Pistons will start Joseph, McGruder, Bey, Grant, Stewart on Tuesday
Pistons will start Joseph, McGruder, Bey, Grant, Stewart on Tuesday. With Cade Cunningham ruled out and the Pistons thin at the wing position, Rodney McGruder will get the start. McGruder can be considered as a last piece but his minutes as well as play could be volatile.

Grizzlies will start Jones, Bane, Brooks, Jackson Jr., Adams on Tuesday. As expected, Tyus Jones will draw the start with Ja Morant ruled out and will be one of the best plays on the slate. He should be considered in all formats.

As reported by: Indiana PacersLineup Update: Nets will start Irving, Dragic, Brown, Durant, Drummond on Tuesday
Lineup Update: Nets will start Irving, Dragic, Brown, Durant, Drummond on Tuesday. Goran Dragic will draw the start for Seth Curry who will miss tonight’s game. Dragic will be worth consideration tonight as he is expected to play considerable minutes and is only 4.2K on DK.
As reported by: Brooklyn NetsGoga Bitadze (foot) out on Tuesday.
Goga Bitadze (foot) out on Tuesday. The Pacers will be forced to go small with Goga out, so this is a boost to Isaiah Jackson and Jalen Smith. The Grizzlies on the other side (Jaren Jackson Jr. and Steven Adams) will also fair better without having to deal with Bitadze.

Cade Cunningham (illness) out on Tuesday; Rodney McGruder and Killian Hayes available. With Cunningham out, it remains to be seen who will spot start for Cunningham but all of Diallo, McGruder, Livers and Hayes should stand to benefit.
As reported by: Rod Beard Other tagged players: Rodney McGruder, Killian HayesJa Morant (back) out on Tuesday.
Ja Morant (back) out on Tuesday. This is as expected and should allow Tyus Jones to spot start. Jones is an elite play in all formats assuming he is starting.
As reported by: Grizzlies PRJa Morant (back) will go through pre-game warmups but still listed as doubtful.
Ja Morant (back) will go through pre-game warmups but still listed as doubtful. We’ll provide another update as soon as his official status is revealed but for now, we still expect Tyus Jones to start in his place.
As reported by: Scott AgnessSeth Curry (ankle) and Cam Thomas (back) both out on Tuesday.
Seth Curry (ankle) and Cam Thomas (back) both out on Tuesday. The losses likely means Patty Mills moves into the starting lineup while Goran Dragic and James Johnson see larger roles in the second unit.
As reported by: Brooklyn Nets Other tagged players: Cam ThomasMalcolm Brogdon (head) , Chris Duarte (toe) and Lance Stephenson (ankle) all available on Tuesday; Goga Bitadze (foot) is a game-time decision.
Malcolm Brogdon (head) , Chris Duarte (toe) and Lance Stephenson (ankle) all available on Tuesday; Goga Bitadze (foot) is a game-time decision. The addition of Brogdon, Duarte and Stephenson to the team takes some of the value off the table that the Pacers could have offered.
As reported by: Scott Agness Other tagged players: Chris Duarte, Lance Stephenson, Goga BitadzeCJ McCollum (health protocols) available on Tuesday.
CJ McCollum (health protocols) available on Tuesday. With McCollum back, we likely see Devonte Graham shift back to the second unit, assuming they keep Naji Marshall as a starter. This changes the whole dynamic of the team, as the potential value we’ve been targeting with McCollum out becomes much less appealing. McCollum also now becomes an elite GPP option, as the offense will run thought him with Brandon Ingram still out.
As reported by: New Orleans PelicansCade Cunningham (illness) questionable on Tuesday; Killian Hayes (adductor) now available.
Cade Cunningham (illness) questionable on Tuesday; Killian Hayes (adductor) now available. If Cunningham can’t suit up tonight, the Pistons would be forced to rely on Isaiah Livers, who has been getting an extra long look at the end of the season with the Pistons in evaluation mode.
As reported by: NBA Injury Report Other tagged players: Killian HayesR.J. Hampton will start on Tuesday for Jalen Suggs; Gary Harris (knee) available to play.
R.J. Hampton will start on Tuesday for Jalen Suggs; Gary Harris (knee) available to play. With Suggs out, Hampton is the most logical replacement and will carry some punt appeal, but note that even with Suggs off the court this season per CourtIQ, Hampton has only averaged 0.78 fantasy points per minute. With Harris available off the bench, that will provide some more guard depth.
As reported by: Khobi Price Other tagged players: Gary HarrisJalen Suggs (ankle) out on Tuesday.
Jalen Suggs (ankle) out on Tuesday. With Suggs out, RJ Hampton is a candidate to draw a spot start. The biggest winner might be Markelle Fultz, who still hasn’t played major minutes but has now averaged 1.35 fantast points per minute this season with Suggs off the court.
