Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kyle Anderson (shoulder) will play on Tuesday against the Clippers. He had been dealing with shoulder pain and wasn't in the lineup on Sunday versus the Lakers. But one game was good enough to feel better, so Anderson will be back in the lineup on Tuesday. The 30-year-old has averaged just 6.2 points and 3.5 rebounds this season, both down from the 2022-23 campaign. However, with Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) out, Anderson should see a noticeable increase in fantasy production. That said, he still can't be trusted to be a routine contributor.
Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) is cleared to resume on-court activities. While he won't play on Wednesday night in Dallas, he is expected to practice with the team on Friday in Los Angeles. If all goes well, there's a chance the 35-year-old will be back in the lineup on Saturday versus the Lakers. Despite his age, Curry has remained a top fantasy option. He's averaged 26.9 points and shot 40.7% from deep in 59 games this season. The Warriors need him back soon, considering the team is fighting to remain in the play-in race. But until Curry returns, Chris Paul Should get most of the minutes at the one spot. Paul has averaged 13.0 points, 7.6 assists, and 1.5 steals in 13 starts during the 2023-24 campaign, giving him value for fantasy managers in all formats.
Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr doesn't expect guard Stephen Curry (ankle) to play in Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Curry's sprained right ankle that he sustained in last Thursday's loss to the Chicago Bulls is set to be re-evaluated on Tuesday, but fantasy managers should consider him doubtful at best against Dallas. Assuming he's soon officially ruled out for Wednesday, the 35-year-old two-time MVP's next chance to return comes during Saturday's showdown with the Los Angeles Lakers. Chris Paul has orchestrated Golden State's offense and enjoyed heightened fantasy value in Curry's stead, starting the past two contests and averaging 14.8 points, 7.3 assists, 5.3 rebounds, 2.0 steals, and 2.2 three-pointers over four appearances without Curry this year.
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (back) has been cleared to play ahead of Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He was listed as probable for this game, so it's not shocking to see him being cleared to play. The expectation is that Green will continue playing a large role as a starter. Green has been playing well lately, so fantasy managers better make sure to get him in their lineups for Monday.
Golden State Warriors guard Moses Moody (knee) has been cleared to play ahead of Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Moody will make his way back to the court after being listed as probable on the injury report. Despite being active, Moody isn't worth streaming in most fantasy formats. Gary Payton II (illness) should be active, which takes away most of the potential from Moody.
