Mon Apr 8 | 23:30 | Al Horford Questionable For Tuesday | Al Horford | C | Hawks | Free Agent |
Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks because of a left big toe sprain. Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring/rest) is also listed as questionable. However, the rest of the Celtics roster will be available on Tuesday. If both big men are unable to suit up, Luke Kornet, Oshae Brissett, and Xavier Tillman will likely see more minutes on the court. |

Mon Apr 8 | 23:14 | Kyle Lowry Questionable Versus Detroit On Tuesday | Kyle Lowry | PG | Raptors | Free Agent |
Due to a left knee effusion, Philadelphia 76ers guard Kyle Lowry (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Detroit Pistons. Lowry sat out Sunday's meeting with the Spurs to rest. The 38-year-old has averaged 9.1 points and 4.0 assists in 28.4 minutes per game in his last seven outings. However, if he can't suit up, his absence should have little impact on DFS participants. |

Mon Apr 8 | 23:03 | Khris Middleton Probable For Tuesday Evening | Khris Middleton | SF | Pistons | Free Agent |
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (quadriceps) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Celtics. His presence on the injury report isn't anything DFS managers aren't used to at this point. However, although the veteran might be on the floor versus Boston, there's a chance he won't suit in Wednesday's encounter with Orlando, especially since he took a shot to the face in Sunday's loss to the Knicks. Nonetheless, the 32-year-old scored at least 21 points in two of his last three appearances. But if Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) is ruled out, Middleton's ceiling could increase significantly. |

Mon Apr 8 | 22:56 | Evan Fournier Probable For Tuesday Against Philadelphia | Evan Fournier | SG | Nuggets | Free Agent |
Detroit Pistons shooting guard Evan Fournier (knee) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Fournier didn't suit up for Saturday's contest against the New Jersey Nets due to a sore right knee. Over his last 10 outings, the 31-year-old French sharpshooter has averaged 4.6 points in 19.0 minutes per game. His return won't boost the Pistons, who have lost 12 of 13 games going into Tuesday. |

Mon Apr 8 | 21:46 | Kawhi Leonard Not Playing On Tuesday | Kawhi Leonard | SF | Spurs | Free Agent |
Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) will not suit up for Tuesday's game versus the Phoenix Suns. This will be his fifth straight game that he will be sidelined because of right knee inflammation. Leonard being on the injury report is nothing new, and as the playoffs approach, Clippers fans and fantasy managers can only hope this is not a serious injury. While he sits out, Los Angeles will likely lean on Norman Powell, Terance Mann, and Amir Coffey to take on more prominent roles. |

Mon Apr 8 | 21:38 | Stephen Curry Expected To Play On Tuesday | Stephen Curry | PG | Warriors | Free Agent |
Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (rest) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The veteran guard received a rest night on Sunday but appears to be refreshed and ready to go on Tuesday. Curry has been removed from the injury report which means he's expected to suit up. His return to the lineup will shift Chris Paul to the bench where he won't have as much streaming value. |

Mon Apr 8 | 21:32 | Anthony Davis Questionable For Tuesday | Anthony Davis | PF | NO Hornets | Free Agent |
Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (eye) is considered questionable for Tuesday's contest versus the Golden State Warriors. The superstar only played 12 minutes in Sunday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves because he suffered a left eye injury and could not return. Earlier reports sounded encouraging about his ability to suit up, but fantasy managers will want to check back before tip-off on Tuesday to confirm his status. The Lakers might be without LeBron James (illness), so having Davis on the court is vital for their success if they hope to move up the Western Conference standings before the regular season ends. |

Mon Apr 8 | 21:20 | LeBron James Considered Questionable For Tuesday | LeBron James | PF | Heat | Free Agent |
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The 39-year-old missed Sunday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves because of flu-like symptoms. He could end up missing another contest if he is still under the weather, and his status will need to be monitored on game day. Anthony Davis (eye) is also considered questionable, and if both superstars are sidelined, the Lakers' depth would be tested. If James is unable to play, Spencer Dinwiddie would likely benefit, as he recorded 18 points, seven assists, and five rebounds in Sunday's game. Taurean Prince and Cam Reddish would also likely play a bigger role. |

Mon Apr 8 | 20:32 | Giannis Antetokounmpo Uncertain For Tuesday Night | Giannis Antetokounmpo | F | Bucks | Free Agent |
Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) is questionable for Tuesday's clash with the Boston Celtics. The multi-time MVP has been in and out of the lineup over the last few weeks because of left hamstring tendinopathy. However, he was on the floor for Sunday's loss to the Knicks and finished with 28 points, 15 rebounds, eight assists, and two blocks. With Milwaukee in danger of sliding down the Eastern Conference standings, Antetokounmpo will likely suit up for the must-win contest. But if he can't play, Khris Middleton (quad) and Damian Lillard will be locks for all DFS lineups. Bobby Portis could also see a surge in fantasy production if Antetokounmpo isn't available. |

Mon Apr 8 | 20:25 | Tobias Harris Questionable Against Detroit | Tobias Harris | SF | Magic | Free Agent |
Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (knee) is questionable heading into Tuesday's game against the Pistons. The veteran has missed the Sixers' last three games because of a knee injury. But with a relatively easy matchup on the horizon, Harris could get another night off in preparation for the postseason. With Joel Embiid (knee) and Tyrese Maxey (hip) also on the injury report, Kelly Oubre Jr., Buddy Hield, and Paul Reed may find themselves as the top offensive options versus the 13-win Pistons. |

Mon Apr 8 | 09:26 | Khris Middleton Limited To 13 Minutes On Sunday | Khris Middleton | SF | Pistons | Free Agent |
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton played only 13 minutes against the Knicks on Sunday, exiting the contest after getting hit in the mouth. The Bucks star took an inadvertent hit to the mouth area from New York's Donte DiVincenzo in the second quarter. Bucks head coach Doc Rivers said postgame that Middleton got a tooth knocked out in the incident. While this wasn't a serious trauma, fantasy managers will still need to monitor Middleton's status closely ahead of Tuesday's matchup against Boston. Bobby Portis would be a guy to target if Middleton can't play, with Jae Crowder his likeliest replacement in the starting unit. |

Mon Apr 8 | 09:19 | Draymond Green Makes Early Exit With Back Injury | Draymond Green | PF | Warriors | Free Agent |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green didn't finish Sunday's contest against Utah due to an apparent back injury. He spent only 21 minutes on the court, contributing three points, three rebounds, three assists, two steals, and one block. Golden State returns to action on Tuesday against the Lakers, and it's unclear if Green will be in the lineup. Jonathan Kuminga, who returned to action with a nice 21-point, 10-rebound double-double on Sunday, would benefit from Green's absence. There might be a few extra minutes of playing time coming in Trayce Jackson-Davis' direction as well. |

Mon Apr 8 | 09:11 | Anthony Davis Could Be Available On Tuesday | Anthony Davis | PF | NO Hornets | Free Agent |
According to ESPN's Dave McMenamin, there is "optimism" that Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (eye) can play on Tuesday versus Golden State. The Lakers star aggravated a left eye injury in Sunday's matchup against Minnesota, exiting after logging only 12 minutes. He was inadvertently hit in the face by Timberwolves forward Kyle Anderson near the end of the first quarter. Jaxson Hayes had a good game with 19 points and 10 rebounds as Davis' fill-in in the center position, but he will have to settle for a bench role again on Tuesday if Davis is cleared to play. |

Sun Apr 7 | 20:06 | LeBron James Out Against Minnesota | LeBron James | PF | Heat | Free Agent |
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (illness) won't play on Sunday versus the Minnesota Timberwolves. He was questionable heading into this one. However, he has Flu-like symptoms, so he'll sit out on Sunday evening. But the Lakers are a lock to at least make the Play-In, meaning the team can afford to give James a night off to rest. Without him, Anthony Davis (knee) could see an uptick in production. But if Davis doesn't suit up, D'Angelo Russell, Austin Reaves, Rui Hachimura, and Spencer Dinwiddie should all lead the way on the scoring end. |

Sun Apr 7 | 18:49 | Tobias Harris Ruled Out Against San Antonio | Tobias Harris | SF | Magic | Free Agent |
Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (knee) is out on Sunday against the Spurs. He has a knee contusion, so his next chance to play will be Tuesday in Detroit. But with Joel Embiid (knee) also sidelined, Tyrese Maxey (hip) and Kelly Oubre Jr. should consume most of Philly's offensive opportunities. |

Sun Apr 7 | 18:44 | Giannis Antetokounmpo Cleared For Sunday Night | Giannis Antetokounmpo | F | Bucks | Free Agent |
Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) will play on Sunday against the Knicks. He didn't suit up for Milwaukee's previous contest against the Toronto Raptors due to his nagging hamstring issue. But the Bucks need every win they can get to keep a grasp on the No. 2 spot in the Eastern conference, so the multi-time MVP will be on the floor for a pivotal matchup with New York. Antetokounmpo's return will likely send Jae Crowder back to the bench, nearly eliminating all of his DFS upside. But as far as Antetokounmpo is concerned, he's averaged nearly a triple-double versus the Knicks this season, so he's worth rostering in all DFS contests. |

Sun Apr 7 | 17:31 | Dennis Schroder Good To Go On Sunday | Dennis Schroder | G | Hawks | Free Agent |
Brooklyn Nets guard Dennis Schroder (Achilles) will suit up for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He was listed as questionable heading into this one, and with Brooklyn not going anywhere near the postseason, there was a chance he'd be sidelined. However, Dennis Smith Jr. (hip) is now doubtful, so Schroder is a lock for all fantasy lineups. |

Sun Apr 7 | 17:04 | Kyle Lowry Resting On Sunday | Kyle Lowry | PG | Raptors | Free Agent |
Philadelphia 76ers guard Kyle Lowry will sit out Sunday's meeting with the Spurs to rest. The 38-year-old has averaged 8.4 points and 4.6 assists in 21 games with Philly this season. However, his absence shouldn't have much of an impact on DFS participants. With that said, without Lowry on the floor, Cameron Payne should get more minutes, so he's worth considering for all DFS lineups, even more so if Tyrese Maxey (hip) doesn't suit up. |

Sun Apr 7 | 13:23 | Stephen Curry Resting On Sunday | Stephen Curry | PG | Warriors | Free Agent |
Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry won't play on Sunday against Utah. He scored 28 points in 35 minutes in Friday's two-point loss to Dallas, so he will get a night off against the 29-48 Utah Jazz. With Jonathan Kuminga (knee) and Andrew Wiggins (ankle) questionable, Klay Thompson, Chris Paul, and Moses Moody could be the players to benefit the most without Curry on the floor. |

Sat Apr 6 | 22:01 | Kawhi Leonard Still Out On Sunday | Kawhi Leonard | SF | Spurs | Free Agent |
Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) won't suit up for Sunday's meeting with Cleveland. There were reports that this was expected to happen, so the update isn't surprising. But now that the veteran is sidelined for a fourth consecutive contest, there is a growing cause for concern regarding his knee injury. At any rate, Paul George and James Harden should remain the Clippers' top offensive contributors while Leonard is on the shelf. At the same time, Norman Powell, Russell Westbrook, Ivica Zubac, and Amir Coffey could also benefit. |
