Keldon Johnson

SAS Small Forward #3

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Keldon Johnson has been ruled out of Friday’s matchup with the Pelicans due to a left foot sprain.

San Antonio will also be down Jeremy Sochan and Devin Vassell, leaving the rotation wildly shorthanded. Malaki Branham has started each of the Spurs’ last two games with Johnson on the sidelines, posting averages of 18.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.0 triples across 34.0 minutes. Cedi Osman (ankle) is also sidelined, so Sandro Mamukelashvili could see expanded playing time.

Jaxson Hayes

LAL Center-Forward #11

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Jaxson Hayes (ankle) has been ruled out against the Magic on Tuesday.

Hayes exited early from Sunday’s game and will remain sidelined against Orlando. Rui Hachimura spent some time as a small-ball center, though Drew Timme should also help fill some of the minutes down low when Deandre Ayton is on the bench.

Rockets' Smith Jr. a safe option for fantasy value

February 24, 2026 02:58 PM

Eric Samulski discusses Jabari Smith Jr.'s impressive play recently as the Rockets' predominant big man and how his consistency playing an average of 35 minutes per game makes him a reliable option in fantasy.

Devin Carter

SAC Guard #22
Devin Carter (back) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Rockets.

Carter did not play in Monday’s win over the Grizzlies, which factored into recent signing Killian Hayes playing 11 minutes off the bench. If Carter can play against the Rockets, don’t expect to see too much of Hayes.

Robert Williams

POR Center-Forward #35
Robert Williams III (foot) is questionable for Tuesday’s matchup with the Timberwolves.

Williams III is a late addition to the injury report with right foot soreness, which doesn’t bode well for his availability. With Yang Hansen on assignment in the G League, Donovan Clingan would presumably be in line for monster minutes if Williams III is forced to sit.

Jalen Smith

CHI Forward-Center #25
Jalen Smith (calf) is out for Tuesday’s matchup with the Hornets.

Smith sustained a right calf strain in Sunday’s loss to the Knicks, and it will cost him at least one game. In Smith’s absence, Guerschon Yabusele should see additional run, making him a worthwhile pickup off the waiver wire.

Jordan Goodwin

PHX Guard #23
Suns reporter Mark McClune reports that Jordan Goodwin (calf) will be re-evaluated in 1-2 weeks.

Goodwin’s absence should mean plenty of playing time for Collin Gillespie, with Jamaree Bouyea logging additional minutes off the bench.

Micah Peavy

NOP Guard-Forward #14

Micah Peavy (toe) is out for Tuesday’s matchup with the Warriors.

It’s unclear when Peavy will return to New Orleans’ lineup, but his availability isn’t particularly significant to fantasy managers due to his limited involvement in the Pels’ rotation.

Naz Reid

MIN Center-Forward #11
Naz Reid (shoulder) is available for Tuesday’s matchup with the Trail Blazers.

Reid will return following a one-game absence, which should cut significantly into Joan Beringer’s minutes. With Rudy Gobert back after serving a one-game suspension, Reid should handle his usual role as Minnesota’s Sixth Man.

Amen Thompson

HOU Guard-Forward #1
Amen Thompson (quad) is out for Wednesday’s matchup with the Kings.

Thompson is dealing with left quadricep tendonitis, and the injury will cost him at least one game. In Thompson’s absence, Reed Sheppard could join the starting lineup, making him an intriguing streamer in a favorable matchup with Sacramento’s shorthanded defense.

Vince Williams

UTA Guard #0
ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that Vince Williams Jr. will miss the rest of the season with a torn left ACL.

Williams Jr. sustained the injury in Monday’s matchup with Houston after colliding with Tari Eason. His absence could mean more run for John Konchar to close out the 2025-26 campaign.

Draymond Green

GSW Forward #23
Draymond Green (back) is probable for Tuesday’s matchup with the Pelicans.

Green sat out Sunday’s win over the Nuggets, but he’s expected to return following a one-game absence. He should see plenty of run with both Al Horford (toe) and Kristaps Porziņģis (illness) ruled out.
