Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.comreports that Los Angeles Lakers forwardJarred Vanderbilt (foot)won't play Tuesday against the Philadelphia 76ers. After recovering from surgery on both feet, the 25-year-old has suited up for two games this season. He's played under 15 minutes per game and is likely resting for the second half of a back-to-back set. His next opportunity to play comes on Thursday against the Washington Wizards.

Houston Rockets guard/forward Amen Thompson stuffed the stat sheet in Monday's 114-112 victory over the Boston Celtics, recording a career-high 33 points along with nine rebounds, four assists, one steal, and one block. He capped off his big night by hitting the game-winning shot with 1.1 seconds left on the clock in the fourth quarter. It was a very efficient 33-point performance from Thompson, as he shot 13-for-19 from the field with a 1-for-2 record from downtown. Thompson's fantasy value has increased significantly since he became a regular in the starting lineup. He averages 18.3 points, 10.9 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.7 blocks, and 2.0 steals per game as a starter this season.

Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis remained in triple-double mood in Monday's matchup against the Brooklyn Nets, finishing a 110-96 victory with 21 points, 22 rebounds, and 10 assists. Sabonis, who shot 8-for-10 from the field Monday, has now posted triple-doubles in back-to-back outings for the first time this season. He boasts seven triple-doubles for the campaign, tying him for the third-most in the league, behind LeBron James (9) and Nikola Jokic (21). In his next outing, Sabonis has a chance to extend his triple-double streak to three games against a Joel Embiid-less Philadelphia 76ers team. He last managed more than two triple-doubles on the bounce in February 2024.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic posted his 21st triple-double of the season in Monday's 129-121 loss to the Chicago Bulls. He led all scorers with 33 points on 15-for-21 shooting, dished out a game-high 14 assists, and was also the best rebounder in the game with 12 boards. Jokic added a steal and a block to his tally on the defensive end. The three-time MVP continues to toy with the opposition on most nights and looks ready to start another triple-double streak after a five-game run ended for him on Saturday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. In the next matchup, he will go up against Karl-Anthony Towns and the New York Knicks. Towns managed to outshine Jokic in this season's first head-to-head clash, as the Nuggets superstar settled for 22 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists in a blowout loss.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) will remain sidelined for Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He has yet to feature this season due to a right ankle injury, and it remains unclear when Thybulle will be ready to hit the court. The two-time NBA All-Defensive Second Team member would give a boost to Portland's struggling defense, but Thybulle is not a good fantasy asset. The 27-year-old has averaged 4.8 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 1.5 steals for his NBA career.

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Zach LaVine (personal) is expected to miss some time. Following Monday's impressive victory over the Denver Nuggets, Bulls head coach Billy Donovan told reporters LaVine will be out for "a few games." He has left the team for personal reasons. K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Sports Network has noted that LaVine's wife is close to having their third child. LaVine's absence might open the door for Patrick Williams to return to the starting lineup. His streak of 20 consecutive starts came to an end on Monday, but Williams played well off the bench. He bagged 11 points with eight rebounds, three assists, and one steal.

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (ankle) is considered doubtful for Wednesday's matchup against the Boston Celtics. He missed a fourth straight game on Monday versus the Denver Nuggets. However, Bulls head coach Billy Donovan has said he expects White to rejoin the action before the conclusion of the team's upcoming three-game road trip, meaning the talented guard should not be out for much longer. Following Wednesday's stop in Boston, the Bulls head to Toronto for Friday night and face the Pistons in Detroit on Sunday. Zach LaVine (personal) looks set to miss at least a couple of these games, so Lonzo Ball, Josh Giddey, and Ayo Dosunmu have crucial roles to play in Chicago's backcourt.

Denver's C Nikola Jokic recorded a triple-double, finishing with 33 points, 14 assists and 12 rebounds in a 121-129 loss to Chicago on Monday, Jan. 27.

Kings' F Domantas Sabonis recorded a triple-double, finishing with 21 points, 10 assists and 22 rebounds in a 110-96 win over Brooklyn on Monday, Jan. 27.

Houston Rockets' G Dillon Brooks scored 36 points on 13-of-23 shooting in a 114-112 win over Boston on Monday, Jan. 27. Brooks is owned in only 18.2% leagues.

Lakers' F Anthony Davis recorded a double-double, scoring 42 points and grabbing 23 rebounds in a 112-107 win over Charlotte on Monday, Jan. 27.

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (ankle) won't play on Monday and will miss the next two games before being re-evaluated sometime next week. That means, Johnson's next chance to get back on the court will be against the Houston Rockets next Tuesday. It's uncertain if Johnson will be under a minutes limit once he's cleared to play. Jalen Wilson and Tyrese Martin should continue seeing increased roles in the rotation over the next week. Wilson has been hit-or-miss, but is worth a look as a possible streaming option while Johnson is out.

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. The former No. 1 pick has been sidelined for three games with a knee sprain. Donovan Clingan and Robert Williams III have shared the center duties with Ayton unavailable. Clingan has been the preferred option in the starting lineup, but Williams III outplayed him in Sunday's loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The former Celtic has recorded double-digit rebounds in back-to-back outings. Clingan entered Sunday with a four-game run of double-digit rebounds but grabbed just six boards against the Thunder and finished scoreless.

Brooklyn Nets forward Trendon Watford (hamstring) is reportedly trending in the right direction and could return to the court this week. The 24-year-old has been sidelined since mid-December due to a left hamstring strain. The Nets are considering Watford as day-to-day, which means he could return to the court on Wednesday or Saturday. He has missed over 20 games in a row, so fantasy managers should expect Watford to have a significant minutes limit when he does return. Once back to full speed, Watford could offer some low-end streaming value, but for now he's just worth monitoring.

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) is scheduled for a re-evaluation in two weeks. Kuminga has been out since Jan. 4 with an ankle sprain, but the team announced that he is making "good progress." Golden State expects Kuminga to begin light on-court individual workouts in the next week. Based on the update, Kuminga will miss at least eight more games. Moses Moody has taken on a larger role during Kuminga's absence. He has averaged 9.8 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 2.0 assists in 23.6 minutes since Kuminga exited the lineup. Moody has scored in double digits in each of his last six appearances.

Milwaukee Bucks guard AJ Green (quad) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. Green is now set to miss his fourth game in a row due to a lingering quad injury. The Bucks are playing the front end of a back-to-back set, so his next chance to play will be versus the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday. The absence of Green should mean that Gary Trent Jr., Ryan Rollins, and possibly Andre Jackson Jr. would see bigger roles in the rotation. Out of the trio, Trent has been the most consistent fantasy option over the last few games.

Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (calf) will not play on Tuesday against the Utah Jazz but is nearing a return to action. The team has labeled Green as day-to-day as he continues to work his way back from a calf strain. The veteran will miss a fifth consecutive game on Tuesday. Considering Green has yet to practice with the team, it's safe to assume he also won't be available for Wednesday's meeting with the Oklahoma City Thunder. After the back-to-back set, Golden State will return to action on Friday against the Phoenix Suns.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is available ahead of Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. As expected, Antetokounmpo will play after being listed as probable on the injury report. The 30-year-old has basically been on the injury report all season long, but he continues to play through the knee issue. Antetokounmpo has been excellent lately with 34 points or more in three of his last four games coming into this one. This will be a favorable matchup for Antetokounmpo, so fantasy managers better make sure to get him active in their lineups.

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Guerschon Yabusele (knee) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Frenchman is currently dealing with swelling in his right knee, but the probable tag suggests that Yabusele will be able to take the court on Tuesday. The 29-year-old has had a good comeback campaign in the NBA this season, averaging 10.3 points and 5.5 rebounds. He is currently operating as the team's starting center with Joel Embiid (knee) and Andre Drummond (toe) on the shelf. If Yabusele suffers a setback and joins Embiid and Drummond on the sidelines, Adem Bona and Pete Nance will split the center minutes.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard will see an increase in playing time ahead of Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns, according to head coach Ty Lue. Leonard has played 24 minutes in each of his last four games. That being said, the Clippers feel that Leonard is ready for a slightly heavier workload now. It seems unlikely that Leonard would jump into the 30-minutes mark, so around 26-28 range seems likely. Fantasy managers should get a slight boost in fantasy value from Leonard in this one.
