Miami Heat forward/center Kevin Love (heel) is nearing a return and has been listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Warriors. The veteran has missed 13 games on the bounce with a right heel injury, last appearing for Miami on Feb. 27. Love will likely push Thomas Bryant near the end of the bench again, and Nikola Jovic and Haywood Highsmith might also lose a few minutes. The five-time All-Star doesn't play a lot these days, but Love has been effective when on the court, averaging 9.0 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 2.2 assists in 17.5 minutes.

Los Angeles Clippers point guard Russell Westbrook (hand) is available Monday, three weeks after having hand surgery. The former MVP was recovering from a fractured hand suffered on March 1st in a matchup against Washington. Westbrook has been one of the most productive bench players in the league this season, putting up 11.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 4.4 assists. While Westbrook was out, the Clippers posted a 6-6 record. In his return against the Pacers, the 35-year-old shouldn't face any minute restrictions.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is doubtful for Tuesday's game in Milwaukee. The Lakers will begin their six-game road trip. However, the club is expected to be without the multi-time MVP. The ankle injury has bothered him all year, so he could be getting a night off ahead of Wednesday's matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies. Anthony Davis (Achilles), who is probable, should pick up most of the slack on the offensive end if James is officially sidelined on Tuesday. But D'Angelo Russell and Austin Reaves will also warrant extra attention from DFS participants.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has officially been upgraded from questionable to active on Monday night and will suit up against the Indiana Pacers. The King will make his sixth consecutive start despite the ankle issue he continues to deal with each night. After D'Angelo Russell got the late scratch from the lineup, James' playmaking and ball-handling will be even more important. This should turn into another big night for James and Anthony Davis as they try to remain in the playoff race and avoid the play-in tournament. James is a must-start candidate in all fantasy formats.

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) remains out on Monday versus Atlanta. He'll now miss a fifth consecutive game. However, the C's have a firm hold on the No. 1 spot in the Eastern Conference, so there's no point in rushing Holiday back. With Derrick White (hand) questionable, Payton Pritchard will see an uptick in attention from fantasy managers even if he doesn't start, especially after amassing 15 points and eight assists in Sunday's win over the Bulls. Sam Hauser, coming off a 23-point effort versus Chicago, will also be an ideal DFS value option.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Kyle Lowry won't play in Sunday's game against the Clippers. He logged 32 minutes in Friday's loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. But the 37-year-old isn't getting any younger, so he'll get the afternoon off before presumably returning for Monday's clash with the Sacramento Kings. But without Lowry in the mix, Nicolas Batum, averaging 5.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 2.2 assists in 33 starts during the 2023-24 campaign, may roll with the first five, giving DFS managers a value option.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The superstar forward has been dealing with an ankle issue for what seems like months now. However, James normally plays through the issue, but fantasy managers should check back for another update ahead of tip-off. His absence would likely result in more playing time for Spencer Dinwiddie and Taurean Prince. Between the two, Dinwiddie is the better streaming option if James sits out.

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) will play on Saturday against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran sat out Friday's win over the Detroit Pistons. But in all fairness, the Celtics didn't need him. Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) will get the night off to rest after logging 26 minutes on Friday, so Horford will slide into the starting lineup. The 37-year-old has averaged 10.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.0 blocks in 28 starts this season, meaning he has an excellent chance to crush his DFS value.

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) is regarded as questionable for Saturday's matchup against Chicago. He's strained his left big toe and might be absent for a second consecutive contest. Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) has already been ruled out for Saturday's game, meaning Boston will be desperate to have Horford available. If he can't go, it should be full steam ahead for Luke Kornet and Xavier Tillman Sr., the backup bigs off the bench, to play a significantly more important role than they usually do. It's going to be a tough challenge, however, with Chicago rolling out Nikola Vucevic and Andre Drummond at the center position.

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) won't play against Chicago on Saturday. The veteran sits out a fourth consecutive game. With Holiday missing, Payton Pritchard has strung together a nice run of good performances and should contribute well again on Saturday in a good matchup. The Bulls struggle to guard the three-point line, giving up the second-most three-point makes in the league, putting Pritchard in a great position to do damage from deep, along with the rest of the C's.

Los Angeles Clippers point guard Russell Westbrook (hand) is expected to be back in the lineup next week. Sources have told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that Westbrook's return might even come as soon as Monday versus Indiana. The former MVP is recovering from a fractured hand suffered on March 1 in a matchup against Washington. Westbrook has been one of the most productive bench players in the league this season, putting up 11.1 points with 5.1 rebounds and 4.4 assists. There could be fireworks from Westbrook straight away in his first game back, as Indiana games are usually played at a very high pace and tend to be high-scoring affairs.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Lakers. After missing three consecutive contests, Philadelphia will be happy to have Harris back, especially since Joel Embiid (knee) is expected to miss more time. Nicolas Batum will likely not start with the 31-year-old suiting up. If Harris's minutes are limited in the contest, Tyrese Maxey and Kelly Oubre Jr. should do most of the heavy lifting on the offensive end.

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) will miss Friday's game against the Pistons due to a toe sprain and could also miss Saturday's contest in the Windy City. Jayson Tatum (ankle) will also be out of the lineup with a right ankle injury. Sam Hauser (ankle) is available. He and Luke Kornet could see more time on the court against the worst team in the NBA. If that's the case, Kornet and Hauser could see plenty of attention from fantasy managers.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) picked up another questionable tag on Friday and his status will be updated closer to tip-off against the Philadelphia 76ers. The King has been on the injury report more often than not, especially with the ankle issues that he's been dealing with for a while now. If he's able to play, a big night should be in store against the short-handed Sixers who could also be without Tobias Harris (ankle). If James has to watch from the sidelines, however, Rui Hachimura would be the best streaming option even though Spencer Dinwiddie and Taurean Prince would see some added opportunities as well.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Lakers. The veteran most recently had the same injury designation before Wednesday's loss to Phoenix. Unfortunately, he wasn't available. The Sixers are trying to climb out of a Play-In spot, so they need Harris back in the lineup as soon as possible, especially since Joel Embiid (knee) is expected to miss more time. But Philly won't rush him back, either, considering he'll be needed for the team to make a deep postseason push. Nonetheless, if Harris misses his fourth consecutive game, Nicolas Batum will presumably stay in the starting lineup. However, Tyrese Maxey and Kelly Oubre Jr. should do most of the heavy lifting on the offensive end.

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) is questionable heading into Friday's game against the Pistons. He has a toe sprain. That said, with Boston taking on the worst team in the National Basketball Association, the veteran may get the night off. There's a chance he could also miss Saturday's contest in Chicago. But with Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) and Jayson Tatum (ankle) on the injury report for Friday, Sam Hauser (ankle), who is probable, and Luke Kornet may slide into the starting lineup. If that's the case, Kornet and Hauser will see a surge in attention from fantasy managers, especially those looking for value options.

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) won't play on Friday versus Detroit. The veteran will miss his third consecutive contest because of an AC joint sprain, and there's a chance he won't suit up for Saturday's game in Chicago. With Jaylen Brown (ankle), Jayson Tatum (ankle), and Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) questionable, Derrick White could see a substantial bump in fantasy production, assuming Detroit can keep the game relatively close. Payton Pritchard, coming off a 19-point effort in Wednesday's win over the Milwaukee Bucks, would likely enter the starting lineup, ultimately giving him more value for DFS lineups.

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Wesley Matthews (illness) is a question mark ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Suns. The veteran sniper is feeling under the weather and might not be able to play. With the team battling the injury bug, Matthews has started a couple of games lately, and Jalen Johnson's (ankle) injury has made him a candidate to move into the first unit again on Thursday. Garrison Mathews and Vit Krejci should take care of most of Matthews' minutes if he can't play on Thursday. They are not recommended fantasy targets.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) remains out for Wednesday's game against Phoenix. The 31-year-old has averaged 17.1 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 1.1 steals this season, all up from the 2022-23 campaign. But he'll miss his third-straight contest, so his next chance to suit up will be on Friday against the Lakers. At any rate, Tyrese Maxey should see a significant uptick in scoring opportunities with Harris off the floor. But guys like Nicolas Batum, Kelly Oubre Jr., and Buddy Hield should also benefit.

Detroit Pistons Forward Taj Gibson (hamstring) is unavailable for Wednesday's contest with the Indiana Pacers. Gibson has been suffering from right hamstring soreness. He's been playing on a 10-day contract after having the same agreement earlier in the season with the New York Knicks. On Monday, the veteran forward registered just three points, two rebounds, and one steal in 11 minutes of playing time. If the 38-year-old did play Wednesday, he wouldn't be a factor in fantasy play.
