Lineup Update: Cavs will start Goodwin, Okoro, Wade, Mobley, Allen on Sunday. Brandon Goodwin will get the start at point guard with Darius Garland ruled out.
As reported by: Cleveland Cavaliers
Eric Gordon (heel) ruled out Sunday
Eric Gordon (heel) has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Pelicans. With Gordon ruled out, Garrison Matthews and Josh Christopher seem to be the most likely candidates to replace him in the starting lineup for the Rockets. Both should see an increase in minutes as they fill in for Gordon’s wing role. Kevin Porter Jr. remains a game-time decision and if he were to be ruled out more value would open up with Christian Wood, Jalen Green, and Jae’Sean Tate forced to shoulder more of the offensive load for Houston.
As reported by: Cayleigh Griffin Danilo Gallinari (hamstring) available to play Sunday
Danilo Gallinari (hamstring) will be available to play Sunday against the Dallas Mavericks. Gallinari should play his normal role as one of the core rotation pieces for the Hawks.
As reported by: Chris Kirschner Darius Garland (back) ruled out Sunday
Darius Garland (back) has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Indiana Pacers. With Garland out, Brandon Goodwin seems like the most likely candidate to enter the starting lineup where he would be the primary facilitator of the Cleveland offense.
As reported by: Serena Winters John Collins (heel) available to play Sunday; Lou Williams (hamstring) ruled out
John Collins (heel) will be available to play Sunday against the Dallas Mavericks, while Lou Williams (hamstring) has been ruled out. It is worth noting that Danilo Gallinari still remains questionable at this time. Collins is expected to start and see his normal run. With Williams out, Delon Wright could see some more run for the Hawks with Kevin Knox possibly entering the rotation.

Domantas Sabonis (protocols) and Goga Bitadze (foot) will be available Sunday against the Cleveland Cavaliers, while Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles) has been ruled out. Sabonis should start and play the bulk of the center minutes with Goga Bitadze available to back him up. With Brogdon out and LeVert set to be traded, Sabonis should see most of the offense run through him making him a better play. Chris Duarte, Duane Washington, Lance Stephenson, Jeremy Lamb, and Keifer Sykes should all see more minutes with LeVert and Brogdon out.

Caris LeVert is set to be traded to the Cavaliers for Ricky Rubio and draft picks according to Adrian Wojnarowski. For DFS players this is significant due to LeVert being slated to start for the Pacers today. With LeVert out, Chris Duarte could join the starting lineup and should see increased run. Other beneficiaries include Duane Washington and Lance Stephenson who could see increased bench minutes. We are still waiting on the status of Malcolm Brogdon, Domantas Sabonis, and Goga Bitadze who are all still listed questionable for today’s game.
As reported by: Adrian Wojnarowski Mo Bamba (ankle) available and will start Sunday
Mo Bamba (ankle) will be available and start Sunday against the Boston Celtics. Despite being listed as questionable on the injury report earlier in the day, Bamba has been cleared and is expected to play his normal role for the Magic. Bamba, Wendell Carter Jr., Chuma Okeke, and Moe Wagner should see the majority of the big man minutes for Orlando tonight with Robin Lopez available off the bench if needed.

As reported by: Rich Hofmann Furkan Korkmaz available Sunday; Matisse Thybulle ruled out
Furkan Korkmaz will be available Sunday against the Chicago Bulls, while Matisse Thybulle has been ruled out. Despite an earlier report stating Korkmaz was ruled out, he will in fact be available and will play a larger role with Thybulle out. Danny Green will slot into the starting lineup with Korkmaz and Isaiah Joe available to back him up.
As reported by: Keith Pompey Other tagged players: Matisse Thybulle Bulls will start Dosunmu, Brown Jr., DeRozan, Green, Vucevic on Sunday
Bulls will start Dosunmu, Brown Jr., DeRozan, Green, Vucevic on Sunday. With Coby White and Zach Lavine ruled out again the Bulls will go with the same starting five as last game.
As reported by: Chicago Bulls Cade Cunningham (hip) ruled out Sunday
Cade Cunningham (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday’s matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves. With Cunningham out, Hamidou Diallo looks to be the most likely candidate to join the starting lineup with Cory Joseph seeing more ballhandling opportunities. Diallo should see increased run and should play a larger role in the Detroit offense along with Jerami Grant and Saddiq Bey.
As reported by: Alan Horton Patrick Beverley (ankle) and Leandro Bolmaro (ankle) listed available to play Sunday; Josh Okogie listed out
Patrick Beverley (ankle) and Leandro Bolmaro (ankle) have been listed available to play for Sunday’s game against the Detroit Pistons, while Josh Okogie has been listed out. The only important news here is that Beverley will be available and will likely start at point guard for Minnesota. Bolmaro could see some minutes at the backend of the rotation but this isn’t likely with the Timberwolves getting healthier. Okogie was not expected to play much of a role today and any minutes he would have seen will be picked up by other rotational pieces.
As reported by: Official NBA Injury Report Other tagged players: Leandro Bolmaro, Josh Okogie Coby White (adductor) listed out Sunday
Coby White (adductor) has been listed out for Sunday’s game against the Philadelphia 76ers. With Coby White now ruled out, Ayo Dosunmu should run point for the Bulls with Troy Brown the most likely candidate to enter the starting lineup. Dosunmu, DeMar DeRozan, and Nikola Vucevic should carry the bulk of the offensive workload for Chicago and can be considered in DFS contests if playing the early slate.
As reported by: Official NBA Injury Report Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Austin Rivers (ankle) listed available to play Sunday
Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Austin Rivers (ankle) have been listed available to play Sunday against the Brooklyn Nets. Both Gordon and Rivers should see their usual run as the Nuggets are the healthiest they have been over the course of the last week or so.
