Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is available for Monday's matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers. Doncic is still dealing with soreness in his right ankle, but he'll play through it against Philadelphia and likely take on his usual workload. Monday marks the front end of Dallas' back-to-back set, though. With Joel Embiid (knee) soon becoming ineligible for the 2023-24 MVP award, Doncic is certainly in the running with averages of 34.8 points, 9.6 assists, 8.6 rebounds, 3.9 threes, and 1.4 steals over 41 games. Co-superstar Kyrie Irving (thumb) is back in the Mavs lineup for this one, so while Doncic will have a bit less on his plate, he is still an elite DFS play with this game carrying the highest implied point total (244.5) on Monday's six-game slate.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Herbert Jones (groin) is considered questionable for Monday's meeting with the Raptors. The versatile forward could be unavailable for a third straight game. However, Jones got through a full practice session on Sunday, which points to the fact that he might be ready to return. Trey Murphy III has earned a pair of starts during Jones' absence, although his workload actually hasn't increased, as the 23-year-old has featured heavily off the bench all season. Youngsters Dyson Daniels and Jordan Hawkins will take a hit with Jones' return.

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) is on the injury report as questionable ahead of Monday's action versus the Clippers. The 26-year-old has just returned from a 19-game absence, and the team is trying to manage his right knee injury. Hunter sat out the first leg of a back-to-back on Friday versus Phoenix before returning to the court on Saturday against Golden State. He's been limited to 16 minutes in both of his outings since the long injury layoff, meaning fantasy managers won't currently get much value from Hunter.

Atlanta Hawks forward Saddiq Bey (ankle) could be out for a second consecutive game on Monday against the Clippers. Bey sprained his left ankle against Phoenix on Friday and wasn't available for Saturday's contest versus Golden State. Garrison Mathews took Bey's spot in the starting unit but logged only 16 minutes. Bogdan Bogdanovic ended up picking up extra shifts off the bench and logged nearly 40 minutes in an overtime game. He will be counted on a lot again if Bey can't play on Monday.

Brooklyn Nets guard Dennis Smith Jr. (foot) looks set to rejoin the action Monday versus Golden State. He missed Saturday's blowout win over Philadelphia with right foot soreness, but the Nets have listed him as probable for Monday. Smith Jr.'s fantasy value is relatively low, with him averaging fewer than 20 minutes a night as a reserve. But he has been a good source for steals lately, averaging nearly two of them per game over his last nine appearances, and Smith Jr. could get some extra work on Monday with Ben Simmons (back) out.
