New York Knicks guard/forward
Josh Hart (knee) is considered questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Utah Jazz. The veteran utility man is experiencing soreness in his left knee and could miss his first action since Feb. 4. Without Hart,
Landry Shamet and
Mohamed Diawara are expected to be more involved in the rotation, with one of them likely to start. Shamet's performances have been more consistent, making him a better fantasy target, but he's a fairly one-dimensional player. Since the All-Star break, Shamet has averaged 11.3 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game.

Cleveland Cavaliers center
Jarrett Allen (knee) will be sidelined for a third straight game on Wednesday against the Orlando Magic. He continues to deal with right knee tendonitis and will have his next chance to return on Friday versus the Dallas Mavericks. In Allen's absence,
Dean Wade has looked decent as a starter, recording a 13-point, 10-rebound double-double in Monday's victory over Philadelphia.
Thomas Bryant's workload has also slightly increased, but his numbers aren't good enough to warrant fantasy consideration.

Denver Nuggets forward
Cameron Johnson (back) is expected to play on Wednesday night against the Houston Rockets, as the team has listed him as probable. Johnson struggled with back spasms during Monday's loss to Oklahoma City. His move to Denver has not worked out well for Johnson, who has managed only 11.1 points per game. The 30-year-old recently had his second game of the season with zero points. Over his last six outings, Johnson has contributed only 7.2 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game, shooting a horrible 27.9 percent from the field.

Denver Nuggets point guard
Jamal Murray (ankle) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. Murray injured his left ankle last week but played through it in Monday's loss to Oklahoma City. The probable designation indicates that Murray will remain in the lineup on Wednesday night. Murray has already faced the Rockets three times this season, with averages of 25.7 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 7.3 assists per game. He has finished all three contests with three makes from downtown.

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center
Maxi Kleber (back) will not play Tuesday against the Timberwolves after being listed late on the injury report with a lumbar strain. Kleber has held a modest reserve role this season, averaging around 11 minutes per game, so the direct fantasy fallout is limited.
Jarred Vanderbilt is the most likely beneficiary and could see a small uptick in minutes in the Lakers' frontcourt rotation. Vanderbilt logged 11 minutes in the previous game, finishing with three points, two rebounds, one assist, and one block.
Deandre Ayton and
Rui Hachimura should continue handling most of the frontcourt workload.

Miami Heat forward/center
Bam Adebayo delivered a historic performance against the Wizards, erupting for 83 points while shooting 20-for-43 from the field, 7-for-22 from three-point range, and 36-for-43 at the free-throw line. The 28-year-old's scoring total ranks second all time behind Wilt Chamberlain's 100 and ahead of Kobe Bryant's 81. Adebayo also dominated usage throughout the night and could continue carrying Miami's offense if
Tyler Herro (quadriceps),
Norman Powell (groin), and
Andrew Wiggins (toe) remain limited by injuries. His massive workload caps the value of secondary options like
Jaime Jaquez Jr. and
Kel'el Ware (shoulder).

Philadelphia 76ers guard
Cameron Payne delivered a massive outing in Tuesday's 139-129 win over the Grizzlies, finishing with 32 points, 10 assists, three rebounds, two steals, and two blocks in 30 minutes. With
Tyrese Maxey (finger) expected to miss multiple weeks due to a finger tendon injury, Payne stepped into a larger offensive role and responded with a near-perfect shooting night, hitting nine of 10 shots while draining eight three-pointers and converting all six free throws. Whether he starts or continues leading the second unit behind
Quentin Grimes and
VJ Edgecombe, Payne now projects as a strong short-term fantasy pickup.

Los Angeles Lakers forward
LeBron James (hip) will miss Tuesday's matchup against the Timberwolves, marking his third straight absence while dealing with a right hip contusion and arthritis in his left foot. With the 41-year-old sidelined,
Rui Hachimura should continue to handle heavier minutes after starting and logging 37 minutes with 13 points, three three-pointers, seven rebounds, and two assists in the win over the Knicks.
Jarred Vanderbilt could also see a slight uptick after posting three points, two rebounds, one assist, and one block in 11 minutes last game. Hachimura is the safer play for fantasy managers, while Vanderbilt is more of a deep-league gamble.

Golden State Warriors forward/center
Draymond Green (back) will play Tuesday against the Bulls after previously being listed with lower back injury management. The veteran has produced modest but steady lines recently, averaging 8.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, 7.2 assists, and 1.6 three-pointers over his last five games while logging about 31 minutes per night. Green's value remains tied to assists and defensive production rather than scoring, making him more useful in category formats than points leagues. His return also tightens the frontcourt rotation, likely capping the minutes ceiling for
Kristaps Porzingis,
Al Horford, and
Gui Santos.

March 10, 2026
Golden State Warriors guard
De'Anthony Melton (thigh) is out for Tuesday's matchup against the Bulls after the team initially considered using him in the second leg of the back-to-back. With Melton and
Moses Moody (wrist) unavailable, Golden State should spread extra wing minutes across
Gary Payton II,
Will Richard, and reserve guard
Pat Spencer. Payton logged 13 points, one three-pointer, one rebound, and one steal in 26 minutes in the loss to Utah, while Richard previously flashed upside with 21 points, two triples, five rebounds, six assists, and three steals in a February start. Spencer added four rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 13 minutes last game. All three are risky deep-league streamers since their minutes could swing from night to night.

March 10, 2026
Toronto Raptors center
Jakob Poeltl (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Houston Rockets. This is tough news for the Raptors, with
Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) also sidelined. Fantasy managers will need to check back on Wednesday to see if Poeltl can return for the second leg of the back-to-back set.
Sandro Mamukelashvili should take on a heavier role with Poeltl out for this game. He's worth a look as a streaming option in most fantasy formats while the Raptors are shorthanded.
Jonathan Mogbo could see increased minutes as well, but Mamukelashvili is the primary add here.

March 10, 2026
Phoenix Suns guard
Grayson Allen (knee) is available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Allen is back in the mix after sitting out Sunday's game due to a knee injury. His absence could've been for rest purposes with Allen playing heavy minutes lately. His return to the rotation should mean a reduced role for
Haywood Highsmith. Allen has been a solid source of points since returning from injury in late February. Fantasy managers can get him active in their lineups ahead of tip-off.
--Andy WebbSource: NBA Injury Report
March 10, 2026
Brooklyn Nets center
Day'Ron Sharpe (thumb) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Sharpe will make his first absence since mid-January while he deals with a thumb sprain.
Nicolas Claxton could see an increased role as the starting center without Sharpe available. Also,
Danny Wolf and
Ochai Agbaji are likely to see more minutes during Tuesday's game. Claxton is the best fantasy option here, but Wolf and Agbaji are decent streaming choices with Sharpe and
Ziaire Williams (illness) out.
--Andy WebbSource: NBA Injury Report
March 10, 2026
Milwaukee Bucks forward/center
Bobby Portis (back) is ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He wasn't on the initial injury report, but will ultimately sit out due to a back contusion. The Bucks are going to be thin at the center spot with
Jericho Sims (knee) also sidelined. The absence of these two should mean
Pete Nance will fill in as the primary backup to
Myles Turner. Nance finished with six points, three rebounds, and two steals across 22 minutes on Sunday. He'll offer some deep league value with the Bucks being shorthanded on Tuesday.
--Andy WebbSource: NBA Injury Report
March 10, 2026
Brooklyn Nets forward
Michael Porter Jr. (rest) is back in the mix ahead of Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Porter is returning to the rotation after sitting out Monday's game for rest purposes. Over his last 10 games, Porter is averaging 21.5 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 2.7 assists across 31.5 minutes per game. Porter has scored nearly 50 total points with 26 rebounds over his last two games. Fantasy managers should double-check their lineups and make sure he's in there ahead of tip-off. The return of Porter should mean reduced roles for
Danny Wolf and possibly
Ochai Agbaji.
