Oklahoma City Thunder guardIsaiah Joe(back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Houston Rockets due to a back injury. Monday's contest will be the second straight game Joe has been out of action. The 25-year-old has been averaging 9.4 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 20.6 minutes across 54 games this season. With Joe out,Cason WallaceandAaron Wiggins will see expanded roles and could be solid fantasy contributors this evening.

Miami Heat guard/forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. (ankle) will miss a second consecutive game on Monday versus the Washington Wizards. It was always unlikely that Jaquez Jr. would be ready to return after the team listed him as doubtful on the initial injury report. The Heat also remain without Andrew Wiggins (ankle), allowing Duncan Robinson to have a greater role. He has averaged 18.0 points and 5.3 assists with 48 percent three-point shooting over the last three games. The injury situation also boosts the fantasy value of Haywood Highsmith, who has returned to the rotation in the past few games.

Miami Heat guard Davion Mitchell (quadriceps) will not be in the lineup on Monday against the Washington Wizards. He hurt his left quadriceps in Sunday's matchup against the New York Knicks. Mitchell was a late addition to the injury report before the team ruled him out for Monday's action. Alec Burks and Terry Rozier may benefit from Mitchell's absence on Monday, though they have not provided consistent fantasy value and should be seen as risky options.

Miami Heat forward/center Kel'el Ware (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's contest against the Washington Wizards. He sustained a right knee sprain in Sunday's overtime loss to the New York Knicks. Kevin Love, Haywood Highsmith, and Kyle Anderson should share Ware's minutes on Monday, with Bam Adebayo likely shifting back to center. Ware's first opportunity to return will come on Wednesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers, though it wouldn't be surprising if he misses multiple games due to his knee injury.

Utah Jazz guardJordan Clarkson(foot) won't play against the Detroit Pistons due to plantar fasciitis management. Monday's contest will be the third straight game Clarkson will be out of action. Clarkson's next opportunity to suit up will be Wednesday against the Wizards, but it is unclear if he will be available. While the 32-year-old is on the shelf, Isaiah CollierandKeyonte Georgewill continue to log plenty of extra minutes. George should be on the fantasy managers' radar, as the guard has finished with at least 20 points and more than five assists in the last three games.
