Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Friday's matchup against Memphis. He's back on the injury report with a left ankle issue after recently battling an illness. James missed Sunday's game against Minnesota due to the illness but came back with an impressive 33-point, 11-assist double-double on Tuesday versus Golden State. The questionable tag has been more like a probable designation for James all season, and the chances appear high that he will play against the Grizzlies. Memphis has done little to slow down James in 2023-24, as the NBA's all-time leading scorer has notched 23.7 points, 9.3 rebounds, 8.3 assists, and 2.3 steals across three head-to-head clashes.

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Kyle Lowry (knee) is considered questionable for Friday's battle with the Magic. He's in danger of missing a third consecutive game due to a left knee effusion. The veteran has logged 8.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 4.6 assists in 28.8 minutes since joining his hometown team. The trio of Cameron Payne, Buddy Hield, and De'Anthony Melton should take care of his minutes on Friday if Lowry can't return. Hield has the most fantasy upside of the three, but he's blown hot and cold in Philadelphia.

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (knee) will play against the Knicks on Thursday. A problem with his left patella initially left Holiday questionable for the game, but he's been upgraded to available. With Boston bringing all of its guns out on Thursday, Holiday will likely have to play second fiddle. However, he must be in high spirits after just securing a four-year, $135 million contract extension for himself, and this should help his performance. The 33-year-old is averaging 9.6 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 4.0 assists for the month.

Boston Celtics center Al Horford (toe) is available to play in Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. The first-place Celtics tend to list Horford with a sprained left big toe on back-to-back sets, so look for the veteran big man to be unavailable for Friday's tilt against the dismal Charlotte Hornets. With Kristaps Porzingis' (hamstring) status remaining uncertain for Thursday's contest, Horford could be in for start at center in Boston's first unit and a considerable bump in DFS rostership if KP is inactive. In 19 games without Porzingis this season, Horford is logging 11.6 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 2.4 three-pointers, and 1.8 combined steals plus blocks per contest. With that said, the Knicks are giving up the second-fewest DraftKings points to opposing centers this year.

Los Angeles Clippers guard Russell Westbrook (hand) won't play on Wednesday in the rematch with Phoenix. The 35-year-old had a triple-double when these clubs met on Tuesday night. However, Westbrook will join Paul George (knee), James Harden (foot), and Kawhi Leonard (knee) on the shelf for this one. As a result, Ivica Zubac, Amir Coffey, Terance Mann, Bones Hyland, and Norman Powell could easily surpass their usual DFS expectations.

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) is questionable for Thursday's meeting with the Knicks. This injury has bothered him for at least a few weeks, and with the C's coasting to the postseason, he could get another night off to rest. With Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) and Xavier Tillman Sr. (knee) also on the injury report, Luke Kornet may get more work than he can handle at the five. Of course, more minutes are never a bad thing concerning Kornet's DFS potential.

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, guard Jrue Holiday (knee) and the Celtics agreed to a four-year, $135 million extension. The 33-year-old was traded to the Celtics before the 2023-24 campaign after spending his last three seasons with the Bucks. Although his scoring numbers have dropped significantly since last season, he remains one of the most capable defenders in the National Basketball Association. While retaining Holiday will help keep Boston competitive moving ahead, it also opens up some much-needed cap space. Unfortunately, Holiday is no longer a consistent fantasy asset, and his durability over the years has also been an issue. Still, his upside is still higher than most, and it should stay that way for at least a few more seasons.

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Paul George (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's rematch with the Suns. He had 23 points across 39 minutes on Tuesday against Phoenix but sits out the second leg of a back-to-back with a sore left knee. George's absence opens the door for Amir Coffey to enter the starting unit. Coffey has averaged 11.3 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.6 assists in 27.5 minutes across 11 previous starts this season. He played well at both ends on Tuesday and could be a good fantasy selection again for Wednesday.

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (foot) will miss a second consecutive contest on Wednesday against Phoenix. The former MVP is dealing with right foot inflammation as the regular season is starting to draw to a close. Harden's absence allowed Russell Westbrook to shine with a triple-double against the Suns on Tuesday. However, he might also be out for the rematch after the Clippers listed him as questionable ahead of Wednesday's game. Bones Hyland should be next in line to take over the baton, with Xavier Moon possibly also getting meaningful minutes on Wednesday.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James recorded his second consecutive double-double in Tuesday's big game against Golden State, leading all scorers with 33 points and handing out a game-high 11 assists in a 134-120 loss. James was back in action after missing one game with an illness. It looks like he wasn't fully recovered on Tuesday either, as James arrived at the Crypto.com Arena just an hour before tipoff. However, he was able to put in a 36-minute shift, completing his line with seven rebounds and two steals. The veteran star will now get some extra rest, with the Lakers off until Friday. There are two more crucial games coming up for the team against Memphis and New Orleans.

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (foot) won't play on Tuesday versus Phoenix. He has been dealing with a sore right foot and didn't participate in shootaround on Tuesday. With Kawhi Leonard (knee) also sidelined, Paul George will be a popular DFS option. At the same time, Norman Powell, Russell Westbrook, and Ivica Zubac should get more involved offensively.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (illness) will play on Tuesday against Golden State. He wasn't available for Sunday's loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves because of Flu-like symptoms. However, after carrying a questionable designation heading into this one, he feels well enough to suit up. With Anthony Davis (eye, illness) sidelined, James could be in line for a big night versus the Warriors, so he'll see plenty of attention from the DFS community.

Philadelphia 76ers point guards Tyrese Maxey (hip) and Kyle Lowry (knee) won't play against the Pistons on Tuesday. The latter misses a second consecutive game, while Maxey will be sidelined after putting in a massive 54-minute shift in the last game against San Antonio. Cameron Payne looks set for his second consecutive start and will get a big boost from the backcourt absentees. The 29-year-old has averaged 12.9 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 3.8 assists as a member of the first unit in 2023-24.

Boston Celtics centers Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) and Al Horford (toe) are both out for Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. The first-place Celtics will give their two top big men the night off on Tuesday, with their next opportunities to take the court arriving in Thursday's battle with the New York Knicks. Porzingis is simply having his right hamstring managed, and Horford is nursing a sprained left big toe. With that said, Luke Kornet has averaged 10.0 points, 9.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 2.4 blocks in 30.1 minutes over five games as a member of Boston's starting lineup this season and would figure to join the first unit at the five in this one. Kornet should be a chalky DFS value play despite a matchup with a Bucks club allowing the eighth-fewest DraftKings points to opposing centers.

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (foot) did not warm up with the team during morning shootaround ahead of Tuesday's showdown with the Phoenix Suns. It places some doubt on Harden's status for the first leg of LA's back-to-back set with the Suns after he was dealing with a sore right foot leading into Sunday's narrow home win over the visiting Cleveland Cavaliers. If the 34-year-old All-Star ends up missing Tuesday's game, the Clippers' offense would center around Paul George with Kawhi Leonard (knee) already ruled out. Although Phoenix is allowing the sixth-fewest DraftKings points to opposing small forwards, PG-13 would be tough to fade in DFS while averaging 25.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.5 steals, and 3.6 three-pointers over his last 14 appearances.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
