  • Warriors' Kristaps Porzingis: Iffy for Tuesday

    Porzingis (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Kings.

    Porzingis is in danger of sitting out Tuesday due to right knee soreness. Draymond Green would be in line for a larger share of the center minutes if Porzingis cannot play, with Charles Bassey handling the backup role in this case.

  • Jaxson Hayes C | LAL

    Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Standout showing off bench

    Hayes had 23 points (8-10 FG, 7-8 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 27 minutes during Sunday's 134-128 loss to the Mavericks.

    Despite coming off the bench, Hayes ended up playing 27 minutes, logging eight more minutes than Deandre Ayton's on Sunday. Hayes looks like a quality streaming option at center for the final week of the fantasy season, averaging 14.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.9 blocks and 0.9 steals in 24.2 minutes per tilt over his last seven games.

  • Jakob Poeltl C | TOR

    Raptors' Jakob Poeltl: Limited to 20 minutes

    Poeltl registered 14 points (7-9 FG) and two rebounds across 20 minutes during Sunday's 115-101 loss to the Celtics.

    Poeltl had four fouls on the night which kept his minutes in check. He's been pretty solid over his last seven games, during which he has averaged 13.1 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.0 steals in 24.4 minutes per contest.

  • Mavericks' Marvin Bagley: Scores nine points in return

    Bagley (shoulder) ended with nine points (4-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt), four rebounds, one block and one steal in 21 minutes during Sunday's 134-128 victory over the Lakers.

    Bagley returned to action Sunday after missing the Mavericks' previous three games due to a left shoulder impingement. Though he worked as a backup to Daniel Gafford in his return, Bagley could move into the starting five Tuesday against the Clippers after Gafford was unable to return to Sunday's game after going down with a shoulder injury of his own.

  • Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Good to go Monday

    Allen (knee) is available for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

    Allen is no longer on the injury report after sitting out the front end of this back-to-back set Sunday. He could see more usage Monday with several key players absent.

  • Cavaliers' Thomas Bryant: Will not play Monday

    Bryant (calf) is out for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

    Bryant is likely getting a maintenance day for the second leg of this back-to-back set. During Sunday's 117-108 win over the Pacers, he finished with 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two assists and one block across 26 minutes.

  • Yves Missi C | NO

    Pelicans' Yves Missi: Terrific line in loss

    Missi amassed 18 points (8-9 FG, 2-4 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists and four blocks over 40 minutes during Sunday's 112-108 loss to Orlando.

    Missi recorded his fifth double-double of the season in the loss Sunday. He's fared well in 14 starts this season, posting averages of 7.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.9 blocks on 60.6 percent shooting from the field.

  • Kings' Dylan Cardwell: Career-best performance Sunday

    Cardwell closed with 15 points (7-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt), eight rebounds, two assists, four blocks and two steals over 27 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 138-109 loss to the Clippers.

    The rookie center set a new career scoring high in the rout as the Kings went to their bench early and often, while recording multiple blocks for the third time in the last four contests. Cardwell has had a steady role in the frontcourt rotation since returning from an ankle injury in mid-March, and over the last 12 games, he's averaging 5.1 points, 7.1 boards, 1.9 assists and 1.2 blocks in 18.4 minutes while shooting 56.0 percent from the floor.

  • Kings' Maxime Raynaud: Double-double against Clippers

    Raynaud notched 11 points (5-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 15 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 33 minutes during Sunday's 138-109 loss to the Clippers.

    It was the 18th double-double of the season for Raynaud, who continues to be productive in a Kings frontcourt missing Domantas Sabonis (knee), Keegan Murray (ankle) and others. The rookie center's 15 boards represented his best showing on the glass since he pulled down 19 against the pelicans on Feb. 9, and he's scored in double digits in nine of the last 10 games, averaging 18.6 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 threes and 1.1 combined steals and blocks over that span while shooting 56.3 percent from the floor and 44.4 percent (8-from-18) from downtown.

  • Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Hits game-winning layup

    Sengun finished with 24 points (10-19 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and two blocks in 37 minutes during Sunday's 117-116 victory over Golden State.

    Sengun gave the Rockets the lead for good with a driving layup in the final seconds. Although the big man is getting a lot of help from Jabari Smith, Sengun continues to post fantasy-worthy totals on a squad that has no shortage of fantasy production. Most recently, Sengun's assist totals have been a hallmark of his game. He's averaged a surprising 6.9 assists over the past 11 games.
