Towns notched 12 points (5-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 28 minutes during Sunday's 114-89 win over the Spurs.

The Knicks handled business early, resulting in a lower workload for Towns. Despite this dud, Towns has been very solid in recent games. Over his last six appearances, he's producing top-25 value in nine-category fantasy formats with 19.5 points, 10.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.8 three-pointers.

Barlow finished with 14 points (4-7 FG, 6-8 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and three steals over 28 minutes during Sunday's 114-98 loss to the Celtics.

As long as Paul George remains suspended, Barlow appears to be locked into the starting position at power forward. However, the fourth-year forward is averaging just 7.7 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 0.9 blocks in 27.0 minutes per game over his last seven outings, so he's not seeing a lot of usage in the first unit.

Fox ended with seven points (3-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt), three rebounds and six assists in 31 minutes during Sunday's 114-89 loss to the Knicks.

Fox is in the midst of a cold spell for the Spurs. Over his last six outings, he's shooting 45.7 percent from the field and 54.5 percent from the line with averages of 14.0 points, 5.5 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.3 three-pointers in 28.2 minutes per contest. In that span, he ranks well outside the top-200 players in nine-category fantasy formats.

Huff finished with 14 points (5-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds and three blocks in 28 minutes during Sunday's 125-106 loss to Memphis.

Huff's role has fluctuated in 2025-26, but he's settling back into a starting spot. The journeyman big man has started seven straight contests, averaging 11.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.9 blocks, 1.7 assists and 1.1 three-pointers in 24.8 minutes per game while shooting 52.6 percent from the floor.

Jackson accumulated 11 points (4-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and three blocks over 20 minutes during Sunday's 125-106 victory over the Pacers.

It looks like a youth movement is just about underway for Memphis, with Jackson being one of the main fantasy beneficiaries. The third-year forward has started 10 of his 11 games following the Jaren Jackson (knee) trade, during which GG has averaged 16.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.2 blocks in 26.0 minutes per tilt while shooting 54.8 percent from the field.

Wells provided 18 points (8-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and two steals across 21 minutes during Sunday's 125-106 win over the Pacers.

Wells continues to start for Memphis, but he hasn't played at least 30 minutes in a game since Dec. 30. The second-year swingman has averaged 14.4 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.1 steals in 24.7 minutes per tilt in his last eight games, shooting 53.7 percent from the floor.

Antetokounmpo (calf) is officially listed as questionable but is expected to play Monday against the Celtics, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

After missing the past five weeks while recovering from his second right calf strain of the season, Antetokounmpo looks like he'll get the green light to play in the second leg of Milwaukee's back-to-back set. The 26-33 Bucks currently sit three games behind the Hornets for the 10th spot in the Eastern Conference, but the return of Antetokounmpo should bolster Milwaukee's chances of securing a spot in the Play-In Tournament. Given how long Antetokounmpo has been sidelined, expect his minutes to be monitored carefully Monday, and perhaps over the next few contests thereafter.

George (knee) is good to go for Monday's game against the Rockets.

George will shake off his questionable tag for the front end of this back-to-back set. His status for Tuesday against Orlando could be up in the air if the Wizards contemplate a maintenance day.

Vukcevic (thigh) will not play Monday against the Rockets.

Vukcevic was unable to shake his questionable tag and will miss the first leg of this back-to-back set. The Wizards will be very thin up front, so Anthony Gill (illness) could see a big workload if he's able to shake his questionable tag.

Mitchell (shoulder) was able to practice Monday, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Mitchell suffered a left shoulder contusion in Saturday's win over the Rockets, and that's notable because he battled a left shoulder injury earlier this season. It sounds like he's day-to-day, and his status for Tuesday's game versus Brooklyn will be established Monday afternoon or evening when the team releases its injury report.
