Wizards' Tre Johnson: Iffy for Saturday

Kings' Malik Monk: Out for personal reasons
Monk is listed out for Friday's game against the Pelicans due to a personal matter.
The Kings initially listed Monk as questionable for the contest due to a sore right shoulder, but it's a personal issue that will ultimately keep him from playing Friday. His next chance to rejoin the Kings arrives Sunday, when Sacramento takes on the Clippers. Devin Carter and Nique Clifford should see enough playing time Friday to warrant streaming attention in all fantasy leagues.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Expected to play Sunday
Curry (knee) is expected to play Sunday against Houston, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
This has been the expectation for several days now. Curry has been scrimmaging with the Warriors at recent practices, and it sounds like his knee continues to respond well. If he does get the green light to play, it's fair to expect restrictions in his first game back.
