Allen injured his hamstring during the Suns’ penultimate game of the regular season, an April 10 loss to the Lakers. According to Ott, the veteran guard’s availability for Friday’s Play-In Tournament game against the Warriors will depend on whether he can sprint. Royce O’Neale and Collin Gillespie take on added importance in their respective roles with Allen unavailable.

Brooks had a positive impact in his 37 minutes on Tuesday before fouling out late in the fourth quarter. While on the floor, he was a pest defensively, as shown in his four steals, but also repeatedly made momentum-building shots while the Suns led. Despite taking only 10 shots on the evening, the veteran forward finished as one of three Suns players to tally at least 20 points. Phoenix will hope Brooks can be productive again on Friday against the winner of Wednesday’s Warriors-Clippers matchup.

Green was Phoenix’s best scorer on a night that he logged a team-high 39 minutes. He was cold from the three-point line but made up for his inefficiency from beyond the arc by dazzling in the paint and finding production in the midrange. Green, however, did commit five turnovers in the process. Still, his positives outweighed the negatives on this night, and he’ll have another opportunity to help Phoenix get into the playoffs on Friday when it faces the winner of Wednesday’s Clippers-Warriors game.

Booker had an off night on Tuesday, as he saw his streak of 30-point performances end at three games. He struggled overall from the field, missed the mark on both of his three-point attempts, and missed five free throws along the way. The veteran scorer played 38 minutes, despite dealing with foul trouble, but failed to make his usual impact. Still, he’ll have an opportunity to bounce back on Friday when the Suns take on the winner of Wednesday’s Clippers-Warriors matchup.

Booker is back after missing the final two regular-season games. His return gives Phoenix its leader and clear-cut No. 1 scoring option. The Suns have played well this season and could earn a playoff spot with a win over the Trail Blazers on Tuesday, whom they had a 2-1 record against during the regular season.

Tuesday’s absence marks Allen’s second straight missed game due to a hamstring injury. Without him, the Suns won’t have the services of one of their best and most reliable three-point shooters. His scoring and floor spacing off the bench will be missed, but Royce O’Neale could provide similar production in that specific role.

Allen suffered a left hamstring injury during Friday’s loss to the Lakers and hasn’t played since. The 30-year-old small forward was replaced in the lineup by Royce O’Neale, which could be the case again if Allen is ruled out on Tuesday.

The summer league star hasn’t played much during his rookie season, but with the Suns locked in as the seventh seed, he played 29 minutes off the bench, which led to the best offensive performance of his career. Brea showed a ton of scoring potential this summer, which is why Phoenix added him with the 41st pick. He likely won’t see the floor during the postseason, but this was an encouraging performance for him.

Maluach hasn’t seen the floor much during his rookie season, but over their last three games, he has played a significant role in two of them. He grabbed 14 rebounds in each, and he averaged 2.5 blocks during them, but he was much better offensively in this one. He set a new career high for scoring and knocked down multiple triples. Maluach won’t turn 20 until September and still has loads of upside. He isn’t ready to contribute for the Suns right now, but he is worth stashing in dynasty formats.

Bouyea got the starting nod in Game 82 with Phoenix having already clinched the seventh seed in the West. He took advantage of the opportunity and stuffed the stat sheet in a big way to lead the Suns to victory. Bouyea has had some productive outings this season, but he hasn’t seen more than a few minutes per game when this team is healthy. Don’t expect to see Bouyea on the floor much during the postseason.

Thompson played just over 10 minutes in Sunday’s season finale, and that was enough time for him to add another accomplishment to his career résumé. With his four three-pointers, the veteran sharpshooter finished with 202 on the season. Thompson has 11 seasons with at least 200 three-pointers; only Stephen Curry (13) has more. Klay is under contract for the 2026-27 season, but the days of him being a must-roster player in fantasy leagues are in the rear-view mirror.

As a two-way player, Cissé’s opportunities this season were somewhat limited. However, he got another extended opportunity on Sunday and finished with season-highs in points and rebounds. Add in the defensive stats, and this was an excellent stat line for fantasy managers whose leagues were active on Sunday. Cissé’s fantasy outlook for 2026-27 depends on whether he can secure a standard contract.

Dunn got his second straight start with the Suns locked into the seventh seed in the West. He was held to just one point in Friday’s loss to the Lakers, but he was much better in this game against the OKC backups. Dunn has been a solid rotation piece through the year, but he was mothballed in April. Dunn won’t produce to this level often, but it was a good reminder that he can still contribute for fantasy managers when he gets the chance.

The Mavericks’ rookies put on a show in Sunday’s season finale, and that doesn’t include Cooper Flagg, who left during the first half with a sprained ankle. Poulakidis put on a shooting exhibition, making eight of his 16 three-point attempts. And the rookie guard was at his best in the third quarter, scoring 22 points. Poulakidis is on a two-way contract, so he’ll have some work to do to lock down a consistent role. But the Mavericks should be encouraged by his finish to the season.

While Nembhard failed to grab that elusive tenth rebound, he did make some franchise history in Sunday’s season finale. His 23 assists were a single-game franchise rookie record and two shy of the league record. Add in an efficient night shooting the basketball, and this was an excellent finish to the season for Nembhard. While he played well enough to earn a standard contract, the expected return of Kyrie Irving limits Nembhard’s fantasy value in 2026-27, in both redraft and dynasty leagues.

Flagg sprained his left ankle early in the second quarter of Sunday’s regular-season finale. With nothing to play for, the rookie’s debut campaign has come to a disappointing end. Thanks to a late-season flourish, Flagg is the betting favorite to win Rookie of the Year honors, with college teammate Kon Knueppel also in the mix. Flagg lived up to his fourth-round ADP, and he’s likely to go earlier in drafts next fall.

Both bigs were initially doubtful for this game, and they have now officially been ruled out. Moussa Cissé and Dwight Powell should fill the minutes at center for the season finale.

Counting Sunday, Washington missed four straight and seven of the Mavericks’ final eight games of the season. The veteran forward appeared in 56 games, averaging 14.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 steals, 1.1 blocks and 1.4 three-pointers. Washington has averaged at least one steal and one blocked shot in each of his two full seasons with the Mavericks. Somehow under contract through 2029-30, Washington will remain a key cog in Dallas’ rotation but has essentially settled in as a fringe fantasy starter.

Marshall’s 2025-26 season has come to a disappointing end, as he missed the Mavericks’ final three games. The forward made 74 appearances this season, averaging 15.2 points, 4.7 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.1 steals per game, which were all career-highs. He’s under contract for 2026-27 at $9.4 million and should remain a nice reserve for the Mavericks with occasional fantasy value when injuries hit.

While Booker, Brooks and O’Neale are sitting for injury-management reasons, Allen is out with a left hamstring injury he sustained during Friday’s loss to the Lakers.

Sunday’s game won’t impact anything beyond draft lottery odds, so the Mavericks are likely to put out a rotation that lacks most of the team’s proven players.

Ighodaro has reached double figures in rebounds twice in his last six appearances. The second-year center played 21 minutes off the bench on Friday, finishing two points shy of a double-double.

O’Neale came off the bench on Friday, and his role may have become more important due to Grayson Allen’s hamstring injury. Allen, who went down during the second quarter, is expected to undergo imaging on Saturday to determine the severity of the injury. If he has to miss time, O’Neale’s role takes on added importance because of what he can bring to the table as a three-point shooter and defender.

The only Suns starter to play more than 21 minutes on Friday was Ryan Dunn (one point, two rebounds, one assist and one steal), who logged 28. Brooks played 21 minutes, checking out for good during the third quarter. With the Suns locked into their seed for the postseason and Grayson Allen (hamstring) going down during the second quarter of Friday’s game, it would be unsurprising if the team rested Brooks and its other key players ahead of Tuesday’s Play-In game against the Trail Blazers or the Clippers.

Flagg struggled in Wednesday’s loss to Phoenix, but he was able to get back on track in this game. Though they were on the wrong side of the scoreboard once again, Flagg was able to have another monster scoring performance to help strengthen his Rookie of the Year campaign. Flagg has been a fantasy star in his first season in the league, and he’ll continue to be one of the best players in fantasy basketball for the next 15 years. Whether or not he wins Rookie of the Year isn’t going to change that. He should be considered one of the most valuable players in dynasty leagues.
