Toronto Raptors guard/forward Bruce Brown (face) will play against the New York Knicks on Tuesday. After being hit in the face during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers, Bruce did not practice on Monday and entered Tuesday with a questionable designation. However, he has been cleared for action. With RJ Barrett (concussion) unavailable, Brown could see a few extra shifts in the rotation. The veteran is averaging 8.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and 1.0 steals in 19.9 minutes this season.

According to Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphia, Philadelphia 76ers centerAndre Drummond (toe) has been downgraded to unavailable after carrying a questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Dallas Mavericks. The left toe issue has given the veteran a lot of problems over the last month. With so many injuries, the Sixers need him back on the floor. His next chance to return comes on Wednesday against the Heat. Joel Embiid(knee) is available for Tuesday's game, and with Drummond out of action andGuerschon Yabuselestarting for the injuredPaul George(finger),Adem Bona will see an expanded role at center coming off the bench this evening.

Toronto Raptors forward/center Chris Boucher (illness) will not be in the lineup on Tuesday against the New York Knicks. TSN's Josh Lewenberg has reported that Boucher is currently away from the team as he is battling an illness. Kelly Olynyk, Orlando Robinson, and Ochai Agbaji may receive an uptick in minutes with Boucher unavailable. RJ Barrett's (concussion) absence also opens up minutes for Toronto's reserves on Tuesday. Considering Boucher isn't with the team, it's likely he also won't be in the lineup on Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies.

Dallas Mavericks power forward P.J. Washington (personal) will not be in the lineup on Tuesday against the Philadelphia 76ers. After missing Sunday's blowout loss against the Cleveland Cavaliers with a knee issue, Washington was initially expected to return to the lineup on Tuesday. However, he will end up sitting out a second straight game, with personal reasons cited for his absence. Anthony Davis (abdomen) isn't ready for his Mavericks debut and Dereck Lively II (ankle) remains on the shelf, meaning Dallas will be shorthanded in the frontcourt Tuesday night. Olivier-Maxence Prosper logged 31 minutes on Sunday and looks set for a heavy workload again.

Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphiareports that Philadelphia 76ers guard/forwardEric Gordon(knee) is unavailable for Tuesday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran sharpshooter will be out for a second consecutive game due to knee soreness. With the 36-year-old out of action, Ricky Council IV will likely take on extra minutes. OnSunday against the Boston Celtics, Council finished with 11 points, seven rebounds, eight assists, and two steals. He will be a viable option for fantasy managers again on Tuesday, especially with Gordon out.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett (concussion) will not play in Tuesday's matchup against the New York Knicks. He has landed in concussion protocol. Ja'Kobe Walter, Bruce Brown (face), and Ochai Agbaji all have an opportunity to play expanded roles with Barrett out. At the same time, Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley will likely have more offensive usage. Toronto also plays on Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies, meaning Barrett is likely facing a multi-game absence.

Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphiareports that Philadelphia 76ers point guardKyle Lowry(hip) won't suit up against the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday. Lowry will sit out after returning to the Sixers lineup for the last five contests. The 38-year-old veteran guard has been dealing with soreness in his right hip that has limited him to playing in only 30 games this season. He is no longer considered a fantasy factor when healthy, averaging just 4.3 points in 19.6 minutes per contest.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is set to return to the court on Tuesday against the Dallas Mavericks after being unavailable for 15 games. 76ers head coach Nick Nurse stated that Embiid will not have a strict limit on his minutes during the game. He added that 30 minutes is a realistic expectation, though the final number would be determined by how Embiid feels throughout the game. Guerschon Yabusele has started at center during Embiid's absence and will remain in the first unit on Tuesday, moving to the power forward position.

Shams Charania of ESPN reports that the Dallas Mavericks traded guard/forwardQuentin Grimes and Philadelphia's 2025 second-round pick back to the 76ers for guard/forwardCaleb Martin (hip) on Tuesday, sources tell ESPN. Grimes won't be able to compete against his former team on Tuesday as he waits for the trade to finalize. However, he could be cleared to make his Sixers debut against the Heat on Wednesday. The 24-year-old has averaged 10.2 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game across 47 contests this season.

According to Shams Charania of ESPN, the Philadelphia 76ers traded guard/forwardCaleb Martin(hip) to the Dallas Mavericks for Quentin Grimes and Philadelphia's 2025 second-round pick back to the 76ers, sources tell ESPN. Martin was listed as questionable earlier for Tuesday's game due to a hip injury. However, he is unavailable until the trade becomes finalized and won't play against his former teammates on the Sixers this evening.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is expected to play in Tuesday's Battle of Los Angeles against the Clippers. He has picked up his customary probable tag ahead of the contest, but James hasn't yet missed any games in 2025 and should remain in the lineup for Tuesday's tilt. With Luka Doncic (calf) not yet healthy enough to join him, James has to carry a massive offensive load. He just produced a hugely impressive 33-point triple-double in Saturday's 128-112 road win against the New York Knicks. James has recorded 10 triple-doubles for the season, including two in his last seven games.

Toronto Raptors forward/center Chris Boucher (illness) is questionable to play in Tuesday's matchup against the New York Knicks. He is battling an illness and may be out for a second time in three games. Boucher's absence would put Kelly Olynyk and Orlando Robinson in a position to earn extra minutes off the bench. Olynyk recently had a three-game run with double-digit points, but he was quiet on Sunday against the Los Angeles Clippers, finishing a 115-108 win with four points, one rebound, and two assists. Robinson has averaged 4.2 points and 3.2 rebounds in 13.8 minutes since joining the team on Jan. 18, so he isn't someone fantasy managers should monitor.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Bruce Brown (face) has been labeled as questionable for Tuesday's clash against the New York Knicks. Brown was hit in the nose in Sunday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers and wasn't feeling well enough on Monday to practice. Ja'Kobe Walter stands to benefit from Brown's absence on Tuesday. The 20-year-old rookie has regained some momentum in recent games, scoring double-digit points in back-to-back outings. However, with Toronto's big guns all healthy, Walter is not someone fantasy managers can count on.

Brooklyn Nets guard/center Ben Simmons (back) will not be in the lineup on Tuesday against the Houston Rockets. As an injury-prone player, Simmons doesn't play in back-to-backs, and the Nets are scheduled to head out again on Wednesday night against the Washington Wizards. Tyrese Martin could break back into the rotation with Simmons unavailable, with Keon Johnson and Ziaire Williams in line for extra usage. Martin has averaged 8.1 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 1.8 assists for the season.

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (ankle) will remain out on Tuesday against the Houston Rockets. An ankle sprain will keep Johnson sidelined for a sixth consecutive game. However, Johnson's return appears to be close, as he went through most of Monday's practice. Tuesday marks the start of a back-to-back for Brooklyn, so it's possible Johnson will be welcomed back into the lineup on Wednesday against the Washington Wizards. With that said, the trade deadline is approaching, and Johnson may have played his last game as a Net. Since Cam Thomas (hamstring) also remains sidelined, Ziaire Williams and Jalen Wilson have increased offensive responsibilities.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Caleb Martin (hip) practiced on Monday and is listed as questionable for Tuesday's clash against the Dallas Mavericks. He has missed nearly a month of action, sitting out 12 games. However, the questionable tag suggests that Martin could be ready to return on Tuesday. If he remains out, Justin Edwards will continue to roll with the starters. The 21-year-old rookie has been one of only a few bright spots for the 76ers during a frustrating campaign, averaging 9.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.3 steals as a first-unit member.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Eric Gordon (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran sharpshooter might be out for a second consecutive game due to knee soreness. Before getting hurt, Gordon had fought out a starting role for himself. Ricky Council IV stepped in for him on Sunday against the Boston Celtics and put together a strong line with 11 points, seven rebounds, eight assists, and two steals. He will be an option for fantasy managers again on Tuesday if Gordon isn't ready to return.

New Orleans' F Trey Murphy III scored 41 points on 13-of-21 shooting in a 113-125 loss to Denver on Monday, Feb. 3.

Nuggets' C Nikola Jokic recorded a triple-double, finishing with 27 points, 10 assists and 14 rebounds in a 125-113 win over the Pelicans on Monday, Feb. 3.

Houston Rockets' G Amen Thompson recorded a triple-double, finishing with 25 points, 11 assists and 11 rebounds in a 118-124 loss to New York on Monday, Feb. 3.
