Dallas Mavericks forward/center
Anthony Davis (calf) remains out for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. AD injured his calf in the win over the Indiana Pacers on October 29, ending his night after only six minutes of work. Unfortunately, he's not ready to return, so his next chance to get on the floor will be on Wednesday versus the visiting Phoenix Suns.
Daniel Gafford (ankle) is available. However, he's been limited to 20-25 minutes per contest, severely restricting his fantasy value. Managers could see increased production out of
P.J. Washington and
Cooper Flagg. The same applies to
Brandon Williams,
Naji Marshall,
Max Christie, and
D'Angelo Russell.

Charlotte Hornets power forward
Miles Bridges (back) is probable for Monday night's matchup with the Los Angeles Lakers. Bridges leads the Hornets with 34.4 MPG. His 20.7 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 3.9 assists per game remain a strong complement to
LaMelo Ball. With Bridges likely to play, expect opportunities inside for
Ryan Kalkbrenner as Bridges, Ball, and
Kon Knueppel continue to space the floor and allow one-on-one looks inside. Charlotte has attempted 39.6 threes per game (10th in the league). Look for a high-scoring matchup as both the Hornets (119.4) and Lakers (116.8) rank in the bottom ten in defensive rating this season.

Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard
Austin Reaves (groin) has been upgraded to probable ahead of the team's Monday night matchup with the Charlotte Hornets. Reaves has been an integral piece of the team's 7-3 start to the season. He leads all Lakers with 37.9 minutes per game. The 27-year-old has averaged 31.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 9.3 assists, and 1.4 steals per game as he helps steer the ship until
LeBron James (back) returns. Reaves should be started in all formats, as he continues to reward fantasy owners who took a chance on him coming into the season.

Utah Jazz forward
Taylor Hendricks (hamstring) is questionable for Monday night's matchup with the Timberwolves due to hamstring soreness. Hendricks has appeared in all nine games this season, starting three. While the 22-year-old has been a consistent part of the lineup, he is playing just 16.4 minutes per game, averaging 4.4 points and 4.2 rebounds.
Ace Bailey and
Kyle Anderson may see extra minutes if Hendricks is limited. The Jazz' last matchup with Minnesota came on Friday when they suffered a 137-97 defeat.

San Antonio Spurs center
Luke Kornet (ankle, shoulder) is listed as questionable for Monday night's matchup with the Chicago Bulls. The veteran big man hasn't played since October 24. Kornet is averaging eight points and eight rebounds through two appearances this season. The return of their backup center would give the Spurs more flexibility while superstar
Victor Wembanyama rests. Kornet primarily plays as the team's reserve center, but has shared the floor with Wembanyama for a little more than 12 minutes of his 50 minutes played this season, giving the team a true "twin towers" lineup when they choose to utilize it.

Orlando Magic point guard
Jalen Suggs (knee) will not be available for the second leg of their back-to-back on Monday night against the Portland Trail Blazers. The team is opting to rest Suggs in an attempt to manage his ongoing left knee injury. The 24-year-old is averaging 12.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.9 steals per game this season. Expect to see increased minutes for
Anthony Black and
Tyus Jones in a juicy matchup. The Trail Blazers currently have the second-highest pace (105.9) this season, which should maximize possessions for this game.

November 10, 2025
Milwaukee Bucks forward
Taurean Prince (neck) is expected to miss an extended period of time after being diagnosed with a herniated disc in his neck. Prince last appeared on Nov. 4 and was originally believed to be recovering from a neck sprain. Prince has appeared in eight games this season, averaging 6.1 points and 1.6 rebounds over 21.1 minutes per game. Prince has been locked in from deep this season, shooting 42.9% from three. Several players could benefit from increased minutes, including
Kyle Kuzma,
Bobby Portis, and
Amir Coffey.

Dallas Mavericks guard
Dante Exum (right knee) will remain sidelined for Monday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks due to injury management. The veteran guard has yet to play this season, and his absence continues to thin out Dallas' backcourt depth. With
Kyrie Irving still out, expect
Max Christie and
Brandon Williams to maintain steady minutes, with
D'Angelo Russell leading the playmaking and rookie
Cooper Flagg occasionally running the offense. Exum's fantasy relevance remains minimal until he returns, but he's worth monitoring in very deep leagues given his efficiency and defensive versatility. Last season, he averaged 8.7 points, 2.8 assists, and shot 43 percent from three in limited minutes. Fantasy managers in standard formats should look elsewhere for short-term production while Exum's return timeline remains unclear.

November 10, 2025
Chicago Bulls forward
Patrick Williams (left finger sprain) is listed as probable for Monday's matchup against the San Antonio Spurs. The 24-year-old hasn't missed a game this season but continues to struggle with consistency, making him difficult to trust in most fantasy formats. Williams is averaging 8.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and under one steal per game while shooting 45 percent from the field and 46 percent from deep. Despite decent efficiency, his low usage and lack of steady production limit his fantasy impact. He's best left for managers in very deep leagues looking for occasional threes and defensive stats from the end of their bench.

Brooklyn Nets center
Day'Ron Sharpe (hamstring) exited Sunday's loss to the New York Knicks and was ruled out for the remainder with left-hamstring tightness after 12 minutes, finishing with 10 points, six rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one block. For fantasy managers, he should be considered day-to-day, though hamstring issues can easily linger.
Noah Clowney, who has started the last four games alongside
Nicolas Claxton, would likely see an uptick in workload if Sharpe misses time.
E.J. Liddell could also pick up some minutes off the bench, but he remains a watchlist option only, having yet to show meaningful fantasy impact despite brief appearances in recent games. Sharpe had been quietly productive in limited minutes this season, averaging 6.7 points and 5.3 rebounds on 65 percent shooting, making him worth holding in deeper leagues while awaiting an official update.

Golden State Warriors guard
Stephen Curry (illness) is expected to return Tuesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder, according to head coach Steve Kerr. Curry has missed the past three games due to a general illness, and the Warriors dropped two of those contests, underscoring just how vital he remains to their offense. Before his absence, the two-time MVP was averaging 26.8 points, 4.3 assists, and 3.6 rebounds while shooting 39 percent from deep and 95 percent from the line. His return should immediately lift the team's scoring and spacing, benefiting teammates like
Jonathan Kuminga and
Jimmy Butler III, who have carried the offensive load recently. Fantasy managers should confidently reinsert Curry into all lineups, as he remains a top-tier 9-cat option capable of elite efficiency and volume across multiple categories.

November 10, 2025
Indiana Pacers guard
T.J. McConnell (hamstring) remains sidelined but continues to ramp up toward his season debut, according to coach Rick Carlisle. The veteran has been out since straining his hamstring in early October, and recent workouts indicate he's getting close to returning. His presence would be a welcome boost for an injury-hit Pacers squad still missing
Bennedict Mathurin (foot),
Obi Toppin (foot),
Johnny Furphy (ankle), and
Quenton Jackson (hamstring). McConnell's steady playmaking and defensive activity should immediately help stabilize Indiana's second unit. Last season, he averaged 9.1 points, 4.4 assists, and 1.1 steals in under 18 minutes per game while shooting 52 percent from the field. Fantasy managers in deeper 9-cat formats should consider stashing him now, as his efficiency and steals upside can quietly provide category-winning value once he's back.

November 9, 2025
Atlanta Hawks guard
Luke Kennard (illness) will hop back into the lineup on Monday against the Los Angeles Clippers. His name has been removed from the injury report after Kennard missed two contests due to illness. The Hawks are currently dealing with several injury issues, which could lead to Kennard playing a significant role in the game. He may even make his first start of the season if
Jalen Johnson (quadriceps) and
Nickeil Alexander-Walker (back) are unable to play against the Clippers.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center
Larry Nance Jr. (knee) is considered questionable for Monday's game against the Miami Heat. A knee problem could keep Nance Jr. out for a second consecutive game. Working as a reserve, Nance Jr. has contributed 4.6 points and 3.7 rebounds in 16.7 minutes this season. If he can't play on Monday,
Dean Wade may receive more work in the Cavaliers frontcourt. Although Wade is a versatile player, his efforts typically do not translate well into fantasy basketball.

November 9, 2025
Dallas Mavericks center
Dereck Lively II (knee) will likely sit out an eighth consecutive game on Monday against the Milwaukee Bucks after the team listed him as doubtful on the injury report. Both
Anthony Davis (calf) and
Daniel Gafford (ankle) have been tagged as questionable for the game, meaning the Mavericks frontcourt could be very shorthanded. The injury issues at the number five position have allowed rookie
Moussa Cisse to enter the rotation, and he's somebody to monitor if the regular bigs are out for Dallas. The 23-year-old finished Saturday's win over the Washington Wizards with five points, nine rebounds, and three blocks in 19 minutes.
