Boston Celtics shooting guard Jaden Springer (knee) is on the injury report as questionable ahead of Tuesday's tilt against Atlanta. He's dealing with left knee pain. Springer's absence would not be a big issue for the Celtics, as the 22-year-old has barely played this season. He's seen action only four times, logging a maximum of eight minutes. Payton Pritchard is the first guard off the bench for Boston and will look to continue his productive start to the season in a good matchup against a struggling defense. He notched 18 points with four assists and three triples in this season's first head-to-head clash with the Hawks.

Charlotte Hornets guard Tre Mann (back) is considered questionable for Tuesday's battle with Orlando. He shook off a questionable tag to play on Sunday versus Philadelphia but apparently still isn't fully healthy. Mann has so far featured in all 10 games, averaging 14.8 points and 3.3 assists in 25.1 minutes. However, the 23-year-old has been inconsistent with his performances lately, and sitting out some action might even be beneficial for him. Vasilije Micic will likely re-enter the rotation on Tuesday if Mann is out, but he lacks fantasy appeal.

Toronto Raptors shooting guard Garrett Temple (back) has been labeled as doubtful for Tuesday's matchup against Milwaukee. The veteran is bothered by lower back spasms. Temple has made only two appearances this season, logging nine minutes in total, so he wouldn't be a big miss if he's not available. Chris Boucher will continue to lead the second unit on Tuesday. The Bucks sit right in the middle of the pack in terms of bench points allowed, making this a decent matchup for Toronto's second unit.

Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (elbow) might return to the shelf on Tuesday versus Milwaukee. He was back from an eight-game absence at the weekend, playing in both games of a back-to-back against the L.A. teams, but Quickley finds himself on the injury report again with a questionable tag. The talented guard has featured in only three games this season. His injury problems have allowed Davion Mitchell to enjoy a good run on the team. He has been Quickley's replacement in the starting unit, averaging 10.3 points and 6.8 assists in the role. A meeting with the struggling Bucks offers a good opportunity to make noise for the Raptors points guards, as Milwaukee allows the eighth-most fantasy points in the league to the position.

Utah Jazz guard Keyonte George (foot) is considered questionable for Tuesday's game against Phoenix. He missed his first game of the season over the weekend and might still remain on the shelf despite participating in Monday's practice. Isaiah Collier logged the start instead of George against San Antonio on Saturday. He finished with seven points, six rebounds, four assists, one steal, and one block. George's absence also boosts the usage of Collin Sexton and Jordan Clarkson. The former has been more productive of the two. Point guards haven't had much joy against the Suns this season, meaning this will likely be a rough outing for whoever ends up running Utah's offense.

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins (back) has been listed as questionable for Tuesday's clash with the Mavericks. A lower back problem could keep Wiggins sidelined for the third time this season. He missed a pair of games last month with the same issue. If Wiggins is out on Tuesday, we should see more of Buddy Hield, Brandin Podziemski, and Moses Moody. There might also be extra action available for Jonathan Kuminga, who has recently impressed with back-to-back 20-point games. Meanwhile, Hield has gone cold lately, while both Moody and Podziemski have been inconsistent.

Oklahoma City Thunder's G Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 45 points on 13-of-21 shooting in a 134-128 win over the Clippers on Monday, Nov. 11.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Gary Trent Jr. (hip) is listed as probable for Tuesday night's game against the Toronto Raptors. Trent is dealing with lower back spasms that have caused him to miss the last two games. The probable tag is a positive sign for the Bucks who will be in desperate need of more offensive production Tuesday with Damian Lillard (concussion) being listed as out. Trent started seven games for the Bucks to start the season but only averaged 8.0 PPG and shot just 23.1% from three, an area that's generally a strength for him as a 38.3% career three point shooter. It's unclear if the Bucks will put Trent back into the starting lineup but there's potential for him to have a decent fantasy impact with Milwaukee's need to replace Lillard's three point shooting. Fantasy managers should check in on the Bucks' starting lineup before putting Trent into theirs.

New York Knicks guard Miles McBride (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday night's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. McBride has yet to miss a game this season and has made a solid impact coming off the Knicks' bench. The 24-year-old is averaging 11.2 PPG while shooting 39.6% from three. With fellow guard Cameron Payne also listed as questionable for tomorrow, expect Tyler Kolek to get more minutes off the bench if McBride is unable to go. Kolek is shooting well when in but on limited minutes. He would be a very volatile option for all fantasy formats and shouldn't be put in any lineups unless fantasy managers in deep leagues are desperate.

New York Knicks point guard Cameron Payne (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Tuesday night's matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers. Payne is dealing with a hamstring strain that has caused him to miss the last four games. With fellow guard Miles McBride also listed as questionable there may be more pressure for Payne to make his return. The 30-year-old has only averaged 5.6 PPG on a 36.4% field goal percentage, making him a very risky start for fantasy managers if he is able to go. Should neither Payne or McBride be able to suit up, expect rookie Tyler Kolek to get more bench minutes. Kolek should be considered a very volatile fantasy option given his limited minutes this season, though he has been efficient when taking shots (69.2% field goal percentage).

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday night's game against the Utah Jazz. Nurkic is dealing with left ankle soreness. The 30-year-old injured his ankle in Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings and was ruled out after the first half. Nurkic is averaging 9.9 PPG and 10.2 RPG. If he is unable to suit up his presence on the boards will certainly be felt by a Phoenix team who's already missing Kevin Durant. Mason Plumlee will be in line to get the start if Nurkic's ankle does not cooperate. Plumlee would make a very solid fill-in option for fantasy managers and could be a sneaky DFS play as well.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is listed as probable for Tuesday night's matchup against the Toronto Raptors. Antetokounmpo has been dealing with a knee issue but it hasn't caused him to miss any of the last three games. With Damian Lillard in concussion protocol and listed as out for Tuesday, expect Antetokounmpo to shoulder more of the offensive load on Tuesday. Fantasy managers will already have him in their starting lineups but DFS managers may want to ensure The Greek Freak is in their lineups as well and should expect a bump in assists from the 29-year-old.

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Damian Lillard is in concussion protocol and has been ruled out for Tuesday night's game against the Toronto Raptors. Lillard has yet to miss a game this season and his presence will be missed in Milwaukee's first in-season tournament game. The 34-year-old is averaging 26.0 PPG and 6.6 APG for the struggling Bucks. With Lillard out, expect Ryan Rollins or Delon Wright to get more minutes. Wright had been getting bench minutes to start the season but had gotten demoted over the last three games where Rollins has taken over. Rollins has yet to start a game in his three-year NBA career. With volatility at the point guard role, fantasy managers and DFS players should instead expect Giannis Antetokounmpo to produce more, especially from an assists perspective.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee) isn't expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Warriors. The former Hornet is battling a knee sprain. Unfortunately, it appears he'll miss his fourth-consecutive game on Tuesday night. If that's the case, Naji Marshall, averaging 12.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.0 steals in three starts this season, remains a viable fantasy option in any format.

Detroit Pistons center Isaiah Stewart (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's game versus the Miami Heat. With Jalen Duren (ankle) sidelined for the last few games, Stewart has been handling business underneath the basket. However, he's struggled this season, averaging 5.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks. But if Duren remains out, Stewart's ceiling should remain higher than usual. Yet, if Stewart and Duren don't suit up, Paul Reed would presumably slide into the starting lineup and gain streaming value, although will likely be just for a game or two.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) is questionable heading into Tuesday's meeting with the Miami Heat. The 20-year-old sprained his ankle during the November 6 matchup with the Charlotte Hornets and has missed the last two games as a result. Fortunately, the questionable tag gives him a chance to play. If anything, it at least suggests he's moving in the right direction. If Duren can't suit up, Isaiah Stewart (ankle), who is probable, should continue to fill the void underneath the basket, giving him plenty of upside for fantasy managers. But if Stewart is sidelined as well, Paul Reed would see a surge in fantasy potential, even if it's only for one contest.

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) won't play in Tuesday's game against the Pistons. This will mark his second-consecutive absence because of a sprained ankle. But Miami doesn't play again until Friday in Indiana, so, hopefully, the extra days off will allow him to get back on the floor. Without Butler in the equation, Haywood Highsmith, who had seven points as a starter on Sunday against Minnesota, should continue to fill some of the void in the rotation. However, Jaime Jaquez Jr., who recently returned from a lengthy absence, may find himself with the first five and would be considered a much safer fantasy option than Highsmith.

Sacramento Kings guard Malik Monk (ankle) will be re-evaluated in two weeks after suffering a "moderate" right ankle sprain in Sunday's win over the Phoenix Suns. The 2017 No. 11 overall pick has provided valuable minutes off the bench for the Kings, averaging 12.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 2.8 assists. But now that he'll be sidelined for at least a few weeks, Keon Ellis and Doug McDermott could see more action moving ahead. However, Ellis and McDermott have a long way to go before earning a consistent place in fantasy lineups.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee, suspension) isn't listed on the injury report, meaning he will play on Tuesday against the New York Knicks. The 30-year-old wasn't ready to suit up to begin the 2024-25 campaign. However, while ready was ready to go, he missed the last three games after he was suspended for a locker room altercation with a reporter. Of course, there's a good chance Embiid will see fewer minutes than usual in his first game of the year, so Andre Drummond may have fantasy value for at least a few more games. Yet, the same can't be said for Guerschon Yabusele, who could have a tough time getting on the floor with Embiid and Drummond in the mix.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (ankle) is currently listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Tatum appears to have suffered a minor ankle issue during Sunday's win over the Milwaukee Bucks. The Celtics will likely wait until closer to tip-off on Tuesday before making a final decision on Tatum's status. If he sits, Jaylen Brown would be asked to take on a heavy workload in the scoring department. Also, Sam Hauser would likely be asked to start in place of Tatum. Hauser is a decent rotational player, but isn't worth a look in fantasy formats.
