Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole (elbow) will make his return to the court ahead of Saturday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Poole will be back in action on Saturday after missing each of the last three games due to an elbow injury. It doesn't sound like Poole is going to be limited and he'll slide back into the starting five for this game. Before going down, Poole was on a hot streak with two games in a row of 24 points or more. Fantasy managers who have Poole rostered can get him active in their lineups ahead of tip-off.

Toronto Raptors forward/center Chris Boucher (mouth) is active ahead of Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards. Boucher is back in action after missing each of the last four games due to tooth procedure. The 32-year-old figures to play his normal role in the rotation, which hasn't been significant this season. Boucher is averaging 10.0 points and 4.5 rebounds across 17 minutes per game. Boucher hasn't been much of a fantasy option this season while playing minutes in the teens.

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Bennedict Mathurin (wrist) is set to return to the court for Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Mathurin is back in action after missing each of the last four games due to a wrist injury. Head coach Rick Carlisle said he wasn't sure if Mathurin would be limited during his first game back. The Pacers could certainly use the help with Tyrese Haliburton (hip) heading to the sideline for the second straight game. Fantasy managers in season-long formats can get Mathurin active, but he's a risky DFS choice.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James left Saturday night's game against the Boston Celtics early with a left groin strain. James exited nearly halfway through the fourth quarter after posting up 22 points, 14 rebounds and nine assists in the 111-101 loss. As of now the team has yet to give an update on James' condition, but he should be considered day-to-day until further notice. If James is forced to miss time then expect more usage out of Luka Doncic in the starting lineup. Dorian Finney-Smith and Gabe Vincent have the potential to slide into the starting lineup as well if James cannot suit up for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets.

Houston Rockets guard/forward Amen Thompson (ankle) exited Saturday's win over the New Orleans Pelicans. He narrowly missed a triple-double, amassing 15 points, 11 assists, and nine rebounds. Unfortunately, the 2023 No. 4 overall pick suffered an ankle injury late in the contest. Thompson, averaging 14.0 points, 8.3 boards, 2.6 assists, and 1.3 steals this season, has stepped up in the absence of Fred VanVleet (ankle). However, with Thompson observed leaving the arena with crutches and a walking boot, he'll likely miss time. He will undergo an MRI on Sunday. But while Thompson and VanVleet are off the floor, Jalen Green should see a bump in usage while serving as the primary option at the one. Aaron Holiday, who had 20 points on Saturday night, may also see more work, potentially even entering the starting lineup.
