Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) is listed as probable ahead of Monday's game against the Houston Rockets. James has played in five straight games following a seven-game absence. He has been a regular on the injury report, but James usually does play. He doesn't appear to be impacted on the court by this groin issue, so fantasy managers should expect James to be out there. Fantasy managers should double check ahead of tip-off just in case something happens pre-game.


Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Chet Holmgren (hip) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This has been frustrating for fantasy managers as Holmgren has been in and out of the lineup lately. He continues to nurse a left hip injury and the Thunder are going to be cautious with him because the playoffs are quickly approaching. The Thunder are fairly banged up, so it's unclear who exactly would benefit at the moment. If he sits, Isaiah Hartenstein (hip), Kenrich Williams, and Jaylin Williams (hip) all stand to gain value.


Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) won't return to Sunday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Kuminga was forced to exit in the middle of the second quarter after suffering a right ankle injury. The expectation is Kuminga will undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury. For now, fantasy managers should consider Kuminga as day-to-day, but they should get an update on his status soon. Gui Santos and Buddy Hield should both benefit with more playing time with Kuminga not returning on Sunday.


Oklahoma City Thunder center Isaiah Hartenstein (hip) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Hartenstein is in danger of missing this game after exiting early on Saturday due to left hip soreness. The Thunder could be in trouble with Chet Holmgren (hip) and Jaylin Williams (hip) also tagged as questionable for Monday. If they sit, Kenrich Williams, Branden Carlson, and Dillon Jones could all see increased roles. Between the three, Williams would be the only player worth considering as a streaming option.


Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jaylin Williams (hip) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Williams recently suffered a hip injury and is now in danger of missing his second straight game. This comes at a bad time with Chet Holmgren (hip) and Isaiah Hartenstein (hip) both questionable for this game as well. That being said, Kenrich Williams could be looking at big minutes if some of these players are unable to suit up.
