Miami Heat forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. (groin) could only play the first half of the game against the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday after he suffered a groin strain. Afterward, head coach Erik Spoelstra said that Jaquez would not travel with the team for their game against the Brooklyn Nets on Monday and he's considered day-to-day. Jaquez was putting together a good game against Charlotte in the 15 minutes he had on the floor. He posted 15 points, five rebounds, two assists, and one steal while shooting 7-for-11 overall. In the second half, Haywood Highsmith took his place and he'll likely be the one to take over the added opportunities on Monday against the Nets.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has received another questionable tag ahead of the Monday night contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The superstar forward was unable to play in their last game against the Utah Jazz on Saturday and the Lakers suffered a seven-point loss. Out of the last 149 games James was listed as questionable, he's played in 79% of them, so he has a higher chance of taking the floor in an important game against a playoff team. If he's unable to play, D'Angelo Russell took his place in the starting five against the Jazz, so he'd likely move into that spot again. Russell did a good job in his place with 39 points, eight assists, three rebounds, one steal, and two blocks.

Los Angeles Lakers forward Cam Reddish (knee) has been ruled out again for Monday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Despite starting the last two games, Reddish only received eight and 11 minutes in each. Now, he's dealing with some knee soreness which will change up the Lakers starting lineup yet again. The 24-year-old primarily contributes in threes and points for category leagues, but his inconsistent play hasn't made him a fantasy player to trust every night. While he's sidelined, Rui Hachimura and Christian Wood should see some extra minutes, especially if LeBron James (ankle) doesn't end up playing.

Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray (hip) was forced to leave the team's Sunday night contest against the Milwaukee Bucks after playing just 19 minutes. He left the game with four points, one rebound, and one block while shooting 2-for-9 from the floor. The good news is this wasn't the same back issue he experienced earlier in the season. He was listed out with right hip irritation which seems like something that will need to be monitored to understand how much time he may miss. Trey Lyles saw the extra minutes in this game once Murray left and if he needs to miss any more time, he would be the first person to see added opportunities.

Charlotte Hornets forward/center P.J. Washington (foot) will return for Sunday's meeting with the Miami Heat. The 25-year-old injured his ankle during the January 5 matchup against the Chicago Bulls, keeping him off the floor for Charlotte's following three contests. He was listed as doubtful, so most assumed he was heading for a fourth consecutive absence. However, Washington is good to go, which is welcome news, considering the Hornets are down Mark Williams (back) and Gordon Hayward (calf). Washington has averaged 12 points this season, more than two points less than a season ago. Still, he has the potential to see an increased workload and scoring opportunities, although he hasn't been a consistent fantasy contributor.
