Ron Harper Jr. Unavailable Against Hawks
According to Keith Smith of Spotrac, Boston Celtics forward Ron Harper Jr. is unavailable for Monday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He will sit out this evening due to a right ankle sprain. The 25-year-old's next opportunity to suit up is against Miami on Wednesday. Harper out of action won't make much of an impact fantasy-wise as he's averaging just 3.6 points in 10.5 minutes per contest across 25 outings this campaign.

Jaden Ivey Waived on Monday
According to Shams Charania of ESPN, the Chicago Bulls waived guard/forward Jaden Ivey (knee) on Monday following recent social media comments.

He made 37 appearances this campaign, averaging 8.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.8 assists across 18.1 minutes per game. The 24-year-old was already set to become a restricted free agent prior to being waived.

Jalen Williams Ruled Out on Monday
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (hamstring) is unavailable for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Williams will miss the second leg of a back-to-back after posting 22 points, two assists, one rebound and one steal across 29 minutes in Sunday's 111-100 victory over the Knicks. His absence comes as no surprise, as the Thunder continue to manage his workload following a 16-game absence due to a right hamstring strain. With Williams out, Cason Wallace, Isaiah Joe and Ajay Mitchell are likely to see increased minutes and additional scoring opportunities.

Jaylen Brown Set to Suit Up Monday
Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (Achilles) is available for Monday's matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. Brown will return after missing two straight games due to left Achilles tendinitis.

Jayson Tatum Sidelined on Monday
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (Achilles) is unavailable for Monday's matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. Tatum will miss the tail end of a back-to-back after posting 32 points, five rebounds, eight assists and one block across 31 minutes in Sunday's win over Charlotte. The 28-year-old sitting out tonight's contest comes as no surprise, as he continues to be managed after returning from a right Achilles tendon tear. Fantasy managers can expect Jaylen Brown to carry more of the offensive load with Tatum sidelined.

Keyonte George, Isaiah Collier Still Out Monday
Utah Jazz guards Keyonte George (hamstring) and Isaiah Collier (hamstring) will remain out on Monday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Both players are nursing hamstring injuries and haven't been part of the lineup for a couple of weeks. George will miss his 10th consecutive game, and Collier won't be available for a seventh straight contest. Kennedy Chandler, Elijah Harkless, and Bez Mbeng will continue to see extra action on Monday. Out of the three players, Chandler has provided the most consistent fantasy production, averaging 14.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, 7.2 assists, and 1.2 steals over the past five games.

Max Strus to Sit Out Monday's Game
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Max Strus (foot) won't play on Monday against the Utah Jazz. Strus torched the Miami Heat with eight triples and 29 points in Friday's win, but he continues to manage a foot injury and will take the night off on Monday. Cleveland will likely reinsert him into the lineup on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Lakers. Strus has been coming off the bench, so we should see the rest of the reserves take on most of his minutes on Monday.

Jarrett Allen Won't Play Monday Night
Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup with the Utah Jazz. This isn't surprising, given that it's the first game of a back-to-back and Allen has just returned from a knee injury. He was limited to 18 minutes on Friday versus Miami but still collected a double-double, scoring 18 points and grabbing 10 rebounds. Keon Ellis could rejoin the starting unit on Monday, and Thomas Bryant may pick up a few extra minutes off the bench.

Bub Carrington Exits Early Sunday Due to Cramping
Washington Wizards guard Bub Carrington didn't finish Sunday's loss to the Portland Trail Blazers due to muscle cramping. He left the action in the third quarter, wrapping up his night with 11 points, two rebounds, four assists, one steal, and four turnovers in 22 minutes. Since this was the first game of a back-to-back for Washington, Carrington might sit out Monday's contest against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Will Richard Won't Suit Up Sunday
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Will Richard (heel) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Denver Nuggets. His run of 10 consecutive appearances will come to an end due to a sore left heel. Richard started in Golden State's most recent game but made a limited impact in 25 minutes. De'Anthony Melton (knee) is expected to return to the first unit on Sunday and will look to finish the month strongly. He has notched 14.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.8 steals per game in March.

Seth Curry Active Against Nuggets
Golden State Warriors guard Seth Curry (adductor) will be active on Sunday against the Denver Nuggets. He has recovered from a left adductor strain and could make his first appearance since March 13. Since joining the Warriors in December, Curry has taken the floor just four times. He has finished two of the games scoreless, while netting 27 points in the other two contests. Curry has impressed with a 4-for-7 success rate from deep. His ability to hit threes could be handy for the Warriors in a matchup against a team that allows the eighth-most three-point attempts in the league.

Quinten Post Back in Action Sunday Night
Golden State Warriors center Quinten Post (foot) has been cleared to return to the lineup on Sunday against the Denver Nuggets. He has been managing a foot injury lately, missing three games. Post will add frontcourt depth to a Warriors team that currently can't count on Al Horford (calf). The 26-year-old has a tough matchup against Nikola Jokic on Sunday night. In his previous three clashes with the Nuggets this season, Post has posted averages of 4.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in 15.0 minutes per game.
