Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirerreports that the Philadelphia 76ers' guard/forward, Paul George(groin), won't play against the Atlanta Hawks on Monday or the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday. George has been dealing with injury issues all season long and will miss the next two 76ers games due to groin soreness. Fantasy managers should monitor his status throughout the week, as the 34-year-old could return Friday versus the Pacers.


Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Grant will head to the sideline due to a knee issue after returning to the court on Friday after missing the previous four games. Well, the Blazers got two games out of Grant before got injured again. Luckily, Deni Avdija (quad) has been cleared to play, so he figures to absorb more playing time. Both Avdija and Jabari Walker figure to be decent streaming options for Monday's slate. Avdija is the better streaming option between the two, but both players are worth a look.


Portland Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija (quad) has been cleared and is ready to return ahead of Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Avdija is back in action following a two-game absence due to a quad injury. Before going down, Avdija was playing fairly well, including a 30-point triple-double against the Cleveland Cavaliers. His return will likely mean less playing time for Shaedon Sharpe and Kris Murray. Fantasy managers who have Avdija rostered can get him active in their lineups.

Washington Wizards guard Bilal Coulibaly (hamstring) has been ruled out for the rest of Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Coulibaly fell on a dunk attempt and landed awkwardly which resulted in him exiting the game due to hamstring tightness. He only played eight minutes, finishing with four points, two rebounds, and one assist on Monday. Justin Champagnie and Corey Kispert figure to see more playing time if Coulibaly is forced to miss more time. Neither player is an ideal streaming option, but Kispert is the more consistent choice between the two if Coulibaly misses more time


Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (hip) was forced to exit early during Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Williams appeared to have suffered some kind of hip injury during the second quarter of Monday's contest. He'll finish his night with 12 points and six assists across 13 minutes of action. The expectation is that Aaron Wiggins and Cason Wallace should see increased playing time the rest of the way. Both players will likely see more minutes going forward if Williams is forced to miss any time after Monday's contest.
