Kalkbrenner posted eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one block over 18 minutes during Tuesday's 117-86 win over the Nets.

Kalkbrenner continues to play a backup role, which, to this point has yielded very little in terms of fantasy production. In 14 appearances over the past month, he has barely been a top-200 player, averaging 6.9 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game. At best, he can be streamed for blocks when the schedule works in his favor.

Bridges totaled 19 points (7-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals across 24 minutes during Tuesday's 117-86 win over Brooklyn.

Bridges posted a strong all-around line after failing to tally either a block or steal in four consecutive games. He shot the basketball with efficiency on the offensive end and set a new season high in steals. Bridges is averaging 15.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steals over his last four appearances.

Booker recorded 34 points (8-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 16-19 FT), seven assists, three rebounds and one steal across 36 minutes in Tuesday's 115-111 loss to the Magic.

Booker followed his 36-point performance in Monday's win over Memphis with another huge scoring outburst in the second leg of this back-to-back set. However, he needed a season-high 16 makes from the charity stripe to reach 30 points Tuesday, whereas he didn't get to the line at all Monday. The star guard also chipped in a team-high seven assists and has dished out at least five dimes in seven straight games.

Rollins produced 24 points (8-14 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 123-99 win over Dallas.

Rollins posted a strong all-around line and led the Bucks in points and assists in the blowout victory. The 23-year-old didn't appear to be slowed down at all by the hip injury that kept him from taking the floor Sunday. Rollins has put up 20-plus points in three of his last five matchups and should continue to see opportunities with the first unit as Milwaukee wraps up the regular season with little to play for.

Sasser has been ruled out for the remainder of Tuesday's game against the Raptors due to a right hip injury. He'll finish the night with eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt) and one assist in eight minutes.

Sasser was ruled out with only a few minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, so his absence shouldn't have much of an impact. The severity of the injury is unclear at this time, and he can be considered day-to-day until more information comes to light.

Suggs supplied 20 points (6-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), eight rebounds, seven assists and four steals across 38 minutes in Tuesday's 115-111 win over the Suns.

Suggs turned in a well-rounded performance Tuesday and was Orlando's second-leading scorer, reaching the 20-point mark for the first time since March 12. He also finished third on the team in rebounds and second in assists. Additionally, the 24-year-old point guard made an impact on the defensive end, finishing one swipe shy of tying his season high. Suggs has been inconsistent on the offensive end of late, scoring in double figures in four of his last seven games while reaching the 15-point threshold just once.

Hachimura won't start Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

With Luka Doncic back from his one-game suspension, Hachimura will retreat to the second unit. The 28-year-old forward has averaged 6.2 points and 2.2 rebounds across 20.6 minutes per game in his last five appearances off the bench.

Williamson agreed to a 10-day contract with the Grizzlies on Tuesday.

Williamson will provide much-needed backcourt depth for Memphis down the stretch of the regular season, as the team has shut down a number of key contributors for the rest of the campaign due to injuries. The 27-year-old has appeared in 46 games in the G League this year across stops with the Memphis Hustle and the Windy City Bulls, averaging 7.2 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.1 steals in 23.7 minutes per contest.

Ellis won't start Tuesday's game against the Lakers.

With Jarrett Allen (knee) back in the lineup for the second leg of this back-to-back, Ellis will slide to the second unit. He has averaged 7.0 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.2 steals in 23.6 minutes per game over his last five appearances off the bench.

James (foot) is available for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers, Trevor Lane of LakersNation.com reports.

It was thought that James could get Tuesday night off for injury maintenance, but the star forward will suit up after all. James is fresh off a triple-double Monday night against Washington, as he finished with 21 points, 10 rebounds, 12 assists and one block in 33 minutes.
