2 weeks agoDenver Nuggets forward
Aaron Gordon (foot) is probable ahead of Friday's showdown with the Spurs. The veteran has been bothered by a strained right foot for weeks. While the ailment cost him a few games, he was on the floor in Wednesday's much-needed win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Nuggets are looking to close out the 2023-24 campaign in decisive fashion heading toward the postseason, so Gordon and company all deserve consideration for any DFS contest on Friday night.

2 weeks agoMiami Heat point guard
Terry Rozier (neck) is considered questionable for Friday's game against Toronto. He could be sidelined for a third consecutive game as Rozier is struggling with neck spasms. Rozier's absence has given a pair of starts to
Caleb Martin, who's produced 10.7 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 2.6 assists on average in the first unit over the course of the season. It has also meant extra usage for
Tyler Herro, particularly with
Duncan Robinson (back) joining Rozier on the sidelines. Herro has been Miami's top scorer in back-to-back games, firing off a whopping 40 shots.

2 weeks agoDenver Nuggets forward
Michael Porter Jr. (quadriceps) is probable ahead of Friday's matchup with the Spurs. The 25-year-old has only missed one game this season, and with the Nuggets looking to finish atop the Western Conference, he should be on the floor versus San Antonio. Porter has averaged 17.7 points and 10.0 rebounds in three meets against the Spurs during the 2023-24 campaign, making him an ideal option for all DFS contests.

2 weeks agoWashington Wizards guard
Jordan Poole (illness) is considered questionable for Friday's contest against the Chicago Bulls. The 24-year-old is currently under the weather with a non-COVID illness and could end up sitting out. Poole has been very productive recently, so his potential absence for fantasy managers would come at an unfortunate time. If he sits out,
Jared Butler and
Johnny Davis will likely be given more playing time.

2 weeks agoDenver Nuggets guard
Jamal Murray (knee) is probable for Friday's game in San Antonio. He's appeared on the injury report since returning from a seven-game layoff. However, the 27-year-old was available for the Nuggets' previous three contests, most recently amassing 20 points and six assists while going 4-for-6 from deep in Wednesday's much-needed win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. Denver needs another victory, so Murray should be ready to produce, keeping him on the radar for DFS managers.

2 weeks agoAccording to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center
Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is expected to return to the lineup on Friday versus Atlanta. He's officially regarded as questionable for the game after sitting out over a month of action following meniscus surgery on his left knee. Towns is set to return in a good matchup against a team that struggles to contain opposing big men, but his workload will likely be closely monitored as the playoffs are just around the corner.
Naz Reid's playing time will take a major hit with Towns' return. However, he's been one of the best bench guys in the league and will still carry a good amount of fantasy value.

2 weeks agoDenver Nuggets center
Nikola Jokic (hip) is anticipated to suit up on Friday versus the Spurs. The multi-time MVP's presence on the injury report was expected, considering he's appeared on it over the last few weeks. But the Nuggets are fighting to keep a grasp on the No. 1 spot in the Western Conference, so head coach Mike Malone can't afford to rest his starters. With that in mind, Jokic had 42 points, 16 rebounds, six assists, and two blocks when these clubs met back on April 2, making it likely he'll see plenty of interest from DFS managers, and rightfully so.

2 weeks agoAtlanta Hawks guard
Dejounte Murray (quadriceps) has been listed as questionable for Friday's matchup against Minnesota. A right quadriceps contusion kept Murray out from Wednesday's meeting with Charlotte, and he could now miss a second consecutive game. Murray had sat out just three games all season before landing on the shelf on Wednesday. Atlanta's lineup and rotation against the Hornets -- nine of 10 players used logged at least 20 minutes -- suggested that the team is okay with the thought of finishing 10th in the Eastern Conference, so there's no reason for the Hawks to rush Murray back.
Garrison Mathews and
Vit Krejci, who combined for 29 points on Wednesday, get more opportunities to play without Murray.

2 weeks agoDallas Mavericks guard
Kyrie Irving (hamstring) won't play on Friday versus Detroit. The former Duke Blue Devil has been on a roll lately, averaging 28.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.2 assists, and 1.7 steals in six games in April. But the Mavericks are going to the playoffs, so Dallas won't need him out there against arguably the worst team in the National Basketball Association. With
Luka Doncic (ankle) also on the injury report,
P.J. Washington,
Tim Hardaway Jr., and
Dante Exum may see a significant uptick in fantasy production.

2 weeks agoWashington Wizards point guard
Tyus Jones (back) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against the Chicago Bulls. He will be sidelined for the 15th consecutive game because of a back injury. The Wizards only have 15 wins this season, and since there is not much to play for, it would not be surprising if Jones has already played his last game of the year. Washington's final matchup will be played on Sunday against the Boston Celtics, which will be his final chance to return.

2 weeks agoLos Angeles Lakers forward/center
Anthony Davis (eye) is expected to be back in action on Friday against Memphis. He's been battling a left eye injury since last week and couldn't play on Tuesday versus Golden State because he was experiencing a headache and nausea.
Jaxson Hayes played well as Davis' fill-in in the starting five, but he will head back on the bench on Friday, which drops his fantasy appeal near the minimum. The Grizzlies remain without
Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps), meaning there's really nobody on the squad capable of slowing down Davis, so this could be a big comeback game for the Lakers star.

2 weeks agoDallas Mavericks guard
Luka Doncic (ankle) is questionable heading into Friday's matchup with the Pistons. The 25-year-old has been on and off the injury report all season. However, he's only missed 10 games, his fewest since his rookie campaign. With that said, the Mavs are set for the playoffs, so the team may give Doncic a night off versus the disastrous Pistons. With
Kyrie Irving (hamstring) also ruled out,
Dante Exum,
Tim Hardaway Jr., and
P.J. Washington could lead the way on the scoring end.
--Dennis Clausen - RotoBallerSource: NBA Injury Report
2 weeks agoLos Angeles Lakers forward
LeBron James (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Friday's matchup against Memphis. He's back on the injury report with a left ankle issue after recently battling an illness. James missed Sunday's game against Minnesota due to the illness but came back with an impressive 33-point, 11-assist double-double on Tuesday versus Golden State. The questionable tag has been more like a probable designation for James all season, and the chances appear high that he will play against the Grizzlies. Memphis has done little to slow down James in 2023-24, as the NBA's all-time leading scorer has notched 23.7 points, 9.3 rebounds, 8.3 assists, and 2.3 steals across three head-to-head clashes.

2 weeks agoPhiladelphia 76ers forward
Kenyon Martin Jr. (toe) might be absent for a second consecutive game on Friday versus Orlando, as the team has listed him as questionable for the contest. The high-flying youngster is trying to overcome a left big toe contusion. Martin has seen quite a bit of playing time lately, but it's come during a time when Philadelphia has been without a number of frontcourt players due to injuries. He doesn't have a big role to play when everybody's healthy, and the 76ers should do just fine without Martin if he isn't in the lineup on Friday.

2 weeks agoPhiladelphia 76ers point guard
Kyle Lowry (knee) is considered questionable for Friday's battle with the Magic. He's in danger of missing a third consecutive game due to a left knee effusion. The veteran has logged 8.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 4.6 assists in 28.8 minutes since joining his hometown team. The trio of
Cameron Payne,
Buddy Hield, and
De'Anthony Melton should take care of his minutes on Friday if Lowry can't return. Hield has the most fantasy upside of the three, but he's blown hot and cold in Philadelphia.
