Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (illness) is probable ahead of Tuesday's game in Indiana. The 25-year-old carried a questionable designation for the same reason before Sunday's meeting with the Washington Wizards. However, he was out there, finishing with 19 points, five rebounds, two blocks, and two steals in 32 minutes. Of course, that doesn't necessarily mean he'll be healthy for Tuesday's contest, although it would be surprising if he didn't suit up. At any rate, if Porter can't go, Peyton Watson, averaging 17 points in two starts this year, would likely fill his spot in the lineup. But with Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, and Aaron Gordon (shoulder) on the floor, it will be tough for Watson to do anything meaningful for fantasy managers.

New York Knicks forward/center Isaiah Hartenstein (foot) is questionable for Tuesday's showdown with the Brooklyn Nets. The 25-year-old hasn't missed a game as a Knick. However, he injured his foot during Saturday's clash with the Toronto Raptors, keeping him out of practice on Monday. After Mitchell Robinson went down for the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign because of an ankle injury, Hartenstein became a popular roster addition for fantasy managers, especially for category participants, due to his rebounding prowess. But if he can't suit up versus the Nets, Precious Achiuwa and Jericho Sims would spend more time in the middle. Unfortunately, both men are hard to trust from a fantasy perspective.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This looks like a rest game for the veteran forward who has been playing through an ankle issue. Taurean Prince has been removed from the injury report and figures to move into the starting five. Both Prince and Rui Hachimura are likely to see a boost in value with James sidelined on Tuesday.

Phoenix Suns guard Eric Gordon (wrist) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran guard will sit this game out after playing 30 minutes during Sunday's contest. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried as this is likely more of a rest game than anything else. The Suns will likely use a committee approach to help fill the void. Josh Okogie. Nassir Little, and Jordan Goodwin should all benefit. None of them are reliable streaming options even with more minutes.

Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (knee) is available ahead of Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Allen will be available for this game after suffering a left knee injury during Sunday's contest. The expectation is that Allen will resume his role in the starting five. He has been a solid option for the Suns this season. He'll likely have an increased role as well with Eric Gordon (wrist) ruled out on Monday.
