Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is available for Sunday's game against the Kings. The King had 22 points, nine assists, and seven boards in 28 minutes in the 129-101 win over the Golden State Warriors on Saturday. He popped up on the injury report because of the infamous foot issue. However, that won't keep him off the floor. James has a chance to do something meaningful for fantasy managers, considering Sacramento isn't the best defensively, although his overall contributions could be less than usual if the Lakers build a decisive lead throughout the contest.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (ankle) won't play on Sunday versus the Clippers. The 25-year-old hasn't missed a game since mid-December. Unfortunately, he injured his ankle during Saturday's win over the Utah Jazz. His next opportunity to get on the floor will be on Tuesday versus the Lakers. Fortunately, Trey Murphy III (shoulder) will return from his five-game absence, which will help lessen the blow caused by Williamson's absence.

Utah Jazz forward/center Kevin Love (rest) is out for Monday's game against the Nuggets as the veteran sits for maintenance after playing in four straight contests. His absence should help lock in Kyle Filipowski's minutes in an already thin Utah frontcourt. Filipowski produced 12 points, six rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one block in 30 minutes last game and continues to log a steady run. With Utah prioritizing youth and dealing with multiple frontcourt injuries, Filipowski profiles as more than a streamer and should be viewed as a long-term hold in most formats.

Washington Wizards forward/center Tristan Vukcevic (thigh) is questionable for Monday's game against the Rockets as he continues to work through lower-body injuries. His minutes have been tightly managed of late, with his workload consistently capped, limiting his fantasy ceiling. Anthony Gill (illness), who posted eight points, five rebounds, and three assists in 28 minutes last game, could handle a larger workload if available. Vukcevic remains a high-risk option in standard formats given the unstable role and ongoing health concerns.

Los Angeles Clippers forward/center John Collins (head) is available for Sunday's game against the Pelicans after missing two contests. Collins has averaged 28.7 minutes, 13.4 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 1.2 assists over his last five appearances, providing steady mid-round production. His return should tighten the frontcourt rotation, cutting into the minutes of Nicolas Batum and Kobe Sanders. Collins is safe to deploy in standard formats, especially with Darius Garland (toe) still out, while Kawhi Leonard and Bennedict Mathurin remain primary scoring options.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Brandon Clarke (calf) will be re-evaluated in two weeks, the team announced Sunday. Clarke has been sidelined since Dec. 20 and remains without a firm return timeline, keeping him off the fantasy radar in standard leagues. With Clarke, Zach Edey (ankle), and Santi Aldama (knee) still unavailable, Memphis continues to rely on Olivier-Maxence Prosper, Taylor Hendricks, and GG Jackson II. Prosper posted 16 points and 10 rebounds in 25 minutes last game, while Hendricks added 11 points and two blocks. Those frontcourt pieces retain short-term streaming value.

Dallas Mavericks forward Caleb Martin (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Thunder after missing one contest. With Cooper Flagg (foot), Naji Marshall (finger), and P.J. Washington (ankle) sidelined, Martin could see a bump from his 17-minute average over the last five games. In that span, he has produced 5.2 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 1.4 steals, flashing defensive upside. He logged 10 points and three steals in 20 minutes his last time out. Martin is a risky streamer, but the opportunity and potential steals make him viable in deeper formats.

Dallas Mavericks forwards P.J. Washington (ankle) and Naji Marshall (finger) are out for Sunday's game against the Thunder. Washington will miss his third straight contest, while Marshall exits the rotation after logging 30 minutes per game this season. Dallas is expected to lean on Khris Middleton, Klay Thompson, and Caleb Martin in expanded roles. Middleton posted 10 points and three assists in 19 minutes Friday, and Thompson has averaged 11 points in a limited run recently. Martin also offers defensive streaming value. Middleton and Brandon Williams are positioned to handle more of the offense.

Washington Wizards guard/forward Kyshawn George (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against the Rockets after being limited to 15 minutes in Saturday's loss to Toronto. The second-year wing has averaged 29.1 minutes with a 21.7 percent usage rate as a starter, though his workload has fluctuated while managing the knee issue. If he sits, Will Riley and Justin Champagnie profile as short-term streamers. Riley posted 19 points in 35 minutes last game, while Champagnie added 12 points and three blocks in 22 minutes. Still, Washington's rotation remains difficult to trust due to inconsistent minute distribution.

Boston Celtics forward Baylor Scheierman (thumb) is available for Sunday's game against the 76ers after being listed as questionable. The second-year wing has started seven straight games, averaging 8.9 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 1.7 triples in 26 minutes with a 14.4 usage rate. He posted 10 points, three rebounds, and six assists in 22 minutes Friday. With Jayson Tatum (Achilles) sidelined, Scheierman offers short-term streaming appeal, though his night-to-night production remains volatile, making him a risky option. Derrick White and Jaylen Brown still command the offense.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Kings after appearing in the first half of a back-to-back set. The 41-year-old is averaging 21.5 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 7.0 assists in 33.2 minutes, and his potential absence would shift usage toward Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves. Jake LaRavia logged 15 points, five rebounds, and three assists in 27 minutes during the last outing, making him a viable streamer, while Jarred Vanderbilt and Rui Hachimura would profile as deeper-league adds if James sits.

Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura (illness) has been cleared to play in Sunday's game against the Kings after missing two contests. The 28-year-old is averaging 9.0 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.4 triples over his last five games in 27.0 minutes and should slide back into a steady rotation role. If LeBron James (foot) sits, Hachimura could push past 26 minutes and gain streaming appeal in points leagues. Jake LaRavia and Jarred Vanderbilt would see slightly reduced upside with Hachimura active.

Houston Rockets forward Jabari Smith Jr. (ankle) remains out on Monday versus Washington. He tweaked his ankle during the 113-108 win over the Orlando Magic on Thursday and didn't suit up on Saturday in Miami. Reed Sheppard took his spot in the starting lineup, amassing 14 points, five assists, and four rebounds. Fantasy managers might see more production out of Sheppard against the Wizards, a team that has struggled defensively all year.

Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (hip) will play on Sunday versus Portland. He suffered a left hip injury during Tuesday's 119-98 win over the Washington Wizards, keeping him off the floor for the rematch on Thursday evening. Jonathan Kuminga got the start in that one, ending with 17 points, nine rebounds, three assists, one steal, and one block. While Kuminga may head back to the bench, he still offers plenty of upside for fantasy managers due to the favorable matchup on the horizon.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija (back) won't suit up on Sunday against Atlanta. He's been dealing with the lower back injury for a while. Although the 25-year-old has played sparingly since the injury was first announced, the latest setback will now cost him a fourth-straight contest. Avdija has had a wonderful campaign, averaging a career-high 24.4 points with 7.0 rebounds, and 6.6 assists. His next chance to get on the floor will be on Wednesday in Memphis. With Shaedon Sharpe (leg) also sidelined, the Blazers should get extra production from Jerami Grant, Jrue Holiday, and Donovan Clingan. Kris Murray, who has amassed 7.8 points, 4.8 boards, and 1.1 steals in 14 starts this season, is expected to stay with the first-five until Avdija is back in the mix.

The Memphis Grizzlies announced on Sunday that center Zach Edey (ankle) will undergo another surgery to address "ongoing discomfort" in his left ankle. He is anticipated to recover fully, with "a timeline" regarding his recovery to be provided after the procedure. The 23-year-old appeared in 66 games as a rookie, averaging 9.2 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks. He underwent surgery on his left ankle back on June 10. Unfortunately, Edey logged only 13 games throughout the 2025-26 campaign before he went back on the shelf. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect to see him on the floor for the remainder of the season. There is also reason to believe he may miss at least the start of training camp, although it's too early to speculate. While Edey is sidelined, Olivier-Maxence Prosper, coming off a 16-point, 10-rebound performance, should see the most minutes at the five, even if he's not starting. That should remain the case until Santi Aldama (knee) is cleared to suit up.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (ankle) is off the injury report and expected to play Sunday against New Orleans. He sat out Thursday with left ankle soreness and missed practice due to illness, but he is ready to return. Leonard has been rolling, averaging 28.4 points, 7.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.6 steals, and 2.0 three-pointers across 32.1 minutes in his last five games. His return pushes Bennedict Mathurin back into a secondary role and trims Kris Dunn's usage. Leonard remains a must-start in all formats, with his recent workload easing concerns about durability.

Sacramento Kings guard Russell Westbrook (thigh) is off the injury report and expected to play Sunday against the Lakers. He sat out Thursday's win over Dallas due to a thigh contusion but is ready to return. Over his last five appearances, the veteran has averaged 15.2 points, 2.4 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 1.4 three-pointers. His return likely sends Devin Carter back to the bench after Carter posted 15 points, seven rebounds, five assists, and four steals in 32 minutes in the last game. Westbrook remains a viable source of points and assists, though his shooting efficiency and fluctuating role can make him a bit unpredictable from night to night.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with Brooklyn, marking his third straight absence. The team does not anticipate a long-term issue, though he remains day-to-day heading into Tuesday. If James Harden (thumb) is unable to play, Cleveland would have even more offensive workload and minutes to spread around the rotation. Jaylon Tyson started the last game and logged 41 minutes, finishing with 15 points, four rebounds, one assist, two steals, and four three-pointers. Sam Merrill added 20 points in 36 minutes, while Craig Porter Jr. recorded 12 assists in 32 minutes. Tyson profiles as the top short-term add, and Merrill remains a viable scoring streamer.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (oblique) will sit out the next three games after imaging confirmed a strain. The former MVP experienced right-side discomfort following Thursday's win and is targeting a potential return on March 7. With Embiid sidelined, Andre Drummond is expected to step into the starting role. In his last start on Feb. 22, Drummond logged 22 minutes and produced six points, nine rebounds, two assists, and one steal. Second-year big man Adem Bona added eight points and five rebounds in 20 minutes that night. Drummond profiles as a short-term rebounding streamer, while Tyrese Maxey should shoulder even heavier offensive usage.
