Coulibaly will return following a five-game absence, which could result in Bub Carrington moving to the bench. Even if he’s not running with the first unit, Carrington has played well enough as of late to see significant minutes off the bench.

Labissière logged three appearances with the Kings last season, and he’s spent this season with Washington’s G League affiliate, the Capitol City Go-Go. The big man has performed well in the G League, and he could earn some rotational minutes behind Alex Sarr until Marvin Bagley and Tristan Vukcevic are back on the court. Labissière isn’t a player to target on the waiver wire.

Hachimura recorded one of his best games of January, scoring over 20 points for the first time since early November. The points came from efficient jump shooting and strong contributions from the three-point line. And although Hachimura didn’t make much noise in any other areas of the game, his scoring output on Monday should serve as another encouraging sign that the seventh-year forward has found his rhythm on offense again, having now totaled 40 points over the past two games. His production will be useful for the Lakers going forward, as they look to extend their winning streak to three games on Wednesday against the Cavaliers.

James played a solid game on Monday. He scored above his season average and was solid on the glass. His assist total was lower than usual, however, which brought down his fantasy production. While James has slowed down some in his 23rd NBA season, he’s still a reliable performer on a nightly basis, with the potential to contribute consistently across most statistical categories.

Dončić followed a very strong performance against the Mavericks with another stellar one on Monday. He was outstanding in the win over Chicago, as he led Los Angeles in points, rebounds, assists and three-pointers. The Bulls had no answer for the superstar guard, who picked apart Chicago’s defense in various ways. The cherry on top for fantasy managers who roster Dončić was that he recorded only three turnovers. The Lakers have now put together back-to-back wins and Dončić has been a big reason why.

Tuesday’s game will be the sixth that Vukčević has missed due to a strained left hamstring. While his absence does not affect fantasy basketball, it does leave the Wizards down two bigs since Marvin Bagley III (back) is also out. Anthony Gill played seven minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Hornets. He is not worth streaming.

Middleton sat out Saturday’s loss to the Hornets with a sore left foot, with rookie Will Riley playing 23 minutes as his replacement in the starting lineup. While Riley should have value during the silly season, Justin Champagnie is the preferred streamer if Middleton remains out. Despite coming off the bench, Champagnie logged 32 minutes on Saturday.

Coulibaly has missed Washington’s last five games with a lower back strain, resulting in Bub Carrington moving into the starting lineup. While he may be pushed back to the bench if Coulibaly returns on Tuesday, Carrington will still play plenty.

Tuesday’s game is the third straight that Bagley has missed, with the last two being due to a strained lower back. With Tristan Vukčević (hamstring) also out, Anthony Gill may pick up a few rotation minutes off the bench. He is not worth streaming.

LaRavia will shed his questionable tag and play through his left quad contusion. He should remain in the starting lineup, with Rui Hachimura supporting him off the bench and picking up additional minutes if LaRavia is limited.

LaRavia, who’s been a fixture in the starting lineup since the end of December, is dealing with a left quad contusion. If he’s unable to play against the Bulls, that opens the door for Rui Hachimura to start for the first time since going down with a strained calf last month.

The good news for fantasy managers is that Ayton reached double digits in rebounds for the fourth time in his last seven appearances. That should take some of the sting out of the poor shooting. Over his previous two games, Ayton has shot 6-of-21 from the field, so it may be fair to question whether the left eye injury suffered in Denver on Tuesday is still an issue. As long as Ayton can provide increased production as a rebounder, the shooting should not be too much of a problem.

James filled the stat sheet, so there was some value to be had despite the limited scoring. Since the beginning of the month, he’s only had two games in which he’s failed to score at least 20 points. And over the past two weeks, James has offered top-20 value in eight-cat formats. The Lakers play four games in Week 15 with no back-to-backs, starting with Monday’s game against the Bulls in Chicago.

Playing in Dallas for the second time since being traded last January, Dončić helped lead the Lakers’ comeback. He finished two rebounds shy of a triple-double, and a charge taken on Naji Marshall with just under 42 seconds remaining sealed the game. Over the past two weeks, Dončić has been the top-ranked player in eight-cat formats. The Lakers continue their road trip in Chicago on Monday, the first of four games they’ll play in Week 15.

Sarr wasn’t particularly efficient with 24 points on 19 field goal attempts, but he did lead the Wizards in scoring on Saturday. The 20-year-old center has been excellent on the defensive end, though, as he recorded at least one steal and at least one block for the third consecutive game. Sarr has provided eighth-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Wizards have a four-game week coming up, beginning against the Trail Blazers on Tuesday.

Khris Middleton missed Saturday’s game with a foot injury with Will Riley replacing him in the starting lineup. Champagnie outplayed Riley, though, and ended up playing more minutes off the bench. The 24-year-old shooting guard had a double-double with 15 points and 11 rebounds in 32 minutes. Champagnie has provided eighth-round per game value over the last two weeks, showing he has some fantasy value in the sixth man role with the Wizards.

Riley moves into the starting lineup with Khris Middleton (foot) out. The 19-year-old forward is making the first start of his career. According to the Wizards, this is the youngest starting lineup in NBA history with an average age of 20.64 years old.

Middleton was listed as questionable initially, but has since been ruled out with left foot soreness. In his absence, Justin Champagnie could slide into the starting lineup with Will Riley picking up rotation minutes off the bench.
