Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Brandon Miller (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Miller took a fall during Saturday's contest and briefly exited the game. He returned to the court shortly afterwards but might have re-aggravated his left shoulder injury during that contest. Regardless, Miller has been scratched from this game but will hopefully be available for their next game. In the meantime, Collin Sexton should see increased run without Miller on the court. Sexton has had some quality performances lately, posting 15 points or more in each of his last five games. Fantasy managers should consider Sexton a viable streaming option for Monday's slate. He played 33 minutes during Saturday's contest and should see a familiar workload in this one.

Detroit Pistons guard Duncan Robinson (ankle) won't play on Monday against Atlanta. The 31-year-old hasn't missed a game this season. Unfortunately, that will come to an end on Monday night after he tweaked his ankle during the win over the Miami Heat on Saturday. Robinson's next chance to play will be on Wednesday in Milwaukee. Daniss Jenkins, averaging 19.3 points, 8.8 assists, and 1.5 steals in four starts, will presumably take his place in the rotation, although he may have a tough time being as productive with Caris LeVert (knee) and Cade Cunningham in the equation.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (leg) will play on Monday versus the Hawks after sitting out Saturday's 138-135 win over the Miami Heat. The 22-year-old has looked terrific this season despite missing three games, averaging a career-high 19.5 points and 11.8 rebounds with 1.1 blocks. He'll make his return against a Hawks team that won't have Kristaps Porzingis (illness), which could certainly increase his fantasy ceiling. Duren's presence should mean Isaiah Stewart, who had nine points and eight boards on Saturday, will head back to the bench.

Milwaukee Bucks forward/centerGiannis Antetokounmpo(adductor) is good to go for Monday's matchup with the Washington Wizards. The former MVP is managing a left adductor injury but will remain in the lineup for tonight's tilt. He finished with 29 points on Saturday against Brooklyn and missed a double-double by just two rebounds despite playing just 19 minutes. In his first meeting with the Wizards this campaign, Antetokounmpo went for a 37-point, 14-rebound double-double in just 27 minutes and he should be fresh for this evening after limited action in his last outing.

Brooklyn Nets forward Michael Porter Jr. (back) will play on Monday night versus the Charlotte Hornets after missing the previous two contests due to lower back tightness. The former Nugget is having easily the best year of his career, averaging 24.3 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 3.0 assists. His shooting percentage from deep is at an all-time low. However, Porter has made up for it with his contributions in all statistical areas. With that in mind, Porter is a must-start in any fantasy setup, especially against one of the worst defensive clubs in the National Basketball Association. Ziaire Williams, who started in the last two games, may head back to the bench, although that may not happen, considering Terance Mann (rib) won't suit up.

Cleveland Cavaliers guardSam Merrill(hand) will be out of action on Monday against the Indiana Pacers. Merrill will miss his seventh consecutive contest due to a sprained right hand, and there isn't a timetable for his return. Cleveland's backcourt will be very short-handed this evening, with Lonzo Ball (illness) and Darius Garland (rest) also sidelined. Jaylon Tyson should be considered a solid streaming option, as he will get more scoring opportunities with more time on the floor.

Cleveland Cavaliers guardLonzo Ball(illness) won't play on Monday against the Indiana Pacers due to an illness. Ball also sat out Sunday's matchup with the Celtics. Darius Garland (rest) andSam Merrill(hand) are sidelined as well, meaningCraig Porter Jr. could absorb extra minutes off the bench. Fantasy managers could also look to Jaylon Tyson for reliable offensive production as he will have an expanded role this evening.

Houston Rockets centerSteven Adams(rest) will miss Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. Adams will have tonight's tilt off to rest after finishing with 13 points, 12 rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one block across 17 minutes during a 129-101 win over the Jazz on Sunday. Clint Capela will likely be assigned extra minutes with Adams out this evening. However, Capela shouldn't be viewed as a solid fantasy basketball option, as he is averaging just 3.6 points and 4.6 rebounds per contest this season.

Cleveland Cavaliers guardDarius Garland (rest) is unavailable for Monday's clash against the Indiana Pacers. Garland will have the second half of back-to-back games off to rest. The 25-year-old finished with 21 points, three rebounds and eight assists across 31 minutes during Sunday's 117-115 loss to the Celtics. With Lonzo Ball (illness) also out of action, Cleveland's backcourt will have to turn to Tyrese Proctor and Craig Porter to take on extra minutes during tonight's tilt.

Atlanta Hawks centerKristaps Porzingis(illness) won't play on Monday night versus the Detroit Pistons. Porzingis will be held out of action for the third consecutive contest due to illness. Despite playing in only 12 games this season, the 30-year-old is still considered an everyday fantasy option, averaging 18.7 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 1.6 blocks in 26.3 minutes. It's unknown if he'll be ready to go on Wednesday against the Clippers. In the meantime,Onyeka Okongwu remains a must-start at center in all fantasy formats as he is averaging 16.2 points, 7.4 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.9 blocks and 1.5 steals across 20 outings.

Dallas Mavericks centerDaniel Gafford(ankle) is unavailable for Monday's matchup with the Denver Nuggets. Gafford will be out of action for the second game in a row due to ankle injury management. His next chance to suit up will be Wednesday against the Heat. With Dereck Lively II (foot) also unavailable this evening, Dwight PowellandMoussa Cisse will take most of the available minutes at the five. Fantasy managers will likely get more value out of Powell tonight as he finished with nine points, five rebounds, three assists, six steals, and one block in 34 minutes during Saturday's win over the Clippers.

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (knee) exited Sunday's game against Atlanta after six minutes and did not return, leaving his status for upcoming contests unclear. Drummond has been productive recently with 8.8 points, 14.8 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks across his last five full outings, so any absence would open a path for second-year big Adem Bona. Bona logged 22 minutes with four points, three rebounds, and two blocks on Sunday and profiles as a deeper-league stream for defensive stats if Drummond misses time.

Charlotte Hornets guard Tre Mann (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets after logging only ten minutes in his most recent outing, and his potential absence carries minimal fantasy impact. Mann has averaged 5.4 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 1.0 assist across his last five games on 37.9 percent shooting, keeping him off the radar in most formats. Rookie guard KJ Simpson could enter the rotation if Mann sits, though he still profiles as a deep-league watch-list option.

Los Angeles Lakers center Deandre Ayton (knee) exited Sunday's game and did not return after appearing uncomfortable during a brief stint, putting his availability for upcoming contests in question. Any missed time would bump Jaxson Hayes into a larger role, though he remains more of a fringe option outside deep formats. Hayes has averaged 11.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.0 block across two spot starts while shooting 90.9 percent from the field in 31.1 minutes, making him a reasonable speculative stream if Ayton is sidelined.

Dallas Mavericks guard Brandon Williams (adductor) is questionable for Monday's game in Denver after recently dealing with a back issue, setting up Ryan Nembhard to handle most of the lead-guard minutes if Williams is ruled out. Nembhard has started the last two games and just delivered eight points, three assists, and one rebound in 21 minutes against the Clippers, giving him low-end streaming appeal for assists in deeper formats. Jaden Hardy and D'Angelo Russell could also see backcourt bumps if given minutes.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game in Denver after missing Saturday's win over the Clippers. If he sits again, Naji Marshall is positioned to draw another start. Marshall has averaged 12.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists over his last five games while shooting 48.7 percent from the field, and he logged 18 points, eight rebounds, and three steals in 37 minutes on Saturday. He profiles as a low-end streamer, with Caleb Martin offering deeper-league appeal.

Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford (ankle) is doubtful for Monday's game in Denver, leaving Dallas to patch together minutes at the five with Dereck Lively II (foot) also out. Dwight Powell and Moussa Cisse remain fringe options, though Powell's nine points, five rebounds, three assists, six steals, and one block in 34 minutes Saturday suggest he may hold the steadiest role. Cisse stays in deep-league territory. Anthony Davis is still ramping up and could pick up spot frontcourt minutes, but his managed workload keeps expectations in check.

Portland's F Deni Avdija recorded a triple-double, finishing with 31 points, 10 assists and 19 rebounds in a 115-123 loss to the Thunder on Sunday, Nov. 30.

Hawks' F Jalen Johnson recorded a double-double, scoring 41 points and grabbing 14 rebounds in a 142-134 win over Philadelphia on Sunday, Nov. 30.

Philadelphia 76ers' G Tyrese Maxey scored 44 points on 14-of-31 shooting in a 134-142 loss to the Hawks on Sunday, Nov. 30.
