Denver Nuggets guard/forward Christian Braun (foot) will be unavailable on Monday against the Golden State Warriors. He was expected to play, as the team had given him a probable designation on the initial injury report, but Denver has now ruled him out for the game. This will mark only his second absence of the season. The Nuggets will also be without Jamal Murray (ankle) and Nikola Jokic (elbow, ankle), leaving Michael Porter Jr. and Aaron Gordon (calf), who is expected to return to the lineup, as the only regular starters available. Both are poised to play a significant role on the offensive end alongside Russell Westbrook.

Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura (knee) will miss a 10th consecutive game on Monday against the San Antonio Spurs but is progressing in his recovery from left knee tendinopathy. Before Monday's game, Lakers head coach JJ Redick told reporters that Hachimura has progressed to three-on-three work. The Japanese forward remains day-to-day. Hachimura's next chance to return will be a back-to-back set on Wednesday and Thursday against the Denver Nuggets and Milwaukee Bucks. Considering he has been out for three weeks, the Lakers may ease Hachimura back into action, limiting his fantasy appeal.

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. As the playoffs approach, Tatum has begun sitting out games this month to manage a knee injury and might also miss Tuesday's matchup. With Jaylen Brown (knee) already sidelined, players like Kristaps Porzingis, Derrick White, and Payton Pritchard may be asked to carry the offense. Additionally, Al Horford is expected to enter the starting lineup if Tatum is unavailable.

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is probable for Tuesday's matchup against the Golden State Warriors. Milwaukee continues to list the Greek superstar on the injury report, but Antetokounmpo has not sat out any action since returning from a calf injury on Feb. 20. He is currently on the report with right patella tendinopathy. Antetokounmpo finished off last week with his 52nd career triple-double against the Oklahoma City Thunder and will aim for a fifth straight double-double in Tuesday's contest.

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (knee) will not suit up for Tuesday's action against the Brooklyn Nets. Brown made an early exit against the Nets on Saturday due to back spasms but is again on the injury report with a right knee posterior impingement. The 2024 NBA Finals MVP has regularly played through the injury in recent weeks, but he will take the night off on Tuesday. Sam Hauser is likely to grab Brown's spot in the starting lineup, while Payton Pritchard will have an opportunity to contribute more off the bench. Over his previous 14 starts this season, Hauser has averaged 12.0 points and 4.0 rebounds.
