Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (ankle) is good to go on Thursday night in Memphis. Lillard has been bothered by a left ankle injury over the last few weeks. However, he only missed a few games and has been available for the team's previous three contests. The multi-time All-Star has seen a dip on the scoring end this season. Yet, Lillard remains a top fantasy option in any format, and he could be in for a big night versus a Memphis team with 10 players listed on the injury report.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is available for Thursday's game in Memphis. He was listed as probable, so there wasn't much concern from fantasy managers concerning his status for the Bucks' final game entering the All-Star break. This will be Antetokounmpo's first meeting versus the Grizzlies this season. But with Memphis listing 10 players on the injury report, the 29-year-old could have one of his most dominant performances of the 2023-24 campaign.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James was the topic of trade rumblings before the deadline. However, his agent Rich Paul, speaking on the Stephen A. Smith Show, indicated that his client isn't going anywhere. "He's committed to the Lakers," said Paul. "Obviously, there's ups and downs and emotions throughout the course of a season, but ultimately, LeBron's committed to the Lakers." The trade deadline is in the rearview mirror, and the multi-time MVP is still on the roster. There were reports Golden State attempted to acquire him. However, that clearly never happened. James remains a top fantasy producer despite various injuries over the last few years. He's averaging 24.8 points, 7.8 assists, and 7.2 rebounds this season. Even better, he's shooting 39.5% from deep, the second-highest mark of his career. Nevertheless, the 39-year-old could have at least a few more seasons left in the tank, and he's anticipated to remain one of the best players in the National Basketball Association until he decides to eventually hang up his shoes.

Detroit Pistons forward/center Isaiah Stewart (ankle) was arrested on Wednesday after punching Phoenix Suns center Drew Eubanks. The incident occurred hours before the teams clashed at the Footprint Center in Phoenix. Eubanks said there was an altercation as he entered the arena. He said an argument started, and the two players were chest to chest before Stewart threw a punch. Phoenix police said in a statement that Stewart was arrested for assault and issued a citation and released. The Detroit big man missed an eighth consecutive game with an ankle injury. Eubanks went on to play and helped the Suns to a 116-100 victory with a six-point, six-rebound effort off the bench. Stewart was set to return to action after the All-Star break, but his comeback might be delayed now because of a potential suspension.

Golden State Warriors point guard Chris Paul (hand) is making "good progress," the team announced on Wednesday. The 12-time All-Star has missed 16 games with a fractured left hand, but it looks like his comeback isn't far away anymore. Golden State added that Paul is expected to intensify his on-court activities after the All-Star break, and he will be re-evaluated again in 10 days. Paul's eventual return will be a blow to Brandin Podziemski's playing time.
