Sun Mar 2418:18Khris Middleton Active Against OKCKhris MiddletonSFBucksFree Agent
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is good to go for Sunday's matchup against OKC. He didn't play on Thursday against the Brooklyn Nets to rest the ankle issue that kept him off the floor for over a month. However, the 32-year-old was listed as probable heading into this contest, so most had assumed he'd be available. As always, Middleton should be in any fantasy starting lineup, even with a tough matchup on the horizon.

Sun Mar 2418:12Giannis Antetokounmpo Available Against OKCGiannis AntetokounmpoSGBucksFree Agent
Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) is officially active for Sunday's battle with the Oklahoma City Thunder. The multi-time MVP recently missed two games because of a hamstring issue. But he returned for Thursday's win over the Nets, finishing with 21 points. OKC is one of the best teams in the National Basketball Association, which should negatively impact Antetokounmpo's production. However, he's still a must-start in any fantasy setup.

Sun Mar 2418:09Jrue Holiday Out Again On MondayJrue HolidayPGPelicansFree Agent
Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) remains out on Monday versus Atlanta. He'll now miss a fifth consecutive game. However, the C's have a firm hold on the No. 1 spot in the Eastern Conference, so there's no point in rushing Holiday back. With Derrick White (hand) questionable, Payton Pritchard will see an uptick in attention from fantasy managers even if he doesn't start, especially after amassing 15 points and eight assists in Sunday's win over the Bulls. Sam Hauser, coming off a 23-point effort versus Chicago, will also be an ideal DFS value option.

Sun Mar 2415:14P.J. Tucker Out Versus PhillyP.J. TuckerSFSunsFree Agent
Los Angeles Clippers forward P.J. Tucker (calf) won't play on Sunday versus the 76ers. The veteran logged at least 21 minutes in three of his previous four appearances. However, even with the increased workload, Tucker didn't offer much from a fantasy standpoint. With Norman Powell (leg) returning after missing a few games with a leg contusion, Tucker's absence will have even less of an impact on fantasy managers.

Sun Mar 2413:46Kyle Lowry Resting On SundayKyle LowryPGRaptorsFree Agent
Philadelphia 76ers guard Kyle Lowry won't play in Sunday's game against the Clippers. He logged 32 minutes in Friday's loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. But the 37-year-old isn't getting any younger, so he'll get the afternoon off before presumably returning for Monday's clash with the Sacramento Kings. But without Lowry in the mix, Nicolas Batum, averaging 5.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 2.2 assists in 33 starts during the 2023-24 campaign, may roll with the first five, giving DFS managers a value option.

Sat Mar 2321:15LeBron James Might Miss Sunday's GameLeBron JamesSFCavaliersFree Agent
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The superstar forward has been dealing with an ankle issue for what seems like months now. However, James normally plays through the issue, but fantasy managers should check back for another update ahead of tip-off. His absence would likely result in more playing time for Spencer Dinwiddie and Taurean Prince. Between the two, Dinwiddie is the better streaming option if James sits out.

Sat Mar 2321:00Jerami Grant Downgraded To OutJerami GrantSF76ersFree Agent
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) has been downgraded to out ahead of Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This isn't shocking as Grant has already missed multiple games due to this hamstring issue. Given the Blazers place in the standings, it's unlikely that they will rush Grant back on the court. Toumani Camara should continue seeing more minutes in the rotation. He finished with 11 points and seven rebounds in 32 minutes during their last game. He'll hold some deep league streaming value for Saturday's slate.

Sat Mar 2319:30Khris Middleton Likely To Play Versus OKCKhris MiddletonSFBucksFree Agent
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is probable for Sunday's clash with OKC. Middleton missed over a month because of an ankle injury. However, he's appeared in two of the Bucks' previous three games, so he got the night off on Thursday against Brooklyn. That said, the 32-year-old logged 32 minutes in his most recent game. As a result, Middleton is someone to consider for all fantasy formats, including those participating in DFS contests.

Sat Mar 2319:23Giannis Antetokounmpo Probable For SundayGiannis AntetokounmpoSGBucksFree Agent
Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) is expected to play on Sunday versus OKC. He missed two games recently because of left hamstring tendinopathy. But the multi-time MVP was back in the lineup for Thursday's win over the Brooklyn Nets. However, Antetokounmpo amassed 21 points, one of his lowest scoring outputs of the 2023-24 campaign. That said, fantasy managers should always keep Antetokounmpo on the radar. But Oklahoma City has held its own defending the paint this season, so he could be in store for another below-average showing.

Sat Mar 2319:08Jusuf Nurkic Ready For Action On SaturdayJusuf NurkicCNuggetsFree Agent
Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (eye) will be in the lineup on Saturday versus Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs. Phoenix's starting center has been upgraded from probable to available. Saturday will mark Nurkic's 14th consecutive appearance. He's been quiet offensively this month and will likely also find it tough on the attacking end against Wembanyama, but Nurkic averages 14.3 rebounds for the month with 3.9 rebounds and 1.1 blocks. He should still be productive for fantasy managers in a fast-paced game.

Sat Mar 2319:02Al Horford Available Versus ChicagoAl HorfordCHawksFree Agent
Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) will play on Saturday against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran sat out Friday's win over the Detroit Pistons. But in all fairness, the Celtics didn't need him. Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) will get the night off to rest after logging 26 minutes on Friday, so Horford will slide into the starting lineup. The 37-year-old has averaged 10.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.0 blocks in 28 starts this season, meaning he has an excellent chance to crush his DFS value.

Sat Mar 2318:11Gary Harris Unavailable On SaturdayGary HarrisSGNuggetsFree Agent
Orlando Magic guard/forward Gary Harris (foot) won't play against Sacramento on Saturday. The veteran made an early exit on Thursday versus New Orleans and has been downgraded from a questionable status ahead of Saturday's action. Caleb Houstan will cover for him in the starting unit. The 21-year-old has received multiple opportunities as a starter in 2023-24 but has made very little impact from a stats point of view and should be ignored by fantasy managers. Harris, who's nursing a right plantar fascia strain, will get his first chance to return to the court on Wednesday versus Golden State.

Sat Mar 2317:49Jerami Grant Considered Doubtful SaturdayJerami GrantSF76ersFree Agent
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) has been listed as doubtful for Saturday's meeting with Denver. He missed a sixth straight game on Friday versus the Clippers, and it looks unlikely Grant will be ready to return to the lineup against the defending champions. Toumani Camara and Kris Murray should continue to benefit from Grant's absence, although they remain risky fantasy options due to their inconsistent play. With Anfernee Simons (knee) already out and Deandre Ayton (elbow) also questionable, Scoot Henderson could get a ridiculous number of shots on Saturday.

Sat Mar 2317:17Al Horford Questionable To Face BullsAl HorfordCHawksFree Agent
Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) is regarded as questionable for Saturday's matchup against Chicago. He's strained his left big toe and might be absent for a second consecutive contest. Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) has already been ruled out for Saturday's game, meaning Boston will be desperate to have Horford available. If he can't go, it should be full steam ahead for Luke Kornet and Xavier Tillman Sr., the backup bigs off the bench, to play a significantly more important role than they usually do. It's going to be a tough challenge, however, with Chicago rolling out Nikola Vucevic and Andre Drummond at the center position.

Sat Mar 2317:11Jrue Holiday Out On SaturdayJrue HolidayPGPelicansFree Agent
Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) won't play against Chicago on Saturday. The veteran sits out a fourth consecutive game. With Holiday missing, Payton Pritchard has strung together a nice run of good performances and should contribute well again on Saturday in a good matchup. The Bulls struggle to guard the three-point line, giving up the second-most three-point makes in the league, putting Pritchard in a great position to do damage from deep, along with the rest of the C's.

Sat Mar 2310:19Jordan Clarkson Sits Out Sixth Consecutive GameJordan ClarksonSGLakersFree Agent
Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (groin) will miss a sixth consecutive game on Saturday against the Rockets. He's nursing a groin strain, and the team has no reason to rush him back after Utah decided to pull the plug on the season. With Clarkson out of commission, Kris Dunn has received a larger role on the team and is looking at a fifth consecutive start on Saturday. Talen Horton-Tucker has had more opportunities as well, while Clarkson's absence boosts the usage of Keyonte George and Collin Sexton on offense. The latter is riding a six-game 20-point streak ahead of Saturday's matchup, and George has also carried a good amount of fantasy value since starting life as a regular starter on Feb. 12.

Sat Mar 2309:36Russell Westbrook Set To Return Next WeekRussell WestbrookPGThunderFree Agent
Los Angeles Clippers point guard Russell Westbrook (hand) is expected to be back in the lineup next week. Sources have told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that Westbrook's return might even come as soon as Monday versus Indiana. The former MVP is recovering from a fractured hand suffered on March 1 in a matchup against Washington. Westbrook has been one of the most productive bench players in the league this season, putting up 11.1 points with 5.1 rebounds and 4.4 assists. There could be fireworks from Westbrook straight away in his first game back, as Indiana games are usually played at a very high pace and tend to be high-scoring affairs.

Fri Mar 2222:00Tobias Harris Suiting Up Friday Versus LakersTobias HarrisSFMagicFree Agent
Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Lakers. After missing three consecutive contests, Philadelphia will be happy to have Harris back, especially since Joel Embiid (knee) is expected to miss more time. Nicolas Batum will likely not start with the 31-year-old suiting up. If Harris's minutes are limited in the contest, Tyrese Maxey and Kelly Oubre Jr. should do most of the heavy lifting on the offensive end.

Fri Mar 2220:56Jerami Grant Won't Play FridayJerami GrantSF76ersFree Agent
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Grant continues to miss time due to a lingering hamstring issue. At this point, the Blazers don't have much incentive to play anyone at less than 100 percent health. In his absence, Toumani Camara will move into the starting five during Friday's game. He doesn't offer much upside on the offensive side of the ball. Camara is more of a deep league streaming option.

Fri Mar 2219:43Rudy Gobert Upgraded To AvailableRudy GobertCJazzFree Agent
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (rib) has been upgraded to available ahead of Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The big man is back in action after going through his pregame routine without any issues. Fellow big man Naz Reid (head) has also been cleared to play in this game. That being said, both players should return to their normal roles in the rotation. Fantasy managers should double check their lineups ahead of tip-off.
