.0 points on 34.2 percent shooting this season.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (shoulder) is set to play against the San Antonio Spurs on Monday after being upgraded from questionable to available. He will return after missing two games with shoulder soreness. Desmond Bane (ankle) will not be involved on Monday, so Morant should carry a huge load offensively for the Grizzlies. Luke Kennard started the last two games in Morant's absence and may remain in the starting lineup with Bane out. A few weeks ago, Morant cooked up a nice double-double with 21 points and 12 assists in his only previous matchup against the Spurs this season.

New York Knicks forward/center Precious Achiuwa will start Monday's game against the Houston Rockets. With OG Anunoby (foot) ruled out for the contest, Miles McBride was initially slated to replace him in the starting unit. However, it has now been announced that Achiuwa will get the nod. Achiuwa will have increased fantasy value in the role. In his only previous start this season, the 25-year-old posted a 13-point, 10-rebound double-double in a 133-107 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's meeting with the Dallas Mavericks. Embiid hasn't been on the court in a month, most recently suiting up for the January 4 game against the Brooklyn Nets. While there's still a chance he'll miss another contest, it seems he's moving in a favorable direction, so fantasy managers may have him back sometime soon. With Andre Drummond (toe) questionable, Guerschon Yabusele may draw the start once again. Yabusele has been on a roll of late, amassing 49 points and 13 rebounds in the last two games.

Memphis Grizzlies guardMarcus Smart(finger) will be sidelined for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Smart was already considered doubtful earlier in the day due to a right index finger injury. The 30-year-old veteran has suited up for just 18 games in this year's campaign, averaging 9.2 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per contest. His next chance to return to the floor is Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors.

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Bobby Portis (personal) will not return to the lineup on Monday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Initially, there was a chance Portis would be available after the team listed him as doubtful for the game. However, Milwaukee has now ruled him out, meaning Portis will miss a sixth consecutive game. Andre Jackson Jr. and Taurean Prince will be the only regular starters in the Bucks lineup on Monday, so players like AJ Green and Gary Trent Jr. are expected to step up for the team.

New York Knicks guard Miles McBride will start in Monday's game against Houston. With OG Anunoby (foot) considered day-to-day after being diagnosed with a mild foot sprain, head coach Tom Thibodeau will turn To McBride to fill the void in the lineup. The 24-year-old has averaged 9.3 points, 2.8 assists, and 2.5 rebounds this season. He's also shot 37.2% from behind the arc. McBride can get hot on the offensive end, so he certainly commands streaming attention from fantasy managers. He'll also make an excellent value option for DFS participants.
