According to Shams Charania of ESPN, the Chicago Bulls waived guard/forward
Jaden Ivey (knee) on Monday following recent social media comments. Ivey was acquired by Chicago ahead of the trade deadline and appeared in just four games before being shut down for the remainder of the season due to left patellofemoral pain syndrome. He made 37 appearances this campaign, averaging 8.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.8 assists across 18.1 minutes per game. The 24-year-old was already set to become a restricted free agent prior to being waived.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward
Jalen Williams (hamstring) is unavailable for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Williams will miss the second leg of a back-to-back after posting 22 points, two assists, one rebound and one steal across 29 minutes in Sunday's 111-100 victory over the Knicks. His absence comes as no surprise, as the Thunder continue to manage his workload following a 16-game absence due to a right hamstring strain. With Williams out,
Cason Wallace,
Isaiah Joe and
Ajay Mitchell are likely to see increased minutes and additional scoring opportunities.

Boston Celtics guard/forward
Jaylen Brown (Achilles) is available for Monday's matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. Brown will return after missing two straight games due to left Achilles tendinitis. With
Jayson Tatum (Achilles) sidelined for rest purposes, Brown should take on even greater scoring responsibility this evening, boosting his fantasy outlook.

Boston Celtics forward
Jayson Tatum (Achilles) is unavailable for Monday's matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. Tatum will miss the tail end of a back-to-back after posting 32 points, five rebounds, eight assists and one block across 31 minutes in Sunday's win over Charlotte. The 28-year-old sitting out tonight's contest comes as no surprise, as he continues to be managed after returning from a right Achilles tendon tear. Fantasy managers can expect
Jaylen Brown to carry more of the offensive load with Tatum sidelined.

Utah Jazz guards
Keyonte George (hamstring) and
Isaiah Collier (hamstring) will remain out on Monday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Both players are nursing hamstring injuries and haven't been part of the lineup for a couple of weeks. George will miss his 10th consecutive game, and Collier won't be available for a seventh straight contest.
Kennedy Chandler,
Elijah Harkless, and
Bez Mbeng will continue to see extra action on Monday. Out of the three players, Chandler has provided the most consistent fantasy production, averaging 14.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, 7.2 assists, and 1.2 steals over the past five games.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward
Max Strus (foot) won't play on Monday against the Utah Jazz. Strus torched the Miami Heat with eight triples and 29 points in Friday's win, but he continues to manage a foot injury and will take the night off on Monday. Cleveland will likely reinsert him into the lineup on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Lakers. Strus has been coming off the bench, so we should see the rest of the reserves take on most of his minutes on Monday.

Cleveland Cavaliers center
Jarrett Allen (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup with the Utah Jazz. This isn't surprising, given that it's the first game of a back-to-back and Allen has just returned from a knee injury. He was limited to 18 minutes on Friday versus Miami but still collected a double-double, scoring 18 points and grabbing 10 rebounds.
Keon Ellis could rejoin the starting unit on Monday, and
Thomas Bryant may pick up a few extra minutes off the bench.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward
Jaylen Wells (toe) is scheduled to undergo toe surgery and is expected to miss the rest of the season, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints reports. He has been diagnosed with a tendon avulsion fracture in his right great toe and will undergo a procedure to stabilize the toe. Wells has already missed three games due to the injury. The 22-year-old sophomore becomes the seventh Grizzlies player to be ruled out for the rest of the season. Wells' absence opens the door for
Rayan Rupert,
Jahmai Mashack, and
DeJon Jarreau to take on expanded roles in the rotation.

Washington Wizards guard
Bub Carrington didn't finish Sunday's loss to the Portland Trail Blazers due to muscle cramping. He left the action in the third quarter, wrapping up his night with 11 points, two rebounds, four assists, one steal, and four turnovers in 22 minutes. Since this was the first game of a back-to-back for Washington, Carrington might sit out Monday's contest against the Los Angeles Lakers.
Tre Johnson (foot) and
Sharife Cooper could have more playing opportunities without Carrington.

Golden State Warriors guard/forward
Will Richard (heel) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Denver Nuggets. His run of 10 consecutive appearances will come to an end due to a sore left heel. Richard started in Golden State's most recent game but made a limited impact in 25 minutes.
De'Anthony Melton (knee) is expected to return to the first unit on Sunday and will look to finish the month strongly. He has notched 14.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.8 steals per game in March.

March 29, 2026
Golden State Warriors guard
Seth Curry (adductor) will be active on Sunday against the Denver Nuggets. He has recovered from a left adductor strain and could make his first appearance since March 13. Since joining the Warriors in December, Curry has taken the floor just four times. He has finished two of the games scoreless, while netting 27 points in the other two contests. Curry has impressed with a 4-for-7 success rate from deep. His ability to hit threes could be handy for the Warriors in a matchup against a team that allows the eighth-most three-point attempts in the league.

March 29, 2026
Golden State Warriors center
Quinten Post (foot) has been cleared to return to the lineup on Sunday against the Denver Nuggets. He has been managing a foot injury lately, missing three games. Post will add frontcourt depth to a Warriors team that currently can't count on
Al Horford (calf). The 26-year-old has a tough matchup against
Nikola Jokic on Sunday night. In his previous three clashes with the Nuggets this season, Post has posted averages of 4.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in 15.0 minutes per game.

March 29, 2026
Denver Nuggets forward/center
Aaron Gordon (calf) won't be in action on Sunday night against the Golden State Warriors, Bennett Durando of The Denver Post reports. He was a late addition to the injury report due to left calf tightness and won't be able to help his team after failing to shake off a questionable tag. The trio of
Cameron Johnson,
Peyton Watson, and
Spencer Jones should absorb Gordon's minutes.

March 29, 2026
Detroit Pistons forward
Tobias Harris (hip) will likely sit out Monday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, as the team has listed him as doubtful. The veteran is managing a hip injury and appears to be scheduled for a maintenance day.
Jalen Duren (knee) and
Duncan Robinson (hip) are also considered doubtful, while
Ausar Thompson (ankle) carries a questionable tag on the injury report. Consequently,
Ron Holland II,
Javonte Green,
Kevin Huerter, and
Caris LeVert could all take on more prominent roles against the defending champions.

March 29, 2026
Detroit Pistons guard/forward
Ausar Thompson (ankle) has been tagged as questionable on the injury report ahead of Monday's meeting with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Detroit will begin a back-to-back set and has some decisions to make. Thompson is managing a right ankle injury, so he's likely to sit out at least one of the upcoming games.
Kevin Huerter,
Ron Holland II, and
Javonte Green could all see more time on the court in Thompson's absence. Even if Thompson is in the lineup, the trio might still have expanded roles, as the Pistons are poised to head out with a new-look starting lineup.
Jalen Duren (knee),
Duncan Robinson (hip), and
Tobias Harris (hip) are all unlikely to play.
