Milwaukee Bucks guard Ryan Rollins (hip) is probable for Friday's contest against the Boston Celtics. He is expected to return from a one-game absence. AJ Green and Andre Jackson Jr. will lose playing time to Rollins, who has been Milwaukee's most productive player late in the season. The 23-year-old has averaged 22.2 points, 5.2 rebounds, 6.2 assists, and 1.8 steals over his last five outings. If he's cleared to play, Rollins should once again be a focal point of Milwaukee's offense, though Boston held him to just five points in their last meeting.

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Bobby Portis (wrist) will miss a sixth straight game on Friday against the Boston Celtics. He is struggling to shake off a wrist injury, and since Milwaukee has nothing left to play for, it wouldn't be surprising to see Portis sit out the rest of the regular season. Pete Nance has carved out a regular spot in the rotation during Portis' absence. He impressed with a 23-point outing on Wednesday against Houston, but it's unlikely he will be able to repeat that performance on Friday, especially with Kyle Kuzma (Achilles) and Myles Turner (ankle) back in the fold.

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) will rejoin the lineup on Friday against the Chicago Bulls. Brunson sat out Wednesday's win over Memphis to manage an ankle injury, but his name hasn't been included on the injury report ahead of Friday's game. With Brunson back on the court, we will see a lot less of Jose Alvarado, Landry Shamet, and Tyler Koler in the Knicks' rotation, especially with Miles McBride (pelvic) also expected to return. Brunson had just 12 points on Tuesday night against Houston, but he had previously impressed with two 30-point efforts in three games. On Friday, he has an ideal fantasy matchup against a defensively weak team that likes to run.

Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford (shoulder) is not on the injury report for Friday's matchup with the Orlando Magic. Gafford hurt his right shoulder in Tuesday's loss to Milwaukee, but he has quickly shaken off the injury. The 27-year-old big man can be infuriatingly inconsistent with his performances, but his average numbers were strong in March. Over 11 appearances, he posted 15.1 points and 9.2 rebounds in 23.5 minutes per game. From a fantasy perspective, Orlando tends to be stingy to centers, so Gafford will have a challenging matchup on Friday night.

Los Angeles Clippers center Isaiah Jackson (ankle) will be re-evaluated in one week, Janis Carr of The Orange County Register reports. The big man suffered a high right ankle sprain on March 27 against Indiana and will be out for a third consecutive game on Thursday night versus Portland. The regular season ends next Sunday, so it's possible the Clippers won't have Jackson available until the postseason. Starting center Brook Lopez looks set for a heavy workload in the final few games, while John Collins will see more time at the No. 5 spot.

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Trey Murphy III (ankle) will make his return to the lineup on Thursday against the Portland Trail Blazers. The 25-year-old has recovered from an ankle sprain, shedding a questionable tag. Murphy III has missed three games, which has opened the door for Yves Missi to move back into the starting lineup. He will likely be bumped back to the bench on Thursday. During a disappointing campaign, Murphy III's performance has been one of the few positives for the Pelicans. He is averaging a career-high 21.7 points, along with 5.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.5 steals. New Orleans is in a pace-up spot on Thursday night, giving Murphy III a good opportunity to put up numbers above his season averages.

Utah Jazz guard Isaiah Collier (hamstring) is out for Friday's game against the Rockets, extending his absence to nine straight games. His continued absence should keep Bez Mbeng involved after he logged seven points, one rebound, two assists, and one steal in 23 minutes last game. Kennedy Chandler could also maintain a sizable role after finishing with 16 points, five rebounds, six assists, one steal, and one block in 33 minutes. Chandler looks like the more reliable deep-league streamer, while Mbeng is a deeper-league gamble.

Golden State Warriors guard Seth Curry (adductor) won't be in the lineup on Thursday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The team has downgraded his status from questionable to out. This was expected after Curry played in Wednesday's loss to San Antonio. The veteran has just returned from an adductor strain, and Golden State won't want to overwork him so soon after his injury. Curry has only a limited role with the Warriors, and his absence shouldn't be an issue for the team on Thursday.

Chicago Bulls guard Tre Jones (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks, while Josh Giddey (hamstring) is also on the injury report. If either guard is out, Collin Sexton could see another start after finishing with 18 points, one three-pointer, three rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block in 26 minutes last game. Sexton is averaging 20.4 points, 2.6 three-pointers, and 3.2 assists over his last five games and looks like a solid points streamer. Rob Dillingham may also see increased minutes as a deep-league option.

Golden State Warriors guard De'Anthony Melton (thumb) will play Thursday against the Cavaliers after missing one game due to a sprained thumb. He should return to his usual workload and offer streaming value for managers targeting defensive stats. Melton is averaging 9.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 2.0 steals over his last five appearances. He also recorded three assists and two steals in 25 minutes in his last start. With Stephen Curry (knee) still out, Melton could continue seeing steady backcourt minutes alongside Brandin Podziemski and Gary Payton II.

Golden State Warriors forward Gui Santos (pelvic) will play on Thursday night against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Brazilian forward sat out the first leg of a back-to-back on Wednesday versus San Antonio and was initially listed as questionable for Thursday's game. Santos has taken a big leap this season and has been especially impressive since the All-Star break. Over his last 20 outings, Santos has averaged 16.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.1 assists, and 1.3 steals. Santos will lead the Warriors' offense on Thursday alongside Kristaps Porzingis and Brandin Podziemski.

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (knee) won't finish Thursday's contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports. Harris hurt his left knee in a collision with Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert, exiting the action in the first quarter. He was initially considered questionable to return before the team ruled him out. Javonte Green started the second half instead of Harris and could have a more prominent role going forward if the veteran has to miss some time.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Marvin Bagley III (shoulder) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Magic and could miss a third straight contest. His likely absence should keep Daniel Gafford locked into steady frontcourt minutes, while Dwight Powell may continue to serve as the primary backup after posting three points, three rebounds, and one steal in 15 minutes last game. Bagley posted 26 points, nine rebounds, three assists, one steal, and one block in his last game, but the injury makes him tough to rely on. Gafford remains the safer fantasy option for rebounds and blocks.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Alex Caruso (illness) is out for Thursday's game against the Lakers, ending his streak of appearances since early March. His absence should open modest minutes for Cason Wallace, who finished with nine points, one three-pointer, and one assist in 27 minutes as a starter last game. Ajay Mitchell also logged 14 points, two rebounds, three assists, two steals, and one block in 36 minutes and could remain a deep-league streaming option. Jared McCain may also see extra run off the bench, though Caruso's absence has limited standard-league impact.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center P.J. Washington (illness) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Magic and appears on track to miss a third straight contest. His expected absence should keep Khris Middleton in a steady role after he logged eight points, one three-pointer, five rebounds, and two assists in 22 minutes as a fill-in starter last game. Naji Marshall, recently cleared from the injury report, could also see expanded opportunities after posting 19 points, three rebounds, three assists, and five steals in his last appearance. Marshall could be worth streaming, while Middleton offers deeper-league value.

Indiana Pacers guard T.J. McConnell (hamstring) is out for Friday's game against the Hornets, leaving Indiana thin in the backcourt again. Quenton Jackson drew a start last game and finished with eight points, three rebounds, six assists, and one steal in 17 minutes, while Ethan Thompson broke out for 24 points with five three-pointers, two rebounds, five assists, two steals, and one block in 31 minutes. Thompson looks like a speculative deep-league add, though his role remains uncertain. Kam Jones could remain a streaming option after handing out seven assists in 25 minutes.

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Aaron Nesmith (neck) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Hornets, marking his third straight absence. His continued absence should keep Kobe Brown in a meaningful role after Brown produced 17 points, one three-pointer, eight rebounds, and six assists in 28 minutes as a spot starter last game. Brown shapes up as a viable deep-league streamer while Indiana remains shorthanded, with Jarace Walker (back) and Andrew Nembhard (back) also sidelined. Pascal Siakam (knee), if active, should continue to carry more of the offense.

Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (ankle) is off the injury report and expected to play Friday against the Celtics after missing one game. Turner has been limited lately, averaging 8.4 points, 2.0 three-pointers, 4.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 1.8 blocks in 23.0 minutes across his last five games, making him more of a category specialist than a must-start option. His return likely pushes Pete Nance back to a reserve role after Nance produced 23 points with five three-pointers in 40 minutes as a spot starter. Turner remains a viable option for managers needing blocks, while Nance could retain deep-league appeal.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Kyle Kuzma (Achilles) is off the injury report and expected to return Friday against the Celtics after a one-game absence. His return likely cuts into Ousmane Dieng's short-term upside after the young forward erupted for 36 points, one 3-pointer, seven rebounds, and 10 assists in 45 minutes as a fill-in starter. Kuzma posted 20 points, six rebounds, three assists, three steals, and one block in his most recent start and should reclaim a steady role. Dieng may still warrant deep-league attention, though Kuzma's role looks secure with Bobby Portis (wrist) out.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (illness) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Timberwolves and appears headed for another absence. Second-year big man Adem Bona started the last game and finished with 13 points, four rebounds, one assist, two steals, and one block in 21 minutes, making him a deep-league streaming candidate if he draws another start. Andre Drummond added six points, nine rebounds, four assists, and two steals in 24 reserve minutes and offers rebound upside. Tyrese Maxey and Paul George could also see slight usage increases. If he's able to suit up, Embiid stays locked into lineups.
