Fantasy Impact: Fox is a new addition to Sacramento's injury report, being listed with a glute injury that is expected to leave him sidelined on Sunday night.

Fantasy Impact: Murray may miss Sacramento's game on Sunday. He's officially listed as questionable to play, and the team will make a decision about his availability closer to game time. His potential return would mean less work for Trey Lyles moving forward.


LeBron James (foot) is expected to play in Sunday night's game against the Houston Rockets. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: James should be in Los Angeles' lineup on Sunday night. He's listed on their injury report due to a foot injury, but it isn't serious and he is expected to play through it. He is having a solid season so far and should continue to contribute well from a fantasy perspective.


Jalen Hood-Schifino (hamstring) remains out for Sunday's game against the Houston Rockets. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Hood-Schifino is set to miss yet another game on Sunday. There has been no indication that his return is on the horizon, so fantasy managers should expect him to continue to miss more time, which has a minimal impact for fantasy purposes.


Gabe Vincent (oblique) is unlikely to play in Sunday's game against the Houston Rockets. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Vincent is likely to miss another game with an injury to his oblique. He's officially doubtful to play, so barring any unforeseen developments with his recovery, he will sit out against Houston. Shake Milton and Max Christie will continue to benefit from his absence.


Anthony Davis (ankle) is probable to play in Sunday night's game against the Houston Rockets. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: The Lakers are listing Davis on the injury report for Sunday night. This is not unexpected, as he's still managing an ankle injury for the time being. Fantasy managers should expect him to play and see his usual workload in a matchup against the Rockets.


Amen Thompson (suspension) is set to make his return in Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Thompson has been out for the past couple of games while serving a two-game suspension the NBA handed down to him, but he is set to make his return to the lineup on Sunday. Fantasy managers should feel confident starting him for however long he remains on the court moving forward.


Jock Landale (knee) is good to go for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: The big man was previously listed on the injury report with a knee issue, but it was nothing more than a minor injury and he has already been removed from the injury report for Sunday's game. He doesn't see much work in Houston's lineup, so fantasy managers shouldn't pay much mind to his status against the Lakers.


Tari Eason (leg) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Eason has been out for a while now thanks to a leg injury, and his doubtful tag indicates that he will likely miss another game on Sunday. His next chance to play will come on Tuesday against the Wizards, but there's no guarantee that he will be back in time for that game.


Jalen Brunson (calf) will play in Saturday night's game against the Chicago Bulls. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: As expected, Brunson will be available to play for the Knicks on Saturday night. His calf injury isn't serious at this point, and he should have no limitations in this game. He projects to be an elite fantasy option for however long he stays healthy and on the court.


Miles McBride (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Saturday will mark the third-straight game that McBride has missed with a hamstring injury. He's considered day-to-day for the time being, but it remains unclear whether or not he will miss more time beyond this game. Cameron Payne will see more work as a result of his absence.


Jeremy Sochan (back) is available to play in Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: The Spurs were without Sochan for one game, but he is already available to make his return to the lineup for them and will do so on Saturday. He should see a large workload and continue to be a relevant fantasy option for the foreseeable future.


Alex Caruso (hip) won't play in Sunday's game against the Boston Celtics. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: The Thunder will be without Caruso for a seventh-straight game on Sunday. He's still recovering from a hip injury, and it may still be a little while before he's ready to make his return. Luguentz Dort and Cason Wallace will see more work in the meantime.


Al Horford (rest) if off of the injury report for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: The big man sat out of Boston's last game as a rest game for him, but he is off of the injury report and will be good to go for Sunday's game against the Thunder. He should be started in nearly all fantasy league formats for the foreseeable future.


Jaylen Brown (shoulder) is questionable to play in Sunday's contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Brown has been out for the last two games due to a shoulder injury, and he is officially questionable to play in Boston's game on Sunday as well. Fantasy managers should prepare for Payton Pritchard and Derrick White to both see more work if the star guard is out against OKC.


Torrey Craig (leg) is unavailable to play in Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: The Bulls will be missing Craig on Saturday. He's still battling a leg injury right now, and he is not yet ready to make his return to the court. Look for Matas Buzelis to be a fantasy beneficiary of his absence.


John Collins (hip) is active for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Collins has been sidelined for a handful of games because of a hip injury, but he will be available to make his return to the lineup on Saturday. Fantasy managers shouldn't hesitate to start him in a solid matchup against Miami.


Khris Middleton (ankle) is available to play in Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

AJ Green (back) has been upgraded to active for Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Green is set to make his return to the lineup on Saturday after missing some time with a back injury. He should be in line to see his usual workload against Portland, although he doesn't project to be much more than a low-tier starter for the foreseeable future in most league formats.


Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) will play in Saturday night's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. (Source: NBA Injury Report)
