NBA Player News

Zubac (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

Zubac has played in each of the past three contests but is listed as questionable due to a left ankle sprain that previously sidelined him for 15 games. If he's unable to play, Jay Huff figures to slot into the starting center role and log heavier minutes in the post.

Nesmith (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

The Pacers are deciding whether or not to hold Nesmith out for the first half of their back-to-back set. Depending on who's available for the Pacers on Tuesday, Kobe Brown could be thrust into a significant role in the frontcourt.

Cryer (hamstring) is out for Monday's game against the Wizards.

Cryer has appeared in six straight games for Golden State but will sit out Monday with a left hamstring issue. Pat Spencer and Gary Payton could pick up a few extra minutes with Cryer sidelined.

Salaun (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Heat.

Salaun will miss his seventh consecutive contest due to a left calf strain. His next chance to play will come Thursday against the Magic.

Siakam is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Knicks with a right knee sprain.

Siakam is expected to miss a fifth consecutive contest Tuesday. In the star forward's absence, Jarace Walker should continue to start at power forward for the Pacers and is worth rostering in the majority of fantasy formats.

Brunson (ankle, neck) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Pacers.

The Knicks are considering giving the banged-up Brunson the night off versus an inferior opponent due to right-ankle injury management and a cervical strain. New York's offense would likely run through Karl-Anthony Towns on Tuesday if Brunson sits out, while Jose Alvarado and Landry Shamet would be the top candidates to join the starting lineup in this case.

Kuminga (knee) is available for Monday's game against Orlando, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

Kuminga will shed the questionable tag and suit up for Monday's home contest after a left knee injury sidelined him for four of the previous five games. In four appearances (one start) with Atlanta, the forward is averaging 16.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.3 steals in 24.8 minutes per contest.

Newell was recalled to the Hawks from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Monday.

Newell will return to the NBA club after presumably logging a few practices with College Park. He's appeared in one game for Atlanta since Feb. 11 but should be available if needed Monday night against Orlando.

Larsson is probable for Tuesday's game against the Hornets with a bruised left elbow.

The Heat are likely to check back with Larsson to see how he's feeling closer to Tuesday's tipoff. He's scored in double figures in six consecutive games, keeping Larsson on the streaming radar in most fantasy settings, especially while Andrew Wiggins (toe) remains out.

Jovic (back) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Hornets.

Jovic is on the verge of ending nearly a month-long absence due to lower-back injury management. With Andrew Wiggins (toe) sidelined, Jovic could play a minor role off the bench in his expected return.
