Kispert had 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt), one rebound and one assist in 16 minutes during Monday's 146-107 win over the Grizzlies.

Kispert remains a difficult fantasy player to roster due to his lack of contributions elsewhere in the box score. The swingman has averaged only 7.8 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.8 three-pointers in 14.0 minutes per contest over his last six games, shooting a poor 25.0 percent from downtown during this span.

Johnson provided 12 points (5-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 26 minutes during Monday's 134-99 loss to the Trail Blazers.

With the Nets riding out the final stretch of a losing season, Johnson is beginning to make his way onto the streaming radar in deep fantasy leagues. Across his last six contests, Johnson has averaged 9.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.7 blocks in 23.9 minutes per game while shooting 48.6 percent from the field.

Murray ended with 16 points (6-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and five assists across 30 minutes during Monday's 134-99 victory over the Nets.

The absence of Jerami Grant (foot) opened the door to more playing time for Murray, who took advantage of the opportunity by tying a season best in points and setting a season high in dimes. However, Murray is likely to revert to a lesser role once Grant is healthy, which could drop Murray's minutes back under the 20s.

Henderson notched 13 points (4-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists and four steals across 24 minutes during Monday's 134-99 win over Brooklyn.

The four swipes were a season high for Henderson, who continues to be an effective sixth man for the Trail Blazers. Over his last nine contests, the third-year guard has averaged 15.9 points, 3.2 assists, 2.8 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 2.4 three-pointers in 24.6 minutes per game while shooting 47.8 percent from downtown.

Caruso racked up four points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists over 16 minutes during Monday's 123-103 victory over the 76ers.

Caruso saw a very modest workload in the win, as the Thunder deployed a deep rotation. With Jared McCain finding his groove, it's hard to imagine Caruso emerging as anything more than a deep-league fantasy asset.

Joe supplied nine points (3-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and two steals over 19 minutes during Monday's 123-103 victory over Philadelphia.

With the Thunder back at full strength, minutes may be hard to come by most nights for Joe. He's been well outside the top 200 in nine-category formats over his last six games, posting averages of 9.7 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 2.2 three-pointers in 21.3 minutes per contest during that span.

Hayes is out for Tuesday's game against the Hornets due to left foot soreness.

After exiting Sunday's win over the Nets early, Hayes needs to miss at least one contest due to the foot issue. Russell Westbrook (foot) is also sidelined Tuesday, leaving the Kings with Devin Carter as their lone traditional point guard.

Plowden (foot) is good to go for Tuesday's game against the Hornets.

Plowden will shed his probable tag to suit up for this contest. With Precious Achiuwa (back) and Nique Clifford (foot) out, Plowden could see a sizable role against Charlotte.

Achiuwa (back) is out for Tuesday's game against the Hornets.

Achiuwa was unable to shake his questionable tag for this contest. With Achiuwa missing his first game since Feb. 4, the Kings could rely more on Doug McDermott and Daeqwon Plowden.

Portland assigned Hansen to the G League's Rip City Remix on Tuesday.

Hansen logged nine minutes at the NBA level Monday against Brooklyn, finishing with four points and three rebounds. He'll continue to see the bulk of his minutes with Rip City in the short term.
