Toronto Raptors guard/forward Bruce Brown (knee) will hop back into the lineup on Friday versus Miami. He's recovered from a right knee problem that kept Brown sidelined for Wednesday's contest against Brooklyn. Brown has averaged 9.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 2.8 assists with the Raptors since being acquired in January from Indiana. He can make an impact all over the court but doesn't really stand out in any area, which limits Brown's fantasy appeal.


Toronto Raptors guard/forward Bruce Brown (knee) is considered questionable for Friday's game against Miami. He's seen action just twice in the past five games and could be out again due to inflammation in his right knee. Javon Freeman-Liberty, Gradey Dick, and Ochai Agbaji could potentially benefit from Brown's absence on Friday. However, it's an ugly fantasy matchup for the Raptors, as Miami boasts the fifth-best defensive rating in the league and is ranked 29th in pace.


Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (quadriceps) has been listed as questionable for Friday's matchup against Minnesota. A right quadriceps contusion kept Murray out from Wednesday's meeting with Charlotte, and he could now miss a second consecutive game. Murray had sat out just three games all season before landing on the shelf on Wednesday. Atlanta's lineup and rotation against the Hornets -- nine of 10 players used logged at least 20 minutes -- suggested that the team is okay with the thought of finishing 10th in the Eastern Conference, so there's no reason for the Hawks to rush Murray back. Garrison Mathews and Vit Krejci, who combined for 29 points on Wednesday, get more opportunities to play without Murray.


Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Wednesday's clash with the Hornets. He's sitting out the second leg of a back-to-back after being listed as questionable on the initial injury report. Murray's exit from the lineup coincides with Trae Young's (finger) return, although the Hawks star will be playing with a minutes restriction and likely won't be able to reach his usual numbers. Kobe Bufkin, Vit Krejci, and Garrison Mathews could get a boost in playing time, but none of the three stand out as good fantasy options.


Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (quad) is questionable for Wednesday's tilt against the Charlotte Hornets. Dealing with a right quadriceps contusion after logging 48 minutes in Tuesday's defeat to the visiting Miami Heat, Murray might have to miss his first game since Feb. 9 on the second part of Atlanta's back-to-back. The sharpshooting Garrison Mathews would be primed for an uptick in minutes in the Hawks' backcourt if Murray sits out, and Trae Young (finger) could be needed to handle the bulk of the ball-handling duties if he's available on Wednesday. Young has averaged 29.0 points, 11.3 assists, 1.7 rebounds, 1.3 steals, and 2.6 three-pointers covering three outings sans Murray this year and would warrant plenty of DFS attention in a tasty matchup with the 19-60 Hornets, despite coming off an extended absence.
