Gary

Payton

Richard is a late addition to Monday’s injury report, which puts his status in question against Memphis. Richard’s absence could free up additional playing time for the likes of De’Anthony Melton and Gary Payton II.

Melton is a late addition to the injury report, so there is definitely a chance he misses this game. Pat Spencer and Gary Payton II should be in line for extra minutes if he’s out, and with Buddy Hield now in Atlanta, Spencer would hold some upside as a streamer.

Payton was initially probable for Wednesday’s game, so this was the expected outcome. He’ll provide depth off the bench but is unlikely to do enough to affect fantasy basketball. Leave Payton on the waiver wire.

GPII is managing a right calf contusion, but he isn’t expected to miss this game as a result. He should play hos typical role off the bench, though that hasn’t led to much fantasy production from him this season.

GP2 was initially questionable for this game, but he’ll be able to suit up. He’ll continue to occupy a minimal role off the bench as a high-energy defender, which doesn’t translate well to fantasy basketball.

This is a new injury for Payton II, who is dealing with right foot soreness. If Payton II is forced to sit out against Dallas, De’Anthony Melton could see a bump in playing time.

Green sat out Monday against the Heat, but he has a chance to return for the second leg of Golden State’s back-to-back set. Al Horford (toe) is unsurprisingly out after playing on Monday, so Gary Payton II could see a big bump in minutes if Green is ultimately ruled out.

Green was initially listed as probable, but he was downgraded to questionable earlier this evening. He has now been ruled out about four hours before tip-off. Gary Payton II and Al Horford should both help make up for Green’s absence, though neither holds much upside for fantasy managers. Green is expected to be available for Tuesday’s game against the Raptors.

Green was initially listed as probable for this game, but he has since been downgraded and now could be held out. In that scenario, Gary Payton II and Al Horford would likely take on extra minutes.

Green has a sprained right ankle, but the probable tag suggests that he will be available for Monday’s game. If he can’t play, Gary Payton II will figure more prominently in the rotation due to his defensive ability. However, GPII is not a player who has to be rostered in most leagues.
