Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) will sit out a second consecutive game on Saturday against the Chicago Bulls. Drummond is battling a toe injury and has been in and out of the lineup recently. With Joel Embiid (knee) also on the shelf, Guerschon Yabusele will continue to do the heavy lifting at the center position, with Adem Bona logging time as his backup. Yabusele has averaged 10.5 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 2.4 assists in a starting role this season.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (illness) will jump back into the lineup for Saturday's clash against the Utah Jazz. An illness kept him sidelined for Friday's matchup versus the New Orleans Pelicans. Morant's shooting form has been shaky all month, but he has posted two double-doubles over his previous three appearances. He is in an excellent spot to deliver a big performance on Saturday, as Utah allows the second-most fantasy points per game to opposing point guard this season.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is ready to face Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors on Saturday night. Earlier in the day, the team downgraded James from probable to questionable, but Lakers head coach JJ Redick has told reporters that he is available for the matchup. James produced a 31-point double-double in his first meeting with the Warriors this season. He's on a run of three consecutive double-doubles leading up to Saturday's contest. The stretch includes James' ninth triple-double of the season.

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Ayo Dosunmu (calf) will play on Saturday against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was initially regarded as questionable for the game before Chicago upgraded Dosunmu to available. The Bulls will continue to be without Coby White (ankle), which means Dosunmu will have an opportunity to contribute more on the offensive end. The 25-year-old averages 12.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 4.6 assists for the season.

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (thumb) will play on Saturday versus the Knicks. The 27-year-old has missed three games this season. However, he'll avoid a fourth, at least for now. As expected, Fox has played well this season, averaging 25.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 1.6 steals. His three-point percentage is down. Still, Fox is usually reliable for fantasy managers, even with a challenging matchup on the horizon.

New York Knicks guard/forward Josh Hart (knee) will play in Saturday's matchup against the Sacramento Kings. Hart has been banged up lately, but he remains in the lineup, with the team upgrading him from questionable to available. In the last game against Brooklyn, Hart once again flirted with a triple-double. His scoring numbers have dipped in 2025, but Hart has made up for it in other areas. He is averaging 12.8 points, 12.3 rebounds, 5.8 assists, and 1.8 steals for January.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (calf) will end a four-game absence on Saturday against the Houston Rockets. He has finally shaken off a calf strain that Mobley sustained a couple of weeks back. Mobley recently put together a four-game double-double streak and is averaging 19.4 points and 9.1 rebounds for the month. His form gets a big test on Saturday, as the Rockets have the second-highest rebounding rate in the league and boast the third-best defensive rating.

Atlanta Hawks forward Larry Nance Jr. (hand) will play on Saturday versus the Raptors. The veteran hasn't played in nearly a month after undergoing surgery on his right hand. Under normal circumstances, Nance doesn't usually see much action. However, with Jalen Johnson (shoulder), De'Andre Hunter (illness), and Zaccharie Risacher (hamstring) sidelined, Nance could be more involved than initially planned. Still, David Roddy, who will likely start, should see plenty of minutes at the four, giving him streaming appeal for fantasy managers.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (wrist) will remain out on Saturday against the Houston Rockets, missing his fourth consecutive game. LeVert is dealing with a wrist sprain and was initially listed as questionable for the game. With LeVert sidelined and Dean Wade (knee) going down in Friday's matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers, Ty Jerome logged 33 minutes off the Cavaliers bench. He went off for a career-high 33 points on an incredible 8-for-8 three-point shooting. We can expect to see Jerome in a significant role again on Saturday.

Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (foot) will miss the second leg of a back-to-back on Saturday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Williams is managing a tendon injury in his right foot, and the team doesn't want to overwork him. Veteran Taj Gibson will move to the starting lineup to fill in for Williams. Gibson was a double-double threat at the peak of his powers, but he has made minimal impact even in a starting role this season. In previous eight appearances as a starter, Gibson has averaged 3.1 points and 4.3 rebounds in 14.3 minutes.

Charlotte Hornets guard Seth Curry (ankle) will suit up for Saturday's matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans. The veteran sharpshooter was in street clothes on Friday when Charlotte began a back-to-back set against the Portland Trail Blazers. Curry provides outside shooting and serves as a backup for the guard positions, but he doesn't contribute much in fantasy basketball. Throughout the season, Curry has averaged 5.3 points in 13.4 minutes with 44.4 percent shooting from three-point range.

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (hamstring) will play on Saturday against the Raptors. The former Oklahoma Sooner is usually listed on the injury report because of a nagging Achilles issue. However, hamstring tightness was the culprit heading into Saturday night. The Hawks are in trouble, with Jalen Johnson (shoulder), Zaccharie Risacher (hamstring), and De'Andre Hunter (illness) all sidelined. But those injuries could at least open the door for more production from Young, who has averaged 22.9 points and 11.7 assists this season.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges (back) will rejoin the action on Saturday against the New Orleans Pelicans. The 26-year-old is dealing with a back issue and didn't play on Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Bridges is enjoying a strong month, having notched 20-plus points in six of eight games. He is in a great position to add to the streak on Saturday, as New Orleans has the third-worst defensive rating in the league. Bridges will reclaim his starting position from Cody Martin (core), who is unavailable on Saturday. Josh Okogie will log fewer minutes due to Bridges' return.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (illness) won't play against the Raptors on Saturday. He was listed as questionable because of an illness. Unfortunately, the 27-year-old won't suit up for this one. With Jalen Johnson (shoulder) and Zaccharie Risacher (hamstring) on the shelf, Dyson Daniels and Trae Young (hamstring) should lead the way on the scoring end. Fantasy managers also shouldn't rule out above-average production from Vit Krejci, David Roddy, and Larry Nance Jr. (hand).

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) will play in Saturday's rematch with the Raptors. The veteran didn't suit up when the Hawks and Raptors met on Thursday because of right knee soreness, his first absence of the 2024-25 campaign. But after carrying a questionable designation, he's good to go. Capela was recently bumped from the starting lineup in favor of Onyeka Okongwu. However, with Jalen Johnson (shoulder), De'Andre Hunter (illness), and Zaccharie Risacher (hamstring) sidelined, Capela could see more minutes than usual from off the bench.

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Zion Williamson (illness) will return to action on Saturday against the Charlotte Hornets. The enigmatic star has been in and out of the Pelicans lineup, with his last appearance coming on Jan. 17. Williamson has taken the court just 10 times this season. However, he has been in top form when available, averaging 21.9 points, 8.2 rebounds, 5.4 assists, 1.2 blocks, and 1.2 steals in 28.9 minutes. Williamson will spearhead the team alongside CJ McCollum and Trey Murphy III, with Dejounte Murray (finger) sidelined on Saturday.

Charlotte Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball (wrist) will play on Saturday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Ball missed the first leg of a back-to-back on Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers due to a wrist injury. However, he has been upgraded from probable to available ahead of Saturday's game. Ball's return sends Vasilije Micic back to the bench. Micic put up 12 points with three assists on Friday, but he generally struggles to make an impact as a member of the second unit.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (finger) won't play on Saturday against Charlotte. The former Hawk missed over a month to begin the 2024-25 campaign because of a left hand injury. However, according to head coach Willie Green, Murray will get X-rays on his right hand. For now, he's ruled out with a sprained right index finger. While that injury could keep the 28-year-old off the floor, fantasy managers are hoping the injury isn't more severe. In the meantime, Jose Alvarado and Jordan Hawkins will likely see a bump in fantasy production.

Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (illness) will play on Saturday against the Pistons. The 24-year-old had been starting in place of Jalen Suggs (back). However, Anthony missed the last two games because of an illness, opening the door for Anthony Black to get a crack at the starting lineup. But with Suggs back in the equation and starting, Anthony will head back to the bench. Although Suggs should be limited in his first appearance after missing the last 10 games, Anthony's fantasy potential is much lower.

Orlando Magic center Goga Bitadze (concussion protocol) won't play on Saturday against Detroit. The 25-year-old exited the January 12 meeting with the Philadelphia 76ers because of a hip injury. However, he also developed concussion-like symptoms, keeping him off the floor for Orlando's previous five games. Bitadze was questionable, so it appears he could be close to returning. But for now, Wendell Carter Jr., averaging 8.6 points and 7.9 rebounds in 24 starts this season, will fill Bitadze's spot in the rotation.
