Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (glute)could return on Sunday afternoon when the Kings visit the Bulls. Fox was also listed as questionable for Friday's game in Boston and even went through shootaround before being ruled out before tipoff. He has missed three straight games for Sacramento, but the Kings have kept right on winning, emerging victorious in six straight to start 2025. While Fox has been out, Domantas Sabonis and Malik Monk have carried the load while Keon Ellis has continued to start alongside Keegan Murray, who returned in the first game that Fox was sidelined. Fox leads the Kings with a 30.3% usage rate on the season and averaged 26.7 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 6.2 assists in his 35 games. Stay tuned to see if Fox will be able to suit up on Sunday in a very favorable matchup against the Bulls.

Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (calf) carries a questionable tag on the injury report ahead of Sunday's action against Dallas. He has missed nine games and is nearing his return, but it might not come in Sunday's matchup. Russell Westbrook has been starting in Gordon's place over the last couple of weeks. He will likely return to the bench once Gordon is ready to come back. However, the two might start together on Sunday, as Jamal Murray (knee) is iffy for the contest.

Chicago Bulls forward Torrey Craig will miss a sixth straight game with a right lower leg contusion that has sidelined him since December 30. Craig averaged just 6.9 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 0.6 assists in his nine games this season and averaged 12.3 minutes per contest. The veteran did flash upside with 18 points in his most recent game against the Hornets, but he'll continue to be a non-factor for fantasy on Sunday.

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (knee) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against Dallas. The Canadian star played only 16 minutes in Friday's win against Brooklyn due to left knee soreness and might now drop out of the lineup for the first time in three weeks. Russell Westbrook has benefited on previous occasions when Murray missed games and has already carried good momentum after breaking into the starting lineup. Aaron Gordon (calf) has been listed as questionable for Sunday and will likely replace Murray in the starting unit if he's cleared to play. If he remains out, Peyton Watson might fill in for Murray.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (illness) has been listed as probable on the injury report ahead of Sunday's matchup against Dallas. The multi-time MVP continues to battle an illness, but he was able to return from a two-game absence on Friday versus Brooklyn, and the probable tag suggests that Jokic will likely be good to go on Sunday as well. It's been another remarkable campaign for Jokic, who leads the league with 15 triple-doubles and is averaging 31.6 points, 13.0 rebounds, and 9.9 assists. He's had massive triple-doubles in both previous meetings with the Mavericks this season.

Detroit Pistons guard Tim Hardaway Jr. (back) will be able to return to the floor for the Pistons on Saturday night when they host the Raptors. Hardaway was originally listed as questionable after being a late scratch for Thursday's contest due to back tightness. He had been starting for Detroit and getting a little more work with Jaden Ivey (leg) out. The veteran averaged 13.2 points, 1.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and 2.4 three-pointers in 31 minutes in his last five games before being sidelined. His return will move Malik Beasley to the second unit while Ron Holland II and Marcus Sasser will likely have less work off the bench as well.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Bruce Brown (knee) will be active against Detroit on Saturday. Brown missed Thursday's matchup against Cleveland for knee injury management purposes, but Toronto has not listed him on the injury report entering Saturday. Brown made his season debut only a couple of weeks ago and has averaged 5.4 points and 2.0 rebounds in five appearances. For once, the Raptors are fully healthy on Saturday, so fantasy managers should overlook Brown because his role on the team is limited.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Ochai Agbaji (hip) will return to action on Saturday against Detroit. He missed Thursday's meeting with Cleveland due to a hip issue and was also initially questionable for Saturday's game. However, Toronto has upgraded Agbaji from questionable to available. The 24-year-old has averaged 10.8 points and 3.8 rebounds across 29.5 minutes this season. He had a productive start to the campaign when the Raptors were battling injuries. Agbaji's numbers have dropped to 8.8 points and 2.5 rebounds this month with Toronto healthy, so he doesn't have much to offer fantasy managers.

Utah Jazz forward John Collins (hip) won't suit up versus the Phoenix Suns. The veteran has had his best season in years, averaging 17.9 points, his most since the 2019-2020 campaign, while logging 8.3 rebounds and 1.1 steals. The Jazz play the Nets on Sunday, and with Collins listed as out because of injury management purposes, it appears there's a chance he could return for that one. Brice Sensabaugh (illness) and Johnny Juzang (hand), who are both questionable, could see more work without Collins available. However, if they don't suit up, Kyle Filipowski, coming off an 11-rebound, two-steal, one-block effort versus the Heat, could be a streaming option for fantasy managers.

Utah Jazz guard Keyonte George (heel) won't play on Saturday versus the Suns. The 21-year-old has averaged a career-high 15.6 points and 5.7 assists this season. Unfortunately, he's missed Utah's previous three games because of left heel inflammation. With Jordan Clarkson (foot) also out, Lauri Markkanen and Collin Sexton should see an increase in scoring opportunities, with the duo combining for 46 points in a recent meeting with the Miami Heat. Isaiah Collier will also likely roll with the first-five. Although Collier has logged just 5.4 points in five starts this season, he's at least contributed to other areas, averaging 7.0 assists and 5.6 boards in those appearances.

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (foot) will remain sidelined for Saturday's game versus the Suns. The veteran has had a decent 2024-25 campaign, averaging 16.0 points and 3.8 assists. But he's already missed 14 games this season, including the previous three contests because of Plantar Fasciitis in his left foot. Utah could have used him in the lineup on Saturday, considering the Jazz also won't have John Collins (hip) and Keyonte George (heel). There's also a chance Johnny Juzang (hand) and Brice Sensabaugh (illness) won't suit up. With that in mind, Collin Sexton and Lauri Markkanen, combining for 46 points in a recent meeting with the Miami Heat, are must-start fantasy options. Isaiah Collier and Patty Mills could get more action. Although Collier and Mills could see an uptick in production, both players are risky for any fantasy setup, including for those participating in DFS contests.

Denver's C Nikola Jokic recorded a triple-double, finishing with 35 points, 15 assists and 12 rebounds in a 124-105 win over the Nets on Friday, Jan. 10.

Nuggets' G Russell Westbrook recorded a triple-double, finishing with 25 points, 10 assists and 11 rebounds in a 124-105 win over the Nets on Friday, Jan. 10.

Thunder's G Isaiah Joe scored 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in a 126-101 win over New York on Friday, Jan. 10. Joe is owned in very few, if any leagues.

Milwaukee's F Giannis Antetokounmpo recorded a double-double, scoring 41 points and grabbing 14 rebounds in a 109-106 win over Orlando on Friday, Jan. 10.

Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (shoulder) won't play on Saturday against the Rockets. Initially, his right shoulder inflammation wasn't too concerning for fantasy managers. However, Johnson will miss a fourth consecutive game on Saturday, so most are hoping he won't be on the shelf much longer. It's unfortunate, especially since the 23-year-old is averaging career-highs in points (19.8), rebounds (10.1), assists (5.3), blocks (1.1), and steals (1.5). But until he's back on the floor, Trae Young (Achilles), Dyson Daniels, and De'Andre Hunter should benefit the most on the offensive end.

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) is expected to suit up on Saturday against Houston. The right Achilles Tendinitis is nothing new, so he should be out there barring a setback. The 26-year-old hasn't had his most efficient season, averaging 22.5 points and shooting 33.9% from behind the arc. Fortunately, he's at least made up for it by amassing a career-high 12.1 assists per game. With Jalen Johnson (shoulder) still out, Young should continue to get a few more looks at the basket. While he's always a must-start in redraft formats, the challenging matchup versus Houston doesn't make him a practical option for DFS lineups.

Houston Rockets forward Tari Eason (leg) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Hawks. The 23-year-old has missed the last 11 games. Head coach Ime Udoka recently indicated Eason was close to returning to the court. However, Udoka added that the team wanted to remain cautious, especially at this point in the year. With Jabari Smith Jr. (hand) on the shelf, there should continue to be minutes and scoring opportunities up for grabs. While Fred VanVleet, Jalen Green, Alperen Sengun, and Amen Thompson should continue to lead the way on the offensive end, Cam Whitmore, averaging 12.6 points and 3.2 rebounds in January, is worth streaming in most fantasy formats.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (illness) will play on Friday night versus Brooklyn. The multi-time MVP missed the previous two games because of an illness. However, after riding a questionable designation, fantasy managers figured he'd be back for this one after he went through pre-game warmups. As expected, Jokic should be added back to fantasy lineups for the favorable matchup versus the Nets, although his presence will mean fewer minutes for DeAndre Jordan and Dario Saric.

Golden State Warriors center Trayce Jackson-Davis (eye) will suit up on Friday against Indiana. He was initially listed as questionable for the game due to a left eye contusion, but the team has upgraded Jackson-Davis to available. The sophomore has played well recently and is coming off a double-double performance. Jackson-Davis had 14 points and 10 rebounds with three assists as the Warriors defeated Detroit 107-104 on Thursday. He finished with 13 points and eight rebounds in this season's first clash against the Pacers.
