Atlanta Hawks center
Jock Landale is available to play on Wednesday against the Orlando Magic. Landale sheds a questionable tag and is set to suit up after sitting out Monday's game against the Celtics due to an illness. With the 30-year-old big man back in action,
Mouhamed Gueye could fall out of the rotation during tonight's contest in Orlando.

According to Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com, Orlando Magic forward
Franz Wagner (ankle) is available for Wednesday's matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. Wagner has appeared in just four contests since December 7 due to a left high-ankle sprain. However, he's been cleared to return this evening after missing 22 games. The 24-year-old is averaging 21.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.1 steals in 31.8 minutes across 28 appearances this season. Wagner will likely play under a minutes restriction initially, but he remains a strong fantasy option with the potential to quickly regain his usual role.

Philadelphia 76ers center
Joel Embiid (illness) won't suit up against the Washington Wizards on Wednesday due to an illness. Embiid played through the illness on Monday against Miami, collecting 26 points, seven rebounds, three assists and one block across 34 minutes. However, he posted on X that the organization was shutting him down for tonight's game.
Adem Bona and
Andre Drummond will see expanded roles with Embiid back out of action.

Denver Nuggets forward
Cameron Johnson (back) isn't on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's encounter with the Utah Jazz. Back spasms prevented Johnson from finishing Sunday's game against Golden State, but he won't have to miss additional time due to the issue. However,
Spencer Jones (hamstring) and
Zeke Nnaji (hip), who both also exited early on Sunday, won't be available against Utah. Considering those absences, Johnson could see increased minutes on Wednesday in a highly favorable fantasy matchup.

Denver Nuggets forward/center
Aaron Gordon (calf) is probable for Wednesday's meeting with the Utah Jazz. After he missed Sunday's win over Golden State due to left calf tightness, Gordon was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.
Peyton Watson was part of the starting unit against the Warriors and is likely heading back to the bench on Wednesday night. Still, Watson will maintain an important role and hinted on Tuesday that he might see more playing time against Utah after being recently limited to around 20 minutes per game.

Sacramento Kings guard
Malik Monk (shoulder) is not listed on the injury report for Wednesday's contest against the Toronto Raptors. A shoulder issue kept Monk sidelined on Sunday when the Kings faced Brooklyn. Monk had a pair of 30-point efforts last month, but he has recently acted more as a playmaker. The 28-year-old has averaged 7.4 assists across his last three appearances, adding 13.2 points in 27.0 minutes per game. On Wednesday, Monk will eat into the minutes of
Daeqwon Plowden,
DaQuan Jeffries, and
Killian Hayes.

Sacramento Kings guard/forward
DeMar DeRozan (hamstring) will play on Wednesday night against the Toronto Raptors. The veteran sat out Sunday's loss to Brooklyn due to a hamstring injury, but the team has removed him from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's action. It's a special matchup for DeRozan against the team he represented for nine years at the start of his career. Due to injuries, the Kings have very little quality left on the roster, so DeRozan should have free rein on offense. He has averaged 27.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 7.0 assists over his last two outings.

Miami Heat forward
Andrew Wiggins (toe) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Boston Celtics. Miami won't have
Norman Powell (illness) available and may be without another key contributor as Wiggins nurses a toe issue. If Wiggins can't play, the Heat could bring
Simone Fontecchio or
Kel'el Ware to the starting lineup. The two have made minimal impact in recent games, but a starting role would be a big boost for them.
Pelle Larsson and
Jaime Jaquez Jr. might also absorb some of Wiggins' minutes.

April 1, 2026
Miami Heat guard/forward
Norman Powell (illness) will remain out for a third consecutive game on Wednesday against the Boston Celtics. The first-year All-Star is battling an illness, meaning the Heat must manage without their leading scorer.
Pelle Larsson has done a good job filling in for Powell in the starting lineup, averaging 17.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 3.0 assists over the last two games. Meanwhile,
Jaime Jaquez Jr.'s workload has increased off the bench, reaching 32 minutes in Monday's win over Philadelphia.

Brooklyn Nets forward/center
Danny Wolf (ankle) doesn't have a timeline for his return, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints reports. He is in a walking boot due to an ankle injury and has missed five games. Before he was hurt, Wolf's role had grown on the team. He averaged 10.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 2.7 assists in March. Unfortunately, Wolf's rookie campaign might be over, as the Nets face only six more games.
Josh Minott and
Chaney Johnson are the main beneficiaries of Wolf's absence.

Los Angeles Lakers forward
LeBron James (foot) will play Tuesday against Cleveland after initially being listed as questionable for injury management. Even at 41, he continues to deliver steady fantasy production, averaging 16.4 points, 8.0 rebounds, 8.6 assists and 1.0 steals in 35.6 minutes over his last five games. He is also coming off a 21-point triple-double Monday, another reminder of his all-around impact. James' availability keeps
Luka Doncic and
Austin Reaves in their usual roles, and he remains an automatic fantasy start whenever he is active.

Boston Celtics forward
Jayson Tatum (Achilles) is set to play Wednesday against Miami after sitting out Monday for routine injury management on the second night of a back-to-back. The star forward has averaged 21.2 points, 2.8 three-pointers, 9.8 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.0 steals in 32.9 minutes over his last five games, reinforcing his must-start status in all formats. Tatum's return should push
Jordan Walsh back to the bench while allowing
Jaylen Brown and
Derrick White to resume their usual offensive roles. Tatum remains a clear lineup anchor with Boston expected to lean on him offensively.

March 31, 2026
Boston Celtics forward/center
Neemias Queta (thumb) is available for Wednesday's game against Miami after missing one contest. The 26-year-old has been a steady interior presence recently, averaging 10.2 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 2.0 assists in 26.2 minutes over his last five games, giving him some deep-league appeal for rebounds and field goal percentage. His return likely pushes
Luka Garza back to a smaller reserve role after Garza produced 20 points as a spot starter. With Boston thin at center, Queta has a real opportunity to maintain a steady role. His scoring can be inconsistent, but his rebounding and interior production give him some reliability in deeper formats.

Golden State Warriors guard
De'Anthony Melton (thumb) will miss Wednesday's game against San Antonio due to a left thumb strain, opening extra backcourt minutes.
Gary Payton II (knee), if cleared, could be the main beneficiary after posting 16 points and five rebounds in 21 minutes last game and providing steady two-way production recently.
Pat Spencer may also see more playmaking opportunities after recording eight assists in 24 minutes.
Will Richard could re-enter the rotation as well. Melton's absence opens some deep-league and DFS streaming options, but there isn't an obvious one-for-one replacement in standard leagues.
--Brian DailisanSource: NBA Injury Report
March 31, 2026
Golden State Warriors forward/center
Kristaps Porzingis (illness) will not play Wednesday against San Antonio, leaving the team thin in the frontcourt. With
Al Horford (calf) and
Quinten Post (foot) also unavailable,
Draymond Green could see more time at center after finishing with 13 points, eight assists, and four rebounds in 30 minutes last game.
Omer Yurtseven may also pick up situational minutes, though his role remains uncertain. Porzingis' absence could also open extra run for
Malevy Leons. Fantasy managers should expect Golden State to rely more on Green's versatility in small-ball looks.
