Washington Wizards forward/center Tristan Vukcevic (hand) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Atlanta after missing the previous contest with a hand contusion. The 22-year-old has operated as a featured frontcourt piece, with a 27.3 usage rate, providing meaningful value in deeper formats when active. If he remains sidelined, Anthony Gill is the likely starter after producing eight points, five rebounds, and four assists in his last outing. Gill profiles as a low-ceiling streamer, while Kyshawn George and Tre Johnson could see slight usage bumps if Vukcevic sits.

Charlotte Hornets center Ryan Kalkbrenner (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's matchup against Chicago after tweaking his ankle Sunday. The rookie has started four straight games, averaging 8.8 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.8 blocks in 26.3 minutes, offering situational value in deeper formats. With Moussa Diabate returning from suspension, Kalkbrenner is likely shifting back to a reserve role. Diabate has averaged 6.4 points, 10.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists over his last five games and profiles as a rest-of-season hold if he maintains starter-level minutes. Kalkbrenner becomes a blocks-dependent streamer.

Golden State Warriors guard De'Anthony Melton (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup against New Orleans after being added to the injury report following Sunday's win. The 27-year-old has started six straight games, averaging 14.5 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 2.2 steals in 24.8 minutes during that span, providing efficient two-way production. If he sits, Brandin Podziemski and Will Richard are positioned for expanded roles. Podziemski logged 37 minutes with 18 points, 15 rebounds, and nine assists last game, while Richard added 11 points in 30 minutes. Podziemski profiles as a strong streamer. Richard is a deeper-league add.

Utah Jazz guard/forward Vince Williams Jr. (left knee) exited Monday's loss to Houston and is scheduled for an MRI after leaving the arena on crutches. The 25-year-old went down in the first half following contact and did not return, raising concern about a potential extended absence. His injury tightens the wing rotation and boosts the fantasy outlook for Isaiah Collier and Ace Bailey, who should see steadier roles. John Konchar logged 24 minutes with five points, four rebounds, two assists, and three steals, while Brice Sensabaugh poured in 26 points with four triples in 32 minutes. Both remain volatile but viable deep-league streamers if Williams misses time.

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (ankle, knee) is questionable for Tuesday's encounter with the Boston Celtics. The veteran sniper is managing a right ankle and knee injury and didn't feature on Sunday night against Portland as Phoenix concluded a back-to-back set. The Suns will be desperate to have Allen available on Tuesday, with Devin Booker (hip), Dillon Brooks (hand), and Jordan Goodwin (calf) all out. If Allen can't return against Boston, Ryan Dunn is poised to remain in the starting unit, while Jamaree Bouyea and Amir Coffey could be more involved off the bench.

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (back) is questionable for a meeting with the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night. He's dealing with a back strain and could be sidelined for a third consecutive contest. Unfortunately, injuries have left a large dent in Suggs' season, but his health issues have also provided an opportunity for others to step up. Anthony Black is having a breakout campaign, while Tristan da Silva has recently filled in for Suggs in the starting lineup. As a starter, da Silva has contributed 10.5 points and 3.9 rebounds per game this season.

Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (back) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. Green was a late scratch for Sunday's matchup with Denver due to a back issue and is in danger of missing another contest. This will be the first game of a back-to-back, and it appears unlikely that Green plays in both games. Kristaps Porzingis (illness) has already been ruled out for the two games, so Golden State could have very few frontcourt options, especially with Al Horford (toe) also questionable. Quinten Post is currently the only fully healthy Warriors big man and may have a heavy workload in the upcoming games.

Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) won't be in action during the team's upcoming back-to-back set. According to ESPN's Anthony Slater, the Latvian veteran hasn't traveled with the team. Golden State hit the road to face the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday and the Memphis Grizzlies the following day. After recovering from an Achilles issue, Porzingis finally made his Warriors debut last week, but he couldn't play on Sunday against Denver due to illness. Quinten Post and Al Horford (toe) are in line for more playing time without Porzingis, though the latter is considered questionable for Tuesday's matchup.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija (back) won't suit up for Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Avdija has been dealing with a lower back issue for several weeks and lasted for only 59 seconds against Phoenix on Sunday. It's sad to see Avdija struggling with the injury, as he was having a monster year prior to it. Shaedon Sharpe (calf) also won't be in action against the Timberwolves, so the Trail Blazers must cope with the absence of their two top scorers. Jerami Grant, Scoot Henderson, and Jrue Holiday are bound to see more offensive usage, while Sidy Cissoko is the likeliest candidate to fill the void in the starting lineup.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid (shoulder) is questionable for Tuesday's action against the Portland Trail Blazers. Reid already missed one game over the weekend due to a sore right shoulder and may remain out for another contest. Luckily for Minnesota, Rudy Gobert will be back in the lineup after sitting out Sunday's loss to Philadelphia due to a suspension. Joan Beringer started at center on Sunday, and while Gobert's return will bump him to the bench, the 19-year-old could still have a more prominent role if Reid isn't cleared for action.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (back) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's clash against the Philadelphia 76ers. The 26-year-old is managing a lower back injury. T.J. McConnell (hamstring) is also questionable, so Indiana could be without both of its primary point guards on Tuesday night. That could open the door for Ben Sheppard to play in the first unit, while Quenton Jackson and Kam Jones (back) could also have larger roles. Jones is also considered iffy for the game. Even as a starter, Sheppard has not been very productive, averaging 8.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 2.2 assists this season. There should be better options available to fantasy managers.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Chet Holmgren (back) is considered questionable to play on Tuesday in Toronto. The 2022 No. 2 overall pick had a massive 17-point, 15-rebound, three-block effort in Saturday's 121-113 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Unfortunately, he's in danger of missing this one due to back spasms. OKC is already without Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Ajay Mitchell (abdomen), and Jalen Williams (hamstring), meaning others might need to do even more work on the offensive end. If Holmgren is ruled out, Jaylin Williams, averaging 8.1 points, 5.5 boards, and 1.1 blocks in eight starts this season, would presumably replace him in the rotation. However, with the Thunder down their top scorers, it's reasonable to assume Williams will be more productive compared to previous starts.

Chicago Bulls guard Anfernee Simons (wrist) will miss Tuesday's game against Charlotte after sitting out the second half of the weekend due to a lingering wrist issue. He is officially day-to-day as the team continues to evaluate the injury. His absence shifts additional backcourt responsibility to Tre Jones, Collin Sexton and Rob Dillingham, though all three remain fringe and volatile fantasy options. Jones produced eight points and three assists last game and offers the most upside if his minutes increase, while Josh Giddey will continue to direct the offense.

Indiana Pacers forward/center Pascal Siakam (wrist) is considered doubtful for Tuesday's matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers due to a left wrist sprain. Siakam just returned to the floor on Sunday against the Mavericks after recovering from a hamstring injury, but seemingly had another setback, picking up a wrist injury during the contest. Kobe Brown and Micah Potter (ankle) will be expected to take on heavier workloads if Siakam is unable to suit up.

According to Justin Turpin of WEEI.com, Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) is considered questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Phoenix Suns. Brown is dealing with a left knee contusion after posting 32 points, eight rebounds, seven assists and three steals across 36 minutes against the Lakers on Sunday. Fantasy managers should have a better idea of the 29-year-old's status after he goes through shootaround and pregame warmups before tomorrow evening's tilt.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Indiana after sitting out the last five contests due to right knee management and shin soreness. The questionable tag signals progress, though his status remains uncertain. If Embiid is held out again, Andre Drummond and Adem Bona would continue to split center duties. Drummond produced six points and nine rebounds in his last start, while Bona added eight points and five boards. Tyrese Maxey would also retain elevated scoring and playmaking responsibilities if Embiid remains sidelined.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ty Jerome (illness) is unlikely to play Monday against the Kings, per Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal. Jerome remains listed as questionable, but indications are he will be held out. His potential absence would free up additional backcourt minutes for Scotty Pippen Jr., Cam Spencer, Javon Small, and Walter Clayton Jr. Pippen posted 18 points, six assists, two steals, and three triples last game, while Small and Clayton each logged 26 minutes. Pippen profiles as the strongest streamer if Jerome sits.

Sacramento Kings guard Devin Carter (back) is out for Monday's game against Memphis after being added late to the injury report with lower-back soreness. His absence should open additional ballhandling and scoring chances in the backcourt. Malik Monk is positioned for a larger offensive role after posting 19 points, six assists, and three triples last game, while Nique Clifford could see steadier involvement as well. Russell Westbrook will continue to initiate the offense. Newly signed Killian Hayes may factor into the rotation, though his role remains uncertain.

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Cooper Flagg (foot) will miss Tuesday's matchup against the Brooklyn Nets. The 19-year-old rookie will be sidelined for a fourth consecutive game due to a left midfoot sprain. His next opportunity to return comes Thursday versus Sacramento. In Flagg's absence, Max Christie and Khris Middleton should continue to see expanded offensive roles. Middleton finished with 25 points, seven assists, and one steal in Sunday's win over Indiana, making him a solid streaming option in most formats.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Scottie Barnes (personal) is available for Tuesday's matchup against the Thunder after sitting out Sunday. The 24-year-old has been a category anchor over his last five games, averaging 18.2 points, 9.2 rebounds, 6.2 assists, 1.6 steals, and 1.8 blocks in 33.2 minutes while shooting 52.2 percent from the field. His return trims the roles of Gradey Dick and Ja'Kobe Walter and could slightly reduce Immanuel Quickley's on-ball reps. Barnes remains a must-start option in all formats given his across-the-board production.
