San Antonio Spurs point guard
De'Aaron Fox (back) is unavailable for Wednesday's matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies. Fox will be held out of action due to lower back tightness. The 28-year-old has only missed one other game since Nov. 7. While Fox is sidelined, fantasy managers should expect plenty of production from
Keldon Johnson and
Dylan Harper. The two players combined to score a total of 42 points during Monday's 136-111 win over Miami.

Atlanta Hawks forward
Jalen Johnson (shoulder) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Detroit after sitting out the past two contests with inflammation. His status likely will be determined closer to tipoff depending on how he responds in pregame work.
Mouhamed Gueye would remain in the starting unit if Johnson sits, though his production has fluctuated. Gueye had three points, four rebounds, three assists and two steals in 22 minutes Monday after posting 16 points, 10 rebounds and three blocks in a previous start. He is a risky deep-league streamer.
Onyeka Okongwu and
Jonathan Kuminga could also see slight usage bumps if Johnson remains out.

Philadelphia 76ers center
Joel Embiid (oblique) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Chicago after missing nearly a month while recovering from a core injury. He has resumed on-court work and appears close to returning, though his availability remains uncertain. If Embiid plays,
Andre Drummond and
Adem Bona would likely lose most of their short-term streaming appeal. Bona finished with three points, five rebounds, three assists, one steal, and two blocks in 26 minutes in his last start, while Drummond had six points, four rebounds, and two assists in 19 minutes. Embiid remains a must-start if active.

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward
Kon Knueppel (back) is available to suit up Tuesday against the Sacramento Kings. The 20-year-old rookie is good to go despite dealing with a lower back issue. Knueppel has missed just one game during his first NBA campaign, averaging 19.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 3.4 assists. He will look to bounce back from a subpar outing on Saturday against Memphis, as he collected just nine points on 3-for-9 shooting.

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward
Pat Connaughton (illness) is unavailable for Tuesday's matchup with the Sacramento Kings. Connaughton will sit out tonight's game due to an illness. The 33-year-old veteran forward is averaging 2.9 points and 1.5 rebounds in 7.4 minutes per contest across 35 appearances this season. He typically isn't a fantasy factor, as he's rarely in the Hornets' rotation.

Golden State Warriors guard/forward
Moses Moody has been diagnosed with a torn patellar tendon in his left knee, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. Due to the injury, Moody's career-best season ends as he finishes with averages of 12.1 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.0 steals in 25.7 minutes per contest across 60 outings. With Moody out for the foreseeable future,
Gui Santos,
Gary Payton II and
Will Richard are all candidates for larger roles.

Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports that Golden State Warriors guard
Stephen Curry (knee) won't play on Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets as he continues recovering from right knee soreness. Curry has been out of action since the beginning of February and it's unclear when he will return. Slater also noted that the 38-year-old hopes to participate in a scrimmage in the near future and see how the knee feels. In the meantime,
Brandin Podziemski and
De'Anthony Melton should continue seeing expanded backcourt roles and streaming appeal. Both guards offer fantasy value for scoring and assists.

According to Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic, Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch said guard
Anthony Edwards (knee) is still just doing individual work as he rehabs his right knee. Edwards hasn't joined practice yet, so he definitely won't be available for Wednesday's game, and there isn't a timetable for when he will return. The 24-year-old star guard has already missed four straight games heading into Wednesday's matchup with Houston due to right knee inflammation.
Julius Randle,
Naz Reid,
Ayo Dosunmu, and
Bones Hyland will be relied upon to continue heavier workloads until Edwards returns.

Sacramento Kings guard
Killian Hayes (foot) was downgraded from questionable to out for Tuesday's game against the Hornets. He left Sunday's win early due to foot soreness and will join
Russell Westbrook (foot) on the sidelines. Without both veterans, Sacramento could let
Devin Carter and
Malik Monk carry more of the load. Carter is interesting for DFS and streaming usage since he had 16 points, five rebounds, three assists, and one steal in 27 minutes on Sunday. Monk dropped 32 points with seven threes and six assists in 30 minutes in that game as well, and he makes sense as a short-term pickup, or as a DFS play in this matchup with his former team on Tuesday.

Sacramento Kings forward/center
Precious Achiuwa (back) was downgraded from questionable to out for Tuesday's game against Charlotte. Achiuwa has been playing significant minutes lately, reaching double-digit points in six straight games, highlighted by a 14-point, 15-rebound performance against the Nets in his most recent outing. With the veteran out on Tuesday,
Dylan Cardwell,
Doug McDermott, and
Daeqwon Plowden (who was upgraded to available) will be in line for more minutes in this tough matchup against the Hornets.

Chicago Bulls head coach Billy Donovan may be leaving the team at the end of the season, according to the latest from Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times, who reports that there has been "growing momentum around the building that Donovan could step away." It has been a very tough season for the Bulls coach, both on and off the floor. He lost his father and mother-in-law within weeks of each other, and he could step away to evaluate his future after this turbulent season comes to an end. Donovan went 243-157 in five seasons with the Thunder before joining the Bulls before the 2020-21 season. He has gone 223-246 in almost six seasons in Chicago, but his future with the organization will be a key piece for the team to figure out going forward.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward
Jaylon Tyson (toe) won't play on Tuesday against the Orlando Magic. He will miss a second consecutive game due to a bone bruise on his left big toe. While Tyson has played a significant role with the Cavaliers this season, the team can handle his absence well now that
Max Strus has entered the rotation. The veteran sniper has averaged 8.8 points and 7.0 rebounds across his first four appearances of the season.
Keon Ellis, who has recently made a positive impact, will also help cover for Tyson's absence.

Cleveland Cavaliers center
Jarrett Allen (knee) won't be available for a ninth consecutive game on Tuesday against the Orlando Magic. The big man landed on the shelf with right knee tendinitis at the start of the month and isn't in the lineup for the first leg of a back-to-back on Tuesday.
Evan Mobley will continue to start at center, with
Thomas Bryant providing cover off the bench. The bench role limits Bryant's fantasy value, but he was close to a double-double in Saturday's win over New Orleans, finishing with 11 points, eight rebounds, one assist, and one block in 15 minutes.

March 24, 2026
Orlando Magic guard
Anthony Black (abdomen) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Eastern Conference clash against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He suffered an abdominal strain earlier this month and will be unavailable for a 10th consecutive game. In his absence,
Tristan da Silva will continue to start, and he will enter Tuesday's game with positive momentum. Da Silva finished as Orlando's second-highest scorer in Monday's 128-126 loss to Indiana, posting 21 points on 9-for-16 shooting. He has averaged 11.7 points and 4.3 rebounds as a starter this season.
--Taavi PailkSource: NBA Injury Report
March 24, 2026
Orlando Magic guard
Jalen Suggs (illness) will remain sidelined on Tuesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Due to illness, Suggs was unable to play on Monday night versus Indiana, and the team has also quickly ruled him out for the second game of a back-to-back.
Jevon Carter filled in for Suggs in the starting lineup against Indiana but was a massive disappointment. After scoring at least 10 points in four consecutive games, Carter managed just two points. To make things worse, he didn't register a single assist in 24 minutes. On Tuesday, Carter faces a much tougher matchup, making him a risky choice for fantasy managers.
