Golden State Warriors guard De'Anthony Melton (glute) has been tagged as questionable on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's clash against the San Antonio Spurs. He is nursing a glute contusion and may come out of the lineup after appearing in five consecutive games. Melton has been a starter for each of the last three contests. If Melton is a no-go on Wednesday night, we may see Brandin Podziemski return to the first unit. He has also been a big part of the rotation off the bench, but a starting role would make Podziemski an even more appealing fantasy option.

Miami Heat forward Andrew Wiggins (toe) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's fantastic fantasy matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans. The veteran is dealing with a toe issue and may join Tyler Herro (back), Norman Powell (back), and Pelle Larsson (elbow) on the sidelines. With so many regulars out injured, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Simone Fontecchio, Kasparas Jakucionis, and Dru Smith are getting extra run-outs in the rotation. Jakucionis has performed the best of the group in recent games, scoring 20-plus points in back-to-back outings.

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ribs) won't play on Wednesday against the New Orleans Pelicans. He has been ruled out for a 15th straight game due to a right costochondral injury to the ribs. Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra noted on Monday that Herro is "making progress." However, it remains unclear when he can suit up again. Miami also won't have Norman Powell (back) and Pelle Larsson (forearm) on Wednesday, while Andrew Wiggins (toe) is listed as questionable. In this situation, the team must lean more on Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kasparas Jakucionis, and Dru Smith.

Miami Heat guard/forward Pelle Larsson (elbow) will miss Wednesday's action against the New Orleans Pelicans. An elbow injury will keep Larsson sidelined for a third consecutive game. Miami is currently carrying several injuries, increasing the importance of Jaime Jaquez Jr., Simone Fontecchio, and Kasparas Jakucionis in the rotation. All three could make noise in Wednesday's favorable matchup against a struggling team that has the fourth-lowest defensive rating in the Association.

Chicago Bulls point guard Tre Jones (hamstring) is considered doubtful to play on Wednesday against the Boston Celtics. This suggests he will be out for an 11th consecutive game. Josh Giddey (hamstring) also remains doubtful on the injury report, meaning Anfernee Simons and Jaden Ivey will likely continue to start in the backcourt. There will also be a healthy amount of minutes available off the bench for Collin Sexton and Rob Dillingham. Simons (23 points) and Sexton (21 points) finished as Chicago's leading scorers in Monday's 123-115 loss to Brooklyn.

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Zach LaVine (finger) will be held out for a third consecutive game on Wednesday versus the Utah Jazz. Health issues have plagued LaVine all season, and he is currently nursing a finger injury. With Russell Westbrook (ankle) and Malik Monk (illness) also missing from the backcourt rotation, Devin Carter, Nique Clifford, and Daeqwon Plowden have larger roles. Carter is the safest fantasy option among the three players, though Clifford demonstrated his ability to get hot with a career-high 30 points against Cleveland on Saturday.

Sacramento Kings guard Malik Monk (illness) will remain out on Wednesday against the Utah Jazz, missing a third straight game. He has been bothered by an illness lately, exiting the lineup after having his strongest stretch of the season. Russell Westbrook (ankle), Zach LaVine (finger), De'Andre Hunter (eye), Keegan Murray (ankle), and Domantas Sabonis (knee) are also on Sacramento's long list of injuries, opening up additional playing time for Devin Carter, Nique Clifford, Daeqwon Plowden, Maxime Raynaud, and Dylan Cardwell. The Kings' players will be very attractive fantasy options on Wednesday, as Utah has the league's worst defensive rating.

Sacramento Kings forward/center Domantas Sabonis (knee) will sit out a fourth consecutive game on Wednesday against the Utah Jazz. The second-generation NBA player has been listed as out for left knee injury management. He has also recently dealt with a back problem. Sabonis' absence means Maxime Raynaud and Dylan Cardwell will continue to share minutes at center. Both rookies have played well recently, though Raynaud holds a slight edge on Cardwell from a fantasy perspective, as he has been Sabonis' direct replacement in the starting lineup. The French big man was one rebound short of a 20-20 game on Monday versus New Orleans.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (rest) is set to play on Wednesday against the Sacramento Kings. He was initially listed as out for rest as Utah begins a back-to-back. With Markkanen in the lineup on Wednesday, he likely won't play in Thursday's matchup with the Portland Trail Blazers. Given recent developments, fantasy managers shouldn't expect full value from Markkanen on Wednesday, as the tanking Jazz have begun resting him during games, keeping him off the floor in the fourth quarter.

Sacramento Kings point guard Russell Westbrook (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. The veteran star recently missed three games with a sore foot and is now dealing with a left ankle issue. With Westbrook on the shelf, fantasy managers should give Devin Carter a look, especially with four other regulars missing Wednesday's game. Carter has averaged 13.5 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists across the last four games. On Wednesday, he will face a team that has allowed the most fantasy points to point guards this season.

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (rest) will skip Tuesday's contest against the Phoenix Suns. The five-time All-Star will be rested after appearing in five consecutive games. Khris Middleton will be a fresh face in the rotation on Tuesday and will help compensate for Thompson's absence. Brandon Williams and Tyus Jones could also get more action off the bench. Thompson has been fairly durable during the season and will likely return to action on Thursday against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (rest) won't be in action on Wednesday against the Sacramento Kings. The team will begin a back-to-back set and has decided to rest Markkanen for the first game. With Keyonte George (ankle) also out of the lineup, the Jazz will rely primarily on Jaren Jackson Jr., Isaiah Collier, and Ace Bailey for offensive production. The trio combined for 51 points in Monday's 115-111 win over Miami. Meanwhile, Cody Williams and Brice Sensabaugh are likely to log more playing time without Markkanen.

Utah Jazz point guard Keyonte George (ankle) will miss a second consecutive game on Wednesday against the Sacramento Kings. Due to an ankle injury, George has featured just once since the start of February. In George's absence, Isaiah Collier has made a big mark, averaging 18.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 11.8 assists, and 2.4 steals across the last five games. There are also additional minutes available for Vince Williams Jr., who tallied five points, seven assists, and one steal in 15 minutes off the bench in Monday's win over Miami.

Indiana Pacers forward/center Micah Potter (hip) will play against the New York Knicks on Tuesday. The Pacers have updated his status from questionable to available. Potter has been playing through a hip issue lately and may ultimately take some time off on Wednesday when Indiana plays the second game of a back-to-back against Brooklyn. In Tuesday's contest, Potter may see some extra minutes on the floor due to Jarace Walker's (illness) absence. Last time out against Toronto, Potter was just short of a double-double, notching eight points and eight rebounds in 26 minutes.

Washington Wizards guard/forward Bilal Coulibaly (heel) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Cleveland. The issue surfaced after he logged 34 minutes Sunday, finishing with seven points, four rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one block while playing through discomfort. With Washington leaning into a youth movement and Kyshawn George (ankle) also questionable, minutes could funnel to rookie Will Riley, who has averaged 18.2 points, 2.6 threes, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists over his last five games. Fellow rookie Jamir Watkins gains fringe value. Coulibaly carries short-term risk, while Riley profiles as a streamer.

Washington Wizards guard/forward Kyshawn George (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday against Cleveland after turning his ankle Sunday, adding another layer of uncertainty to a Washington rotation already trending toward late-season evaluation mode. If George or Bilal Coulibaly (heel) sits, minutes should open for Will Riley, who has responded when extended, averaging 18.2 points, 2.6 threes, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists over his last five games. Jamir Watkins also gains fringe value. Riley profiles as a viable streamer, while George carries short-term risk in standard formats.

Indiana Pacers forward Jarace Walker (illness) won't play on Tuesday against the New York Knicks. He was added to the injury report very late due to illness and has been officially ruled out ahead of tip-off. Given the circumstances, it wouldn't be surprising if Walker also sat out Wednesday's game against Brooklyn. With Walker out, the rest of the second unit must step up against the Knicks. Micah Potter (hip), Ben Sheppard, and Kam Jones are all candidates for extended minutes.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Shaedon Sharpe (calf) will miss a third consecutive game on Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He strained his left calf last week and could be out through the All-Star break. Sharpe's absence from the lineup has increased Vit Krejci's workload, though he had a quiet five-point outing in Monday's loss to Philadelphia. Scott Henderson and Blake Wesley are also relied upon more in this situation, with the former being the better fantasy option. Henderson has averaged 11.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 8.0 assists in two games since making his season debut.

Brooklyn Nets forward Michael Porter Jr. (knee) won't suit up for Wednesday's clash against the Indiana Pacers. He remains on the injury report with right knee tendinitis. In Porter Jr.'s absence, Danny Wolf joined the starting unit on Monday against Chicago. The 21-year-old rookie has done a good job all year when given the opportunity to start, averaging 10.6 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.0 blocks in 28.0 minutes. Wolf may be even more productive on Wednesday against a defensively-challenged team. With Porter Jr. sidelined, the rest of the Nets starters also gain added fantasy value due to a higher share of offensive responsibilities.

Indiana Pacers point guard T.J. McConnell (hamstring) will play against the New York Knicks on Tuesday, Ian Begley of SNY reports. The veteran playmaker is experiencing soreness in his right hamstring but has been cleared to play in the first leg of a back-to-back. It appears likely that McConnell will be rested for Wednesday's matchup with Brooklyn. McConnell has made all of his 39 appearances off the bench this season, averaging 9.5 points, 4.8 assists, and 1.2 steals per game.
