Bagley contributed 13 points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), eight rebounds, five blocks and one assist across 26 minutes in Tuesday's 121-102 loss to the 76ers.

With Alex Sarr (thigh) sidelined, Bagley got the starting nod for a second consecutive game. The big man swatted a game- and season-high five shots, matching his career-best mark. The 26-year-old also finished as one of seven Washington players to score in double figures and tied for the team lead in rebounds. Bagley should remain in the first unit for as long as Sarr is sidelined and is a viable streaming option.

Tillman will come off the bench for Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Neemias Queta is back and starting, so Tillman will return to a reserve role after getting a spot start during Sunday's win in Cleveland. Tillman has not been a consistent part of the rotation this season, so it wouldn't be shocking to see him pick up a DNP-CD with Queta active.

Landale (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game against the Spurs.

Landale will shed his questionable tag due to left ankle soreness and suit up Tuesday. The big man has averaged 13.5 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 20.5 minutes per contest over his last four appearances off the bench.

Missi is out for Tuesday's game against Minnesota due to right foot and ankle soreness.

Missi's next opportunity to take the floor arrives during Thursday's meeting with the Timberwolves. Derik Queen should handle the lion's share of the center minutes Tuesday, with Kevon Looney likely to mix in off the bench a bit as the backup center.

Adams (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Kings.

The 32-year-old center is nursing right ankle tendinopathy. Houston tends to roll with a jumbo lineup, though it's possible Aaron Holiday would be the direct fantasy beneficiary of Adams' potential absence Wednesday if the Rockets opt to go a bit smaller.

Drummond (knee) is available and starting Tuesday against the Wizards.

The veteran big man will shake off his questionable tag due to a right knee contusion and enter the starting lineup with Joel Embiid (knee) sidelined. Over his last five starts, Drummond has averaged 7.4 points, 12.0 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in 24.6 minutes per contest.

Clingan (illness) is available for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.

The second-year big man will suit up after missing Sunday's loss to the Thunder due to an illness. With Clingan back in action, Kris Murray is expected to retreat to the second unit. Over his last five outings, Clingan has averaged 14.0 points, 12.2 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.2 blocks in 26.8 minutes per contest.

Lively (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Heat.

Lively will miss his sixth consecutive contest due to a right foot injury, and he can be considered doubtful ahead of Friday's game against the Thunder. With the third-year center remaining on the shelf, Daniel Gafford (ankle) should continue to see increased run if he's cleared to play.

Collins (wrist) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Nets.

Collins has yet to make his 2025-26 season debut, but that could change Wednesday after he went to the G League on Tuesday to practice. The Bulls have struggled mightily to protect the paint this season, so Collins' addition to the rotation would be a welcome sight. Jalen Smith (hamstring) is also questionable, so there could be plenty of minutes available behind Nikola Vucevic on Wednesday.

Gafford (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Miami.

The Mavericks could hold out Gafford for right ankle injury management. Dwight Powell would likely take on the backup center role behind Anthony Davis, who Dallas would need to lean more heavily on if Gafford is unavailable.
