Sacramento Kings forward Domantas Sabonis (illness) has been upgraded to available ahead of Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The star forward is ready to go after being listed as questionable heading into this game. Sabonis has been red-hot with five triple-doubles in his last seven games. Fantasy managers better make sure Sabonis isn't on their bench ahead of this contest.


Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (Achilles) has been cleared to play ahead of Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The superstar big man will suit up for this game after being listed as probable earlier in the day. Davis will be asked to carry a heavier workload on offense with LeBron James (ankle) sidelined once again. Fantasy managers should make sure they don't have Davis on their bench ahead of this Thursday night contest.


Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) is questionable ahead of Friday's matchup with the Pelicans. The sharpshooter logged 38 minutes against the 76ers over a week ago, Miami's last game before the All-Star break. However, he's dealing with right foot discomfort, which could be enough to keep him off the floor. With Josh Richardson (shoulder) and Terry Rozier (knee) out, Duncan Robinson (shoulder) could take Herro's spot in the starting lineup. There's also a chance for the newly signed Delon Wright to get involved, although he's a risky fantasy option.


Dallas Mavericks forward/center Maxi Kleber (nose) will play on Thursday night versus Phoenix. Like Luka Doncic and Dereck Lively II, Kleber has dealt with a nasal fracture of his own. He's also been burdened by a toe injury, which kept him off the floor for a few months this season. However, Kleber is good to go on Thursday night. Yet, with Lively, Daniel Gafford, and P.J. Washington also active, it will be tough for him to get involved enough to make an impact for fantasy managers.

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (nose) is officially active for Thursday's game against the Suns. He missed seven games because of a nose injury, which required surgical intervention. He returned for the Mavs' meeting versus the Spurs heading into the All-Star break. However, he came off the bench in that one. But he'll return to the starting lineup versus Phoenix, although he'll have Daniel Gafford breathing down his neck for a chance to get on the floor. While both men deserve fantasy consideration for all lineups, neither player could have a clear edge on fantasy production moving ahead.
