Kevin Porter Jr. (health protocols) available on Monday. Porter Jr. was initially questionable but has cleared health protocols and is good to.

Dennis Schroder (Achilles) available on Monday.
Dennis Schroder (Achilles) available on Monday. This is as expected as he was probable but wanted to make it official after testing his Achilles pre-game. Looks like the warm ups were fine and he’s in.
As reported by: Keith Smith Kings will start Mitchell, Haliburton, Barnes, Harkless and Holmes on Monday.
Kings will start Mitchell, Haliburton, Barnes, Harkless and Holmes on Monday. With Fox out, Davion Mitchell is confirmed starting. Moe Harkless will also draw the start as we expected Metu to start.
As reported by: James Ham Oshae Brissett (ankle) out on Monday.
Oshae Brissett (ankle) out on Monday. This is as expected as Brissett was trending out and Isaiah Jackson is expected to start.
As reported by: Indiana Pacers Darius Garland (back) out on Monday; Cedi Osman to start in his place.
Darius Garland (back) out on Monday; Cedi Osman to start in his place. I had thought Rajon Rondo might draw the start but looks like Osman will get his first start of the season alongside Isaac Okoro, who will do more point guard duties now. This leaves the second unit all to Kevin Love making him an elite GPP option.
As reported by: Chris Fedor Other tagged players: Cedi Osman De'Aaron Fox (ankle) out on Monday.
De’Aaron Fox (ankle) out on Monday. Davion Mitchell could be looking at another spot start while Tyrese Haliburton has taken the offensive load with Fox missing several games recently. Haliburton is super expensive on DK but more affordable on FD and a viable GPP option now that Fox is out.
As reported by: Fred Katz Isaiah Jackson expected to start at center for the Pacers on Monday.
Isaiah Jackson expected to start at center for the Pacers on Monday. Jackson has been a fantastic per-minute producer this season at 1.21 fantasy points per minute. He makes for a fine option in all formats now assuming he does start, as he’s not priced very expensively.
As reported by: James Boyd Tyus Jones (health protocols) available on Monday.
Tyus Jones (health protocols) available on Monday. This is good news for the Grizzlies but bad news for the second unit options like De’Anthony Melton and Kyle Anderson, who have to compete with Jones’ usage.
As reported by: Damichael Cole Trey Murphy (health protocols) available on Monday.
Trey Murphy (health protocols) available on Monday. Murphy hasn’t been in the rotation much lately so this isn’t DFS-noteworthy.
As reported by: Will Guillory Serge Ibaka will start in place of Ivica Zubac. Terance Mann will remain in the starting lineup with Nicolas Batum coming off the bench.
Serge Ibaka will start in place of Ivica Zubac. Terance Mann will remain in the starting lineup with Nicolas Batum coming off the bench. This will allow Ibaka to hold some punt appeal while Isaiah Hartenstein should continue to get backup center minutes and holds some GPP appeal.
As reported by: Ohm Youngmisuk Other tagged players: Terance Mann, Nicolas Batum, Isaiah Hartenstein Brandon Ingram (ankle) out Monday; Jonas Valanciunas and Josh Hart will warm-up and remain questionable.
Brandon Ingram (ankle) out Monday; Jonas Valanciunas and Josh Hart will warm-up and remain questionable. With Ingram out, this should allow Garrett Temple to remain starting. If Valanciunas is out, Willy Hernangomez should get a spot start. If Hart is out, there would be a potential Nickeil Alexander-Walker start.
As reported by: Erin Summers Other tagged players: Jonas Valanciunas, Josh Hart Ivica Zubac (calf) out; Nicolas Batum (back) available on Monday.
Ivica Zubac (calf) out; Nicolas Batum (back) available on Monday. It’s likely we see some kind of timeshare between Serge Ibaka and Isaiah Hartenstein.
As reported by: Tomer Azarly Other tagged players: Nicolas Batum Nemanja Bjelica (back) out on Monday.
Nemanja Bjelica (back) out on Monday. With Otto Porter, Draymond Green, Andre Iguodala and James Wiseman all out too, this is a sneaky GPP spot for Jonathan Kuminga in the event he gets extra run off the bench.
As reported by: NBA Injury Report Update: Oshae Brissett (ankle) a game time decision but "Carlisle isn't optimistic he will play."
Update: Oshae Brissett (ankle) a game time decision but “Carlisle isn’t optimistic he will play.” This is going to leave the Pacers thin on big men and could mean a spot start for Isaiah Jackson. Jackson should see plenty of run with all of Myles Turner, Domantas Sabonis, Goga Bitadze and Malcolm Brogdon out and now Brissett trending doubtful.
As reported by: Ohm Youngmisuk Other tagged players: Isaiah Jackson Goga Bitadze (foot) out on Monday; Oshae Brissett (ankle) is a game-time decision.
