According to Jovan Buha of The Athletic, Los Angeles Lakers forwardAustin Reaves(ankle) has been cleared to play against the Detroit Pistons on Monday. The 26-year-old has yet to miss a game this season. He's a starter in any fantasy format, averaging 17.3 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.3 steals, and 2.2 threes per game to start the year. Anthony Davis (hip) and D'Angelo Russell (foot)are also available after being listed as probable earlier on Monday.

Jovan Buha from The Athletic has reported that Davis (hip) will be available for Monday's matchup with the Pistons. As anticipated, he has been upgraded from probable to available status and will carry on playing despite experiencing right hip soreness. This issue hasn't affected his performance, as he's currently averaging 31.8 points, 12.2 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 2.2 blocks, and 1.8 steals over 36.0 minutes per game.

According to Jovan Buha of The Athletic, Los Angeles Lakers guardD'Angelo Russell(foot) has been cleared to play for Monday's matchup with the Detroit Pistons. The veteran guard was listed as probable with a right foot contusion earlier in the day, but it appears the injury won't keep him off the court for Monday's contest. He will continue in the starting five alongside Austin Reaves(ankle) andAnthony Davis(hip), who are also available after being listed as probable.

Sacramento Kings star guard De'Aaron Fox (hand) is dealing with a ligament issue in his left pinky on his shooting hand, but he intends to play through it. The speedy guard dislocated the finger during training camp, though X-rays were negative. The injury hasn't impacted his scoring efficiency, as he's shooting a solid 47.7 percent from the field across six games this season. So far, he's averaging 23.5 points, 5.7 assists, and 2.5 steals per game and continues to make a strong impact on both ends of the floor.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade (illness) won't play on Monday versus Milwaukee. Wade has been starting in place of the injured Max Strus (ankle). However, he's averaged only 6.9 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 1.3 steals this season. With Caris LeVert (knee) also out, Isaac Okoro will move into the starting lineup and be worth adding to fantasy lineups. The same can be said for Sam Merrill, who had 17 points in 22 minutes off the bench on Saturday against the Bucks, the first of back-to-back contests between the clubs.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Caris LeVert (knee) won't play on Monday against the Bucks. The veteran has been battling knee soreness, so he'll miss his second consecutive contest. With Dean Wade (illness) also out versus Milwaukee, Isaac Okoro will get the start, giving him streaming potential for fantasy managers. Sam Merrill, coming off a 17-point showing on Saturday, should be lumped in the same category as Okoro.

Brooklyn Nets utility man Ben Simmons won't suit up on Monday night against the Memphis Grizzlies. Simmons won't play in back-to-back contests for the foreseeable future, so his absence is maintenance related. But with Noah Clowney (hip) also out, Nicolas Claxton may work his way back into the starting lineup. If not, Brooklyn may go small and have Dorian Finney-Smith handle things in the middle. There's also streaming potential for Ziaire Williams and Jalen Wilson to see an uptick in fantasy production with Simmons off the floor.

Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (illness) won't play on Monday night in Miami. He hasn't felt well, keeping him off the court for Saturday's overtime loss to the Raptors. Doug McDermott got the start in that one. However, he finished with only four points in 15 minutes. With that in mind, McDermott should be left out of fantasy lineups. Instead, Keon Ellis, who had eight points, two steals, and two blocks versus Toronto, is worth streaming. Ellis will also be an enticing DFS value option.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) will return for Monday's game against the Wizards. The sharpshooter has missed the last three games because of a sprained right ankle. But he had been progressing even more over the last few days, so fantasy managers had a feeling he was on his way back. While there is a chance Curry will see fewer minutes than usual in his first game back, he remains a must-start. Brandin Podziemski, who will likely head back to the bench, is still worth adding to any fantasy lineup.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (adductor) won't play on Monday night against the Cavaliers. The multi-time All-Star has been listed on the injury report all season for a knee issue. However, an adductor strain will keep him off the floor versus Cleveland. With Khris Middleton (ankles) still out, Damian Lillard should see a surge in scoring opportunities. Bobby Portis, who will likely slide into the starting lineup, Gary Trent Jr., and Brook Lopez could also surpass fantasy expectations with Antetokounmpo sidelined.

Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Miami Heat. After missing Saturday's contest against the Toronto Raptors, the 26-year-old has a chance to return. He has been productive this season, averaging 11.6 points and 2.8 rebounds across 26.0 minutes over five games. If Huerter is unable to play, expect Keon Ellis and Malik Monk to potentially step into larger roles. Fantasy managers should monitor his status leading up to tip-off for any updates.

Chicago Bulls forward Jalen Smith (knee) is probable for Monday's game against the Utah Jazz due to left knee effusion. After missing one game due to the injury, the 24-year-old returned on Friday against the Brooklyn Nets, posting five points, five rebounds, and a block in just 14 minutes. Currently, Smith is delivering solid production with averages of 10.2 points and 5.6 rebounds per game, while playing only 13.8 minutes per contest. As the backup center to Nikola Vucevic, he is expected to continue providing valuable depth in that role.

Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller (glute) is listed as questionable for Monday's matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves. After missing four games, Miller made a strong return on Saturday against the Celtics, contributing 16 points, six assists, four rebounds, two steals, and a block. His 31 minutes of play in that game suggest he is in good health, but his status is certainly worth monitoring since he's listed as questionable. At just 21 years old, fantasy managers are hopeful that he will remain healthy and continue to grow and improve throughout the season.

Houston Rockets center Steven Adams (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the New York Knicks. The team has been cautious with his return following right knee surgery, but he has seen action in two games thus far. In those appearances, the 31-year-old has averaged just 12.0 minutes, contributing 3.0 points and 2.0 rebounds per game. Adams is expected to offer depth behind star center Alperen Sengun when fully integrated into the rotation.

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (knee/calf) is probable for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He is expected to play despite dealing with a couple of minor injuries. With Jamal Murray sidelined due to a concussion and concerns about the team's depth, Gordon's playmaking skills will be vital for the Nuggets. This season, he has been a key contributor, averaging 17.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game.

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 25-year-old was initially questionable but will be sidelined as he manages a left plantar fascia strain sustained in the second quarter of Sunday's loss to Dallas. The big man is also dealing with ongoing right knee tendinitis, adding to his challenges. Fortunately for Orlando, Goga Bitadze (foot) has been cleared to play and should help fill the gap. Carter Jr. has been a solid fantasy contributor this season, averaging 8.3 points, 8.8 rebounds, and 1.3 steals across 26 minutes per game, and managers will be hoping for a quick return.

Orlando Magic center Goga Bitadze (foot) is set to play on Monday against the Oklahoma City Thunder after missing the last five games. With Wendell Carter Jr. sidelined due to a foot injury, Bitadze's return comes at a crucial time for the Magic. Although Bitadze will be available, Moritz Wagner is likely to handle the majority of the minutes at center. The Magic, sitting at a 3-4 record, will need all available bodies as they navigate the absence of star forward Paolo Banchero. Bitadze could be a valuable addition for fantasy managers looking for frontcourt depth.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (hamstring) is officially questionable for Monday's matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers. The talented forward missed Sunday's game, and his status for Monday remains uncertain. If he sits out again, players like Jeremiah Robinson-Earl and Jamal Cain could see increased minutes. Fantasy managers are hoping for consistent health from Williamson this season, as he's been a strong contributor when on the court, averaging 21.4 points and 8.0 rebounds per game.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Pat Connaughton (left adductor strain) is expected to be available for Monday's matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 31-year-old went scoreless in Saturday's loss to Cleveland, and while the strain may impact his performance, he's anticipated to push through it. Through six games this season, Connaughton has provided 3.8 points and 3.2 rebounds per game off the Bucks' bench.

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Josh Giddey (illness) popped up on the team's injury report early Monday afternoon with a non-COVID illness. At the moment, he's listed as probable, so they're expecting him to still suit up. His status should be monitored though in case he doesn't feel well when it gets closer to tip-off. If Giddey has to watch from the sidelines, Coby White will likely get some more on-ball duties while Ayo Dosunmu could move into the starting five.
