Dennis Schroder is Ruled Out for Game 4 on Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Dennis Schroder (illness) has been downgraded to out ahead of Monday's Game 4 against the New York Knicks. Schroder was a late addition to the injury report due to an illness. It will ultimately force him to miss this game and possibly the rest of this series with the Cavs down 3-0 in the series. His absence will likely mean increased playing time for Keon Ellis. Schroder wasn't playing a ton this series anyway. Ellis might play minutes in the teens, but that likely won't be enough to warrant looking at him as a DFS option.

Nets Could Trade Michael Porter Jr.
Brooklyn Nets forward Michael Porter Jr. could be on his way out of town after one season with the organization. The Nets don't own their first-round pick next season. With that being said, the organization might need to think of creative ways to get some young star power onto this roster. One theory is that the Nets could potentially move Porter to a win-now organization such as the Oklahoma City Thunder in exchange for Jalen Williams. Porter has developed into a legitimate All-Star player and could get the Nets a decent haul, assuming they're willing to trade him. Last season, Porter averaged 24.2 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 3.0 assists across 32.5 minutes per game in 52 contests. He could help a win-now organization right now, while the Nets could score a young player to help them during this rebuild.

Ajay Mitchell is Ruled Out for Game 5
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Ajay Mitchell (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's Game 5 against the San Antonio Spurs. Mitchell moved into the starting five for Game 3 of this series with Jalen Williams (hamstring) ruled out. He joined Williams on the sideline when he suffered a right calf strain and missed Game 4. Now, Mitchell is in danger of missing his second straight game due to this calf issue. Cason Wallace started in Game 4, but didn't bring much to the stat sheet. He'll likely start again in Game 5 with Williams listed as questionable for this game. Wallace could offer some low-end DFS value, but he isn't an ideal target.

Jalen Williams is Tagged as Questionable for Game 5
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's Game 5 against the San Antonio Spurs. Williams hasn't suited up for a game since re-aggravating his hamstring injury during Game 2 of this series. The team will likely wait and see how Wililams' feels closer to game-time before making a final decision on his status. Jared McCain and Cason Wallace would be in line for extended playing time again, assuming Williams misses his third straight contest. Neither player is an exciting DFS option, but McCain might be the better of the two because of his scoring ability.
