Chicago Bulls guard/forward Zach LaVine (ankle) is expected to miss at least one more week of action. He will sit out a seventh consecutive contest on Saturday against Sacramento. Ayo Dosunmu has taken on a big workload during LaVine's absence, while Alex Caruso has also benefited from the situation. The two could even get a further boost on Saturday, along with Jevon Carter, as Coby White (ankle) is considered questionable and might sit out his first game of the season.

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) is targeting Monday's matchup against Dallas for his return. He's been out of the lineup since Jan. 12 and will miss an 11th consecutive game when Philadelphia faces Brooklyn on Saturday. Kelly Oubre Jr. has enjoyed a regular starter's role during Melton's absence, with Patrick Beverley also benefitting from the situation. Oubre Jr. has proven himself to be a productive player even in a bench role, so Melton's return shouldn't affect him much, but Beverley's chances for extra playing time will be hampered with a fully healthy backcourt.

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Marcus Morris Sr. (foot) is listed as questionable for Saturday's clash with Brooklyn. The veteran could be out for a third game in a row due to left foot pain. Morris Sr. has recently played a much bigger role in Philadelphia's plans due to Joel Embiid's (knee) injury troubles. He will have his next chance to return on Monday versus Dallas if he can't play on Saturday. Mo Bamba and Kenyon Martin Jr. have been the main frontcourt backups with Morris Sr. out. They haven't been very effective players from a fantasy perspective.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Nicolas Batum (hamstring) sits on the injury report as questionable for Saturday's clash with the Nets. The veteran is bothered by hamstring tightness and could be out for a third consecutive game. From a statistical point of view, the absence of Batum isn't big news, but he's been a regular starter ever since arriving in Philadelphia and does well all the little things that don't show on the box score. Danuel House Jr. has stepped into the starting five during Batum's absence. He has struggled to make his mark and isn't a good option for fantasy managers.

Brooklyn Nets guard Dennis Smith Jr. (foot) is questionable for Saturday's matchup against the 76ers. He's suffering from right foot soreness and could be out for the first time since Jan. 3. Smith Jr. has logged 19.6 minutes per game as a reserve for Brooklyn this season, posting 7.2 assists, 3.3 rebounds, and 4.0 assists with 1.2 steals. If he's out, most of Smith Jr.'s minutes should be filled by Ben Simmons (knee), who will likely return to the lineup on Saturday.
