Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (groin) has been listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies while he's dealing with right groin soreness. Gobert's health has been shaky over the last few weeks as he's left a couple of games early and missed a few games in the process. While Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) remains out, the team would likely roll Gobert out there as long as his pain isn't too bad. Naz Reid would be the best streaming option if Gobert can't play while Luka Garza may see some added time off of the bench.

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving continued his scoring heroics while Kevin Durant (knee) remains sidelined. During their loss to the Detroit Pistons on Thursday, Irving registered 40 points, five rebounds, six assists, two steals, and two blocks on 14-for-27 shooting from the floor and 6-for-12 from beyond the arc. With the absence of their number one scorer and no real third option, Irving's value is at a season-high while he tries to do everything in his power to win some games. Finding a streaming option on this team is difficult as it always seems like it's someone different who finally has a decent game alongside Irving.

Los Angeles Clippers guard Paul George went wild in the team's blowout win over the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday night. The 32-year-old finished the game with 35 points, four rebounds, seven assists, three steals, and one block while shooting 14-for-19 overall, 5-for-8 from deep, and 2-for-3 from the charity stripe. This was George's first game of 30 or more points since late December and one of his most efficient shooting nights of the season.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Marcus Morris Sr. (rib) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He suffered a rib contusion during Tuesday's game, so it appears he's still recovering from that. In the meantime, Nicolas Batum will likely be asked to move into the starting five on Thursday. He won't have great streaming appeal with Kawhi Leonard and Paul George both active for Thursday's game. Possibly, deep league managers might want to take a chance on Batum, but his ceiling is going to be limited.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (back) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Houston Rockets. The veteran forward was a late addition to the injury report due to back spasms. The Cavs will take the cautious approach here and give Love the night off. His absence should free up additional playing time for Lamar Stevens and Dean Wade in the rotation. Neither player is an ideal streaming option and might only be worth a look in deep leagues. Honestly, Cedi Osman might end up benefiting the most with Donovan Mitchell (groin) on the sideline as well.

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is available for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran forward was considered questionable heading into this game due to a strained left hamstring. The Hornets will be back in full force with LaMelo Ball (ankle, wrist), Terry Rozier (illness), and Hayward all available for this game. That being said, Dennis Smith Jr., Bryce McGowens, and Jalen McDaniels will all see their roles decreased with the Hornets getting healthy.

Detroit Pistons guard Cory Joseph (back) won't play Thursday versus Brooklyn. The veteran made a good 18-minute cameo Monday versus Milwaukee with five points, three rebounds and seven assists, but he's had a very small role on the team throughout the campaign and Joseph's absence shouldn't have any effect on things. The Pistons have Killian Hayes (shoulder) back on Thursday and he will dictate the proceeding from the backcourt.

Chicago Bulls guard Goran Dragic (conditioning) has been ruled out for Thursday's matchup against Charlotte. He is working his way back from a non-COVID illness and needs to put in more work on his condition before being ready for action. Dragic has missed the past two games, giving Coby White a chance to play a bigger role in the rotation. The 22-year-old is currently having his best stretch of the season and could be a useful piece for managers in deep leagues. Across the last six games, White has been getting 12.5 points with 3.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.5 steals.

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis returned on Wednesday night to the tune of a double-double and a victory over the San Antonio Spurs. He ended the game with 21 points, 12 rebounds, one assist, one steal, and four blocks while shooting 7-for-15. The Lakers missed his presence on both sides of the ball as was evident by his ability to score and block shots in just 26 minutes off of the bench. As long as he's in the lineup, the Lakers have a really good chance to make the playoffs and maybe surprise some people.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard went absolutely crazy on Wednesday night en route to a 10-point win over the Utah Jazz. The superstar out of Weber State was just one point shy of his career-high for points in a single game. He ended the game with 60 points on a super-efficient 21-for-29 shooting line and 9-for-15 from beyond the arc. On top of that, Lillard chipped in seven rebounds, eight assists, and three steals. The Blazers are still committed to building around Lillard, so he will remain a top fantasy option as long as he's the offense's focal point.

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable even though his injury designation has changed from hamstring soreness to a strained hamstring. As of right now, he's already played in less than half of the team's games and keeps seeing new injuries pop up every week. Fantasy managers shouldn't count on him playing and can shift their attention to Bryce McGowens as a streaming option. Maybe keep an eye on the injury updates as tipoff approaches, but rolling with Hayward in a fantasy lineup is more than risky at this point.

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (foot) has been cleared to play against the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday. The superstar center is finally ready to return after missing time due to a fractured bone spur and stress reaction in his right foot. The Lakers are going to be extremely cautious with their big man. It doesn't sound like Davis is going to start and he'll be heavily restricted. That being said, Wenyen Gabriel and Thomas Bryant should continue seeing the bulk of the playing time at center. They should continue to have streaming appeal until Davis gets back to full speed.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. There was some concern that James would sit out because it's the second leg of a back-to-back set. The veteran forward played 33 minutes on Tuesday, but is good to go here. That being said, James should have his normal workload on Wednesday. He'll continue to be the focal point on offense with Anthony Davis still coming off the bench. Fantasy managers should double check their lineups and make sure James is in there.

Denver Nuggets guards Jamal Murray (knee) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (wrist) will sit out Wednesday against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Nuggets are sitting most of their starters Wednesday as they are in the second night of a back-to-back set of games. Both Murray and Caldwell-Pope are likely getting the day off and have not experienced any setbacks in their respective injuries. Bruce Brown, Christian Braun and Bones Hyland should all see increased minutes on Wednesday.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard did a little bit of everything as they took down the Los Angeles Lakers by a score of 133-115 on Tuesday night. The 31-year-old posted 25 points, nine rebounds, three assists, two steals, and two blocks while shooting an efficient 11-for-16 from the floor. Since Leonard has returned to the court on a more regular basis, he's returned to the level of play that everyone was hoping for. Fantasy managers that took a risky draft pick on him should be ecstatic lately.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James posted his fourth 40-point game since turning 38 years old despite taking a 115-133 loss to their rivals inside the same stadium. The King finished the game with 46 points, eight rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and one block on 16-for-29 shooting from the floor, 9-for-14 from beyond the arc, and a perfect 5-for-5 from the line. James has been otherworldly since his birthday as he's averaging 36.1 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 7.8 assists per game in that 11-game stretch.

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (foot) was originally set to be re-evaluated on Wednesday morning, but now it seems as though the expectation is that he will be back in the lineup on a minutes restriction barring any unforeseen setbacks. Reports have said he will likely only play around 20-to-24 minutes in his first few games back, so fantasy managers might want to be cautious with deploying him into lineups at first.

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (groin) is questionable for Wednesday's contest against the New Orleans Pelicans. The 30-year-old missed three games because of a groin injury before returning on Monday versus the Houston Rockets, finishing with 16 rebounds, 15 points, and four blocks. However, with Minnesota drawing a back-to-back after the meeting with the Pels, Gobert may get a night off. If that's the case, Naz Reid, who's averaged 15.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.3 steals, and 1.4 blocks in seven starts this season, would likely move back into the starting lineup.

Memphis Grizzlies center Steven Adams (knee) is expected to be sidelined three-to-five weeks. The veteran has missed the last two games with knee soreness. However, his condition is much worse, as he was diagnosed with a PCL sprain. Adams has played well this season, averaging a career-high 11.5 rebounds to go along with 8.6 points and 1.1 blocks. But with the 29-year-old now on the shelf, Brandon Clarke and Xavier Tillman Sr. should split time in the middle. That said, Clarke may have a slight edge in terms of fantasy potential, but that could change in favor of Tillman relatively soon.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is available to play Tuesday night against the Los Angeles Clippers. James has been dealing with ankle soreness for the better part of a couple weeks now, but has not missed time due to the injury despite being listed as questionable most nights. James figures to slide into his normal role and may be getting help soon with Anthony Davis (foot) set to be re-evaluated on Wednesday. Over the past month without Davis, James has averaged 34.2 points, 9.1 rebounds and 7.3 assists in 36 minutes per game.
