Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (back) will remain on the shelf for Tuesday's meeting with the New Orleans Pelicans. He is struggling to recover from a lower back injury, and with only a few games left in the regular season, it would not be surprising if the Nets go the rest of the way without Johnson. With Johnson sidelined, Trendon Watford is likely to receive a third consecutive start. Watford has averaged 12.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 4.5 assists since moving to the starting unit.

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Ben Sheppard (toe) has been labeled as questionable for Tuesday's tilt against the Washington Wizards. A toe injury might lead to a second consecutive absence for Sheppard, who is averaging 5.3 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.3 steals in 19.5 minutes for the season. Sheppard is a valuable member of the rotation, but his game is not suited for fantasy basketball. Aaron Nesmith and Bennedict Mathurin, who tend to be significantly more productive, will likely share the leftover minutes on Tuesday night if Sheppard cannot return.

Indiana Pacers forward/center Pascal Siakam (elbow) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Siakam missed only his second game of the season on Sunday against the Denver Nuggets when he had to depart the lineup due to an elbow injury. Obi Toppin moved into the starting unit and had a big game with 22 points. He will likely keep hold of the spot if Siakam does not return on Tuesday. It's a juicy matchup against the league's weakest defense, so Toppin may do even better than his performance on Sunday.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Amir Coffey (knee) will miss a fifth consecutive game on Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs. He is dealing with inflammation in his left knee. Coffey has been a useful piece in the rotation for the Clippers this season, averaging 9.8 points in 24.6 minutes. However, his playing time has decreased recently, as the team has become healthier. The 27-year-old has not logged more than 16 minutes in any of his five appearances, meaning Coffey is not a big loss for the Clippers.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) has been tagged as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the San Antonio Spurs. Last week, Leonard played both legs of a back-to-back for the first time this season, but the Clippers once again have two games in as many nights, and the team may want to give the injury-prone star some time off. If Leonard exits the lineup on Tuesday, Norman Powell and Bogdan Bogdanovic will take on more significant roles on the offensive end. Meanwhile, Derrick Jones Jr. and Nicolas Batum will have the opportunity to earn more playing time, with one of them likely stepping into Leonard's role in the starting unit.
