New York Knicks guard
Landry Shamet (knee) will miss a third consecutive game on Thursday against the Charlotte Hornets. The veteran hurt his right knee last week, and it might take a bit of time until Shamet is ready to play again. In the meantime,
Jordan Clarkson and
Jose Alvarado have a chance to make a bigger impact in the rotation. Of the two, Clarkson has performed better in recent games, coming off a 10-point, five-assist outing against the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward
Vit Krejci (calf) won't be part of the action on Wednesday night against the Milwaukee Bucks. He will sit out a sixth consecutive game due to a left calf contusion. Portland initially listed Krejci as questionable for the contest, so his return looks to be close and might happen later this week. The Trail Blazers will return to action on Friday against the Dallas Mavericks. Krejci has averaged 7.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 19.9 minutes since joining the team from Atlanta on Feb. 1.

Denver Nuggets forward
Peyton Watson (hamstring) will play on Wednesday against the Dallas Mavericks. Late last week, Watson returned from a hamstring injury, and Denver decided not to use him on Tuesday when the team kicked off a back-to-back with a victory over Phoenix. Watson's return aligns with
Aaron Gordon's (hamstring) exit. He will help cover for his absence, along with
Spencer Jones and
Cameron Johnson. Despite missing six weeks, Watson was in fine form on Sunday against Portland, notching 14 points, six rebounds, and three assists in 20 minutes.

Denver Nuggets forward/center
Aaron Gordon (hamstring) has been ruled out for the second leg of a back-to-back on Wednesday night against the Dallas Mavericks. He carried a questionable tag on the initial injury report. Gordon hasn't played in both games of a back-to-back set since January, so his absence was expected against Dallas.
Peyton Watson (hamstring) sat out Tuesday's win over Phoenix and will be Gordon's natural replacement in the lineup.

Toronto Raptors center
Jakob Poeltl (back) will suit up on Wednesday night against the Los Angeles Clippers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports. The Austrian big man has shaken off a questionable tag and will return from a one-game absence. As a result,
Sandro Mamukelashvili will land back on the bench, while
Collin Murray-Boyles' fantasy potential will also be limited. Poeltl has averaged 11.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.2 blocks in 26.5 minutes since the All-Star break.

March 25, 2026
Toronto Raptors guard
Immanuel Quickley (foot) will remain out for a second consecutive game on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Clippers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports. The explosive guard is dealing with right foot plantar fasciitis and was downgraded from questionable to doubtful in the afternoon.
Jamal Shead replaced Quickley in the starting unit on Monday against Utah and is likely to get the nod again. As a starter, Shead has recorded 12.1 points, 2.4 rebounds, 8.4 assists, and 1.0 steals per game this season.

March 25, 2026
Toronto Raptors guard/forward
Brandon Ingram (heel) will return from a one-game absence on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Clippers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports. He sat out Monday's win over Utah due to inflammation in his right heel. Meanwhile, Toronto has ruled
Immanuel Quickley (foot) out for a second consecutive game, meaning Ingram could have extra offensive duties on Wednesday night. With Ingram back,
Ja'Kobe Walter will drop to the bench, but he should remain a significant piece of the rotation.

March 25, 2026
Milwaukee Bucks center
Myles Turner (calf) will miss Wednesday's contest against the Portland Trail Blazers. He has been ruled out after the team added Turner to the injury report late with a questionable designation.
Bobby Portis (wrist) and
Kyle Kuzma (Achilles) also won't play, leaving the Bucks' frontcourt shorthanded.
Jericho Sims will likely take over from Turner as the starting center and may handle a heavy workload.

Milwaukee Bucks forwards
Bobby Portis (wrist) and
Kyle Kuzma (Achilles) won't play on Wednesday night against the Portland Trail Blazers. Kuzma will be sidelined for a second consecutive game, while Portis won't be able to help his team for the second time in three games. Without the duo,
Pete Nance,
Ousmane Dieng, and
Taurean Prince are in a position to receive more playing time on Wednesday night. Meanwhile,
Ryan Rollins and
Gary Trent Jr. will get more work on the offensive end.

March 25, 2026
Dallas Mavericks guard
Brandon Williams (concussion) will rejoin the lineup on Wednesday against the Denver Nuggets. He has missed three games due to a concussion. Williams has been an impactful bench piece for the Mavericks this season, averaging 12.8 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 3.8 assists in 22.0 minutes per game. Before being hurt on March 16 against New Orleans, Williams had scored 10-plus points in 14 consecutive outings.

Los Angeles Clippers forward
Kawhi Leonard (ankle) will be active on Wednesday night against the Toronto Raptors, Farbod Esnaashari of RTB Sports reports. He will make a third straight appearance despite dealing with a left ankle sprain. Leonard has been very effective this month, averaging 29.4 points, 5.9 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.9 steals while shooting 54.3 percent from the field. He has scored at least 25 points in 10 consecutive appearances.

March 25, 2026
Dallas Mavericks center
Daniel Gafford (shoulder) has been ruled out for Wednesday's clash against the Denver Nuggets. He was initially listed as questionable due to a right shoulder sprain. The big man suffered the injury in Monday's loss to Golden State.
Marvin Bagley III and
Dwight Powell will move up on the depth chart on Wednesday night, with one of them starting in Gafford's place. Bagley is the better fantasy option, even if he will be part of the second unit.

March 25, 2026
Portland Trail Blazers forward
Jerami Grant (foot) will play on Wednesday against the Milwaukee Bucks. The veteran has missed two games due to a sore left foot and was initially listed as questionable for Wednesday's contest. Grant's return will affect the playing time of
Sidy Cissoko and
Kris Murray. This month, Grant has been inconsistent, but he was on fire in his most recent outing, notching 26 points on 62.5 percent shooting against Minnesota. One of Grant's best offensive performances of the season was against Milwaukee earlier in the season when he had 35 points in 31 minutes.

March 25, 2026
Portland Trail Blazers center
Robert Williams III (knee) will play on Wednesday against the Milwaukee Bucks, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports. He missed the second game of a back-to-back on Monday against Brooklyn but has been cleared to return to the lineup on Wednesday. The team initially listed Williams III as questionable. Williams III will replace
Yang Hansen as
Donovan Clingan's backup. Despite coming off the bench, Williams III has averaged nearly a double-double this month, posting 9.0 points and 9.4 rebounds per game.

March 25, 2026
New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward
Trey Murphy III (ankle) is listed as questionable on the injury report ahead of the first leg of a back-to-back on Thursday against the Detroit Pistons. He is nursing a right ankle sprain and might miss his first game of the month.
Dejounte Murray (Achilles) is also questionable for Thursday's game, so the Pelicans could be without two of their leading players.
Jeremiah Fears and
Yves Missi will take on larger workloads if New Orleans isn't at full strength, while
Jordan Poole may also re-enter the rotation.
