Coby White PG | CHA
Hornets' Coby White: Ruled out Tuesday
White (groin) is out for Tuesday's game in Boston.
White is dealing with some tightness in his left groin, so he'll be held out of Tuesday's game. His absence will likely open up minutes for Tre Mann and Sion James.

L.J. Cryer PG | GS
Warriors' LJ Cryer: Out Tuesday
Cryer (illness) won't play Tuesday against the Kings.
This will be Cryer's second straight game on the sidelines due to illness. His next chance to play will come Thursday versus the Lakers, which will be the first game of a back-to-back set.

Yves Missi C | NO
Pelicans' Yves Missi: Ruled out Tuesday
Missi (hand) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Jazz.
The second-year big man will miss his first game since Feb. 26 due to a right hand sprain, and his penultimate chance to play again this season will come Friday in Boston. Zion Williamson, Herbert Jones and Saddiq Bey will all dress but are not expected to play, so Derik Queen, Hunter Dickinson and Josh Oduro are likely to see increased playing time in the frontcourt.

Collin Murray-Boyles PF | TOR
Raptors' Collin Murray-Boyles: Good to go Tuesday
Murray-Boyles (quadriceps) has been upgraded to available for Tuesday's game against Miami.
The rookie first-rounder has been cleared to play after initially being listed as questionable due to a quadriceps injury. Murray-Boyles is worthy of streaming consideration in most fantasy leagues, as he's averaging 16.3 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 22.8 minutes per game over his last four appearances.

Saddiq Bey SF | NO
Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Not expected to play Tuesday
Head coach James Borrego said Bey will dress for Tuesday's game against the Jazz, but he doesn't expect him to play, Erin Summers of the Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network reports.
Derik Queen figures to see heavy minutes Tuesday evening with both Bey and Zion Williamson not expected to touch the court, so Queen is on the radar as a potential target in daily fantasy leagues. Bey's next chance to play will come Friday in Boston.

Sandro Mamukelashvili PF | TOR
Raptors' Sandro Mamukelashvili: Available Tuesday
Mamukelashvili (knee) has been upgraded to available for Tuesday's game against the Heat.
Mamukelashvili is good to go Tuesday, which effectively puts the Raptors at full strength. The big man is worth streaming in most fantasy leagues, as Mamukelashvili has averaged 14.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 2.3 three-pointers in 22.6 minutes per contest over his last seven games.
-
Herbert Jones SG | NO
Pelicans' Herbert Jones: Not expected to play Tuesday
Head coach James Borrego said that Jones will be in uniform for Tuesday's game against the Jazz, but he doesn't expect him to play, Erin Summers of the Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network reports.
Zion Williamson and Saddiq Bey are also expected to sit out Tuesday's game, which should result in big minutes for Derik Queen and Micah Peavy. It'll be interesting to see if Jones plays Friday in Boston.
-
Zion Williamson PF | NO
Pelicans' Zion Williamson: Unlikely to play Tuesday
Williamson will dress for Tuesday's game against Utah, though he's unlikely to play, Erin Summers of the Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network reports.
Williamson will be available versus the Jazz. However, he will likely only see action if necessary. With Herbert Jones and Saddiq Bey also not expected to see the floor, and Trey Murphy (ankle), Yves Missi (hand) and Dejounte Murray (hand) ruled out, Derik Queen and DeAndre Jordan are the favorites to enter the starting lineup.
-
Immanuel Quickley PG | TOR
Raptors' Immanuel Quickley: Upgraded to available
Quickley (foot) has been upgraded to available for Tuesday's game against the Heat.
Quickley is ready to return from an eight-game absence due to plantar fasciitis in his right foot, which means fewer minutes will be free at point guard for Jamal Shead and Ja'Kobe Walter. However, Quickley could face a slight minutes restriction in his return to the floor Tuesday.

Micah Potter PF | IND
Pacers' Micah Potter: Headed to bench
Potter will come off the bench for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Potter received a matchup-based start in Sunday's loss to the Cavs, but he'll head back to the second unit for Tuesday's game. As a reserve, Potter owns averages of 8.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.4 triples per contest.
