Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry (knee) has not been listed on the injury report for Monday's game against Toronto. He sat out the second leg of a back-to-back on Friday versus Indiana because of bilateral knee injury management. However, Curry practiced on Sunday and will be ready to return to action against the Raptors. The Warriors superstar struggled in his last outing, finishing Thursday's 107-104 victory against Detroit with 17 points on 2-for-14 shooting from deep, but Curry still averages 26.0 points for the month.

Orlando Magic guard/forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (knee) will not play against Philadelphia on Sunday. A knee issue limited Caldwell-Pope to 11 minutes in Friday's matchup against Milwaukee. Still, he appeared to be on track to play on Sunday when the team listed him as probable on the initial injury report. However, the veteran has been ruled out for the contest ahead of tip-off. Caleb Houstan will fill in for Caldwell-Pope in the starting lineup. Houstan recently enjoyed a four-game stint as a starter but didn't offer much fantasy-wise. He averaged 7.3 points and 1.8 rebounds across 24.5 minutes in that role.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot, face) will not return to action in Sunday's matchup against Orlando. He will miss a fourth consecutive game after being initially regarded as questionable for the contest. Philadelphia will also be without Andre Drummond (toe), meaning Guerschon Yabusele is set for another busy outing. Adem Bona will serve as the backup center. Yabusele was quiet in the last game against New Orleans, but he has averaged a solid 10.8 points and 6.3 rebounds for the month.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Caleb Martin (groin) will not suit up for Sunday's contest against Orlando. He was a late addition to the injury report and has been ruled out due to a sore right groin. Eric Gordon will move to the starting unit as Martin's replacement. The veteran sharpshooter has had a tough campaign but recently netted 15 points with four makes from downtown in another spot start. However, it might be tough for Gordon to replicate the performance on Sunday, as the Magic allow the fewest three-point attempts per game in the league.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ty Jerome (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against Indiana. This comes as no surprise after Cleveland listed Jerome as doubtful on the initial injury report. Jerome's absence should slightly boost Sam Merrill and Caris LeVert from a fantasy perspective, while Craig Porter Jr. might break back into the rotation as an additional ball-handler. Jerome's first chance to return will come on Tuesday when Cleveland will square off against the Pacers in a rematch.

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (rest) will not be in the lineup on Sunday against Brooklyn. Following a 31-minute outing against Phoenix on Saturday, the Jazz are resting the seven-foot giant. John Collins (hip) also remains out of the lineup, and several other frontcourt pieces are questionable for the contest. This could lead to Drew Eubanks and Micah Potter featuring heavily in the rotation. On paper, it's a good matchup for Utah's healthy big men, as Brooklyn allows the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing centers.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (elbow, shin) will be active against Boston on Sunday. Murray is dealing with a couple of health issues right now, but he has been upgraded from questionable to available. The 28-year-old will have a significant role in slowing down Boston's backcourt, and Murray should also have a major part to play on the offensive end. He has averaged 17.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, 8.0 assists, and 2.0 steals across six January appearances.

Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (hip) remains out on Sunday versus the Nets. The 27-year-old has played in only one of Utah's previous 10 games. But he's listed as out due to injury management purposes, so it appears he's nearing a return. Fantasy managers have enjoyed Collins' production this season, with the veteran averaging 17.9 points, his highest mark since the 2019-20 campaign. In the meantime, Brice Sensabaugh (illness) and Kyle Filipowski (ankle) could see more minutes. But if neither of those players get on the floor, Micah Potter may get a few extra minutes of action, although not enough to warrant fantasy consideration.

Phoenix Suns forward Royce O'Neale (ankle) is expected to play on Sunday night against the Hornets. The veteran, who has averaged a career-high 10.5 points this season, missed the Suns' previous six games because of a sprained ankle. While O'Neale will likely get on the floor, he could have trouble doing anything meaningful for fantasy managers, considering Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal are healthy and active.

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (illness) won't play on Sunday night versus Charlotte. The veteran has been the subject of trade talks of late, with recent reports suggesting the Suns have had discussions with the Hornets about a potential swap. But for now, he remains in Phoenix, although he likely wouldn't have played even if he were available, considering he was kept off the floor during the Suns' previous two contests. At any rate, Mason Plumlee will remain in the middle. However, Plumlee can't be trusted to do anything outside of his contributions on the glass.

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox has been upgraded from questionable to available on Sunday and will return from a three-game absence. He last played against the Memphis Grizzlies on January 3 when he dropped 23 points, five assists, three rebounds, and three steals. Fox should return to starting fantasy lineups regardless of format while Keon Ellis will probably lose some offensive value along with Malik Monk and Kevin Huerter seeing fewer minutes.

According to Evan Sidery of Forbes, the Suns and Hornets have had "preliminary" talks surrounding a trade involving center Jusuf Nurkic, with the deal involving Hornets center Nick Richards. The 30-year-old has had one of the worst seasons of his career, averaging 8.6 points and 9.2 rebounds. He's also missed 10 games this season while not getting on the floor in Phoenix's previous two contests. With that said, Nurkic could have a tough time getting consistent work in Charlotte, at least while Mark Williams remains healthy, which has been an issue for the former Duke Blue Devil over the years. But it doesn't appear Nurkic will find his way back into the Suns' rotation anytime soon, meaning Mason Plumlee and Oso Ighodaro should continue to handle things in the middle.

According to NBA insider Chris Haynes, Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (calf) plans to play on Sunday versus the Mavericks. The 29-year-old, who is averaging only 13.7 points this season, has been burdened by a calf strain. He missed time because of the ailment back in November. However, Gordon aggravated the injury during the Christmas meeting with the Phoenix Suns, keeping him off the floor for Denver's previous nine contests. It's reasonable to assume head coach Mike Malone will be overly cautious with him for at least a few games, so Peyton Watson could continue to see more minutes than usual. But the real question will be how Gordon's return will impact Russell Westbrook, who has averaged 17.3 points, 8.2 assists, and 7.3 rebounds in six games in January.

Detroit Pistons' G Cade Cunningham recorded a triple-double, finishing with 22 points, 18 assists and 10 rebounds in a 123-114 win over the Raptors on Saturday, Jan. 11.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (face) was ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against Miami, marking his seventh consecutive absence. Head coach Chauncey Billups indicated Grant is still dealing with "a lot of jaw and neck soreness." However, the team plans to "ramp him up in the next couple of days." The 30-year-old has averaged 15.0 points this season, a significant decline from the 2023-24 campaign. Still, fantasy managers will be glad to see him back in the lineup, although that may not be for another week or two. But while Grant is on the shelf, Deni Avdija, averaging 13.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.2 steals in 19 starts, could continue to surpass his usual fantasy expectations.

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (ankle) won't play on Sunday versus Utah. He's had the best season of his career in 2024-25, averaging 19.5 points, 4.3 boards, and 43.6% shooting from behind the arc. Unfortunately, after the 2019 No. 11 overall pick appeared in 32 of Brooklyn's first 34 contests, he'll now miss a fifth consecutive game on Sunday because of a sprained ankle. With Cam Thomas (hamstring) and D'Angelo Russell (shin) also still sidelined, the team will need others to step up, meaning Keon Johnson, Noah Clowney, Tyrese Martin, and Nicolas Claxton could be more productive on the scoring end.

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) won't play on Sunday versus Orlando. The toe sprain continues to plague the 31-year-old, who will now miss a fourth consecutive contest. With Joel Embiid (foot, face) questionable, Drummond likely would have gotten the start. However, if Embiid doesn't suit up against the Magic, Guerschon Yabusele will likely handle things in the middle. The 2016 No. 16 overall pick has played well enough in his 15 starts this season, averaging 10.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 2.2 assists, giving him some upside for fantasy managers.

Washington Wizards guard Malcolm Brogdon (foot) will remain on the sidelines for a fourth consecutive game on Sunday versus Oklahoma City. The former Sixth Man of the Year is dealing with a plantar fascia contusion in his right foot. Jared Butler has re-entered the rotation with Brogdon out, logging 20-plus minutes in four consecutive contests. He has put in some strong performances, averaging 18.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 5.3 assists over that span. However, Butler's success might not continue on Sunday, as the Wizards face a team that has by far the league's best defensive rating (103.3).

Brooklyn Nets point guard D'Angelo Russell (shin) will not take the court on Sunday against Utah. He injured his right shin a week ago and will miss a fourth consecutive game. The Nets also continue to carry other injuries, giving players like Keon Johnson, Tyrese Martin, and Ziaire Williams additional fantasy value. Utah has the second-worst defensive rating in the league but ranks near the top 10 in pace, so Sunday's matchup will be a good one for Brooklyn from a fantasy perspective.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ty Jerome (illness) will likely skip Sunday's contest against Indiana, as he has been listed as doubtful on the injury report. Jerome is feeling under the weather and looks set to miss his second game of the season. The 27-year-old has been an important member of the bench unit this term, contributing 10.1 points in 17.6 minutes, with 3.4 assists and 1.2 steals. Sam Merrill and Caris LeVert might play a bit more with Jerome out of the lineup, with the latter being the better fantasy piece.
