Jaden McDaniels SF | MIN
Timberwolves' Jaden McDaniels: Limited to 16 minutes
McDaniels recorded two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and one assist across 16 minutes during Sunday's 116-103 loss to Oklahoma City.
McDaniels picked up four quick fouls Sunday, limiting his overall workload. He shot the ball really well in his previous two outings and eclipsed 30 minutes in each of those games, so his fantasy managers can chalk Sunday's outing up as an off day.

Quinten Post C | GS
Warriors' Quinten Post: Listed as questionable
Post is questionable for Monday's game against the Wizards due to right foot injury management.
After he posted a career-high 22 points (9-16 FG, 4-10 3Pt) and three blocks over 35 minutes during Sunday's 110-107 loss to the Knicks, the Warriors are thinking about holding Post out for the second leg of this back-to-back set. Draymond Green (back), who's expected to play Monday, and Kristaps Porzingis would be in line to share the center minutes if Post joins Al Horford (calf) on the sidelines.

De'Anthony Melton SG | GS
Warriors' De'Anthony Melton: Removed from injury report
Melton (knee) is off the injury report for Monday's game against the Wizards.
After sitting out Sunday's loss to the Knicks, Melton is good to go for the second part of this back-to-back. The 27-year-old is worth deploying in most fantasy leagues, as Melton has averaged 17.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.4 steals and 2.4 three-pointers in 25.4 minutes per game over his last nine contests.

Draymond Green PF | GS
Warriors' Draymond Green: Listed as probable
Green (back) is probable for Monday's game against the Wizards.
Green is on track to return from a two-game absence after battling a nagging back issue. Across his last five appearances, the veteran has averaged 9.6 points, 6.8 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 32.0 minutes per contest.

Kristaps Porzingis C | GS
Warriors' Kristaps Porzingis: Absent from injury report
Porzingis (illness) is off the injury report for Monday's game against the Wizards.
Porzingis is ready to play during the second half of this back-to-back set while the Warriors continue to manage his workload. Over his first four appearances for Golden State, the star big man has averaged 14.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.8 blocks in 20.8 minutes per game.

L.J. Cryer PG | GS
Warriors' LJ Cryer: Iffy for Monday
Cryer (hamstring) is questionable for Monday's game against Washington.
Cryer may be held out of the second leg of this back-to-back set for injury management. With De'Anthony Melton back in action, Cryer may not be very involved if he gets the green light to suit up.

Vit Krejci SF | POR
Trail Blazers' Vit Krejci: Unlikely to play Monday
Krejci is listed doubtful for Monday's game against the Nets due to a left calf contusion.
Krejci is a minor rotation player for Portland who is averaging 13.3 minutes per game over his last three appearances, so his expected absence Monday won't carry many fantasy implications. If Krejci ends up sitting out, a spot in the rotation could reopen for Kris Murray, who didn't play in a coach's decision in Sunday's 109-103 loss to the 76ers.

Robert Williams III C | POR
Trail Blazers' Robert Williams: Questionable for Monday
Williams (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against Brooklyn.
Williams returned from a one-game absence Sunday against the 76ers and finished with six points, 12 rebounds and three blocks in 20 minutes. He may be held out for injury maintenance Monday, and if that happens, Sidy Cissoko could become more involved for Portland.
