Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (illness) will return to the starting five ahead of Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Simons will make his return to the court after a three-game absence due to a lingering illness. His return will shift veteran guard Malcolm Brogdon back to the bench. Although, Brogdon could still have some streaming value on Wednesday due to the fact Simons will be on a minutes limit. Fantasy managers in season-long formats can get Simons back in their lineups. However, he won't be a great DFS option on a busy slate with a minutes limit.

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (ankle) will suit up for Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. As expected, White will play after being listed as probable heading into this game due to right ankle soreness. He should resume his normal role in the starting five for this game. White has been putting up big points lately, so fantasy managers should make sure he's in their lineups on Wednesday night.

Dallas Mavericks forward Josh Green will move into the starting five ahead of Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The Mavs will be without Dante Exum (heel), so Green will shift into the starting unit. The move to the starting five should boost Green's fantasy value. However, his fantasy ceiling is going to be limited with both Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic healthy on Wednesday. Green is a solid defender and can hit a few 3-pointers, which still makes him worth a look as a streaming option.

Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (quad) is listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The young guard was not listed on the initial injury report, but was added a few hours before tip-off. The Magic are likely going to wait and see how Anthony feels pregame before making a final decision. Gary Harris and Anthony Black would see extended roles if Anthony is unable to play. Between the two, Harris is the better streaming option for Wednesday's slate, assuming Anthony sits out.

New Orleans Pelicans head coach Willie Green says forward Trey Murphy III (knee) is out on Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves and that he is "still day-to-day." Murphy is dealing with soreness in his left knee, and the 23-year-old sharpshooter will have a chance to end his three-game absence on Friday versus the visiting Los Angeles Clippers. Herbert Jones is starting to regain momentum after a fantastic start to the year, and he has handled greater responsibility on both ends of the floor for New Orleans on occasions when Murphy has been out of the Pelicans' lineup. In 19 games without Murphy, Jones is amassing 11.7 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.2 treys, and 2.9 combined steals and blocks in 30.7 minutes per game, but he draws a tough matchup against a 'Wolves team giving up the fewest points per game (107.5) in 2023-24.
