Horford (calf) won't suit up for Monday's game against Dallas.

Horford was injured during a March 13 loss to the Timberwolves, and he's been unavailable for the Dubs' last five contests. The big man is due to be re-evaluated in coming days, although that doesn't mean he's close to returning. Kristaps Porzingis (back) is listed as probable for Monday's contest, and assuming he's available, he's expected to go a long way toward filling the void created by Horford's absence. Draymond Green and Gui Santos could also continue to see additional opportunities in the frontcourt.

Porzingis (back) is probable heading into Monday's game against Dallas.

Porzingis was injured in Friday's game against Detroit and didn't suit up for Saturday's 126-110 loss to Atlanta. With Al Horford (calf) and Quinten Post (foot) both sidelined, Porzingis will likely find himself back in the starting lineup if he's cleared to get back on the court. The 30-year-old has struggled from a production standpoint since arriving in Golden State, averaging 14.9 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.0 blocks and 0.9 steals in 20.3 minutes per contest (seven games).

Post has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Mavericks due to right foot injury management.

Post has been working through a right foot issue as of late and will miss his fifth game since March 7, with his next chance to play being Wednesday against the Nets. He played 14 minutes in Saturday's loss to the Hawks, and those minutes should be absorbed by Kristaps Porzingis (back), the latter of whom is listed as probable for Monday's game.

Sarr has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Knicks due to left big toe capsulitis.

Sarr has been able to play through inflammation in his left big toe in each of the Wizards' last two games, but he will sit for the second leg of the team's back-to-back set after playing 22 minutes in Saturday's 132-111 loss to the Thunder. Tristan Vukcevic, Anthony Gill and Julian Reese should all see a bump in minutes Sunday due to Sarr's absence. Sarr's next chance to play is Wednesday against the Jazz.

Sims totaled five points (1-1 FG, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds and three assists over 25 minutes during Saturday's 108-105 victory over the Suns.

Sims dominated the glass, hauling in a game-high 11 rebounds off the bench. Milwaukee is dealing with injuries to multiple players, meaning Sims has been thrust into a meaningful role, albeit typically off the bench. With that said, his offensive upside is basically non-existent, meaning he should be considered a rebounds streamer only.

Ware registered one rebound across five minutes during Saturday's 123-122 loss to Houston.

Ware barely saw the court, logging just five minutes Saturday. For those still holding Ware, this could be the final nail in the coffin when it comes to his fantasy value. Despite the clear upside, his role is seemingly impossible to predict at this point. Even with multiple injuries to other players, Ware hasn't been able to solidify a consistent spot in the rotation. With that said, he should be better than this on most nights, at least keeping him on the radar in standard leagues.

Biyombo had four points (2-2 FG) and one rebound in four minutes during Saturday's 134-119 victory over Indiana.

Biyombo touched the floor for just the second time in the past seven games, albeit for four minutes during garbage time. At this point in his career, Biyombo would need to garner extensive playing time to have any chance of putting up fantasy value. Even those in deeper formats can safely ignore him.

Hayes finished Saturday's 105-104 victory over the Magic with eight points (3-3 FG, 2-6 FT), seven rebounds and three blocks across 19 minutes.

Despite fairly lackluster play from Deandre Ayton overall recently, Hayes doesn't appear to be making a serious case for more playing time. Hayes has averaged 4.2 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.0 block in 16.7 minutes per contest in his last six games, shooting a weak 40.0 percent from the field during this span.

Missi finished with six points (3-7 FG), 10 rebounds, three assists, three blocks and one steal in 24 minutes during Saturday's 111-106 loss to the Cavaliers.

Despite coming off the bench, Missi paced the Pelicans in boards Saturday. The second-year center has hauled in double-digit rebounds in four of his last six games, during which Missi has averaged 6.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.5 blocks in 23.8 minutes per tilt while shooting 53.6 percent from the floor.

Bryant provided 11 points (5-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one block in 15 minutes during Saturday's 111-106 win over New Orleans.

While Bryant did manage to score in double digits for the fourth time in his past six games, he hasn't quite been able to muster much fantasy relevance despite the absence of Jarrett Allen (knee). Over his last eight contests, Bryant has averaged 8.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, 0.6 blocks and 1.1 three-pointers in 15.0 minutes per game while shooting 50.0 percent from the field.
