Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (wrist) has been cleared to participate in on-court work. Paul underwent hand surgery in early January when it was announced that he would be re-evaluated in three weeks. The organization announced on Tuesday that Paul is going to be sidelined at least two more weeks. Fantasy managers who have Paul rostered will need to remain patient. The absence of Paul has opened up additional playing time for Brandin Podziemski and Cory Joseph. Podziemski has some low-end or deep league appeal with Paul sidelined.

Toronto Raptors forward Jontay Porter (back) won't return to Tuesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Porter exited the game after five minutes due to back spasms. He won't return to this contest and will finish his night with two points, one assist, and a steal. Chris Boucher and Jordan Nwora are likely to see increased roles with Porter unable to return. Boucher is the better option between the two, but he's won't see a huge bump from the loss of Porter.


Detroit Pistons center Isaiah Stewart (ankle) is listed as out for Wednesday's contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Stewart sprained his left ankle in Sunday's upset win over the Oklahoma City Thunder, and the injury will sideline him for at least one game. Beef Stew looks to return on Friday versus the Los Angeles Clippers, while Alec Burks and Ausar Thompson are candidates for extended run against the Cavs on Wednesday.


Miami Heat forward Duncan Robinson (concussion) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game versus the Sacramento Kings. The reeling Heat placed Robinson in the concussion protocol on Tuesday after he exited Monday's loss to the Phoenix Suns following four minutes of play. The 29-year-old marksman's next opportunity to return arrives on Friday against the Washington Wizards. More playing time will be available for Jaime Jaquez Jr., Caleb Martin, and Josh Richardson against the Kings on Wednesday.



Toronto Raptors center Jakob Poeltl (ankle) and guard Immanuel Quickley (quad) are both out for Tuesday's contest against the Chicago Bulls. Poeltl will remain sidelined for an 11th consecutive game with a sprained left ankle, while Quickley is missing a third straight matchup due to a right quadriceps contusion. Friday's outing against the Houston Rockets marks both of their next shots to return. With RJ Barrett (knee) also out on Tuesday, Bruce Brown and Dennis Schroder should stay in Toronto's starting five. Thaddeus Young and Jontay Porter should split minutes at center.
