Cleveland Cavaliers' C Jarrett Allen recorded a double-double, scoring 40 points and grabbing 17 rebounds in a 130-111 win over Portland on Sunday, Feb. 1.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (ankle) is considered probable for Monday's meeting with the Los Angeles Clippers. The former MVP appears to have put his knee issues behind him for now and is currently on the injury report with a right ankle injury. However, he is expected to play in the first game of a back-to-back. Embiid just had a 40-point double-double against New Orleans and will be difficult to contain for a tired Clippers team coming off Sunday's tilt against the Phoenix Suns.

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Christian Braun (ankle) won't be available on Sunday against the Oklahoma City Thunder, as the team has downgraded his status from doubtful to out. Brown hasn't played since early January, but the doubtful tag suggests he is making progress and could be ready for his comeback soon. Denver's next game is Tuesday night against the Detroit Pistons. In the meantime, Jalen Pickett and Julian Strawther will remain more active in the rotation, but they are unreliable for fantasy managers.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (knee) is ready to face Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday night. Denver has upgraded Jokic's status from probable to available. This will be Jokic's second game since returning from a knee injury. The three-time MVP was limited to 25 minutes against the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday, but he still did a lot of damage. Jokic finished the game with 31 points, 12 rebounds, five assists, and three steals.

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (hip, hamstring) will play on Sunday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Murray has been a regular on the injury report with various health issues this season, but he rarely misses time. Following Nikola Jokic's return to the lineup on Friday night against the Los Angeles Clippers, Murray took a secondary role on offense, yet he still had a good outing. In 36 minutes, Murray scored an efficient 20 points and had nine assists with four rebounds and one steal. While the opposition will be tougher, it wouldn't be surprising to see Murray put up similar numbers on Sunday.

San Antonio Spurs forward Harrison Barnes will be back in the first unit on Sunday against the Orlando Magic. After starting all 47 games this season, Barnes dropped to the bench on Saturday against the Charlotte Hornets, giving up his spot to Devin Vassell. On Sunday, the Spurs will be without Stephon Castle (adductor), allowing both Barnes and Vassell to start. Barnes had 11 points in Saturday's loss to the Hornets, but he struggled throughout January and isn't a great fantasy option at the moment.

San Antonio Spurs forward/center Victor Wembanyama (calf) will play on Sunday against the Orlando Magic, Michael C. Wright of ESPN.com reports. Despite dealing with a sore left calf, Wembanyama has shaken off a questionable tag. The French star will look to produce a bounce-back performance following a quiet outing in Saturday's loss to Charlotte. Across 31 minutes, Wembanyama managed only 16 points, eight rebounds, one assist, and one steal. After swatting away nine shots over his previous two outings, Wembanyama didn't register a single block against the Hornets.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Blake Wesley (foot) will be in the lineup on Sunday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He has been out of action since undergoing right foot surgery in early November. Before landing on the shelf, Wesley contributed 6.0 points, 2.3 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.7 steals across 16.3 minutes per game. He will look to re-establish himself in the rotation, though fantasy managers shouldn't expect an immediate impact from Wesley.

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Kobe Sanders will join the starting five for Sunday's tilt against the Phoenix Suns. The Clippers needed to switch things up, with James Harden (personal) out of the lineup. Sanders has made eight starts during his rookie campaign, averaging 11.8 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 1.3 assists. While he has been fairly mediocre in a starting role, Sanders' efforts in the first unit include a 20-point performance against the Golden State Warriors a month ago.

Portland Trail Blazers center Robert Williams III (knee) has been cleared to face the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday night. Lately, Williams III has played in every other game, but he will make a second consecutive appearance on Sunday. In Friday's heavy loss to the New York Knicks, Williams III notched four points, 11 rebounds, three assists, three blocks, and two steals in 20 minutes. He will have a similar workload on Sunday behind starting center Donovan Clingan.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward John Konchar (neck) will sit out a second straight game on Monday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The 25-year-old is dealing with an anterior triangle contusion. Recently, Konchar has held a significant role in the rotation, logging 20-plus minutes in each of his last five appearances. Konchar's absence creates playing opportunities for Olivier-Maxence Prosper and Javon Small, but neither has demonstrated enough quality to be viable fantasy options.

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Josh Green (thumb) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He is expected to play despite nursing a right thumb sprain. Green has made little impact in Charlotte this season, averaging 4.3 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 1.1 assists in 15.9 minutes per game. He has finished two of his last three appearances scoreless and hasn't contributed anything defensively during this stretch either.

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Santi Aldama (knee) won't play on Monday against the Minnesota Timberwolves, missing a fourth consecutive game. The Spanish big man is managing a right knee injury. Memphis also didn't have Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps) on Saturday against Minnesota, leaving the frontcourt short of bodies. Jock Landale has made four consecutive starts at center, while GG Jackson II's minutes have been on the rise recently. On Saturday, Jackson II was among Memphis' best performers with 19 points, four rebounds, and five assists.

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Monday's rematch against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He missed Saturday's clash against Minnesota due to a left quadriceps contusion and may remain out on Monday night. Jackson Jr.'s absence on Saturday allowed Ty Jerome to make his season debut as a starter. He did a great job in 20 minutes, scoring a team-high 20 points and dishing out six assists. GG Jackson II also benefited from extra playing time, going for 19 points, four rebounds, and five assists in 28 minutes off the bench.

Minnesota Timberwolves power forward Julius Randle (thumb) may be sidelined for the first time in 2025-26 on Monday against the Memphis Grizzlies, as the team has listed him as questionable on the injury report. Randle stood out with 27 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists in Saturday's win over the Grizzlies, but he also appears to have hurt his left thumb. While the injury doesn't appear to be serious, Randle is a left-handed shooter, and he might feel too uncomfortable to play. Anthony Edwards (back) is also listed as questionable for Monday, so Minnesota's offense could have a very different look. Meanwhile, Jaylen Clarke and Naz Reid are candidates for more playing time if Randle misses the action.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards (back) has been listed as questionable for Monday's tilt against the Memphis Grizzlies. The four-time All-Star is battling back spasms and may exit the lineup for the fourth time in 2026. Mike Conley is likely to get a starting role if Edwards can't play, though the veteran floor general is on his last legs and hasn't been productive this season. Bones Hyland and Jaylen Clark will also be in a position to see more playing time.

Houston Rockets forward Kevin Durant (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Indiana Pacers. The veteran star has been added to the injury report with a left ankle sprain and will sit out only his third game of the season. Durant's absence will leave a large hole in the rotation, as he has averaged over 38 minutes per game across his last 10 appearances. Reed Sheppard, Josh Okogie, and Dorian Finney-Smith could all see additional action in Monday's favorable fantasy matchup.

Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (calf) won't play against the New York Knicks on Sunday. Reaves has been questionable on the injury report a few times this week, but he still needs more time to recover from a left calf strain. The 27-year-old will miss his 19th consecutive game. Marcus Smart and Gabe Vincent will continue to enjoy extra usage in Reaves' absence. However, both players have been quiet in recent games and aren't strong fantasy options.

Phoenix Suns guard Jalen Green (hamstring, hip) will miss Sunday's action against the Los Angeles Clippers. Green is managing a hamstring injury and also suffered a left hip contusion on Friday against Cleveland when he returned from a three-game absence. The Suns will also remain without Devin Booker (ankle) on Sunday, giving Grayson Allen, Collin Gillespie, and Jordan Goodwin an opportunity to see additional time on the court. The situation also benefits Dillon Brooks, who has been Phoenix's offense leader lately. Brooks has averaged 29.8 points over the last four contests.

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (personal) won't play on Sunday against the Phoenix Suns. The former MVP will sit out the first leg of a back-to-back for personal reasons. With Harden out, Kris Dunn and Jordan Miller will get more work in the backcourt. The Clippers will also have Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) in the lineup for the first time since Dec. 26. At the same time, the offense will flow more through Kawhi Leonard.
