ESPN's Shams Charania reports that Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry (knee) is unavailable to suit up on Thursday against the Boston Celtics. Curry will be held out of action due to a knee issue. An MRI taken on Wednesday showed no structural damage, but the 37-year-old still has swelling and there isn't a clear timetable on when he will return. While Curry is out, the Warriors will have to continue to rely on Brandin Podziemski and Pat Spencer to take on extended minutes.

Sacramento Kings guard Malik Monk (illness) is available for Thursday's clash with the Orlando Magic. An illness kept the 28-year-old sidelined for four consecutive contests. Monk is averaging 12.4 points, 2.6 assists and 2.0 rebounds across 22.2 minutes in 43 games this season. With Zach LaVine (hand) and Domantas Sabonis (knee) out for the remainder of the season, Monk could absorb more offensive responsibility moving forward.

Sacramento Kings point guard Russell Westbrook (ankle) is active for Thursday's matchup with the Orlando Magic. The 37-year-old was sidelined for the Kings' last game before the All-Star break due to an issue with his left ankle. Westbrook's fantasy value received a boost recently as Zach LaVine (hand) and Domantas Sabonis (knee) are unavailable for the rest of the season. He will likely see plenty of extra minutes on the floor for the forseeable future.

Toronto Raptors forward/center Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) is listed as probable after missing his team's last game before the break with a left thumb sprain. He was able to play in the Rising Stars event, though, so the injury doesn't seem like it will cost him extended playing time going forward. Murray-Boyles could get a little extra playing time on Thursday, depending on the final status of Sandro Mamukelashvili (rib, questionable). If Mamu is out, Murray-Boyles will get more minutes in their timeshare with Jakob Poeltl, who just returned from an extended absence with a back injury. If all three big men are available, Murray-Boyles should still get enough work to be usable in most formats, but he will have a much lower ceiling with a smaller workload.

Chicago Bulls guard Tre Jones (hamstring) was upgraded from questionable to probable and will likely make his return on Thursday, when the Bulls host the Raptors. Jones and Josh Giddey (hamstring) have both missed time with hamstring issues, and while they were out, the team made several moves to shake up the backcourt. Jones and Giddey will likely be playing limited minutes in their returns on Thursday, so they may not play their full workload. In the bigger picture, it will be fascinating to see how the roles are defined now that the team has Collin Sexton, Jaden Ivey, and Anfernee Simons all looking for usage and minutes in the backcourt.

Chicago Bulls center/forward Jalen Smith (calf) is listed as probable for his team's first game after the All-Star break on Thursday night against the Raptors. Smith has been very productive when available since the Bulls are thin in the frontcourt after trading Nikola Vucevic at the trade deadline. He missed the last three games before the break with a calf injury, and Guerschon Yabusele started in his place, with Nick Richards also getting extended run. Smith should get most of the minutes when he's healthy and has a chance to put together great numbers the rest of the way if he's healthy and can come close to maintaining his per-minute production this season.

Indiana Pacers forward/center Micah Potter (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup, and he'll be a key player to watch for DFS contests and streaming options in a great matchup against the Wizards. He had 19 points and 12 rebounds in 27 minutes in his last game before the All-Star break against the Nets and could play a huge role on Thursday since Pascal Siakam (personal) is away from the team, and Ivica Zubac (ankle) also remains out. If Potter is unable to play through the injury, Jay Huff and Jarace Walker would have even more work to do in the frontcourt in this smash spot against Washington.

Toronto Raptors center Sandro Mamukelashvili (rib) is listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Bulls in the Windy City, due to a right rib contusion. The Raptors just got Jakob Poeltl back in action before the break, and he'll probably remain on a minutes restriction for a while. Mamukelashvili and Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb, probable) will continue to share time behind Poeltl if they're both available on Thursday, making each a high-risk play if everyone is healthy. Mamukelashvili definitely brings potential when he gets work, but his role is uncertain even if he does play through this rib injury on Thursday.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (elbow) has not played since Jan. 21 and has been limited to only 20 games this season due to multiple injuries. He'll be sidelined for at least a couple more weeks due to discomfort from his UCL sprain. He is averaging 19.5 points, 8.1 assists, and 3.3 rebounds per game when available, but the Grizzlies made an attempt to trade their former star at the trade deadline and were unable to find any takers. He doesn't seem to be in the team's plans, although he could return late in the season to try and increase his value. He'll be re-evaluated in two weeks, and until then, Ty Jerome, Scotty Pippen Jr., and Cam Spencer will continue to run the point for the Grizz.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (finger) is going to undergo surgery to address the misalignment of his right pinky finger, and after the surgery, the team should be able to provide a firmer timeline of when he'll be able to return this season, if at all. KCP gets plenty of minutes when healthy, but is not a major fantasy contributor. Without him, there is more time for Jaylen Wells, Ty Jerome, Scotty Pippen Jr., and the rest of the Grizzlies younger options in the backcourt and on the wings. The Grizzlies spot in the standings makes it unlikely they push their veterans to return and instead use the rest of the year to evaluate players who could have a role in the future.

Toronto Raptors forward/center Sandro Mamukelashvili (ribs) is questionable for Thursday's contest against the Chicago Bulls. The Georgian big man has made 13 consecutive appearances but may have to exit the lineup on Thursday due to a right rib contusion. Mamukelashvili has formed a solid one-two punch with Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) at center for Toronto during Jakob Poeltl's absence. With Poeltl now back in the mix, the two will have smaller roles on the team. Murray-Boyles will likely see a bit more action against Chicago if Mamukelashvili can't play.

Chicago Bulls point guard Tre Jones (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Toronto Raptors. He has been nursing a left hamstring strain for several weeks and might be out for a 12th consecutive game. The injury has occurred at a bad time for Jones, who faces increased competition for playing time in Chi-Town. Anfernee Simons, Collin Sexton, and Jaden Ivey have all made a positive first impression since joining the team. The trio has also benefited from Josh Giddey's (hamstring) absence.

Toronto Raptors forward/center Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) is listed as probable for Thursday's action against the Chicago Bulls. The rookie big man hurt his left thumb before the All-Star break, but the injury will cost him only one game. Murray-Boyles has averaged 7.9 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 2.1 assists during his first year in the Association. He's done a great job filling in for Jakob Poeltl, who has dealt with a back issue throughout the season. Poeltl returned to the lineup just before the break, meaning Murray-Boyles must settle for a bench role going forward, which limits his fantasy potential.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (finger) will have surgery on Thursday, the team announced. The veteran must undergo a procedure to correct misalignment of his right pinky finger. Memphis will provide a timeline for Caldwell-Pope's recovery after surgery. Caldwell-Pope has had a disappointing campaign in 2025-26, averaging 8.4 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 2.7 assists. After beginning the year as a regular starter, he has been part of the first unit just once since Nov. 12. Players like Scotty Pippen Jr. and Olivier-Maxence Prosper may see more time on the floor during Caldwell-Pope's absence.

Chicago Bulls forward/center Jalen Smith (calf) is expected to rejoin the lineup on Thursday against the Toronto Raptors. The team has listed him as probable on the injury report. Before the All-Star break, Smith skipped three games with a right calf strain. Smith has become a solid option for fantasy teams, averaging 12.4 points and 8.3 rebounds in 25.3 minutes since Jan. 1. Guerschon Yabusele and Nick Richards will lose minutes to Smith, who has been a regular starter for the Bulls over the last seven weeks.

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry (knee) will miss a sixth consecutive game on Thursday against the Boston Celtics. Curry was unable to practice on Wednesday because he did not "feel right," according to Warriors head coach Steve Kerr. After practice, Kerr suggested Curry might undergo a second MRI on his right knee. Pat Spencer and Gui Santos have stepped up during Curry's absence, though Kristaps Porzingis' (Achilles) likely return on Thursday will have a significant impact on the rotation.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (elbow) will be re-evaluated in two weeks, the team announced on Wednesday. The Grizzlies star hasn't played since Jan. 21 due to a UCL sprain in his left elbow. Unfortunately, health issues have ruined another campaign for Morant, who has suited up just 20 times this season. With him unavailable, Ty Jerome, Cam Spencer, and Scotty Pippen Jr. have larger roles on the team. Jerome has the most fantasy appeal of these three players, but he has been playing with a minutes limit since making his season debut in late January. Across 20.2 minutes per game, Jerome has averaged 19.7 points, 6.0 assists, and 1.2 steals.

Sacramento Kings' newly acquired forward De'Andre Hunter (eye) has been ruled out for Thursday's contest against the Orlando Magic. Hunter missed the previous three games with a left eye injury that began before the All-Star break. The forward was traded to Sacramento from the Cleveland Cavaliers during this season's trade deadline and has played just three games with the Kings. With him set to miss another game on Thursday, forward Precious Achiuwa should start, while rookies Maxime Raynaud and Nique Clifford should be major beneficiaries of the number of injuries affecting the Kings' lineup.

Golden State Warriors center Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Thursday's contest against the Boston Celtics, but he told reporters he plans to make his debut with the team. Porzingis was traded to the Warriors from the Atlanta Hawks at this season's trade deadline after playing just 17 games with them. Many expect Porzingis to be the perfect fit with the Warriors, barring health. The former fourth-overall pick has averaged 19.6 points per game in his career, shooting over 36% from three in each of the last four seasons. With Porzingis expected to play, centers Al Horford and Quinten Post should see fewer minutes moving forward, while Porzingis should be more of a factor from a fantasy perspective.

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Thursday's contest against the Toronto Raptors but practiced in full on Wednesday and expects to play. Giddey has missed the previous eight games with a strained left hamstring, and the team has struggled, losing seven of its last eight games without him. The former sixth-overall pick has had a career year in his fifth season, averaging 18.6 points, 8.6 rebounds, and 8.8 assists in 32 minutes per game. With Giddey expected to return on Thursday, expect guards Collin Sexton, Jaden Ivey, and Rob Dillingham to see fewer minutes and less offensive production moving forward.
