Sun Mar 1713:39Jimmy Butler Sidelined Versus DetroitJimmy ButlerSFBullsFree Agent
Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (foot) won't play on Sunday in the rematch with Detroit. Butler has been banged up all season, which is nothing unusual. While he's just as productive as ever, he'll miss his 20th game versus the Pistons. It appears there's a chance he'll be back in the lineup on Monday versus the 76ers, his former team. But with Tyler Herro (foot) out as well, Duncan Robinson, Jaime Jaquez Jr., and Terry Rozier should see more scoring chances. Of course, Bam Adebayo is the favorite to remain the team's No. 1 offensive contributor.

Sat Mar 1622:01James Harden Questionable SundayJames HardenSGThunderFree Agent
Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (shoulder) could miss a third consecutive game against the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday as he is listed as questionable. The 34-year-old has been dealing with a left shoulder strain. More information on Harden's availability should be known after the team's morning shootaround for fantasy managers who him rostered. Bones Hyland will likely see another start if Harden is unable to suit up.

LeBron JamesSFHeatFree Agent
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) and center Anthony Davis (Achilles) are both available ahead of Saturday's game against the Golden State Warriors. As expected, James and Davis will play after being on the injury report heading into this game. Both players are dealing with nagging injuries, but continue to play through them a majority of the time. The expectation is that James and Davis will have their normal workload on Saturday. Fantasy managers can go ahead and get him in their lineups.

Sat Mar 1619:36Stephen Curry Expected To PlayStephen CurryPGWarriorsFree Agent
Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) is expected to suit up for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers, according to head coach Steve Kerr. All signs are currently pointing to Curry returning to the court after missing the last three games due to a right ankle sprain. There is no word on Curry being limited so fantasy managers should expect the superstar guard to have his normal amount of minutes. Fantasy managers should check back ahead of tip-off for a final decision.

Sat Mar 1617:40Tobias Harris Ruled Out For SaturdayTobias HarrisSFBucksFree Agent
Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) won't take the court against Charlotte on Saturday. The team has downgraded Harris from questionable to out. The veteran forward comes out of the lineup for only the seventh time this season. Harris has had a couple of miserable outings lately, so having some time off might even benefit him. Nicolas Batum will offer some low-tier fantasy value as Harris' replacement in the starting five. The French veteran has posted 5.8 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 2.3 assists in a starting role this season.

Sat Mar 1614:11Taj Gibson Staying In DetroitTaj GibsonPFBullsFree Agent
Forward Taj Gibson is expected to sign a contract on Saturday to remain in Detroit for the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign. He was brought in on a 10-day contract after playing with the Knicks on the same agreement earlier in the season. However, the 38-year-old wasn't productive in New York, averaging 1.0 points and 1.8 rebounds. It hasn't been any better in Detroit, with Gibson failing to see the floor in his five games. With this in mind, the veteran hasn't offered anything to fantasy managers, and that's not expected to change anytime soon.

Sat Mar 1613:43Tobias Harris Misses Morning ShootaroundTobias HarrisSFBucksFree Agent
Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) didn't participate in shootaround on Saturday morning. He remains questionable heading into the meeting with Charlotte because of the ankle he tweaked in Thursday's loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. Philadelphia has 16 games left before the playoffs and currently holds a Play-In spot. However, with Joel Embiid (knee) potentially returning in April, the team needs everyone as healthy as possible for a deep postseason run. As a result, Harris could get the night off versus the 17-50 Hornets, meaning his next chance to suit up will be on Monday against the Miami Heat. But until the 31-year-old is back on the floor, Nicolas Batum would likely enter the starting lineup while also earning value consideration from DFS participants.

Sat Mar 1610:28LeBron James Questionable To Play SaturdayLeBron JamesSFHeatFree Agent
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's big clash with Golden State. The NBA's all-time leading scorer continues to carry a left ankle problem, but he's missed only a handful of games over the last couple of months. In the last game against Sacramento, James even logged 40 minutes. It's a high-stakes game on Saturday, and James should be eager to play in the contest to boost his team's chances of climbing the Western Conference standings.

Fri Mar 1522:57Stephen Curry Might Return Versus The LakersStephen CurryPGWarriorsFree Agent
Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's meeting with Los Angeles Lakers. He recently resumed practicing, which is a good sign. However, the 36-year-old, who missed the last three games because of a sprained ankle, likely has some hurdles to leap before being cleared to get back on the floor. With Golden State holding on to the last play-in spot, the team needs Curry back soon. But they won't rush him back before he's 100%. Nonetheless, if he remains sidelined versus the Lakers, Chris Paul, who is averaging 12.7 points, 7.4 assists, and 1.4 steals in 14 starts this season, would continue to handle most of the work at the 1.

Paul GeorgeSGPacersFree Agent
Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (back) and guard Paul George (knee) have been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. There was some uncertainty that the two superstars would sit given it's the second night of a back-to-back set. Despite that, both players are expected to suit up and play their normal roles on Friday. Fantasy managers should double check ahead of tip-off just in case there is a last second change to the lineup.

Fri Mar 1518:41James Harden Remains Out On FridayJames HardenSGThunderFree Agent
Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (shoulder) will sit out a second consecutive game on Friday against New Orleans. The former MVP has sustained a left shoulder strain, relinquishing his starter's spot to Bones Hyland. Hyland produced a nice 17-point, 11-assist double-double on Thursday versus Chicago, adding five rebounds and four steals. He should be a good streaming option again on Friday, although it's going to be a much more difficult matchup.

Fri Mar 1518:35Eric Gordon Returns To Suns Lineup FridayEric GordonSGNO HornetsFree Agent
Phoenix Suns guard/forward Eric Gordon (knee) will return from a two-game absence on Friday versus Charlotte. The veteran sniper has recovered from a left knee contusion. Gordon's addition boosts the quality of Phoenix's second unit, which remains without Josh Okogie (abdomen). The 2017 NBA Sixth Man of the Year has been in a shooting slump lately, but a meeting with a team that gives up 117.0 points per game and allows the opposition to make 13.4 threes a night will put Gordon in a good spot for a bounce-back performance.

Fri Mar 1516:06Tobias Harris Receives Questionable Tag For SaturdayTobias HarrisSFBucksFree Agent
Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) suffered a sprained ankle late in their game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday and is now considered questionable for Saturday night. The veteran wing planted awkwardly and fell in pain, but he was able to stay in the game and finish it out. The team will likely have him test out the ankle during shootaround and warmups before making a judgment on his game status. Over the past few games, Harris hasn't been shooting particularly well, and he's even disappeared to the tune of two points against the New York Knicks. If he has to miss any time, Buddy Hield would likely move into the starting five while Nicolas Batum and Kenyon Martin Jr. will see added minutes.

Fri Mar 1515:11James Harden Questionable Friday Against PelicansJames HardenSGThunderFree Agent
Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (shoulder) has received another questionable tag for their Friday night matchup with the New Orleans Pelicans. The former MVP was forced to miss the first half of their back-to-back on Thursday with a shoulder strain and he may be forced to miss a second consecutive contest. Since Russell Westbrook (hand) is also out, Terance Mann and Bones Hyland both joined the starting five against the Chicago Bulls. Hyland put together a double-double with 17 points and 11 assists while Mann couldn't find much of a shooting rhythm. If Harden has to miss another game, both Hyland and Mann can serve as solid streaming options.

Thu Mar 1420:18Kevin Love To Miss Eighth Consecutive GameKevin LovePFTimberwolvesFree Agent
Miami Heat forward/center Kevin Love (heel) hasn't traveled with the team to Detroit for Friday's matchup against the Pistons, missing an eighth consecutive game. The veteran is struggling to overcome a heel injury, which he picked up late last month. Love's absence has secured a regular starting role for Nikola Jovic, with Haywood Highsmith and Caleb Martin providing cover off the bench. The latter is the most attractive fantasy piece of the three, and Martin continues to see 30-plus minutes regularly despite his bench role.

Thu Mar 1418:59Eric Gordon Won't Play Against BostonEric GordonSGNO HornetsFree Agent
Phoenix Suns guard/forward Eric Gordon (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's big matchup against Boston. The team downgraded the veteran sniper from questionable to out. Gordon will be out of the lineup for a second consecutive game. His absence opens up extra minutes for Grayson Allen and Royce O'Neale. Both players can provide plenty of value for fantasy managers, although the latter has struggled in recent games, including against Boston last Saturday.

Thu Mar 1418:41Kawhi Leonard Will Play Against ChicagoKawhi LeonardSFSpursFree Agent
Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (back) will suit up on Thursday against Chicago. He exited Tuesday's loss to Minnesota, leaving the arena before the end of the first half. As a result, many had assumed he wouldn't be available on Thursday and possibly Friday's game in New Orleans. However, Leonard is good to go and can be added to all fantasy lineups. Unfortunately, his availability could mean less work for Amir Coffey, who was in line to get more involved on the scoring end.

Thu Mar 1418:40James Harden Ruled Out On ThursdayJames HardenSGThunderFree Agent
Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (shoulder) won't play on Thursday against the Bulls. He's been dealing with a shoulder strain for the last few games but has played through it. However, there's been talk of lightening his workload heading toward the postseason, so he'll finally get the night off. Fortunately for the Clippers, Kawhi Leonard (back) is active. Bones Hyland will also move into the starting lineup, making him an attractive streaming option in all fantasy setups. Hyland will also see plenty of attention in DFS contests.

Thu Mar 1409:52DeMar DeRozan Racks Up 46 Points Versus IndianaDeMar DeRozanSGRaptorsFree Agent
Chicago Bulls guard/forward DeMar DeRozan had a memorable night against Indiana on Wednesday. He produced one of the highest-scoring games of his career with a 46-point effort and helped the team to a 132-129 overtime victory. DeRozan's jump shot with 0.1 seconds remaining on the clock took the game past regulation, and the veteran star scored nine of Chicago's 15 points in the extra frame. He finished with 15-for-24 shooting from the field and made 15 of his 17 attempts at the free-throw line. DeRozan was only one rebound short of a double-double and collected three assists, two steals, and one block. The six-time All-Star has scored more points in a regular-season game just four times during his 15-year NBA career. Age hasn't yet fully caught up with DeRozan, as he's averaging 23.4 points, 4.3 rebounds, 5.3 assists, and 1.1 steals for the season.

Wed Mar 1320:36Eric Gordon Iffy On ThursdayEric GordonSGNO HornetsFree Agent
Phoenix Suns guard Eric Gordon (knee) has popped up on the injury report ahead of their Thursday night game against the Boston Celtics. He's been listed as questionable, so he's in danger of missing his second consecutive game. The veteran combo guard has been a quality fantasy option whenever one of the "big three" is missing. Devin Booker isn't on the report anymore though, so Gordon's value might not be at the highest it could be if he does play. If he's sidelined, however, Grayson Allen and Royce O'Neale will step up as the most important role players. Both of them have fantasy relevance, especially in deeper leagues.
