Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (hip, back) will suit up for Monday's game against Memphis. He didn't play on Saturday versus Portland because of back and hip issues. However, truth be told, the Nuggets did fine without him. As always, Jokic is a must-start for any fantasy format. But if Denver builds a big lead over the shorthanded Grizzlies, he may spend more time on the bench. With that said, Jokic's return means DeAndre Jordan will head back to the bench.

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (Achilles) is probable for Tuesday's game in Milwaukee. The Achilles issue isn't anything new, and Davis will likely continue to deal with it for the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign, including the playoffs, assuming the Lakers advance. But he's only missed four games this season, with his most recent absence occurring over a month ago. With Los Angeles commencing a six-game road trip, there's a chance the 31-year-old could get a night off during that stretch. However, if LeBron James (ankle), who is doubtful for Tuesday, doesn't suit up, Davis would be a lock for all fantasy lineups.

Los Angeles Lakers guard D'Angelo Russell isn't listed on the injury report heading into Tuesday's meeting with the Milwaukee Bucks. He was ruled out shortly before Sunday's win over the Indiana Pacers because of a non-COVID-illness. As a result, Spencer Dinwiddie started and finished with 26 points, five assists, two blocks, and one steal. With LeBron James (ankle) not expected to suit up on Tuesday night, Russell will command attention from DFS managers, considering he could smash his value. At the same time, James' anticipated absence should keep the door open for Dinwiddie to remain involved enough to stay on the fantasy radar.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is doubtful for Tuesday's game in Milwaukee. The Lakers will begin their six-game road trip. However, the club is expected to be without the multi-time MVP. The ankle injury has bothered him all year, so he could be getting a night off ahead of Wednesday's matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies. Anthony Davis (Achilles), who is probable, should pick up most of the slack on the offensive end if James is officially sidelined on Tuesday. But D'Angelo Russell and Austin Reaves will also warrant extra attention from DFS participants.

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (hand) won't play in Monday's matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. Jaylen Brown (ankle), Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring), and Jayson Tatum (ankle) missed time recently, so it's White's turn to get the night off. There's nothing to suggest his hand sprain is severe, meaning he could be back in the lineup for the rematch on Thursday evening. With Jrue Holiday (shoulder) also sidelined, Payton Pritchard and Sam Hauser are expected to slide into the starting lineup, giving them a higher ceiling for fantasy managers.

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (foot) is questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Nursing a right plantar fascia strain, Gordon is a late addition to the injury report. With four Denver starters listed as questionable, there could be plenty of vacated usage on Monday. The 28-year-old playmaking forward has been a top-100 player in points leagues across his latest seven appearances, averaging 14.1 points on 55.7% shooting from the floor, 6.9 boards, and 4.4 assists during 32.5 minutes. There likely wouldn't be a clear fantasy beneficiary of Gordon's absence, but Christian Braun and Peyton Watson would be in line for an uptick in playing time at power forward. The 24-47 Grizzlies pose an unimposing matchup for the defending champions, but it's too early to determine at this juncture how the rotation might shape up for the Western Conference-leading Nuggets.

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (groin) is available for Monday's game versus the Dallas Mavericks. A strained right groin sat Clarkson down for Utah's previous six matchups, but the 31-year-old microwave scorer will play in an advantageous setup against a Dallas team giving up the fourth-most DraftKings points to opposing shooting guards in 2023-24. This contest's implied total is also set at 238.5 points, the largest on Monday's 11-game slate, so a high-scoring affair could be in store. Clarkson was heating up in his last four games before going down, averaging 23.0 points, 4.3 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 2.0 triples, and 1.5 steals amid this stretch from March 4 to March 12. It wouldn't be surprising if the 29-42 Jazz elected to monitor the veteran's minutes, however, during his first game back in the mix.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (quadriceps) is available for Monday's tilt versus the Dallas Mavericks. Markkanen has alternated appearances for Utah in their past four contests due to a right quadriceps contusion but is suiting up for a favorable matchup against Dallas, who are surrendering the fifth-most DraftKings points to enemy power forwards. A 238.5-point implied total signifies the highest figure on Monday's 11-game slate, so this could be a high-scoring meeting. The 26-year-old three-level scorer is a must-start across all fantasy leagues when active, but he's really struggled to shoot the ball since returning from the All-Star break. Over his last seven showings, Markkanen is averaging 20.6 points on 39.6% shooting from the field, 6.0 boards, 1.3 steals, and 2.4 three-pointers. Beware of the 29-42 Jazz giving him random rest days down the stretch of a non-contending campaign as well.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (quadriceps) is seen as questionable for Monday's game against Dallas. Following his return from a quadriceps injury, the team has kept Markkanen out from a couple of games for injury management purposes. Considering he didn't play on Saturday versus Houston, it's likely Utah's top scorer will suit up on Monday, but fantasy managers will have to wait for official clearance. Markkanen's last appearance came against the Mavericks, and he had a very tough time, going 1-for-11 from downtown and finishing with 21 points on 30 percent overall shooting.

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (groin) is questionable for Monday's matchup against the Mavericks. He's been out for six games with a groin strain, but it looks like Utah's microwave scorer could be back in the lineup on Monday. The comeback would come at a good time because the Jazz have just lost Kris Dunn to a suspension. Clarkson is the third-leading scorer on the team with 17.4 points and leads the squad with 5.0 assists. He's a high-usage player, meaning there will be fewer shots available to Keyonte George, Collin Sexton, and Lauri Markkanen (quadriceps) if he returns.

Utah Jazz point guard Kris Dunn has been suspended for two games. He's received the punishment for getting into a scuffle with Houston's Jabari Smith Jr. on Saturday night, with fists being thrown. The suspension forces Dunn to miss Monday's matchup versus Dallas and Wednesday's clash with San Antonio. He will be eligible to return to action on Friday, ironically in a rematch against Houston. Dunn has started four of Utah's last five games and is averaging 5.3 points and 3.9 assists for the season. Kira Lewis Jr.'s role should be much bigger in the next couple of games, while Dunn's suspension will give a further boost to the fantasy value of Keyonte George and Collin Sexton, who have already benefited from Jordan Clarkson's (groin) absence.

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (shoulder) is out Monday against the Chicago Bulls due to left shoulder soreness. He had suited up for the last two Wizards tilts. Patrick Baldwin and Corey Kispert will likely see more action with the 28-year-old Kuzma sidelined. Washington could have seven players out with injuries for Monday's matchup, with 27-year-old guard Jordan Poole (ankle) listed as questionable.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Maxi Kleber (knee) is questionable for Monday's tilt with Utah due to left knee soreness. If the big man is unavailable, Dereck Lively and Daniel Gafford would likely see more action than usual. Kleber has played in just 33 contests this season, averaging 20.9 minutes per game while posting 4.4 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.6 blocks. He should not be considered an option for fantasy play on Monday.

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is expected to play against the Wizards on Monday. Although his name has been added to the injury report due to a previous lower leg injury, it is unlikely that he will miss any playing time. The Bulls will likely confirm his availability closer to the start of the game. On Saturday versus the Celtics, the 30-year-old posted 14 points, three rebounds, three assists and one steal in a 124-113 loss.

Los Angeles Lakers center/forward Anthony Davis (Achilles) has been upgraded to active, as expected, against the Indiana Pacers on Sunday night. The superstar big man was already listed as probable, so the fact that he was upgraded doesn't come as a surprise. The offensive load grew bigger once D'Angelo Russell (illness) was a late scratch, but at least the team gets LeBron James (ankle) who was originally listed as questionable. Davis is a must-start fantasy asset in all formats and all league sizes. He's registered 15 double-doubles in his last 16 games played.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has officially been upgraded from questionable to active on Monday night and will suit up against the Indiana Pacers. The King will make his sixth consecutive start despite the ankle issue he continues to deal with each night. After D'Angelo Russell got the late scratch from the lineup, James' playmaking and ball-handling will be even more important. This should turn into another big night for James and Anthony Davis as they try to remain in the playoff race and avoid the play-in tournament. James is a must-start candidate in all fantasy formats.

Washington Wizards guard Tyus Jones (back) has been ruled out of his sixth game in a row while suffering from a back issue. The former Timberwolf first experienced the back sprain after the game against the Houston Rockets on March 14 and then missed the first few games that he's missed all season. Jordan Poole (ankle) has taken over as the starting point guard in his absence, but Poole is now questionable for this contest as well. If he's unable to play too, Jared Butler is the most likely candidate to get the starting nod. Johnny Davis would be next in line off of the bench.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is questionable heading into Monday's game versus the Grizzlies. He tweaked his ankle a few nights ago and wasn't available on Saturday night against Portland. Reggie Jackson took his spot in the lineup and finished with 23 points, five assists, and two steals in 29 minutes. There's a good chance Murray won't be back for Monday's contest, considering the oft-injured guard is needed for a deep postseason run. If that's the case, Jackson will remain an enticing DFS value option.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) has been listed as doubtful again for Monday night. He continues to deal with a strained hamstring which has caused him to miss seven games so far. There remains no reason to rush him back to the floor since the Blazers are looking to get another top pick in next year's NBA Draft, so they'll likely err on the side of caution for the rest of the season. The Blazers' rotation hasn't been set in stone for most of the year after a lot of injury issues, but it looks like Kris Murray and Toumani Camara will be the biggest benefactors while Grant misses more time.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (back, hip) is questionable for Monday's game against the Grizzlies. The Nuggets have a slight edge over the Timberwolves in the Western Conference standings, so the team can't afford to not have their top player on the floor. However, considering Memphis is one of the worst teams in the league, Jokic might get another night off. If that's the case, he'd likely return on Wednesday against Phoenix. But until the multi-time MVP is back on the floor, DeAndre Jordan, averaging 16.0 points, 10.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals, and 1.0 blocks in two starts this season, would be an ideal DFS value option.
