Cunningham (chest) was present for Wednesday's morning shootaround, Hunter Patterson of The Athletic reports.

This isn't anything to overreact to, but it's a good sign for Detroit to see Cunningham on the floor after a scary injury update a few weeks ago. He remains listed as questionable to face the Bucks on Wednesday, though he's likely to have restrictions if he's cleared to play.

Thompson supplied 17 points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 8-10 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 30 minutes during Tuesday's 124-104 loss to the Timberwolves.

Thompson has been one of several role players who have been experiencing an uptick in playing time for the Pacers, but he hasn't done much with increased minutes. He's started in four of his last five appearances dating back to March 29, but he's averaging just 10.4 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.4 assists on 26.2 minutes per game over that stretch. He might merit some consideration in deep formats because he's been starting regularly, but he doesn't carry a ton of fantasy upside overall.

Hyland provided 19 points (5-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 124-104 victory over the Pacers.

Hyland was sharp with his shot and looked excellent as a playmaker, ending just three assists away from what would've been his first double-double of the season. Hyland has logged over 20 minutes in all but one of his last 11 appearances off the bench and is making the most with that playing time, averaging 15.5 points, 2.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.1 steals per game over that stretch.

Reid supplied 17 points (7-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and two steals across 24 minutes during Tuesday's 124-104 victory over the Pacers.

Reid has been putting up solid numbers off the bench, and he remains a viable fantasy alternative despite his second-unit role in the Timberwolves' frontcourt. Since returning from a two-game absence due to a sprained right ankle March 22, Reid is averaging 12.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.1 blocks and 1.6 three-pointers made across 26.8 minutes per game. Those numbers aren't close to the prime of his career, but he remains a solid, reliable option to start in most formats.

Holmgren ended Tuesday's 123-87 victory over the Lakers with 15 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds, two blocks and two steals across 22 minutes.

The double-double was his 23rd of the season, giving Holmgren three more games to produce one more and establish a new career high. The 23-year-old big man had gone six straight games without pulling down double-digit boards coming into Tuesday, as his court time keeps getting trimmed in blowout wins. Over 12 contests since returning from an illness in early March, Holmgren is averaging 15.3 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.6 blocks, 1.1 threes, 1.0 assists and 0.9 steals in 26.9 minutes.

Poole closed Tuesday's 156-137 win over Utah with 34 points (12-23 FG, 7-16 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 32 minutes.

Zion Williamson, Saddiq Bey and Herbert Jones were all active Tuesday, but none of them saw the floor. Poole, who has been used sparingly in recent weeks, may get an extended look in the final two games of the regular season as the Pelicans have nothing to play for.

Queen recorded 17 points (6-9 FG, 5-6 FT), 12 rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and three steals over 37 minutes during Tuesday's 156-137 win over the Jazz.

With Zion Williamson, Saddiq Bey and Herbert Jones all sitting out despite being healthy, Queen entered the starting lineup and nearly put up a triple-double. The Pelicans have nothing on the line in the final two games of the regular season, so Queen may get another extended look or two.

DiVincenzo totaled 11 points (4-12 FG, 3-10 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 124-104 victory over the Pacers.

DiVincenzo left his mark in this comfortable win over the Pacers, but he had a rough shooting performance. The veteran guard has been trending in the wrong direction despite having a starting role all but secured in the Timberwolves' backcourt. He has failed to clear the 15-point plateau in five straight games, a stretch in which he's averaging 9.6 points, 2.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game while shooting just 32.6 percent from three-point range.

Peavy chipped in 20 points (9-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Tuesday's 156-137 victory over the Jazz.

Zion Williamson, Saddiq Bey and Herbert Jones all dressed but did not see the floor for the Pelicans. Peavy made the most of his spot start, and it will be interesting to see if the Pelicans use a similar rotation for the final two games with nothing to play for.

Powell finished with 11 points (4-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over 40 minutes during Tuesday's 96-90 victory over the Bucks.

Powell had a woeful shooting performance, making just 25 percent of his attempts, and while his fantasy line was far from eye-popping, he managed to contribute in each of the five major categories. Powell has started every game he's been available for the Nets since March 9. However, his averages of 8.4 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game aren't particularly impressive, especially since he's also shooting 38.4 percent from the floor in that span.
