Jerami Grant

POR Power Forward #9

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Jerami Grant (knee) is doubtful for Sunday’s game against the Spurs and Scoot Henderson (concussion) is out.

Grant has not appeared in a game since March 9, which is unlikely to change on Sunday. Deni Avdija has been firmly entrenched in the starting lineup ever since and has done enough to merit being rostered in most fantasy leagues. As for Henderson, Sunday’s game will be the fifth he’s missed due to concussion protocols. Dalano Banton has played consistent rotation minutes, recently starting since the Blazers were also without Anfernee Simons.

Josh Minott

BOS Forward #8

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Josh Minott (ankle) is out for Friday’s game against the Raptors.

Minott will miss a third straight game with a sprained left ankle. His continued absence does not affect fantasy basketball, as the Celtics have relied more on Jordan Walsh and Sam Hauser in recent games.

Trey Murphy

NOP Forward #25
Trey Murphy (back) is questionable for Friday’s game against the Wizards.

One night removed from scoring a career-high 42 points, Murphy did not play in Wednesday’s loss to the Hawks. Karlo Matković moved into the starting lineup, but Bryce McGowens replaced him to begin the second half. Both players will lose out on minutes if Murphy returns on Friday.

Herbert Jones

NOP Forward #2
Herb Jones (ankle) is doubtful for Friday’s game against the Wizards.

Jones did not play in Wednesday’s loss to the Hawks, which was the Pelicans’ second game in as many nights. With the doubtful tag, he appears on track to miss a second consecutive game. Jordan Poole may remain in the starting lineup if Jones sits, raising his fantasy ceiling.

Saddiq Bey

NOP Guard-Forward #41
Saddiq Bey (hip) is out for Friday’s game against the Wizards.

Friday’s game will be the fifth that Bey has missed with a strained right hip flexor. Karlo Matković moved into the starting lineup for Wednesday’s loss to the Hawks, but the Pelicans were also without Trey Murphy and Herb Jones. If Murphy can play against the Wizards, Matković will likely be headed to the bench.

Jose Alvarado

NOP Guard #15
Jose Alvarado (oblique) is out for Friday’s game against the Wizards.

Alvarado appeared to tweak something during Tuesday’s loss to the Lakers, but he was still on the floor in crunch time. The point guard’s sore oblique will keep him out for at least one game, likely resulting in more minutes at point guard for Jordan Poole. Jordan Hawkins could enter the rotation, but there’s no need to stream him.

Josh Hart

NYK Guard #3
Josh Hart (ankle) is out for Friday’s game against the Suns.

Hart has been out since spraining his right ankle on Christmas Day against the Cavaliers. Based on the most recent timeline provided by the team, with the wing set to be re-evaluated on Friday, there may be a chance he plays during New York’s four-game road trip. Miles McBride played well as the fifth starter in Wednesday’s win over the Clippers and should retain that role.

Jase Richardson

ORL Guard #11

Jase Richardson (ankle) is questionable for Friday’s game against the 76ers.

Absent from the Magic injury report ahead of Wednesday’s win over the Nets, Richardson was announced as questionable to play during the first half and never checked in. His absence did not significantly affect the playing time of Orlando’s other reserves, as the starters played more after being benched for the entire fourth quarter of Tuesday’s loss to the Wizards.

Kevin Love

UTA Forward-Center #42

Kevin Love is not on the injury report for Thursday’s game against the Mavericks.

Love was rested on Wednesday’s game against the Thunder, so it makes sense that he would be good to go for the second leg of the back-to-back. With Jusuf Nurkic listed as questionable, it’s possible that Love could return to play around 20 minutes in this one.

Ace Bailey

UTA Forward #19
Ace Bailey is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Mavericks with a hip injury.

Bailey missed five games with a hip injury but returned last night to play 10 minutes against the Thunder. The Jazz are clearly going to be cautious with their rookie, so they may sit Bailey for the second game of a back-to-back. That would likely mean more minutes for Brice Sensabaugh on Thursday.

Jusuf Nurkić

UTA Center #30
Jusuf Nurkić is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Mavericks with a toe injury.

Nurkić has played at least 30 minutes in each of the last two games, and scored 15 points with 15 rebounds against the Thunder last night. However, the Jazz have been selected in how they rest players, considering they are not in contention this season, but also are playing good basketball of late. If Nurkić were to sit on Thursday, that would likely mean more minutes for Kyle Filipowski since the Jazz don’t really have another traditional center.
