Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura (calf) is questionable for Monday's meeting with the Charlotte Hornets. Hachimura sat out against the Warriors due to left calf soreness, and it appears as if his status for Monday is once again in doubt. He missed his sixth game of the season and is in danger of missing his second consecutive game. Hachimura has started every game he's played and is averaging 12.2 points and 5.3 rebounds on the season. Dalton Knecht is likely going to step up if Hachimura is out.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (illness) has been tagged as questionable for Monday's matchup with the New York Knicks after missing the team's last two contests. The Spaniard has a bit more competition for minutes since the team has gotten healthier, but h's carved out a role that sees around 24 minutes per game. If he's forced to remain on the sidelines, GG Jackson II has been a rising fantasy candidate as he gets some more minutes, and Zach Edey continues to deliver some strong big-man stats for category leagues like he did on Saturday with 19 points, seven rebounds, four blocks, and two steals.

Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Caris LeVert (wrist) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The shooting guard will miss his fifth game in a row due to a right wrist sprain. He has played in 34 games this season and missed 11. LeVert has revitalized his game, becoming a highly effective scorer and all-around defensive contributor averaging 10.8 points and 3.8 assists while shooting 42% from beyond the arc. His next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against the Miami Heat. Ty Jerome will continue to benefit from his ongoing absence.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup with the Detroit Pistons while he deals with a right knee sprain. This is his second consecutive absence after starting in the last 14 games prior to the injury. Max Strus will likely join the starting five again in his place since Evan Mobley returned on Saturday. Strus put up 14 points, nine rebounds, and three assists in their last game. He'd serve as a solid streaming option in deeper category leagues.

Houston Rockets guard/forward Cam Whitmore (illness) is suffering from an illness and was given a questionable tag for their Monday night game against the Boston Celtics. The second-year wing out of Villanova has seen inconsistent minutes, especially with Tari Eason back in the lineup, so he hasn't been very valuable in a lot of fantasy formats so far. If he doesn't play, however, Eason should see an increase in opportunities off of the bench. He's averaging 11.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists, and 2.6 steals per game in the five appearances since returning from injury.

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (head) has been listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He took an elbow to the head in their last game against the Magic and has suffered some headaches since then. The good news is that he was available for shootaround on Monday morning, but there hasn't been an official decision on his status just yet. If he's unable to play, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Ausar Thompson should see added minutes while Malik Beasley likely joins the starting five. When Harris left against the Magic, Beasley played 30 minutes and posted 18 points, five rebounds, two assists, and one steal.

Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Isaac Okoro (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Okoro will miss his sixth straight game due to his shoulder injury which appears to be more serious than first thought. Since being drafted, Okoro has established himself as one of the better perimeter defenders in the NBA and has taken massive strides in improving his outside shot. He averages 5.8 points on 42.7% shooting from the field and 39.7% from three. His next chance to return to game action will come Wednesday against the Miami Heat. His absence would likely free up additional playing time for Sam Merrill and Georges Niang in the rotation.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (elbow, finger) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the Toronto Raptors. The veteran has been battling numerous injuries during the 2024-25 campaign. But he's also seen a dip in production, averaging 17.5 points, five points less than last season. With that in mind, if Murray remains out on Monday, Jordan Hawkins, amassing 14 points and three steals in Saturday's loss to Charlotte, will likely remain in the starting lineup. Jose Alvarado, who logged 32 minutes in that one, could also be in line for a bump in fantasy production.

New York Knicks forward Josh Hart (knee) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the visiting Grizzlies. He carried the same designation ahead of Saturday's win over the Kings. But the veteran was out there. Not only that, but Hart finished with 20 points, 18 rebounds, 11 assists, and two blocks in 40 minutes. It would be surprising if he wasn't available. However, if Hart can't suit up, Precious Achiuwa and Cameron Payne may be in line for more work. But his absence will likely mean more scoring opportunities for Karl-Anthony Towns, OG Anunoby, Jalen Brunson, and Mikal Bridges.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is probable for Monday's game in Charlotte. The 40-year-old went from probable to questionable heading into Saturday's meeting with the Warriors. However, he was able to suit up, finishing with a 25-point, 12-rebound double-double. With Anthony Davis (foot) also expected to play, the Lakers are in a good position to extend their three-game win streak against one of the worst teams in the National Basketball Association. With that in mind, James is a must-start, although he could be more productive than usual.

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (foot) is expected to play on Monday against Charlotte. AD has appeared on the injury report nearly the entire season. However, he's only missed three games. Davis is also having one of his best seasons since entering the National Basketball Association, averaging 25.9 points, 11.9 rebounds, 2.2 blocks, and 1.3 steals. As such, he could be in for a big night versus one of the worst teams in the league.

Atlanta Hawks forward Larry Nance Jr. (hand) is questionable for Monday's meeting with the Timberwolves. The veteran missed nearly a month after undergoing surgery on his right hand. But he returned on Saturday against the Raptors, finishing with four points in 20 minutes. The Hawks play consecutive games on Monday and Tuesday, so head coach Quin Snyder may keep him out for one of them. But with Trae Young (hamstring) and Jalen Johnson (shoulder) ruled out, and De'Andre Hunter (illness) and Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) questionable, Nance may find himself in the starting lineup, just like he was on Saturday. But depending on who is available, David Roddy may begin the game on the court, with the 23-year-old averaging 10.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 2.5 steals in two starts this season.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (illness) is questionable for Monday's meeting with the Timberwolves. The 27-year-old hasn't felt well, keeping him off the floor for Saturday's loss to the Toronto Raptors. But the Hawks need him back on Monday, considering Jalen Johnson (shoulder) and Trae Young (hamstring) aren't available. To make matters worse, Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) is questionable. With that said, if Hunter is available, he's a must-start in any fantasy format. But if he remains sidelined, Vit Krejci and Dyson Daniels are the favorites to see a bump in production.

Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) is questionable for Monday's matchup with Minnesota. The rookie, who has missed the last six games because of an adductor strain, has averaged 10.5 points this season. However, with Jalen Johnson (shoulder) and Trae Young (hamstring) both ruled out versus the Timberwolves, Risacher would be in a position to be more productive. His fantasy ceiling would rise even higher if De'Andre Hunter (illness) remains on the shelf after missing Saturday's loss to the Toronto Raptors.

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (hamstring) won't play on Monday against the Timberwolves. Usually, the former Oklahoma Sooner is listed on the injury report because of an Achilles issue. However, he's battling hamstring tightness, so he'll miss his fourth game of the 2024-25 campaign. The Hawks will also be without Jalen Johnson (shoulder), and with De'Andre Hunter (illness) and Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) questionable, the team could see expanded production from Vit Krejci and Dyson Daniels on Monday night.

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) is questionable for Monday's game against Houston. The veteran recently logged 19 minutes in Saturday's win over the Dallas Mavericks. However, he's in danger of missing Monday's game because of a left toe sprain. With Derrick White (shin) questionable, Horford may be needed in the starting lineup on Monday night. But if White and Horford are ruled out, Sam Hauser, averaging 10.0 points and 45.7% shooting from deep in seven starts, will likely roll with the first five.

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (shin) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the Rockets. He carried a questionable tag because of a sore left knee ahead of Saturday's game versus the Dallas Mavericks. However, the 30-year-old was out there, finishing with 23 points. But if White ends up missing his third game of the 2024-25 campaign, Sam Hauser could find his way into the starting lineup, especially if Al Horford (toe) can't suit up. Hauser has been decent as a starter this season, averaging 10.0 points and shooting 45.7% from behind the arc. While that won't make him a viable option in redraft formats, it would increase his value for DFS contests.

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons (back) is questionable heading into Monday's game versus Sacramento. The former Philadelphia 76er has a sore back, keeping him out of the lineup in the Nets' previous four contests. Simmons has averaged only 6.3 points this season. However, he has logged 7.1 assists and 5.3 rebounds per contest, so he continues to have some value for category managers. With that said, if Simmons stays on the shelf, Tyrese Martin should remain more involved, although he has been hit-or-miss from a production standpoint.

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (ankle) remains out for Monday's meeting with the visiting Kings. The 2019 No. 11 overall pick has been battling a sprained ankle, limiting him to only three appearances in Brooklyn's previous 12 games. It's unknown when he'll be back on the floor. But with Johnson's name still mentioned in trade rumors, he may have already played his final game for the club. With Ben Simmons (back) questionable, D'Angelo Russell and Keon Johnson are the favorites to lead the team in scoring on Monday night.

Orlando Magic center Goga Bitadze (concussion protocol) is questionable to face the Heat on Monday night. He played only 12 minutes against the 76ers on January 12, exiting prematurely because of a hip injury. Unfortunately, the 25-year-old has been sidelined for Orlando's previous six contests due to concussion-like symptoms. But the questionable designation at least suggests Bitadze is moving in a positive direction, so it appears he has a chance of returning at some point during the Magic's six-game road trip. While he is sidelined, Wendell Carter Jr., averaging 8.7 points and 8.0 rebounds in 25 starts during the 2024-25 campaign, will likely continue to fill the spot in the rotation.
