  • Jock Landale C | ATL

    Hawks' Jock Landale: Stuck in reserve role

    Landale finished Saturday's 125-116 win over Philadelphia with seven points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and one rebound across 19 minutes.

    With Onyeka Okongwu healthy, Landale is producing quality numbers on a per-minute basis but has his fantasy upside capped in a limited role off the bench. Landale has averaged 10.2 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.2 three-pointers in 17.9 minutes per contest over his last six games, shooting 41.2 percent from long distance during this span.

  • Ivica Zubac C | IND

    Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Remains out for Sunday

    Zubac (ankle) is out for Sunday's game versus Portland.

    Zubac's debut continues to be put on hold as he recovers from his ankle sprain. The Pacers are being very cautious with their new addition, but recent reports have suggested that he's getting closer.

  • Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Not listed on injury report

    Ayton (knee) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against New York.

    Ayton logged just four minutes in Thursday's loss to Denver and didn't play in Friday's win over the Pacers due to left knee soreness, though he's set to return Sunday. With the big man returning to the lineup, Jaxson Hayes should revert to a bench role, while Drew Timme is likely to see a significant dip in playing time and could fall out of the rotation entirely.

  • Maxi Kleber C | LAL

    Lakers' Maxi Kleber: Listed as questionable

    Kleber (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Knicks.

    Kleber remains day-to-day after two straight absences for the Lakers. His availability (or lack thereof) isn't going to make many waves in fantasy hoops with Deandre Ayton off the injury report.

  • Warriors' Kristaps Porzingis: Available Saturday

    Porzingis (illness) is available for Saturday's game against the Thunder.

    Porzingis will shake off his questionable tag and return from a six-game absence due to an illness. During his lone Warriors appearance in a loss to Boston on Feb. 19, the veteran big man posted 12 points, one rebound, one assist and one block in 17 minutes. He'll be limited to around 15-20 minutes Saturday, according to Anthony Slater of ESPN.com.

  • Alex Sarr C | WAS

    Wizards' Alex Sarr: Set to return Sunday

    Sarr (hamstring) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Pelicans.

    Sarr has been rehabbing from a right hamstring strain that caused him to miss 10 consecutive games dating back to mid-February. His absence from the injury report indicates that he's progressed enough in his recovery to return Sunday, and if he moves back into the starting lineup, then Julian Reese will likely revert to a rotational role off the bench.

  • Spurs' Mason Plumlee: Won't play Sunday

    Plumlee (reconditioning) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rockets.

    Plumlee is still ramping up his conditioning after undergoing right groin surgery in late December. His next opportunity to suit up will come Tuesday against the Celtics.

  • Jalen Duren C | DET

    Pistons' Jalen Duren: Good to go Saturday

    Duren (back) is available for Saturday's game against the Nets.

    Duren will shed his probable tag to suit up for the front end of this back-to-back set. The center is averaging 22.3 points and 12.7 rebounds over his last six contests.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Likely to play Sunday

    Powell is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Raptors due to right calf tightness.

    The calf issue is a new concern for Powell, though he's still likely to suit up Sunday. If Powell is cleared to play and Marvin Bagley (neck), who is listed as questionable, remains sidelined, the former would likely operate as Daniel Gafford's primary backup. Over four March appearances (one start), Powell has averaged 6.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.3 blocks in 20.5 minutes per game.

  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Off injury report

    Gafford (ankle) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against Toronto.

    Gafford sat out Friday's loss to Boston -- the second leg of a back-to-back set -- due to right ankle injury management. However, the big man is set to return to action Sunday. He has averaged 10.6 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.2 blocks in 21.2 minutes per contest over his last five appearances.
