Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (ankle) is available ahead of Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. It was reported that Allen was going to play as long as he could get through his pregame routine. Allen has officially been cleared to play and should resume his role in the starting five. Dean Wade will head back to the bench and won't have as much streaming appeal. Fantasy managers can feel safe plugging Allen back into their lineups on Saturday.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) and center Anthony Davis (Achilles) are both active ahead of Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. Both players are back in the mix after sitting out of Thursday's contest. The return of these players means that Jaxson Hayes will head back to the bench. Jarred Vanderbilt (foot) was starting for James, but he suffered an injury during Thursday's game. As a result, Vanderbilt will miss time, which should mean more minutes for Rui Hachimura and Hayes in the rotation. Fantasy managers can get James and Davis back in their lineups for Saturday.

San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson (elbow) is available ahead of Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Johnson will make his return to the court after missing each of the last two games. The 24-year-old will play on Saturday and shouldn't be limited at all during this contest. Johnson is expected to continue coming off the bench, but he should still have decent fantasy value in that role.

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (nose) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. As expected, Lively will miss this game with him set to have surgery on his broken nose on Monday. Richaun Holmes figures to move into the starting five and have an increased role in the rotation. Holmes dropped a double-double on Wednesday and should continue having success until the Mavs get healthy.

Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving (thumb) has been officially ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. This doesn't come as a shock considering Irving was listed as doubtful heading into this game. The good news is, Irving reportedly had a few good days at practice and should be ready for Monday's game. In the meantime, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Josh Green will have extended roles in the rotation. Between the two, Hardaway is the better streaming option, but both have value for Saturday's slate.
