Risacher and Gueye started Sunday’s game but did not see any action during the second quarter. Neither player returned for the start of the third, and their respective regular seasons have concluded. Both will be available for Wednesday’s play-in tournament matchup with Orlando. Risacher finished with six points, two rebounds, one block and two three-pointers in 10 minutes, with Gueye tallying three points, four rebounds and one three-pointer in seven minutes. Jacob Toppin and Vit Krejci started the third quarter.

Boucher last played on February 26, and he’ll end the season with averages of 10 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.4 triples in 17.2 minutes per game. He’ll be an unrestricted free agent this summer and could end up leaving Toronto despite being with the team since 2018.

The Rockets will use their preferred starting lineup despite already holding the second seed in the West. Rockets coach Ime Udoka said during his pregame availability that the starters will take on their usual workloads, which is excellent news for fantasy managers in active leagues who have any of them rostered.

It appears that Curry’s thumb injury won’t stop him from playing against the Clippers on Sunday. The Warriors guard will look to finish on a high note in the extremely competitive Western Conference to help his team avoid the play-in tournament.

The Knicks secured the third seed in the East before Sunday’s game, so there isn’t anything on the line besides Bridges’s games-played streak. He logged six seconds before intentionally fouling a Nets player, with Landry Shamet replacing him in the lineup. Bridges, whose NBA games-played streak is 556, has not missed a game since high school. He’ll be ready for the Knicks’ first-round matchup with the Pistons next weekend.

Tucker is set to make his first start of the season for the shorthanded Knicks. The 3-and-D forward will likely be asked to carry a heavy workload in the final regular season, but there’s no telling how productive he’ll be given that he’s averaging 1.5 points through two appearances in 2024-25.

Mitchell, Robinson, Jaquez and Highsmith are the replacements, with the first two being especially valuable to fantasy managers in active leagues seeking value on the waiver wire.

Claxton is back after sitting out Friday’s loss to the Timberwolves. While Precious Achiuwa should be a good matchup for him, fantasy managers in active leagues should assume Claxton will not log starters’ minutes in the regular-season finale. Johnson, Watford and Wilson offer decent fantasy ceilings for Sunday’s loaded schedule.

Cunningham, who was listed as probable until 30 minutes before this game started, was downgraded to questionable and then ruled out shortly after. The East standings are already set, so Cunningham wouldn’t have played much if he was available. Marcus Sasser will start in his place for the regular season finale.

Cade Cunningham and Ausar Thompson are out for Sunday’s regular-season finale, and they’ve been replaced in the lineup by Sasser and Holland. Both youngsters are worth the risk in active deep leagues, as regulars Hardaway, Harris and Duren are unlikely to play starters’ minutes. Also, Paul Reed is worth a dice roll since Isaiah Stewart is unavailable.

Maxey, who has been sidelined since early March, should be ready for the start of next season, but it’s going to be a little while before he returns to playing basketball. Maxey’s season has been over for a while, and the 76ers aren’t going to play in the postseason, so this won’t have any immediate impact. However, it appears that his finger injury is fairly severe, since it’ll end up being close to three months off before he returns to basketball activities.

The Bucks are holding out Ryan Rollins, Taurean Prince, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Brook Lopez from Sunday’s regular-season finale, as their playoff seeding has been determined. Kuzma is the lone holdover, and it’s likely safe to assume that he will not play starters’ minutes. Green is the safest bet of the four replacements for fantasy managers in active leagues seeking streamers.

The Hawks and Magic will meet again in Orlando in a play-in tournament matchup, and Sunday’s result will not change that. Wallace, Mann and Barlow move into the starting five, filling in for Trae Young, Dyson Daniels and Onyeka Okongwu. Also, don’t expect Risacher to take on a full starters’ workload ahead of Tuesday’s rematch.

Sunday’s game has no impact on Detroit’s playoff seeding, so Cunningham’s listing as probable on the initial injury report was surprising. He’s been downgraded to questionable; even if Cade plays, fantasy managers in active leagues should not expect to see him play starters’ minutes. Expect to see a lot of Marcus Sasser in Milwaukee.

Smith was a late addition to the injury report on Sunday morning, but a headache won’t keep him out of the lineup for the regular season finale. Nikola Vucevic is playing and will start, but he may not play many minutes. Smith will split most of the center minutes with Zach Collins, unless Billy Donovan opts to play Vucevic more than he should in a meaningless game.

While the Trail Blazers have not reached the postseason in Billups’ four seasons as head coach, the team made strides during the 2024-25 campaign. A six-game winning streak that began in late January provided some optimism that the team could remain in the play-in tournament conversation, but injuries short-circuited those hopes. Billups’ contract for the 2025-26 season was not guaranteed, which changes with Sunday’s reported decision by team management.

McConnell will come off the bench for this game, but they should still play significant roles.

Grimes is available after sitting out Friday’s loss to the Hawks. He can be a significant asset to fantasy managers in active leagues if he can approach his average of 35.6 minutes per game over his last five appearances. Given how well Grimes has played for the 76ers, he’s undoubtedly worth the risk.

The only starter that will be the same as Friday is da Silva. KCP and WCJ sat on Friday but will surprisingly suit up in the inconsequential season finale. With a Play-In matchup with the Hawks coming in just a couple days, it’s unclear how much KCP and WCJ will play. Black will replace the injured Cory Joseph in the starting lineup, with Isaac getting his first start of the season. Gary Harris, Caleb Houstan and Goga Bitadze will come off the bench after starting on Friday, though Houstan and Bitadze should still play significant roles.
