Atlanta Hawks center Jock Landale (ankle) will not return to Wednesday's game against Orlando after suffering a right ankle sprain, finishing with eight points, one rebound, and one assist in 15 minutes. If Landale is forced to miss additional time, Onyeka Okongwu should continue handling heavy frontcourt minutes after posting 16 points, seven rebounds, four assists, two steals, and two blocks in 31 minutes. Jonathan Kuminga could also see increased offensive chances off the bench, while Mouhamed Gueye may pick up situational minutes. Okongwu stands out as the clearest fantasy beneficiary if Landale remains sidelined.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Paul George erupted for a season-high 39 points in Wednesday's win over Washington, adding six assists, five rebounds, three steals, and six three-pointers in 30 minutes. The veteran wing has been rolling lately, averaging 28.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 5.0 triples, 3.5 assists, and 3.0 steals across his last four games while handling a 28.1 usage rate. George looks locked in as a must-start option in all formats, especially with Joel Embiid (illness) sidelined. Tyrese Maxey should continue seeing steady usage, while VJ Edgecombe and Kelly Oubre Jr. could see slightly fewer scoring chances with George taking on a larger offensive role.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (calf) will miss Thursday's game against New Orleans, extending his recent absence due to a lingering calf strain. His continued absence should keep Scoot Henderson in an elevated role after the young guard produced 15 points with three three-pointers in 29 minutes in the last win over the Clippers and 21 points with seven assists in a prior start. Henderson shapes up as a strong short-term points and assists streamer, while Deni Avdija and Jrue Holiday could also see slightly higher offensive workloads until Grant returns.

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Trey Murphy III (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against Portland and could miss a fourth straight contest due to a right ankle sprain. With the Pelicans out of the playoff race, the team may remain cautious, which keeps Jeremiah Fears and Jordan Hawkins on the deep-league radar for streaming value. Fears posted 12 points, five assists, two steals, and one block in 22 minutes in the last game, while Yves Missi added four blocks as a starter but remains a defensive specialist option. Zion Williamson and Dejounte Murray should continue seeing steady usage if Murphy sits.

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Gary Trent Jr. (hip) will not return to Wednesday's game against Houston after exiting early with a hip contusion, finishing with one steal and three missed shots in seven minutes. His absence is notable with Milwaukee already missing multiple rotation players, which could push Andre Jackson Jr. and Cormac Ryan into larger roles the rest of the night. Trent had been trending toward deeper league relevance recently due to the injury depleted roster, so this setback adds risk for managers relying on his minutes. AJ Green and Ousmane Dieng may also see small usage bumps.

Los Angeles Lakers guard Marcus Smart (ankle) will miss Thursday's game against Oklahoma City, extending his absence to six straight games because of a right ankle contusion. His continued absence keeps Jake LaRavia in the starting lineup after he logged 14 points, seven rebounds, and two three-pointers in 38 minutes during the last outing, making him a viable deep-league streamer for rebounds and low-end scoring. Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves should continue handling most of the backcourt usage, while LaRavia's secure minutes give him short-term value until Smart is cleared to return.

Phoenix Suns center Mark Williams (foot) is questionable for Thursday's game against Charlotte as he nears a return from a monthlong absence caused by a left foot stress reaction. The fourth-year big man has averaged 11.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 0.9 blocks in 23.6 minutes across 56 games, giving him solid value in big man categories if he sees enough minutes. His return would likely push Oso Ighodaro into a smaller role, lowering his already modest fantasy value. Williams could also take some interior opportunities from Royce O'Neale while adding defensive stats for category managers.

Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (calf) is available for Wednesday's game against Utah but is expected to operate under a minutes restriction after missing the previous contest. The veteran has averaged 14.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.4 assists across 26.6 minutes over his recent March stretch, though fantasy managers should expect modest production if his workload stays capped. He posted 17 points, seven rebounds, and one block in 31 minutes in a prior meeting with Utah, showing his category versatility. Peyton Watson could still hold value in deeper leagues if Gordon's playing time remains carefully managed alongside Nikola Jokic.

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against San Antonio as the team manages his workload on the first night of a back-to-back, though he could return Thursday. His absence should open extra rotation minutes for Pat Spencer, who delivered seven points, five rebounds, eight assists, and two steals in 24 minutes in his last appearance, making him a possible deep-league assists streamer. Will Richard and Seth Curry could also see expanded roles, while Brandin Podziemski may take on slightly more ballhandling duties with Payton unavailable.

Golden State Warriors forward Gui Santos (pelvis) is out for Wednesday's game against San Antonio after being downgraded from questionable, opening minutes in a thin frontcourt rotation. His next chance to return comes Thursday, but in the short term, Will Richard could see a larger role after producing eight points with two three-pointers, two rebounds, and two assists in a 25-minute start recently. Malevy Leons and Nate Williams may also see deeper rotation minutes. Richard is a viable streamer in deeper formats, while Draymond Green and Brandin Podziemski should handle more of the playmaking duties with Santos out.

Milwaukee Bucks forwards Bobby Portis (wrist) and Kyle Kuzma (Achilles) are out for Wednesday's game against Houston, further thinning an already depleted rotation. Kuzma scored 20 points with six rebounds and three assists in 23 minutes Tuesday, but this appears to be precautionary maintenance on the second night of a back-to-back. Ousmane Dieng should continue seeing elevated usage after posting 11 points, 10 rebounds, and five assists in 29 minutes, making him a strong streamer. Pete Nance also gains deep-league appeal after a 39-minute start recently, while AJ Green may see added shot volume.

Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin (foot) is available for Wednesday's game against Chicago after entering with a probable tag, giving Indiana another usable frontcourt body amid multiple injuries. He has averaged 13.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.6 three-pointers in 18.7 minutes over his last five games with a 26.9 usage rate, making him a viable deep-league streamer while the roster is thin. His minutes floor looks safer with Andrew Nembhard (back) and Aaron Nesmith (neck) sidelined, while Pascal Siakam and Jay Huff should continue seeing stable workloads alongside him in expanded rotations.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Ryan Rollins (hip) won't suit up for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. Rollins made his return to the court on Tuesday, but will sit out the second leg of this back-to-back set. He finished with 24 points, nine assists, and seven rebounds across 36 minutes of action. The Bucks will likely need to lean on AJ Green, Gary Trent Jr., and Andre Jackson Jr. on Wednesday. Out of this trio, Green is the most consistent fantasy option. He should be considered a trustworthy DFS option for Wednesday's slate.

Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. This appears to be a rest day for Turner during the second leg of the back-to-back set. Turner returned to the lineup on Tuesday and finished with 10 points, eight rebounds, and four blocks in 27 minutes of action. The Bucks aren't playing for anything at this point in the season, so it's not shocking to see them resting players. Jericho Sims should get the start at center, while Pete Nance and Ousmane Dieng see increased roles as well. Sims could have some deep league streaming value or a cheap DFS option for Wednesday's slate.

Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam (knee) is available to play ahead of Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. As expected, Siakam will play after being listed as probable on the injury report due to a lingering right knee issue. The Pacers have a ton of injuries right now, so Siakam is the go-to guy on offense. This season, Siakam is averaging 23.8 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 3.8 assists across 33.4 minutes per game. He is one of the most elite fantasy options at the power forward spot right now. Siakam needs to be rostered and started in all fantasy formats.

Toronto Raptors forward Brandon Ingram (heel) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. In an unsurprising decision, the Raptors have decided to rest Ingram during the second leg of this back-to-back set. Ingram will take a seat due to right heel inflammation management. The expectation is that Ingram will be back in the mix for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. His absence should mean larger roles for Jamal Shead, Ja'Kobe Walter, and Gradey Dick. Among the three, Shead is probably the best streaming choice after dishing out 22 assists over the last two games.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Scottie Barnes (shoulder) is available to play ahead of Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Barnes will shake off the questionable tag and suit up for this game after being tagged on the injury report due to a left shoulder contusion. Barnes will likely be asked to carry the load on offense with Brandon Ingram (heel) and Immanuel Quickley (foot) both sidelined on Wednesday. The 24-year-old has been on a roll lately with 10 or more assists in five straight games. Fantasy managers need to make sure Barnes is in their lineups ahead of tip-off.

Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Quickley will miss his sixth game in a row due to right foot plantar fasciitis. It sounds like Quickley is progressing in his recovery, but he should still be considered doubtful for Friday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. Ja'Kobe Walter is in line to draw another start with Quickley out again on Wednesday. Walter has finished with 11 points or more in six of his last eight games. He should be a viable fantasy option while Quickley is sidelined. Jamal Shead is also worth a look after dishing out 22 assists over the last two games.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Fantasy managers and Knicks fans don't need to worry as this appears to be a maintenance day. It's the second leg of a back-to-back set, so the Knicks have elected to rest Brunson against a struggling Grizzlies squad. The Knicks' backcourt is going to be extremely thin with Miles McBride (pelvis) also sitting out. That means Jose Alvarado, Jordan Clarkson, and Landry Shamet should all see increased playing time. Out of the trio, Alvarado is the most consistent option to use as a streaming option for Wednesday's slate.

According to K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network, Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (hamstring) won't play against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday. Giddey was added late to the injury report and will miss his first game since March 5 due to left hamstring tightness. The 23-year-old's next chance to play is against the Knicks on Friday. Rob Dillingham could take on extra minutes with Giddey out of action this evening. The 21-year-old has averaged 8.3 points, 2.9 assists and 2.6 rebounds in 20.3 minutes per outing across 23 appearances since joining the Bulls.
