Dallas Mavericks point guard
Brandon Williams (oblique) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's play-in game against the Sacramento Kings. He sustained a left oblique strain in Sunday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies, putting his status for Wednesday's matchup in doubt. Williams produced some very impressive displays during the final stretch of the regular season and could be a useful bench piece for the Mavericks as they try to sneak into the playoffs. If Williams is not available to play,
Spencer Dinwiddie and
Jaden Hardy will handle the minutes at the one position.

Sacramento Kings guard
Malik Monk (calf) will not feature in this week's Play-In Tournament. The 27-year-old missed the final three regular-season games due to a left calf strain and is still working his way back from the injury. He was ruled out for two weeks on April 9, meaning Sacramento will also have to begin its playoff campaign without Monk if the team manages to extend the season. Monk's absence has given
Devin Carter a role in the regular rotation. However, the 23-year-old rookie has not provided much from a fantasy perspective, averaging 5.3 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.3 assists across the three games that Monk has missed.

Dallas Mavericks center
Dereck Lively II (ankle) is off the injury report and ready to play on Wednesday against the Sacramento Kings. A bad ankle injury cost Lively II a significant portion of the season, and he still needs to manage it, which caused the young big man to sit out Sunday's regular-season finale against the Memphis Grizzlies. Since returning to the lineup, Lively II has averaged 16.0 minutes across four games, posting 5.5 points and 4.8 rebounds. He has not contributed much, but Lively II's role in Wednesday's contest could be very important, as Dallas needs to match
Domantas Sabonis and
Jonas Valanciunas inside the paint.

Dallas Mavericks forward
P.J. Washington (ankle) has been cleared to play and is not on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's play-in game against the Sacramento Kings. The 26-year-old has faced health issues throughout the second half of the season and sat out Sunday's matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies to manage an ankle sprain. Washington went off for 28 points in his lone regular-season appearance against the Kings and enters the Play-In Tournament in fine form. He is shooting 42.9 percent from deep this month, averaging 12.3 points and 7.0 rebounds.

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward
Klay Thompson (foot) is not on the injury report for Wednesday's play-in contest against the Sacramento Kings. The veteran sharpshooter missed Sunday's regular-season finale against the Memphis Grizzlies with a foot sprain. This was only his third absence since the beginning of February, so Thompson has enjoyed a healthy spell, which is a big plus for the Mavericks. Thompson averaged 14.0 points per game during his first year in Texas. However, his recent output has been inconsistent, as Thompson has finished three of his last five appearances with single-digit points. The Kings limited Thompson to 11.0 points during the regular season, despite his red-hot 46.2 percent shooting from downtown.

Miami Heat forward
Andrew Wiggins (hamstring) is expected to be in the lineup on Wednesday against the Chicago Bulls, as the team has removed his name from the injury report. The 2022 NBA champion has been dealing with a hamstring issue late in the season, playing only twice this month. He was not in the lineup on Sunday against the Washington Wizards. Since returning to action, Wiggins has been limited to 24.5 minutes per game. However, he has still been productive, averaging 12.0 points with 5.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists, and 1.5 steals.

Miami Heat guard
Tyler Herro (rest) has been removed from the injury report and is good to go for Wednesday's contest against the Chicago Bulls in the Play-In Tournament. Miami rested Herro on Sunday as the team wrapped up its regular season schedule with a loss to the Washington Wizards. Herro has been a headache for the Bulls all year and must deliver another big performance for the Heat to keep their playoff hopes alive. In three regular-season meetings with Chicago, Herro averaged 24.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 6.3 assists.

Miami Heat forward/center
Bam Adebayo (rest) will be available for Wednesday's play-in clash against the Chicago Bulls. The Heat star dealt with a back issue late during the regular season and was rested for Sunday's matchup against the Washington Wizards. Adebayo has averaged 10.8 points and 10.5 rebounds across four career play-in games. However, he will be expected to do more offensively this year, with
Jimmy Butler III out of town. During the regular season, Adebayo was a 21-point scorer against the Bulls, adding 6.7 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game to his tally.

Milwaukee Bucks point guard
Damian Lillard (calf) will not be available for the start of the 2025 playoffs. Sources have told ESPN's Shams Charania that doctors examining Lillard believe he is making significant progress, but the Bucks star has not yet been cleared to resume full basketball activities. The team announced Tuesday that Lillard had made "significant improvement on his deep vein thrombosis" and that he will increase his on-court activity. However, Lillard remains without a timetable for his return.
Ryan Rollins appears to be penciled in for another start when Milwaukee begins its first-round series against the Indiana Pacers on Saturday. During Lillard's absence,
Kevin Porter Jr. has also seen an increase in fantasy value.

Golden State Warriors forward
Moses Moody (back) will play on Tuesday versus Memphis. He began experiencing back tightness on Tuesday morning, resulting in a questionable tag. But the 22-year-old had no issues going through pre-game warmups. With Moody on the floor,
Buddy Hield, who would have been in line to start, likely won't be as productive for DFS managers.

Chicago Bulls guard/forward
Dalen Terry (calf) is probable for Wednesday's Play-In matchup against Miami. The 22-year-old logged 17 minutes in Sunday's win over the Philadelphia 76ers. With
Lonzo Ball (wrist) doubtful, he should continue to receive more minutes. However, Terry hasn't hit the double-digit scoring mark since March 24, so he may not be the safest option for DFS managers, even if
Josh Giddey (forearm) can't get back on the floor.

April 15, 2025
Chicago Bulls guard
Lonzo Ball (wrist) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against Miami. He hasn't played since February 28, and it doesn't appear a return in on the horizon. Fortunately,
Josh Giddey (forearm) is expected to return from a two-game absence.
Dalen Terry (calf) is also anticipated to suit up, so he should continue to see more work if Ball is officially declared out. With that in mind, Terry hasn't hit the double-digit scoring mark since March 24, making him a risky option for DFS participants.

April 15, 2025
Dallas Mavericks forward/center
Anthony Davis (adductor) is probable heading into Wednesday's Play-In showdown with the Kings. He didn't play in Sunday's loss to the Grizzlies, with
Naji Marshall handling things at the four spot and finishing with 11 points. AD will likely appear on the Injury report as long as the Mavs remain alive moving ahead, although it will take a lot to keep him off the floor. Davis met the Kings four times during the regular season, averaging 24.5 points, 14.5 rebounds, 2.8 blocks, and 1.5 steals while shooting 50.0% from downtown, making him a welcome addition to any DFS lineup.

April 15, 2025
Atlanta Hawks guard
Trae Young (Achilles) is available for Tuesday's Play-In showdown with the Orlando Magic. The former Oklahoma Sooner was listed as probable due to the Achilles Tendinitis that plagued him for most of the 2024-25 campaign. However, he'll be out there for the Southeast Division matchup. Young has faced Orlando three times this season, averaging 28.3 points, 8.0 assists, and 26.7% shooting from deep.

April 15, 2025
Chicago Bulls guard
Josh Giddey (forearm) is probable heading into Wednesday's Play-In matchup against the visiting Heat. He missed the final two games of the regular season. But head coach Billy Donovan remains optimistic Giddey will be out there versus Miami. If that's the case,
Julian Phillips, coming off a nine-point, seven-assist, two-steal performance, will presumably head back to the bench.
