Brooklyn Nets center
Day'Ron Sharpe (illness) is unavailable for Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The 24-year-old big man is feeling under the weather and has a throat contusion. During his last appearance on Sunday, Sharpe finished with five points, five rebounds, and four assists across 19 minutes in a 124-102 loss to the Bulls. When Sharpe is available, he doesn't offer much fantasy value, averaging 17.9 minutes per contest.

Phoenix Suns guard
Jalen Green (hamstring) will make his return to the court for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers, according to Duane Rankin. Green will miss the first leg of the back-to-back set, but is expected to suit up for the second contest. Green hasn't played since November 8 due to a right hamstring strain. The expectation is that Green is going to be limited for a few games until he gets back to full speed. His return to the court should shift
Collin Gillespie back to the bench, while
Grayson Allen and
Jordan Goodwin see fewer minutes. Fantasy managers who have been stashing Green for the last few months will finally be able to get him back in their lineups on Tuesday.

Golden State Warriors forward/center
Draymond Green (ankle) has been downgraded to out ahead of Monday's game against the Miami Heat. Green was originally probable, but got downgraded to questionable later in the day. Now, Green will officially sit this game out due to a right ankle sprain. The Warriors will likely use a committee approach to fill the void in the rotation.
Quinten Post,
Trayce Jackson-Davis, and
Al Horford are all candidates to see extended playing time. Among the trio, Horford has been the most consistent contributor among the big men. Horford is worth a look as a streaming option for Monday's slate with Green on the bench.

Brooklyn Nets point guard
Egor Demin (foot) is unavailable for Monday's matchup with the Phoenix Suns. He will miss the second half of a back-to-back for maintenance due to left foot plantar fasciitis, after he played in three straight games. On Sunday versus Chicago, the 19-year-old posted 11 points, one assist and one rebound across 22 minutes. While Demin is out of action, 26-year-old guard
Tyrese Martin could be assigned extra minutes, but will likely not factor into fantasy during tonight's tilt.

Phoenix Suns guard
Devin Booker (ankle) is available to play ahead of Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Booker will shed the questionable tag despite dealing with ankle soreness. On Saturday, the 29-year-old star guard finished with 27 points, four assists, four rebounds and one steal across 38 minutes in a 106-99 win over the Knicks. Even with the injury, Booker should log plenty of minutes and continue to be a force for fantasy managers during tonight's tilt in Brooklyn.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward
Paul George (knee) is unavailable for Monday's matchup with the Indiana Pacers. George will sit out tonight's contest due to left knee injury management after he had played in three consecutive games. He is averaging 15.9 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.3 steals across 29.8 minutes per game across 23 outings this campaign. With George out of action, more scoring opportunities will likely come to
Quentin Grimes and Kelly Oubre as they will have heavier workloads in the Sixers frontcourt this evening.

Golden State Warriors forward/center
Draymond Green (ankle) has been downgraded to questionable ahead of Monday's matchup with the Miami Heat. The 35-year-old veteran has played in eight of nine Warriors games in January, but with his status downgraded to questionable, he is in danger of missing tonight's tilt. If Green is unable to suit up, Golden State's frontcourt will have to rely on
Quinten Post,
Al Horford, and
Trayce Jackson-Davis to take on extra minutes.

January 19, 2026
Golden State Warriors guard
De'Anthony Melton (knee) will sit out the front end of the team's back-to-back set, with his next opportunity to play coming Tuesday against Toronto. His absence nudges minutes and usage across a crowded wing rotation.
Brandin Podziemski stands to benefit most after producing 16 points, six rebounds, and seven assists in 30 minutes on Friday, while
Buddy Hield,
Gary Payton II, and
Will Richard should also see added run. The rotation remains fluid, keeping all three as situational fantasy options.

Atlanta Hawks forward
Zaccharie Risacher (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Milwaukee as he continues to recover from a bruised left knee. His ongoing absence keeps
Vit Krejci in the starting lineup, though the fantasy return has been modest. Krejci has averaged 5.4 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 1.2 assists across his last five starts while logging 21.9 minutes per game. The minutes are stable, but the low usage and limited peripheral stats cap him as a deep-league option until Risacher is cleared.

Dallas Mavericks center
Daniel Gafford (ankle) will sit out Monday against New York, extending his absence to three games as he continues to work through a right ankle sprain, with Thursday against Golden State next on the schedule. Dallas remains thin up front with
Anthony Davis (finger) and
P.J. Washington (personal) sidelined.
Dwight Powell logged 10 points and eight rebounds in 27 minutes Friday, while
Moussa Cisse posted 10 points and 13 rebounds in 23 minutes earlier this week. Both remain deep-league options with volatile roles.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center
P.J. Washington (personal) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against New York and will miss a second straight game while addressing a personal matter, with Thursday against Golden State next on the schedule. His continued absence leaves
Naji Marshall with increased playing time, and the versatile wing logged 16 points, five rebounds, and six assists in 29 minutes Saturday. Marshall's consistent minutes and multi-category contributions give him short-term fantasy relevance while Washington remains sidelined.

January 19, 2026
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward
Sam Merrill (hand) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Oklahoma City, marking his second straight absence with a right-hand sprain, though he remains day-to-day. With
Darius Garland (toe) also sidelined, Cleveland's backcourt rotation stays thin, and usage is redistributed.
Jaylon Tyson continues to benefit most, coming off a 39-point outing in 38 minutes Friday while handling a larger offensive role.
Lonzo Ball and
Craig Porter Jr. should see added minutes off the bench but remain situational fantasy plays due to volatile production.
--Brian DailisanSource: NBA Injury Report
January 19, 2026
Oklahoma City Thunder forward
Jalen Williams (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Cleveland after exiting Saturday early, with additional testing confirming a right hamstring strain and no clear return timeline. His absence opens perimeter minutes and usage, pushing
Ajay Mitchell into a larger role after he posted 15 points in 28 minutes Friday.
Aaron Wiggins offers scoring upside, while
Cason Wallace and
Alex Caruso provide defensive stats with volatile offensive returns. Mitchell profiles as the strongest short-term add.
--Brian DailisanSource: NBA Injury Report
January 19, 2026
Oklahoma City Thunder center
Isaiah Hartenstein (calf) will not play Monday against Cleveland as he continues to rehab a right soleus strain, with Wednesday in Milwaukee representing his next possible checkpoint. With
Jalen Williams (hamstring) also sidelined, the Thunder will continue to lean heavily on
Chet Holmgren, who logged 14 points, 11 rebounds, and five blocks in 30 minutes Friday.
Jaylin Williams has seen a steadier run off the bench and profiles as a deep-league streamer, while
Kenrich Williams remains volatile and matchup dependent.
--Brian DailisanSource: NBA Injury Report
January 19, 2026
Atlanta Hawks forward/center
Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Milwaukee, extending his absence to six straight contests as he continues to manage left Achilles tendinitis, with his next opportunity to return coming Wednesday. The continued absence keeps
Onyeka Okongwu entrenched as the primary center, and he has delivered strong fantasy value with 21 points, seven rebounds, and three assists in 33 minutes Friday.
Mouhamed Gueye remains the backup, but his role is limited, making Okongwu a clear hold while Porzingis remains sidelined.
