Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) is questionable heading into Thursday's showdown with the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran suffered a left hamstring injury during a game versus the Sacramento Kings and didn't suit up the following night against Detroit, the final game for the Suns heading into the All-Star break. Without question, Beal has been burdened by injuries this year. He battled a back injury earlier in the season and underwent a procedure on his nose in January. The 30-year-old has also averaged 18.2 points during the 2023-24 campaign, five points fewer than last season. Nevertheless, reports continue to indicate Beal will be out there on Thursday. But if he's not, Royce O'Neale, who's averaged 7.0 points, 5.0 boards, and 2.3 steals in three games with the Suns, is worth rostering in any fantasy league.

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (groin) is not listed on the injury report, indicating his availability for Thursday's game against the Cavaliers. The 22-year-old was ruled out late before the team's last game before the All-Star break but appears ready to play as the season resumes. With Markelle Fultz (knee) sidelined, Suggs may see a slight increase in usage, providing an opportunity for him to further showcase his skills. So far this season, Suggs has been averaging 12.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 2.4 assists in 26.9 minutes per game.

Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 25-year-old missed the Magic's final game before the All-Star break and will continue to sit out as he manages his knee injury at the start of the stretch run. With Gary Harris (calf) also unavailable, Cole Anthony and Joe Ingles are expected to take on larger roles in Fultz's absence. Fultz has been averaging 8.4 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 3.7 assists in 24 minutes per game this season.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (illness) is currently listed as questionable for the team's upcoming game against the Orlando Magic tomorrow. Despite playing 14 minutes and scoring 16 points in the All-Star Game, the 27-year-old might sit out Cleveland's first game after the break due to illness. Should Mitchell be unable to play, Caris LeVert is expected to see a significant increase in minutes, while Darius Garland is likely to experience a notable uptick in usage. Mitchell has been averaging 28.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 6.3 assists in 35.5 minutes per game this season.

Detroit Pistons big man Isaiah Stewart (ankle) is currently listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The 22-year-old has been sidelined for the past eight games due to an ankle injury and remains uncertain for the first game after the break. Initially expected to return for the stretch run, the team may choose to grant him additional time for full recovery. In the event Stewart is unable to play on Thursday, Simone Fontecchio is poised to see a significant increase in both minutes and usage. Stewart holds season averages of 11.0 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in 30.6 minutes per game.
