Detroit Pistons shooting guard Evan Fournier (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Fournier didn't play in Saturday's contest against the New Jersey Nets due to a sore right knee. The 31-year-old French sharpshooter has averaged 4.6 points in 19.0 minutes per game over his last 10 outings. His return won't boost the team's rotation, as Detroit has lost 12 of 13 games.


Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (ankle) is listed as out for Tuesday's contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves. With nothing to play for at this point, the 15-64 Wizards will keep Kuzma out of action for their third straight game due to his sprained right ankle. His next chance to play comes on Friday when Washington hosts the visiting Chicago Bulls. 2021 first-rounder Corey Kispert is shaping up as a "silly season" hero, providing 18.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.9 steals, and 3.1 three-pointers per game through his last nine contests. Kispert should continue handling heavy minutes from the first unit, but it's a dismal matchup in a game with significant blowout risk against a T-Wolves team that's giving up the fewest DraftKings points to opposing shooting guards.


Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray (calf) is listed as available to play in Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Left calf soreness will not keep Murray out on Tuesday, and the 23-year-old spot-up shooter is in a decent position against a Thunder team that ranks 23rd in three-pointers allowed per game (13.5). Murray's value is more pronounced in nine-category fantasy leagues that are still active, but he's still recording 16.7 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 2.9 three-pointers, and 1.7 combined steals plus blocks per game across his latest 13 appearances. Expect him to handle his usual allotment of minutes in Sacramento's starting lineup against OKC.


Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (foot) did not warm up with the team during morning shootaround ahead of Tuesday's showdown with the Phoenix Suns. It places some doubt on Harden's status for the first leg of LA's back-to-back set with the Suns after he was dealing with a sore right foot leading into Sunday's narrow home win over the visiting Cleveland Cavaliers. If the 34-year-old All-Star ends up missing Tuesday's game, the Clippers' offense would center around Paul George with Kawhi Leonard (knee) already ruled out. Although Phoenix is allowing the sixth-fewest DraftKings points to opposing small forwards, PG-13 would be tough to fade in DFS while averaging 25.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.5 steals, and 3.6 three-pointers over his last 14 appearances.


Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) was spotted at shootaround ahead of Tuesday's matchup with the Sacramento Kings. Sidelined for four consecutive games with a sprained left ankle, Williams is on the right track to return against the Kings on Tuesday. It's worth mentioning Williams was seen at the morning session prior to last Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers before getting ruled out, so sometimes shootaround statuses should be taken with a grain of salt. The 22-year-old two-way rising star is averaging 22.0 points, 5.3 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 1.1 three-pointers, and 2.6 combined steals plus blocks through his last seven games and would be an interesting DFS bet on Tuesday's huge 14-game slate if he is active against Sacramento, who are yielding the ninth-most points (22.0) to opposing small forwards in 2023-24.
