Hello and welcome to the Locked On Fantasy Basketball Podcast brought to you by Basketball Monster. My name is Josh Lloyd and I always, always have my camera off when I'm lying to the media and discussing things with Joe. Oh, sorry, it's Joe Dumas, Joe Dumas, Joe Dumas. Sorry, it's off again. I just, I can't, I don't know how to fix the button. There we go, we're here. We're here, brought to you by FanDuel. Get in on all the NFL action all season long with FanDuel. Get started at fanduel.com.

What are we talking about? Yeah, it's Sunday. So we're previewing Sunday's games across the league. We're talking about what we're watching for, streaming for each category, streaming for points leagues. Some scheduled things. That's what we all do. Don't forget, sub it up. Dumb, dumb, dumb, thumb, thumbs, subs, comments, double banks. Do all that stuff, joshloodfantasy.com as well, for merch and for player voting and for JLFB bowl results. It's all over there. Shall we just dig straight in here and look at what I am watching for on Sunday outside of the league winning, game winning moves, maybe. I want to see what's going on with Chris Dunn because the last few games, there was a foul trouble game involved in that, but the last couple of games, the minutes have been down.

With Max Strus around with the return maybe coming of Brandon Ingram, are we seeing Dunn start to lose that 30-minute role? Because as soon as he's a 24-minute guy, he's done. That's it. We're out. That was pun unintended. We're out on him in 12s in that sort of scenario.

I want to see Brice Sensabaugh because his minutes pushed way up in the last game. Do I firmly believe in that? Not really. But it happened. So we see if he's a 28-minute player, that is interesting for scoring purposes mainly, but it's interesting. CJ McCollum was very good in the last game. We don't know where the Kingston Fleming's is going to be available, but he also struggling in a big way. So does CJ go back from a 24-minute player to a 27-minute player, which really does back-end solidify his value? And then what is happening with Jalen Green? Last game he played fewer minutes than Colin Gillespie. He has been 20 to 24 minutes, three consecutive games for Jalen. That is a trend.

Is he a drop? Yeah. Do people think that he'll go to New Orleans and his value will improve? I don't. I don't even think he'd start in New Orleans. I think he'd come off the bench and then have to fight with Poole and Matheran and those sort of guys and Bay.

I don't think that they'd want him over Herb Jones, to be honest. But of course, it is your mate, Joe Dumas, Mr. Zoom camera off Legend.

So maybe, but yeah, anyway, it's getting pretty rough for Jalen Green at the moment. We'll see whether Gillespie is able to continue to play the similar amount of minutes or even more minutes, which is what happened in the last game.

Injuries. Where are we at with that? Okay. Well, again, all these injuries are updated every 15 minutes across the NBA. So Aaron Neesmith is questionable. Timothy John McConnell is probable for the Pacers. You're going to have no boner for the Sixers. Now, I don't know if we got any updates exactly on what they're doing on the back to back. Yeah, they did. So this happened. So I had Embiid as doubtful, LeBron as probable. And Embiid is in fact not playing and LeBron is in, which means Embiid should play Monday and LeBron probably sits on Monday, would be my guess. For the Lakers, Luka, no official status on him, but it does look like that he's escaped any significant injury with his ankle. So I'm labeling him as probable.

Austin Reeves, no update there on him. I think he's probably leaning a little bit more towards doubtful. He did not practice. Colin Sexton did practice, I'm putting him questionable. And Quentin Grimes thinks that he will be available. So if Reeves is out and Grimes does play, then we are okay with streaming in Grimes and seeing what happens. No update yet on Brandon Miller. There is a chance that he plays. We haven't seen the Hornets play for a couple of days, so maybe he's available. I don't expect Ingram or Conan Niederhäuser to be available for the Clippers. Jackson Hayes hurt his knee in the last game. If he is out, then we are looking at Mo Bamba because Nerkic is still out. And then Darren Peterson asked out towards the end of the game a couple of times on Friday. He thinks that he's fine. Again, we don't always believe players. I'm just putting Peterson as a questionable tag. Scott Barnes has been upgraded to questionable for the Raptors and what that does for now, Colin Murray Boyles will be something that we do need to see.
