Cleveland Cavaliers guard
Keon Ellis will start Monday against Utah with
Jarrett Allen (knee),
Max Strus (foot),
Dean Wade (ankle), and
Jaylon Tyson (toe) all sidelined. Ellis has shown he can chip in steals with modest scoring when given extended minutes, including a recent start in which he produced 17 points and two steals across 37 minutes. He also added 10 points, two threes, two assists, and one steal in 25 minutes off the bench his last time out. Ellis looks like a reasonable short-term pickup in deeper leagues for anyone needing defensive stats.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard
Craig Porter Jr. (groin) is available for Monday's game against Utah after missing seven games with a left groin strain. The 26-year-old logged limited minutes before the injury, averaging 3.0 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 14.8 minutes across his recent appearances, and he is unlikely to see enough run to matter in most fantasy formats. His return mainly adds depth behind
James Harden and
Dennis Schroder. Porter can remain on waiver wires, with
Sam Merrill and
Keon Ellis still ahead in the rotation.

Utah Jazz guard
Elijah Harkless (hamstring) will not play Monday against Cleveland due to hamstring soreness, thinning an already depleted backcourt. With
Isaiah Collier (hamstring) and
Keyonte George (hamstring) also sidelined,
Kennedy Chandler could see more ballhandling duties after posting 11 points, three rebounds, and eight assists in 24 minutes last game.
Bez Mbeng may also pick up extra run after contributing five points, three rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 17 minutes. Chandler is worth a look for managers needing assists in deeper leagues, while Mbeng is more of a wait-and-see option unless minutes climb.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward
RJ Barrett (shoulder) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against Detroit and is expected to play through left shoulder soreness. The 25-year-old has averaged 18.8 points, 1.4 three-pointers, 4.0 rebounds, and 4.0 assists in 27.5 minutes over his last five games and should continue handling significant usage with
Immanuel Quickley (foot) sidelined. Barrett also delivered 24 points, three rebounds, three assists, and three steals in 27 minutes Sunday.
Jamal Shead and
Scottie Barnes should continue sharing playmaking duties, but Barrett remains a must-start option for points and secondary assists.

March 30, 2026
Toronto Raptors guard/forward
Brandon Ingram (heel) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Detroit due to ongoing right heel soreness after sitting out the previous contest. If he remains out,
Jamal Shead could continue starting after producing 12 points, two rebounds, 10 assists, and three steals in 23 minutes last game, giving him short-term value for assists and steals.
Ja'Kobe Walter added 11 points, three three-pointers, and six rebounds in 28 minutes, while
Gradey Dick chipped in 11 points off the bench.
Scottie Barnes would also remain a primary offensive hub if Ingram sits again.

Toronto Raptors guard
Immanuel Quickley (foot) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Detroit as he continues to manage right foot plantar fasciitis. His absence should keep second-year guard
Jamal Shead in the starting lineup after he averaged 11.7 points, 8.1 assists, 2.1 rebounds, and 1.3 steals across 10 starts this season, making him a viable assists streamer in standard leagues.
Scottie Barnes should continue to see elevated playmaking duties, while
RJ Barrett (shoulder), if cleared, could also take on more usage. Quickley remains a hold in most formats, though fantasy managers in shallow playoff leagues may need healthier options.

Dallas Mavericks forward
Caleb Martin (heel) will remain sidelined for Monday's matchup against Minnesota, extending his recent stretch on the inactive list due to a right heel issue. The veteran wing last appeared March 15, finishing with five points, one rebound, and one three in eight minutes, and he has not held a meaningful fantasy role even when healthy. His continued absence mainly preserves rotation minutes for
Khris Middleton and
Klay Thompson, while
Brandon Williams could also maintain deep-league streaming appeal. Martin can remain on waiver wires outside of very deep formats.

March 30, 2026
Memphis Grizzlies forward
Olivier-Maxence Prosper (wrist) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The second-year forward is dealing with right wrist soreness that will keep him out of this contest. His absence from the rotation should mean more minutes for
Taylor Hendricks and
Tyler Burton. Between the two, Hendricks is the better streaming choice for Monday's slate. Hendricks offers some deep league value and could be worth a look as a cheaper DFS option for Monday's slate.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center
Marvin Bagley III (shoulder) will not play Monday against Minnesota due to a left shoulder impingement after posting 26 points, nine rebounds, three assists, one steal, and one block in 27 minutes Friday. His absence should lock
Daniel Gafford into heavy minutes and keep
Dwight Powell in the rotation after Powell produced four points, five rebounds, and three assists in 21 minutes last game. Gafford, who has averaged 17.4 points and 10.4 rebounds over his last five, profiles as the safer fantasy play, while Powell is only a deep-league streamer for managers chasing rebounds.

March 30, 2026
Dallas Mavericks center
Daniel Gafford (shoulder) is available for Monday's game against Minnesota after missing two contests with a right shoulder sprain. He should immediately reclaim starting duties and push
Dwight Powell back to a reserve role. Gafford has averaged 17.4 points, 10.4 rebounds, and 1.6 assists in 26.4 minutes over his last five games, giving him solid value in field goal percentage, rebounds, and blocks during the fantasy finals. His return gives Dallas a needed interior presence and makes Powell more of a fringe option only in very deep formats. Gafford should be rostered wherever available.

March 30, 2026
Memphis Grizzlies guard
Walter Clayton Jr. (ankle) is available to play ahead of Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Despite a left ankle injury, Clayton will suit up and figures to play a significant role in the rotation on Monday. He finished with seven points, six assists, and two steals across 30 minutes of play on Saturday.
Ty Jerome (ankle) remains out, which means Clayton should continue seeing a larger role in the rotation. He's mostly a deep league option and could offer some cheap DFS value for Monday's slate.
--Andy WebbSource: NBA Injury Report
March 30, 2026
Detroit Pistons forward
Ausar Thompson (ankle) is available to play ahead of Monday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Thompson will shed the questionable tag and suit up for this game despite dealing with an ankle issue. It's the front end of a back-to-back set, so Thompson could sit out on Tuesday. Fantasy managers should check back for an update on his status ahead of that game against the Toronto Raptors. Thompson will likely be asked to take on a larger role offensively with
Tobias Harris (hip),
Duncan Robinson (hip), and
Jalen Duren (knee) all sidelined. He should be a solid fantasy option with the Pistons shorthanded for Monday's slate.

March 30, 2026
Dallas Mavericks forwards
P.J. Washington (illness) and
Naji Marshall (illness) will not play Monday against Minnesota, leaving Dallas thin across the forward spots. Their absences should open short-term streaming appeal for
Khris Middleton and
Klay Thompson, who could see expanded minutes and usage. Middleton posted 11 points, one three-pointer, three rebounds, and five assists in 18 minutes in his last appearance, while Thompson logged seven points, two threes, two rebounds, three assists, and one block in 18 minutes last game.
Brandon Williams and
Ryan Nembhard could also see deeper-league value if Dallas leans smaller.
--Brian DailisanSource: NBA Injury Report
March 30, 2026
Detroit Pistons center
Jalen Duren (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. As expected, Duren will sit out the front end of this back-to-back set due to rest purposes. The expectation is that Duren will return for Tuesday's game, but fantasy managers should check back ahead of that game to confirm. The Pistons are shorthanded right now, so
Paul Reed figures to play a big role during Monday's game. When he gets significant playing time, Reed is usually productive, so fantasy managers should be able to trust him as a streaming option here.
Ron Holland II and
Javonte Green should also see increased roles in the rotation on Monday.
--Andy WebbSource: NBA Injury Report
March 30, 2026
Minnesota Timberwolves guard
Anthony Edwards (knee) is available for Monday's game against Dallas after missing six games with right knee inflammation. The 24-year-old averaged 29.0 points, 3.0 threes, 4.2 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks across his last five while logging 34.4 minutes, making him an automatic start during the fantasy finals. His return should reduce the streaming value of
Mike Conley,
Bones Hyland,
Jaylen Clark and
Terrence Shannon Jr., while
Julius Randle may lose a bit of offensive burden. Edwards belongs in all active lineups given his top-tier usage and category coverage.
