Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (hand) won't play on Wednesday against the Timberwolves. The 25-year-old missed the last two games because of a sprained hand. He was listed as questionable on the injury report, so fantasy managers had hoped he'd be back on the floor. However, Ayton will miss another game. In the meantime, Duop Reath, who had 12 points, six boards, and three blocks on Saturday, is worth starting in any fantasy format.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kyle Anderson (knee) will suit up on Monday versus Portland. Anderson's status for the game was initially left in limbo when he was listed on the injury report with a questionable tag, but it's now confirmed Anderson will be good to go for the second leg of a back-to-back. Returning from a two-game absence, Anderson played 14 minutes against the Clippers on Sunday. He had eight points with three rebounds, three assists, and one block. We should see the same kind of production from him on Monday against the second-worst team in the Western Conference.

Los Angeles Clippers guard Russell Westbrook (hand) underwent surgery on Monday. The 35-year-old fractured his left hand on Friday night versus the Washington Wizards. He's expected to make a complete recovery, and there is hope he'll be back before the postseason commences. Nonetheless, Westbrook is nowhere near the player he once was. He's averaged a career-low 11.1 points with 5.1 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.1 steals this season. As a result, fantasy managers can drop him from the roster.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Yuta Watanabe (wrist) has been ruled out for Monday's clash with Brooklyn. The 29-year-old won't be able to have a reunion with his former team due to a right wrist sprain. After starting the campaign in Phoenix, Watanabe landed with his original team, the Grizzlies, last month. He's played a slightly larger role in Memphis, but hasn't done anything to garner the attention of fantasy managers. In 16.4 minutes across five games, Watanabe has recorded 2.6 points and 1.8 rebounds. With him out of the lineup, Lamar Stevens and Matt Hurt will likely be the main beneficiaries, and the two should also profit from Jaren Jackson Jr.'s (quadriceps) absence.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (Achilles) won't play on Monday against the Clippers. The multi-time MVP was listed as questionable because of Achilles soreness. He attempted to go through pregame warmups. However, he cut things short, so it's apparent things didn't go well. At any rate, fantasy managers should expect Antetokounmpo to appear on the injury report heading into Wednesday's matchup in Golden State. In the meantime, Damian Lillard, Brook Lopez, Malik Beasley, and Jae Crowder could all see an uptick in fantasy production.
