Jakob Poeltl Leaves Sunday With Dislocated Finger

Toronto Raptors center Jakob Poeltl (finger) left the game against the Charlotte Hornets in the second quarter with a dislocated pinky finger. During his 15 minutes of playing time, Poeltl finished with eight points, three assists, two rebounds, one block, and one turnover while shooting 4-for-6 from the floor. The veteran big man has provided a much-needed inside presence since returning from injury. In the 13-game stretch since then, he's averaged 12.7 points, 9.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.9 blocks, and 1.5 turnovers per game. Kelly Olynyk has seen some added opportunities and should move into the starting five if Poeltl has to miss any more time. Jontay Porter would also get some more minutes from the bench.

Ben Simmons Questionable Against Grizzlies On Monday

Brooklyn Nets forward Ben Simmons (back) remains on the injury report but was at least listed as questionable while he still suffers from nerve impingement in his lower back. Simmons has been out for the last three games after appearing in three consecutive games before that. The 27-year-old has appeared in 15 total games so far this season and he vowed to give the team everything he has whether he's hurt or fully healthy. When he plays, he has some value in deeper fantasy leagues, but his value is very limited since he hasn't been on the court. If he has to miss another game, Jalen Wilson and Dorian Finney-Smith will continue to see more minutes.

Bradley Beal Expected To Play On Sunday

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) is listed as probable for their game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The star combo guard played in their last game on Saturday against the Houston Rockets but he was only able to play 20 minutes. In that time, he registered just seven points, two rebounds, two assists, and two turnovers while shooting 3-for-6 from the floor. It's unclear how many minutes he'll receive in this matchup but with Devin Booker (ankle) ruled out, they'll need contributions from Beal to get a win over a very good Thunder team. Grayson Allen and Eric Gordon will likely play big roles if Beal can't put it in a full workload.

Jaren Jackson Jr. Likely Out Against Brooklyn

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps) isn't expected to play on Monday in Brooklyn. The reigning Defensive Player of the Year has missed the previous two games because of a quadriceps issue. It's unlikely the Grizzlies will rush him back, considering the team is a long shot to make the postseason. At any rate, until Jackson is back on the floor, Lamar Stevens could remain in the starting lineup. However, Stevens isn't a consistent scorer, making him hard to trust for fantasy purposes.

Jerami Grant Expected To Miss Monday's Game

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (quadriceps) is doubtful ahead of Monday's game in Minnesota. He logged 15 minutes on Saturday night against Memphis before exiting with quadriceps soreness, so an injury designation was expected. The Blazers are hurting on the offensive end, considering Malcolm Brogdon (elbow), Scoot Henderson (adductor), and Shaedon Sharpe (abdomen) aren't available. To make matters worse, Deandre Ayton (hand) may not be ready to return. As a result, Anfernee Simons should be the No. 1 option on the offensive end. At the same time, Toumani Camara and Jabari Walker could see a significant uptick in fantasy production.
